SELECTED FOR
FUND DRIVE

Last Friday team chairmen and
go of their 90 workers were inspired
to go over the top in solicitation for
the 1910 campaign for the COmmun-
ity Fund at the Kick OFF luncheon.
! Fred FrOstic was chairman for the
meeting and introduced Nelson He'd
rick OF WyaRdotte and Warren Bow
of Detroit, as speakers.
Mr. Hedrick pointed out the value
of being a part of the Detroit set
up, the saving and high standards
which the metropolitan organization
maintains, the progress the Organiza-
ton has made In the % years it
has been functioning, and the service
which its agencies render. He told
many stories of cases he had re-
ferred 10 the agencies and of the
splendid cooperation he had had in
soivingA the many and perplexing
problems which he finds in his work.
Mr.. Hedrick also pointed out that
by our failure to give to the Fund
the support ut needs to effectively
carry on its work, we are letting die
an institution that is not only intrin-
sically democratic in aims and organ
ization, but is also a powerful agency
for preserving and spreading demOc-
racy in our community.
Mr.. Bow pointed out that the
Community Fund way is the Ameri-
can Way of giving. He contrasted
! the horror of the situation in Europe
with our own peaceful community
In Metropolitan Detroit our foreign
born are learning to adapt them
selves to new ways of living and are
living in harmony with those who
were their enemies In the Old Coun-
try. We like to think that what
makes this possible Is freedom and
democracy which Is fair to all with
out regard to race. creed, color, poll
tical party or financial status. This
kind of treatment Is also one of the
basic principles of the Community
Fund whose 80 agencies supply year
around nursing care, family service.

and legal advice, which the poor 80
desperately need and cannot afford
to purchase, all of which is available
to Metropolitan Detroit, which coy
ers the Down River District. He
pointed out that increased employ
ment at this time does not lessen the
needs of the agencies. Experience
shows that needs which the child
caring, character building and family
adjustment agencies of the Fur
fneetS 40 mot tend % detfease when
business picks up.

ported on the plans for the drive.
