 Committees
NEW HAVEN IN LEAD

A meeting of district chairmen is to be called next week by Mayor Hayes to receive reports on the progress made toward collecting Waterbury's quota of $2,500 for the national democratic finance committee.

It is expected that Mayor Hayes. chair man of the committee, will soon name a definite date for final re- ports. The success of the drive was temporarily halted owing to the bank holiday, but there Is every indication that this city will con- tribute its quota.
 The New Haven district has taken state honors from Water bury and Bridgeport. having col- lected nearly $6,500 of the amount regarded as Connecticut's quota.
 Several local districts have a1- ready received donations or pledges amounting to $125. which is a district quota. Special plans will be considered unless the $2,50e is within sight when Mayor Hayes arranges for the get-together dur ing the coming week.
 The money is intended to meet the financial obligations of the na- tional democratic party in electing President Roosevelt and giving the United States new deal. Public confidence and enthusiasm have been so stimulated within the past week by the presidents drastic actions effecting a definite turn for the better in economic events that the campaign is expected to close shortly with the full quota realized.
