Petitions for the Senate position were circulated by H. L. Williamâ€" son, president of the Illinois Press association and not by association of the Congressman, who were famâ€" iliar with his present plans, to seek reelection. ‘The leter of Congressman Church, to the Highland Park Press was as follows: "My attention has been called to the fact that some of my enthusâ€" instic friends in different parts of the State have again initiated a movement to have me run for the United States Senate. While I naâ€" turally appreciate such upu-lou\ of confidence, I wish to make it clurtothep,eopleofth.l‘)fllml-‘ trict, whom I am privileged to repâ€" resent in the House of Representsâ€" tives, that I am a candidate for reâ€" election to my present seat in Conâ€" gress.

A perâ€" sonal Primary campaign thus being precluded and entirely out of the question, I confidently rely on the efforts of my friends and believe my record will speak for itself.

It is believed that a beginning can be made with funds on hand but it is hoped that without acampaign of any kind, generous citizens may want to add to the fund, so that an adequate and repâ€" resentative structure would be asâ€" sured. It was pointed out that this is a favorable time to build and with funds on hand, advantage should be taken of the situation. "The Directors will plan along conservative lines," said Mr. R. P.

They have indicated their belief that the support of a Community Center is a proper function of the Community Chest. However, in view of condiâ€" tions, our Board will plan a lhm structure, housing the most facilities and concentrate its funds in the building itself, inasmuch as the Park Board will provide the land without cost by suitable long time lease arrangement.
