Commenting on plans for
the 1974 United Way Cam
paign, Falconer stated,
“There is an urgent need to
maintain and strengthen our
voluntary agencies and the
services they offer. The
United Way is designed so
that we as individual
members of our community
can help each other, while
we still have an opportunity
to do things voluntarily, for
ourselves.” •
He continued, “The United
Way must be even more
successful in 1974, because
all of us are the losers if our
voluntary agencies can’t
make it.”
