The race relations survey was one

Gil. The money for the survey was
furnished by the Chest, not from
contributions, but from interest on
endowments for special needs.
The race relations section was to

have reported to the council. Neither
action was taken. The race relations

May Designate Gifts.
In notices being sent to club mem
bers, Elaine Exton, chairman of
youth conservation, pointed out con-
trlbutors may designate their gifts
to Chest-Supported agencies such as
the Boy and Girl Scouts, boys clubs,
YMCA, YWCA and settlement
houses.
Cuts in the funds of the youth
serving agencies followed the cam
palgn failure last year, Miss Exton
said. In 1947, she asserted, the Bows
Club Of Washington received $9, 900
less from the Community Chest than
in 1916, and the Boy Scouts received
only $1,000 more through the Chest
than they did 18 years ago, although
membership has doubled and oper-
atlng costs are twice as high.
About 1000 girls in Washington
and Montgomery County, she said,
have signifled a desire to join the
Girl Scouts but cannot be accepted
because of insufficient funds to ex-
pand facilities and staff.
Quoting the estimated cost of car
ing for delinquent child in cor
rectional institution here for one
year at a minimum of $1,000, the
notice declared:
How much more economical it
would be if this money could be ex-
pended on preventive rather than
