Chest Drive Goes On
Beyond Target Date
For Final 10 PET.

Service agencies have been
promised that the Community
Chest Campaign will not fail
this year. although only 80 per
cent Of the goal has been reached
today, the target date for ending
the drive.
General Chairman Aaron
Goldman pointed out that, in
school tests, and almost any
other endeavor, 90 per cent is
"a good mark. 1t is not good
enough for the Chest, he said.
The campaign will be continued.
/ The 81 million goal is the rock
bottom amount needed to sup
port the 101 agencies taking
part in the Chest.
Percentage Above Last Year.
At a campaign luncheon yes
terday in the Hotel Washington,
n total Of 1882, ,246 in gifts and
pledges was reported. This is
1891 per cent of the quota. At
this point in last years unsuc-
cessful campaign. 1922 per cent
had been reached.
Former Chairman Hugh K.
Duff1eld, the chief speaker at
the luncheon, told the volunteer
workers three effects could come
from failure to make the 81
million:
/. Lack of care for the $50 900
persons here who need it. These
include, he said, children NOV
Ing toward juvenile delinquency.
Bervicemen far from home, the
destitute sick, unwed mothers
and others.
Threat to Chest.
2. The destruction Of the
Chest itself. Agencies might feel
they could make more money
through their own fund drives
and might quit the federated
campaign.
This is frightful thing to
face" Mr.. Duffield said. He
urged those present who are
members of the managerial
boards of the various agencies
to fight against such a trend.
3. The disruption of COM
munity-wide planning to meet |
the needs. If the Chest were to
dissolve, or be badly weakened,
1t would destroy the co-ordina-
tion of the various agencies, Mr.. |
Duffield told the workers.
Yesterdays luncheon, origi- |
nally billed as a victory and |
Thanksgiving meeting, fulfilled |
at least part Of that, Mr.. Duffield |
said, as he thanked the volunteer |
workers, the contributors, and |
all who have worked on the
Chest drive this year.

Local Union Community Asset
1t is most encouraging to learn
that our American educators today
have awakened to the fact that
the workingman through strong
local unions is a vital source of
good in the community.
This was pointed out to us by
John P. Caldwell, Director, Union
Education Service, Chicago Uni
versity.
Mr.. Caldwell is an enthusias
tic teacher who has taught C. l. O.
Summer School for last two years
! He states that he has learned
more of the true brotherhood oi
man during these union classes
than in all his previous years OF
teaching.
If an ordinary workingman is to
be effective in working for bet
ter community, Mr.. Caldwell
stresses, then he must work with
his fellow-man to build a gooC
strong local union and place thi:
strength behind the worthwhile
community projects that will ben
eft all.
We are glad to hear from neigh
boring labor unions as it is alway.
interesting to know what othel
unions are doing, their activities
news and personalities. So, mem
bers of other labor unions ma,
accept this as an invitation to con
tact Steve Novak, President, Loca

The c. /. o. Summer School held
at Ohio University, Athens, proved
an outstanding success. The ac'
commodations were excellent. Our
teachers were college professors
and high-ranking c. l. O. leaders.
Mr.. Lehman and myself as Lo-
cal 497 delegates were made to
feel like youngsters as other union
delegates began to boast of 1918
IL years as chairmen in their To-
Gals. One delegate had been the
first and only President of his To-
cal since 1887.
These men of experience in
union work have many ideas and
suggestions to pass along.
We crowded into this week of
study every subject possible and
we sincerely hope that our Local
497 will benefit from what we
learned.
Our thanks 60 to every member
of Local 497 who made possible
our attendance of this Summer
School.
