The ~ members Of the Special
Gifts Committee in the campaign

chairman, Robert p. Smith. at a
luncheon meeting at 1890 pm.
Tuesday in the Ambassador Hotel.
The invitation to the committee
members to meet was issued by
Police Superintendent Ernest w.
Brown, Who said campaign workers
will have q harder task this year
than those In previous campaigns
because Of the many Embarrassing
campaigns. due to conditions In
Europe.
Maj. Browns message said in
part: ". -...t
There is no doubt in my mind
that Washington will subscribe the
$4,000 required for our i've club
houses and summer camp, when the
drive Is on between March 80 and
April Is, because the amount Is
extremely modest for q city the
size Of ours, and because this is
a Enthusiastically common cam
paign in which city-wide participa-
ton is annually asked in sums from
dollar up.
However, the demands on the
public purse this year have been
abnormal because of the sorry
plight of our 11eighbors across the
ocean, and the Police Boys Club
campaign workers must be prepared
to push their purpose relentlessly."
