mitted to lapse, lest Government be
forced to take an even larger part in
assistance, thereby removing the
sentiment and flneness" from the
work.
Randolph G. Bishop, campaign di-
rector of the Chest, explained that
pledges being accepted by the Metro
politan and Group Solicitation Units
before formal opening of the cam
paign, November 8, are not being
credited to the Advance Gifts Unit.
Mr.. Bishop said contributors ap-
preached by the former units can be
assured their pledges will be handed
back to the "key men" through
whom they normally would donate.
He pointed out the pre-campaign
activity of the Metropolitan and
Group Solicitation Units was being
conducted merely to get an early
start on the work of these groups.

Increased Pledges
Mark Chest Reports
On Advance Gifts
Some Are Several
Hundred Per Cent
Over Last Years

Increased pledges, ranging up to
several hundred per cent of last
years gifts, continued to feature re-
ports of the Community Chest Ad-
vance Gifts Unit yesterday, as the
volunteer solicitors held their Sec
ond luncheon meeting in the Will
lard Hotel.
Donations reported by the three
sections of the unit combined with
those recorded at the initial meeting
to total approximately 18 per cent
OF the I521 900 quota for this branch
of the Chest drive. Many increased
pledges also were announced by the
pre-campaign workers of the Metro
politan and Group Solicitation
Units.
The possibility that publication of
the names of persons making large
donations operates as disadvantage
rather than as a benefit in Com
munity Chest solicitation was sug-
gested by Assistant Secretary of
Commerce Edward j. Noble, princi-
pal speaker at the luncheon.
Il hate to see any class not given
recognition" Mr.. Noble declared in
pointing out a small gift may repre-
sent as much of a sacrifice to its
donor as does a large contribution
to a more prosperous person. He
added that he recognized the diff
culties Of altering established cam
paign procedure.
Capt. Wells Agrees.
Capt. Chester Wells, a member of
OF the Advance Gifts Unit. Joined
Mr.. Noble in pointing out some
large-scale contributors to charity
feel publication of their names lays
them open to approach by all types
of fund solicitors. Capt. Wells said
he had heard such objection at a
recent regional Boy Scout meeting
in Pittsburgh.
Mr.. Noble said the chief task of a
Community Chest campaign is to
convince citizens that "it is a privi-
lege to give and an obligation" and
that solicitors shouldn't be treated
like book agent or some one try
ing to sell something"
