 War Left Problems
 The war has left us with nu- merous health and welfare prob lens that must be solved. The Red Feather agencies of our Commun- ity Chest are indispensable in the solution of these problems and we must exert every effort to raise the funds needed for this work.
 These Red Feather services af- fec1 the lives of every one of us, rich and poor alike. Some people have the idea that their contribu- tion to the Community Chest is intended only to furnish food, cloth ing and shelter to the under-priv- ileged We shall do all we can to correct this misconception. Every one must be made to realize that the recreational services of the group work agencies, the efforts of the health agencies to provide care for the sick and injured and make our community a healthier place in which to live, and the psychia- tric and case work services of the other agencies are indispensable They affect the lives of all of us to a more or less degree. We must not forget. either. the work that is being done for the care of chil- dren by the child-Walfare agencies.
 We must meet our quota in the forthcoming campaign. l find that the Budget Committee of the Chest has already started ot work with the agencies to see that the total of their budgets does not exceed an amount which we shall have a good chance to reach.
 The Community Chest campaign for Red Feather Services is the most important job we have ahead of us here in this community. IL calls for the fullest support of man. agement, labor, business and all of the religious, and racial groups I am confident we shall receive that support and our drive this Fall will be the most successful one we have ever had
