Chest TO Ask
For $qq5,667

Greater Toledo will be asked
to give $995,66 to its 1948
Community Chest when the
campaign gets under way Sept
25.
A report of the budget com.
mittee by Carroll L. Proctor,
chairman, said higher goal
than last year Is necessary with
the increased cost of living and
increased operating expenses of
the AZ Red Feather agencies.
1t was decided also that only
local agencies would be included
in this years drive. During the
war years many war and ma
tional fund agencies received
money through the Toledo
Chest.
The executive committee,
headed by Faustin J. Solon, ap-
proved a payment of $8.25 per
day, an increase of so cents, for
hospital cases referred to the
Chest through the Central Hos
pital Bureau. Chest payment of
hospital bills currently exceeds
$4,000 a month.
The 1948 campaign will be
Sept, 25 to Oct. 25.

against union demands.
Ching will take over the new
job on Aug. % when the major

Anfi-co-op
Move Fails

WASHINGTON, Aug. 13 -
(LPA) - An attempt by Chair
man Walter c. Ploeser (R., MOI
to lynch the cooperative move
ment before the House Small
Business Committee died a
quick death this week.
A story was circulated over
the weekend by a committee
spokesman that when. the COM
mittee opens hearings on wheth-
er or not cooperatives should
pay taxes, there would be no
favorable testimony" and that
'the inquiry will open the eyes
Of the American people to So
cialistic trends in America"
Quick protests from coopera-
tive spokesmen brought a dis
claimer from Ploaser's chief eco
nomic adviser. According to
John Carson, Washington repre-
sentative of the cooperatives, the
committee now says it will be
glad to hear as many witnesses
for the cooperatives' point OF
view as apply to be heard.
Hearings are now scheduled
to investigate alleged abuses OF
the exemption of cooperatives
from income tax payments in
San Francisco, Los Angeles,
and Seattle, Wash, in late
September. Target of the hear
ings will be the farmers mar
keting cooperatives in these
areas, it is expected.
