Show UTAH LABOR NEWS. SALT LAKE CITY, UTAH. NOVEMBER 19, 1937. COMMUNITY CHEST Culinary Alliance Secretary Perkins IN FINAL APPEAL Ball December 10 In S. L. Today The 1937 army of nearly 1000 g Community Chest campaigners is on the march. dinner Opened with a kick-of- f Monday night, the big corps of volunteer appeal workers serving without pay and even paying for their own campaign meetings started early Tuesday morning in citywide efforts to attain the $105,-00- 0 goal fixed as the sum necessary to support social welfare agencies during the coming year. The Community Chest message, carried by the volunteers into every nook and corner of the city, is one of appealing for funds to carry on welfare activities as they have been in the current 12 months. This, they say, means continuance of many varied services embodied in child care, health and hospitalization, relief where other sources fail, character building and recreational activities as a check to juvenile delinquency. Up to date in 1937, the 21 welfare agencies supported by funds donated by the people have cared for thousands in their varied fields. They point, for example, to 111,110 days care provided dependent and neglected children in institutions and foster homes; to 13,929 days care given in nurseries, principally for the children of working mothers; to 38,052 garments distributed among the needy; to 8141 free dental operations for children of poor families; to 500 families provided with medical care; to more than 50,000 youngsters enrolled in study, recreation and other classes; to nearly 3000 travelers in distress aided; to hundreds of blind persons aided, and to a variety of other services affecting thousands. The campaign, scheduled to close November 23, is entirely for the purpose of continuing these worthy services. Leaders pointed out that less than 4 per. cent of the total sum raised is used to defray campaign expenses. Every additional cent goes for the rendition of services and aid to the underprivileged, in particular. They ask that donations be made by the people with these, facts in mind. The campaigners are seeking subscription under the appeal slogan of Arrest These Public Enemies Hunger, Disease.
