Would Pledge Contributions
Mr. Kornback decllncd to andat in
any movement to raise money for
that purpoa: because of a. belief "that
any organization of this character
must be self-sustaining if it is to be
surviving." but said that if the lesion
undertook to achieve the tame pur-
poae by a membership campaign. he
could “pledge substantial cbntrlbu-
tions from various sources for the
purpose of defraying expense of or-
ganization. soliciting of members
ctr." He suggested an early meet-
ing of the committee and not only
agreed to attend and co-operate ful-
ly, but ox‘fercd to assist Commander
Seymour in arranging the time and
place of the meeting.
Chairman W’s Letter.
The following is a copy of Chairman
Iioraback's letter to Commander Sey-
mour.~—

“The act provides for an organiza-
tion of service men for the purpose
of carrying out its provisions. and
explicitly provides that no part of
the income of said fund shall be used
for administration purposes. This was
to insure permanency of the organiza-
tion in that it should be self-sustain-
ing. Further by becoming self-sus~
taining it was entirely removed from
the class of charity organizations be—
cause the income of the state fund is
a dlrect appropriation to_ the organ-
lmtlon to assist in carrying out its
purposes.
Deplorcs Fight for Salary.
"It seems unfortunate that a con-
test over a. salary should have been
the first question for a. public deter-
mination to arise in connection with
the management. Such questions will
inevitably arise, but if the organlba-
tion is financing its own operating ex-
pensea. they can be settled within
the organisation, and will
wisely and economically determined
than if the payment of such expenses
is made from a public fund.
“I understand it is estimated that
310.000 annually will be required to
administer this fund. provided salaries
haw: to be paid. I also understand
that there are 80.000 eligible veter—
ans in Connecticut. Could this expense
be entirely distributed among these
veterans it would of course. be insig-
nificant. but it would seem that at
lcast 10.000 who will he willin

would contribute at least one dollar

"To properly begin a work of this
character the appointment of your
commltiee seems to have been an ex—
cellent idea. I would suggest that at
some early date this committee be
called together for the purpose of dis-
cussing the subject of an organization
along lines similar to those which I
have indicated. and I shall be glad to
meet as one member and co-operate
in every way possible. To the end of
carrying out this work I can pledge
substantial contributions from various
sources for .the purpose of defraying

with you about the time and place of

compelled to be out of the city for
several days. but would be glad to

out that there might be a. dimer-anon
of opinion between the administrator
of the fund and members of the com.

the public could reasonably be asked
