SUCKERS IN CHEST
Organizations Will Solicit
Shirkers AH Year.
PLAN MADE
Rather Important and Prosper
ous Firms Give but Little
or Xothing at All.
2
s
AT RALLY
1 Zt
Poetic justice is to overtake the
shirkers of the Community Chest.
They are not to be posted as slack
ers or branded as delinquents. But
for 52 weeks of the year the 53
organizations of "the Chest are to
be urged to solicit from them that
they may redeem their frequently
repeated assertion that their be
lief is in individual charity.
This conclusion was reached yes
terday at a rally of workers held
in the Multnomah hotel when every
officer of the drive assured Gen
eral Gammons that there was no
thought of discontinuing effort to
complete the quota. If not this
week, then next week, or the fol
lowing but to a successful conclu
sion, however long may be required.
The total now pledged is $442,087.
Big Firm Give Nothing.
There had been reported to the
gathering the conduct of several
rather important and prosperous
firms which had given but little
or had refused to give at all. And
from the ensuing debate as to some
method of dealing with these rose
the acclaimed suggestion that an
all-year open season be declared
upon the recalcitrants. The sorest
subject of any drive was thus ef
fectively disposed of.
In his address to the workers.
General Sammons declared that co
operative effort will complete the
quota. There was no lack of en
thusiasm, but rather a pronounced
belief in success, and colonel after
colonel insisted that he and his re
cruits had enlisted for the dura
tion of the campaign. Illustrat
ing the possibilities of the field.
General Sammons himself reported
five increased subscriptions, taken
through his own effort yesterday.
Another Rally Is Slated.
At another general rally to be
held Friday noon the workers will
review progress and enter upon the
last chapter of the philanthropic
endeavor. It is held that, by the
close of the week, the quota may
not have been attained, but that fu
ture policy will then be definitely
indicated. Officials admit that it
may be necessary to completely re
check the lists with those of last
year and make certain that every
known favorable prospect has been
seen. If this is done all agree that
the quota will be reached.
Two splendid organization re
ports were received yesterday. The
employes of the Ellison-White
Lyceum bureau reported a subscrip
tion of $43y, or an inrcease of
one-third over last year's contribu
tion. The employes of Clossett &
Devera have completed their can
vass with a 100 per cent return.
Y. '91. C. A. Objection Raised.
For the first time durinfe the
campaign, so far as headquarters is
aware, the Y. M. C. A. objection was
raised. It came via telephone from
woman whose son had served
overseas and who said that she was
opposed to contributing to the sup
port of the "Y." General Sammons
answered the call.
'"I also served overseas," he said,
"and was for eight months on the
front line under shell fire. The
workers of the 'Y' were there. Per
haps you do not know that there
were more representat-"ves of this
organization in France than of all
others combined, that 11 Y. M. C. A.
men were killed in the battle zone,
that three died of wounds, that hun
dreds were wounded and gassed and
that 268 were decorated and cited
for bravery under fire. There were
objectionable men in the service of
the Y.-M. C. A., undoubtedly, but so
it was with other organizations. In
the main the type of representative
was splendid and the work accom
plished was of the highest and most
unselfish order."
