AGENCIES
ASK AID IN DRIVES
Seek Same Status for So
= Iicitors as That Granted
Chest.

Use OF congressional action or presi-
Dental edict to force Federal depart
ment heads to give suburban welfare
agency collectors the same privileges
granted to Community Chest solicitors
during annual drives for funds was
threatened at the interfederation con-
ference last night.
The five agencies in nearby Mary
land and Virginia counties contend
residents of their sections, employed
by the Federal Government, should be
given opportunities to contribute to
their county charities when District
residents make donations to the Com
munity Chest, w. I. Cleveland. Mont
eomery County delegate, told the
conference.
In other words" Cleveland said.
"the drives of the five agencies and
the District should be conducted CO.
operatively so that when a Govern
.ment employe is solicited, he may
designate to whatever agency he wishes
his contribution to CO."
Orders from Congress or the White
House would force department and
bureau heads to give the suburban
collectors free access to all offices and
other privileges now limited to Com
munity Chest agents.
Cleveland declared all Federal en-
ployes, whether District or county res
idents are expected to make Chest
contributions during the annual can
.vass of Federal offices. A cooperative
drive, conducted by the Chest and the
suburban agencies. would permit the
employe to place his donation with
any desired agency, he said.
Cleveland, backed by William c
Hull, Arlington County, immediate
past president of the conference. saic
he would seek action through his rep
resentative in Congress If current
negotiation with the Community
Chest fails. If that does not succeed
he declared, he would seek an order
from the President.
The conference went on record op

AMERICAN SYSTEM
BEING UNDERMINED,
FRANK KNOX SAYS

CHAPEL HILL, Oct. l3-Open-
ing a onc-day campaign tour of
North Carolina, Col Frank Knox,
Republican vice-prcSidential can
didate, this morning declared that
the nations "ordcr of society" is
in danger, and urged voters to
forget party lines in the election
next month.
The course Of the present add
miniStratiOn in the past four years
has gone far to undermine the
American system, Col. Knox de-
clarcd, and the present election
is not matter Of political par
ties, but a matter of protecting
and maintaining the American
system against the disintcgration
that has already come to many
countries of the world.
He urged his audience to study
the record of the past four years
and decide for themselves what
sort Of economic system they
would like to preserve for the
state and the nation.
