F[Y|NGSQUADRONS
F0RMEDFOR CHEST
Will Attack $500, 900 Short
age in Drive for Goal
of $1,969, 900.

"Flying squadrons" will swing into
full action today to help wipe out the
$500 900 shortage in the Community
Chest campaign.
Composed of some of the most
successful solicitors in the Chest Or
ganization, these squadrons have been
formed as part of new system of
tactics" to take up the slack, in
crease old subscriptions and inject
new spirit into the fight.
The Chest goal of s1969 900 lacks
more than 80 per cent of being COM
plete. With only two more reports
ahead-Monday noon. and Tuesday
night-the Chest board of strategy"
is devising new ways and means of
attack on the problem. Campaign
Chairman Coleman Jennings and his
strategy board labored all day yes
terday and far into last night on
fresh war plans"
This board, consisting of the Chest
Campaign Committee and prominent
workers. agreed, according to an OFF,
cial announcement, that "one serious
drawback is the failure of the people
to realize that they are giving to
the support of IS organizations and
not to one agency, the Chest" Many
people. it was said, would give $40
to an individual agency for help,
carelessly toss the same amount to
Chest solicitor and consider that they
have done their duty, although they
could easily have given many times
the amount"
Obligations Realized.
Still others are realizing their
obligations, it was admitted. This
was demonstrated in typical letter
received yesterday. Il had worked
for the Chest and had read about
it." the writer said, "and thought I
knew somthing about it. had been
thinking of the Chest in terms of
one agency and thought my gift of
$50 was fairly generous. When I
realized that $50 is less than 81 per
year for each of the IS agencies, de-
cided that I ought to do more.
Il am inclosing a pledge for $3.50.
I cannot pay all now, but I can pay
it throughout the year. I am glad
to learn of this plan that may
share a little more generously with
those who need help"
In addition to the work of the
flying squadrons, solicitors in every
unit plan to resolicit those who have
decreased donations.
Workers of the Metropolitan Unit
and of the Special Assignments Unit
planned to work all day today. visit
ing people they have been unable to
reach at their homes during the
week.
Many churches will return to the
subject of the Chest. which was the
center of much ecclesiastical atten-
ton on last Community Chest Sun
day" From many pulpits. according
to pledges from the D. C. Federation
Of Churches, prayers will ascend to-
day in behalf of the Chest.
From Chest campaign headquarters
came last night another official
denial of the same old stories about
excessive overhead and high salaries
for the Community Chest staff"
This was aimed at "one Govern
mental department report that people
we're refusing to contribute to the
Chest because 80 per cent of the
money goes for overhead and ad-
ministration.'

death today in the isolated office Of
the Pure Coal Co., of which he was

slain by a robber who surprised him
in the ofiice, on a mountain near
Blakely Borough, and shot him twice
in the back.
There was no sign of q struggle
in the room. No weapon could be
found. Telephone wires leading to the
building had been cut.
Police examination disclosed Shu-
maker had q gold watch and $40 in
his pockets. This might strike at
the robbery theory, or indicate the
intruder fed without searching his
victim. A watchman found the body.
Fifteen minutes earlier, investiga-
tors said, an employe. Joseph Dash,

Deductions.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
DENVER, November 21.-Constitu-
tionality of the railway labor act, as
amended, was upheld by the Federal
Circuit Court of Appeals today.
The suit was brought by the Broth
erhood of Railway Shop Crafts Of
America, Rock Island system, against
trustees of the Chicago, Rock Island
g. Gulf Railway Co. and the Chicago
Rock Island g. Pacific. 1t involved
union dues deductions.
The act forbids railroads to deduct
union dues from eployes' wages.
The case was appealed from the
Kansas Federal District Court.
The company deducted dues from
pay envelopes until 1884, when it called
the unions attention to the provision
in the railway labor act, the suit said.
The union contended the amend
ment infringed upon the fifth amend
ment to the Constitution. The COM
pany notified the union it would maks
no more deductions unless ordered by
