CHEST STILL WILLING
Statement by BIunck
On D. c. United Fund

that the organization Of a new
United Fund usually results in
substantial increases from COM
pany gifts and from employees
as compared with previous chest
campaigns. Business firms gen.
orally have increased payroll
deduction plans to aid employees
in making larger gifts.
Technical Details
There are many technical and
administrative details that need
to be worked out when a commu-
nifty moves into a United Fund.
These include:
Should a new Embarrassing or
ganization be set up?
What structural relationships
should be worked out between the
United Fund and the Welfare
Planning Agency in the commu-
nifty?
How should the distribution of
funds raised be worked out among
the participating agencies?
What symbol should be used
by the United Fund?
How is the goal for a United
Fund campaign arrived at?
These and other questions re-
quire craftsmanship to resolve,
and each community works them
out differently. It is sufficient at
this point to state that if Greater
Washington moves into a United
Fund, the citizen leadership I'M
doubtedly would be able to resolve
such questions.
Any community going into a
United Fund should understand
and accept the fact that the
United Fund is not panacea.
1t cannot completely eliminate
all appeals for funds. However,
the benefits to the community,
contributors, and people needing
help are considerable. Included
among the benefits are:
l. 1t does provide the eligible
agencies with an Opportunity for
single fund raising effort for
their support. rather than having
to compete for funds with all
other agencies.
2. 1t does conserve volunteer
manpower, so that a civic minded
person is not called upon to give
of his time soliciting funds in
multiple campaigns.
3. 1t does save time and con-
fusion in business houses and
Government Offices because they
can put on once-a-year about
Embarrassing effort rather than
have to put on two, three or a
dozen drives among their en-
ployes.
4. 1t does mean a savings in
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1955-04-20
TORNADO LEVELS FARM Bull DINGs

campaign costs, thus permitting
more of the funds collected going
into actual, services.
5. 1t does mean that If per-
son gives enough at one time, he
can with clear conscience feel
that he has done his fair share.
6. 1t does mean that the aver
age giver will be spared the con-
fusion of deciding relative merits
of separate appeals, since he will
have assurance that the United
Fund leadership will give such
questions adequate study.
7. 1t does mean the likelihood
of more money raised for the
eligible agencies.
What It Doesn't Do
On the other hand, there are
some things that a United Fund
does not do:
l. A United Fund does not
raise money for major capital
repairs, requirements or new
buildings.
2. A United Fund does not
include agencies that are not
strictly welfare, health or recrea-
ton in the social service sense.

no matter how worthy such activ-
ity may be.
8. A United Fund does not
include agencies that may be
social service in nature but ex-
tremely limited in interest-no
matter how worthy such activi-
ties may be-.
4. A United Fund would not be
in a position to dictate to its
participating agencies ag ainst
their conducting a house-to-
house canvass if their entrance
into the United Fund is contin-
gent upon their so doing-as in
the case of the recently an
lnounced national Red Cross
policy.
S. The United Fund does not
underwrite cost of agency serv-
ices to those who can afford to
pay: For example. if a boy can
afford to pay for a membership
in the YMCA, it is expected that
he should; if family can afford
to pay all or part Of needed
medical care program. it should.
One Disadvantage
Although there are many spe-
cific situations that need to be
thought through carefully in the
National Capital Area before the
community can have a success
full United Fund. one in particu-
lar warrants public attention. 1t
is fact that currently the Fed
eral Government does not make
possible a voluntary payroll de-
duction plan for those Govern
ment workers who wish to give
a sufficient amount but who can
only do so on an installment
plan, preferably through payroll
deduction. The Federal Govern
ment is the largest employer in
the National Capital Area. 1t is
a fact that. as an employer. the
Federal Government annot
make a company gift" to vol
untary charitable causes.
If the Federal Government
were private employer and en-
ployed. as it does, about 250,-
900 workers, experience with
other privately owned business
would indicate that the United
Fund would receive about 81
million as company gift" in
addition to the gifts Of the en-
ployes. But this we know can
not happen because Government
is not a private employer.
On the other hand, it is to be
hoped that Government, as an

