PATENT TRADER, MT. KISCO, N.Y., THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 29, 1956 Page 3 Community Chest Urged '' ' North County's Profile Is One Of Growth, New Service Needs . MT. KISOO — A look into the future of rapidly growing upper Westchester \ was given Junior Leaguers Tuesday at a \Communi ty Profile Day\ at Mt. Kisco Boys Club. \As of April 1, 1956, the West chester Department of Planning estimates population at 738,500— a 33% per cent increase in 16 years,\ said John F. Maloney of Chappaqua, chairman of the board of directors of the Westchester County Council of Social Agencies. \In the next 20 years, Westches ter's population will grow to one million, an additional growth of 36 per cent,\ he said. Later in his talk Mr. Maloney made a plea for a Community Chest type 6ingle fund drive for upper Westchester. The program, which was design ed to draw an interpretative pro file of work being done in the fields of health and welfare and Individual and family service in upper Westchester, Included mor ning addresses' and a luncheon with talks by Mr. Maloney and Mrs. H. Norman Neubert of Chappaqua, vice president of the Association of Junior Leagues' of America. More Leisure ' Greetings were given to an au dience of 200 by Mrs. Barclay Shaw of Chappaqua, president of the Mt. Kisco Junior League, sponsors of the conference. Ray mond Wall, president of the Boys Club, explained its work. Dr. Sal J. Prezioso, county commissioner of recreation, spoke on how short er work weeks are producing more time for recreation. Problems include a lack of trained recreational leaders, in adequate appropriation of funds and lack of facilities, Dr. Prezioso said.

Buttenheim of Mt. Kisco, vice president of the Junior League, speaking for Mrs. George O'Brien of Pleasantville, who could not make her scheduled address, declared that education is one of the main objectives of all Junior Leagues. 65 Agencies Mrs. Richard Daramon, presi dent of Family Service of West chester, noted that there are 65 agencies in the county to help families, individuals and children Mrs. Charles Murphy of Chappa qua, placement chairman of*the League, said the average Leaguer is 32 years old and the mother of three, has no help, but does have the desire to serve her com munity in some way. Dr. William A. Brumfield Jr., county health commissioner, de clared that with communicable diseases controllable in large mea sure, chronic diseases are now the major problem o fhis department. The problems that growth brings were touched on by Mr. Maloney: \It came as a shock to me to learn that Bronx County, now a major borough of New York City, less than 50 years ago looked like Westchester. It was a county or borough of small villages with lots of space between. \Will the day come when we can drive from the southern tip of Westchester to the Putnam County line—as we can through parts of Southern Westchester— and no*t know when we have left one city, town, village . . . and entered another?\ Mr. Maloney asked With growth comes an increase in the need for services, Mr. Ma loney continued. More To Care For \Thcrp are more families to get upset, there are more children to become disturbed, there are more children needing places to play and opportunities for organized recreational programs . . . there are more older people to be chron ically ill there are more people requiring housing \ Mr. Maloney said he often meets people—\and you do, too—who say, 'Let's profit by the mistakes which Southern Westchester has made.' What do they mean by this?\ One mistake, he declared, Is the \limited vision ' or insularity of the planning and the offering of services in Southern Westchester, with each community there going its own, way. \In contrast, in Northern West chester, although there are a num ber of what might be regarded as purely local services, the ap proach has been quite different. Regional Approach .\Northern Westchester Hospital is a regional or sectional service as its name clearly indicates. The Northern Westchester Girl Scout Council, now only two years old, is another development of a re gional or sectional approach. \lu my opinion,\ Mr. Maloney said, \the attempts to approach problems on an area or a joint community planning basis should be fostered and encouraged.\ He added that through organi zations established on a broader basis than a village or town,\ the essential services which our grow ing population requires can be ren dered better and at less expense.\ The reason is that \administra tion and supervision, centralized, can be offered to a small com munity at a higher level than if that community were to have its own service. \It reduces competition in a field where it is hard to find staff. It reduces the number of admin istrators and supervisors. The lar ger unit can more readily justify the expense of employing special ists in pschiatry, psychology and public relations.\ More To Do .< Mr. Maloney said the County Council of Social Agencies is con cerned with sound planning of health, welfare, receational, edu cational and other community ser vices for all of Westchester. He said it is the only countywide vol untarily supported center for the sound planning of health and wel fare services in Westchester. \(It) should be doing far more than it is doing,\ he said \even though we confess to being some what proud of our accomplish ments. Our major limitation Is lack of funds. While we now spend only' $70,000 a year, we should be spending at least $100, 000.\ Mr Maloney said the \lack of professional staff direction and guidance has been a major factor in the \poor record of so many local community chests in South ern Westchester \... I realize that a number of nothern Westchester Com munities are becoming seriously concerned about the multiplicity of fundraislng appeals,\ he said. \Within the past two years at least five northern Westchester com munities have come to ask how to go about organizing a local community chest.\ Easy To Start Mr Maloney continued that it would be \relatively easy to start a community fund which was wholly volunteer, as is the case with most of those in Southern Westchester. _ ' \But is this what we want?\ County Officials To Plan 1957 PPR Installation WHITE PLAINS — County of ficials and members of the Board of Supervisors' sub-committee on Permanent Personal Registration will meet Pirday to plan instal lation of PRN for the 1957 elec tions in Westchester The group will meet with County Kxecutive James D Hopkins at 3 p. m. in Mr Hopkins' office in the County Office Building. Attending will be Walter W. Westall and William P. Luddy, commissioners of the County Board of Elections; their deputies, Carl J Noe of Katonah and Joseph E. Morahan, County Attorney Harry G Herman. County Budget Director John A Peterson; and the throe sub-committee members of the County Board Supervisors William J O'Hara of Mt. Vernon, Francis X O'Rourke of East- chester, and John E Tobin of Yonkers. Mi-. Hopkins said the group \will discuss what is needed in the way of equlpement and elec tion, board personnel to put PRN into operation, and how we should go about it\ f, PJtN was adopted by the Board of Supervisors November 5. In submitting the proposed County Budget for 1957 last week Mr Hopkins estimated it will coat $200,000 to install the system but that the annual cost of maintain ing it thereafter will be much less. Mr Maloney asked \Volunteers again are most important in the success of any federated fund- raising effort, but of equal import ance is sound professional direc tion on a year-round basis. \My plea is that no local chest be formed m our area here with out first and thoroughly consider ing the greater merits of a united regional or area effort,\ Mr. Maloney said Closing remarks were made by Mrs. Neubert, who explained the aims of Junior Leagues in com munities, and declared that the Junior League has been a pioneer in the field of cooperation between volunteer workers and profession als.
