SYMPHONY DRIVE
REPORT DUE TODAY
Solicitors to Hear Result
Of Campaign at Final
Meeting.

The hundreds Of volunteer solicitors
who have worked since February %
to raise a sustaining fund of 100000
to assure the l938-39 season of the
National Symphony Orchestra were to
learn today whether their combined
efforts have been successful.
The fate of the orchestra hinged on
the final reports to be made by the
workers at the last report meeting of
the campaign at 1890 pm. in the
Carlton Hotel. If the total amount
is raised, the orchestra's eighth sue
cessive season will be assured. If the
contributions fall short. the National
Symphony Orchestra Association will
discontinue its sponsorship of the
symphony, return donations and dis
band.
Up until noon yesterday, total of
$90,440 had been reported by various
committees-an increase of approx
mately $4,000 over the figure reported
March Z, originally the closing date of
the drive. This left more than $4,000
to be raised
During the last week. efforts have
been redoubled to put the campaign
over the top. An impromptu commit
tee Of nearly 800 workers was organized
after the orchestra's concert a week
ago Sunday under the leadership of
Earl Nash. This group, combined with
the newspaper and radio appeal last
Wednesday. has accounted for approx
imately $4,000 of the increase in the
fund
Letters received at campaign head
quarters revealed that newsboys were
soliciting subscriptions on their routes,
office workers were canvassing fellow
employees, housewives were making
house-to-house campaigns in their
own neighborhoods, and school chill
dren were lending their aid in the
fund-raising drive.
In letter typical of number re-
celved Miss Anna F. Rose, principal of
Chevy Chase Elementary School, sent
contribution of s3152, explaining
that large part of the donation was
earned by children or saved from their
allowances They raked leaves,
wiped dishes, ran errands, swept floors,
busted, ETC."

Moate wants to move to Driftwood, but
deferred that until the school term

life, but not in the direction the girl
had planned to 60.
Dorothy explained to her parents
that she wanted job and thought she
might be able to get one in Wilson.

CASH DIVIDENDS FOR SAFE DRIVING

The careful motorist is to be financial
ly rewarded for safe driving, according to
an announcement from the National Bu-
reau of Casualty and Surety Underwriters.
In the past, motorists have paid the
same price, based upon the accident ex-
perience in the localities where they live
and the type of car they drive, for Automo-
bile Bodily Injury and Property Damage
Liability Insurance This has penalized the
careful motorist-though he might oper-
ate his ear year after year without mis-
hap. his insurance cost him as much as it
did the driver who was periodically in
volved in accidents. Now member COM
panies of the National Bureau have decided
to write insurance on an entirely new
basis.
The new basis is the "safe driver re-
ward PLAN which guarantees to automo-
bile policyholders a Is per cent return of
their annual premium provided no claims
are brought under policies during the IL
months after the effective date of the plan
The reward will be payable thirty days
after the expiration of the policy year
through the agent or broker. All private
automobiles covered with bodily injury
and property damage insurance by the
member companies will be eligible, with
the exception of those who are subject to
the automobile fleet plan, the experience
rating plan. or some other special plan
It win be highly interesting to watch
the effects of this new plan on the accident
rate. Under it. to drive safely means that
you are directly putting hard cash dollars
in your pocket. as well as preventing acct
dents.

WORLDS RAREsT STAMP

The most valuable bit of paper in the
world today was only worth one cent in
1856, when it was printed as one of a small
issue of postage stamps by British Guiana,
N South America. The colony had run out
of regular stamps furnished by the British
government, and printed small number
for use until new supply arrived.
Only one stamp of that issue is now
known to- exist, and it is owned by the
widow of the late Arthur NJ. Hind of Utica,
NY, who accumulated the most valuable
collection of stamps ever known Hind paid
$50, 500 for it in 1922, andsit is now valued
at $4,000 Afosaas
The stamp was first identified as a rar-
ity in 1878, when 14-year-old boy found
it on an old family letter and sold it for
six shillings to local collector, who later
disposed of it as a part of a collection
which brought him $500
It next passed into the hands of Count
Ferrari, Europe's greatest collector, who
paid $3.50 for it. When his collection was
sold, Hind bought the Guiana stamp for
the record breaking price mentioned, and
offered to give it as present to King
George v of Great Britain, who was an
enthusiastic stamp collector, but the king
could not see his way to accept it. sse-ss
A small part of the Hind collection
was sold at auction in London recently,
when less than dozen of the rarest stamps
brought total of 100000 in one days
sale.
Other portions of the collection, in
Guiding the British Guiana stamp, rarest
of all, will be offered for sale shortly by
Kinds widow, who, by the way, is now
Mrs. Pascal Costa Scala, she having been
married to a salesman who met her when
he called to sell a monument for her for
mer husbands grave.
