slightly in excess of 100000 persons
were listed as contributors.
Work without Pay.
Men and women whose time would
be unpurchaseable under any other
circumstances have left their business
and other obligations to give, without
pay, long hours to Chest work. The
annual campaign enlists the aid Of
approximately 5000 volunteers, and
the earnest work of these people has
reduced the cost Of financing social
welfare work from an average Of from
IS to 80 per cent under separate
campaigns to 6 per cent under Chest
methods of one campaign a year.
Practically every city Of importance
in the country now finances portion,
or substantially all of its voluntary
welfare services. through a plan of
federated finance, except New York
City, where emergency appeals of a
joint nature have been conducted for
the past three years." President Kel-
logg says. Councils of social agencies
for the coordination Of existing social
services and more effective planning
of community welfare programs are
found today in most of the important
cities.
Chest campaigns for 1929 were the
last ones unaffected by the depres-
sion. The total raised for that year
was s72, ,000 The all-time peak
for Community Chests was the amount
raised for 1932-s101,1 1872, ,000 This
figure included substantial sum for
relief work, which was afterward
taken over by public agencies. De-
spite the depression, the amount raised
in 1884 was s70,639 .844; and the re-
suits of the campaigns so far held for
1885 indicate that the total for 1885
will be substantially the same as 1t
was for 1884. Five-sixths Of the cam
paigns for 1885 were held in the Fall
Of 1884, the-remainder being sched-
uled for the Winter and Spring
months OF 1895.
"The depression caused SO cities in
the United States to follow the Chest
plan of financing social work. The
largest Of these cities to adopt the
Chest plan since 1929 is Chicago"

taken by the board of county
commissioners yesterday after re-
ceiving a preliminary report show

In a letter sent to the board

The commissioners d declare d
they believed the more extensive
audit would show the shortage
to be in unclosed tax collection
accounts. or a bookkeeping error,
and. that all the county's funds
would be accounted for.
J. Forest Walker, Montgomery
county treasurer, declared his &C.
counts would balance under
thorough auditing, and although
he hao a number of unclosed &C.
counts on his records, he was
positive they would not total any
Sucr amount.
Edward Peter, counsel to the
Commissioners, explained that
the treasurer is charged with
taxes which should be collected
unless the properties involved
are advertised for sale. are IN
volved in pending leL IL suits or
are declared insolVent by the
commissioners.
Possible Explanation,
Mr.. Walker, who was not in
his office at the time the re-
port was made, declared 1t was
possible the auditors had gone
into the street assessments none
of which had been collected for
two years, and that there are a
number of tax sales in which
the county has bought up prop
erty and for which no insolvency
lists have been made up for
three years.
Mr.. Walker, one of the county's
most popular officials, declared
himself at a loss to explain the
shortage until he had been given
the opportunity to find out to
what the auditors had reference.

BARUCH GIVES
H|SREPLY To
= SEN. LONG
Financier, Before the Senate
Munitions Group, Tells
Of War Measures
international News Service

Bernard M. Baruch, wartime
chairman of the War Industries
Board, defended his character"
today before the Senate Munitions
Committee, and philosophically
discussed the problem of taking
the profits out of war.
At the outset, Mr.. Baruch took
cognizance of the recent attacks
on him by Senator Huey Long and
Father Charles A. Coughlin, and
presented files and papers which
disclosed his income taxes during
the war years. He had, he said,
nothing to conceal.
In 1917, the year the United
States entered the World War. he
said, he paid a tax of $263,762 on
an income of $617,061. In the
years of 1918 and 1919, he re-
vealed, he paid no tax, because
his losses of those years were
greater than his income.
Nobody Won War
Mr.. Baruch was alternately in
dignant over the "innuendoeS and
insinuations" against his war.
time activities, and philosophical
about the way to take the profits
out of war.
He believed that when war
comes the President should be
empowered to establish price
ceiling" on everything.
Nobody won the last war, he
said, from an economic stand
point. -
"The winners lost-the losers =,
lost. There was no winner"
The committee, of which Sena.
tor Nye (RO of North Dakota, is
chairman, is considering the prob
lem of taking the profits out Of
war;"
Mr.. Baruch declared at the out
set that the question Of his fit
ness to pass an opinion on war
time profits lay in a test of his
character, and his record as chair

Americas Problem
He said:
ut seems to me that the
course to follow is to plunge at
once into that subject, so that
you may put an end to the
insinuatiOnS and innuendOeS,
the existence Of which I would
be childish to deny, or that
you find me guilty of violation
of the trust and confidence
imposed upon me during that
WAR period"
The most important problem
before the American Government
today, Mr.. Baruch said, is to
clearly define its position of neu-
trality in the event of war
abroad.
Testifying on munitions, Mr..
Baruch said:
ut is essential for this Gov
ernment, because of the present
disturbed condition of the
world, to define clearly our neu-
trality, to regulate the flow Of
munitions, to establish contra
band. to explain the limitation
on travel right which we may
wish to impose upon ourselves;

He explained:
"SOme members say they have

Temporarily laying aside this
provision, which allows individuals
to buy annuity insurance policies
from the Federal Government, the
committee today considered un-