employer, can do at least as
much as private employers dc
insofar as cooperating at the
level Of employe solicitation.
Such cooperation takes the
form not only of permitting the
employees to organize campaign
teams in the Offices to conduct
solicitation (Which the Govern
ment offices do now, and do
welD, but also of allowing the
employees to participate in a
voluntary payroll deduction plan
in order that their pledges might
be large enough for all agencies
in the fund. and payments be
spread out over IL months.
With Government m kin g
available a payroll deduction
plan to it's employees. and with
assurance from business firms
that they will increase participa-
ton and develop more payroll
deduction plans, the prospects
for a successful United Fund in
the National Capital Area are
considerably enhanced.
Voluntary CO operation
through united action is cher
ished American tradition, and
consistent with the American
philosophy of free enterprise.
The United Fund is another
manifestation Of how Americans
solve community problems with
out legislative mandates.
If it is the will of the COM
munity that there shall be a
United Fund for the National
Capital Area. the Community
Chest Federation leadership
stands ready to cooperate.

Herbert c. Blunck, president
of the Community Chest Fedora
ton. today reiterated the Fedora
TONS willingness to cooperate
in United Fund for Greater
Washington, and in a statement
outlined the essential facts"
about such a program.
Following Is Mr.. Blunck's state
ment:
The Community Chest Fedora
ton of the National Capital Area
has noted the increasing inter-
est in the possibility Of United
Fund for Greater Washington.
The leadership of the Com
munity Chest Federation again
states it's position that it stands
ready to cooperate in the devel-
opment of a United Fund for the
National Capital area.
Before the community goes
into a United Fund. it is i'm
portant that there be a general
understanding Of what United
Fund means. The Community
Chest Federation board of direc-
tors, in the interest OF better
community public understand
ing, would like to bring some OF
the essential facts to the atten-
ton of the public.
Single Campaign
The term United Fund" (also
called Torch Fund. Good Neigh
Dor Fund, zone Package Drive"
etc.3 is generally used to mean
a single campaign for funds for
the health, welfare and recrea-
ton agencies that are already
Joined together under the ban
ner of the Community Chest. plus
many of the other agencies which
have been conducting independ-
ent campaigns in recent years.
Although the United Fund move
ment has been sweeping the
country, no two cities initiate
the movement or organize the
Fund in exactly the same way.
Variations exist from city to city
depending upon local conditions.
OF the 1900 cities that have
Community Chests. 665 cities
have taken the next step and
developed United Funds since
1850.
. In 1888 of the 665 United Fund
cities the American Red Cross
has become q participant in the
United Fund, in addition to one
or more of the other national
health appeals.
In the 665 United Fund cities,
the local affiliate Of a national
health agency may be mem
Der of the United Fund. but in
some cities the United Fund in
cludes the cause" Of the ma
tional health agency even though
the local affiliate chose not to
Join the United Fund. On this
basis, the record Of inclusion in
the 665 cities is as follows:
Community Chest ION
l.
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1955-04-20

In addition to the inclusion OF
the agencies or causes" listed
above, each city has to decide
for itself what else should be
included OF a strictly local, ma
tional or international interest.
Can It DO the Job?
Many people are concerned as
to whether the United Fund can
raise as much money as the In
dividual agencies raised pre-
viously in their separate appeals.
A quote from a report recently
issued by the Community Chests
and Councils of America. Inc.
answers this question as follows:
I'm "A cities which compiled
comparable data the United
Funds in their first campaigns
produced about 20 per cent more
than all participating agencies
raised in the previous year in
separate appeals. In individual
cities the increases range as
high as 155 per cent. With only
three exceptions all cities re-
porting show some increase;
nearly one-third Of the cities
show an increase Of at least 80
per cent. (In compiling these
figures no attempt has been
made to take into account the
savings in campaign costs which
undoubtedly resulted from the
combination Of appeal.)"
The report also states: 1.-THE
majority Of United Funds con-
sistently make gains each year;
Is q group the, United Funds
have achieved somewhat higher
percentage of goal each year
than the regular Community
Chests"
The experience also indicates
