Karl Kae Knecht Cartoon

Description:	A hand holds a quill pen labeled Community Chest and prepares to fill out a check to that organization. Text above the feather encourages readers to give at least 10 cents for every dollar previously donated, and to donate now if they havent already. One bottle of ink sitting in front of the checkbook says that $38,000 is needed; a bottle of red ink next to it says that the October campaign fell short. Knechts elephant reminds readers that organizations will go back to having separate fundraising drives if the Community Chest fund is insufficient.
