ton. on the other hand. re.
ported that in 1864 only As pc,
cent of the total 1t raised went
for the cost Of the campaign.
Other arguments in favor Of
United Funds are that they raise
more money, are more efficient,
permit better coordination OF
local services. prevent overlap
ping of activities, maintain
standards for eligible agencies,
reduce opportunities for charity
racketeering and save the public
from the harassment Of multiple
appeals.
To these arguments, the in
dependents say that united fund
giving takes away the individ-
ual's freedom to contribute to
the cause Of his choice. Their
biggest objection, however. is
that united funds deprive the
independents Of a chance to
their work against
particular diseases. They say
their fund campaigns do more
than just raise money-they act
as public information programs

we have an atmosphere Of sue

He said that money collected
by the United Fund would be for

Expenses Of agencies. Institutions
appeals for building purposes OF
other capital improvements
would be free to do so, he said
Mr.. Morris said that the fear
of some independent National
agencies that they would lose
their identity" by joining United
Funds simply does not make
sense"
eve want them to keep their
identity, publicize themselves as
much as possible" he said. THE

Cross chapters Joined one-pack-
age drives.
Local heart and cancer chap
tiers also have co-operated in
some united drives. despite
strong opposition from their
national headquarters. The two
national organizations last year
adopted identical policies which
would forbid any more chapters
to join such drives but would
permit those already in to con-
tinue if they raise enough money.
The National Foundation for
Infsntile Paralysis forbids its
units to participate in united
drives on penalty of expulsion.
The District chapter last week
was ordered to return contribu-
lions sent it from one-package
drives in the District Govern
ment and some Federal agencies.
Pro and Con
One of the arguments for
United Funds is lower campaign
costs. Annual reports of the ma
tional independents show that
in recent years they have put
out these amounts to pay fund
raising costs:
American Cancer Society. 10
per cent; American Heart As
ISOLATION, IL per cent; Infantile
Paralysis Foundation, IL per
percent; Crippled Chiidren's So
