M. C. A. Thirty-two leaders of the campaign of the Common, ity Chest held a meeting Monday night to discuss and report on the progress being made in developing an organization for the purpose of raising Ml.Nl to sustain the work of member agencies. WaUternmu D.

Dugu, chairman of the drive, presided. Mr. Dugan compared the Otean goal with that of other communities and stated that "Olean is very favorably situated." The drive chairman pointed out that "no community exists by itself. People must work for it and give for it, if a city is to measure up to its obligations." He urged the leaders to complete their respective sections of the campaign organization within the next few days and to report the names of their workers to the headquarters office, 207 Exchange Bank Building by Saturday. Frank V.

Williams, president of the Chest, expressed the conviction that the workers must take their task very seriously this vear. "The drive fell short lafat year by $1,307. Your task is to raise 543,981, the amount required to keep our member agencies working at an effective pitch." The Chest president said further: "We are proud of our Chest in Olean. It has one of the lowest overhead costs in New York State. The member-agencies are a big asset to our community.

There isn't one that should be eliminated or reduced. The finance committee, and later the Board of directors, have carefully examined all requests for appropriations and are satisfied with the soundness of the needs. This means that a group of responsible, intelligent citizens have agreed thai $43,981 is a minimum requirement. Workers should approach all prospective givers with confidence in the worthiness of the goal." Mr. Williams greeted the rep-j resentatives of the Central Trades and Labor Council.

He told J. E. Martens and W. C. Shearer that they were introducing a new force into the annual Chest drive for funds that should prove beneficial to the community.

James A. Whitman, a former director of the Chest. spoke briefly on invitation of Mr. Dugan. "The job before you as a campaign organization can be done," B.

J. Wilkinson, vice chairman of the drive, said. "A strong organization is almost completed. If that organization works hard and with serious purpose the task of raising the 1949 goal can be accomplished." Others attending the conference included Mrs. Theo B.
