May Mean Tax Raise.
Thinking people must realize" Mr..
Colladay said, that unless we meet
this need that has come upon our city
there is going to arise the necessity for
meeting it Witr public funds and that
this means increased taxes on all of our
homes. This fact alone If no other
consideration were involved. should re-
suit in more and larger gifts. But, more
than that, there is involved the question
of caring for the destitute and neg
lected, the little orphans, the aged who
have no place to go unless Chest funds
provide that place. the i'll and injured,
who would have no hospital attention
were it not for Chest funds
Il believe that If these facts are prop
erly presented to the people of Wash
ington they will give and give more. I
believe that those who have already
given, If properly apprised of this
situation, will use the emergency
pledge cards and contribute additional
amounts"
