Provide for an improved program and expansion to boys by raising the budget. 3, Assist with budget control to keep expenditures within income, serve more In carrying out these objectives the committee has carefully reviewed all budgets and adopted a total budget considered to be reasonable and sufficient to meet the minimum needs for operation, Shelby United Neighbors unfortunately found it necessary to provide less than our request for 1959 since adequate funds were not available to meet the needs of all agencies. This situation has improved with a highly successful S.U.N. campaign this fall, We have requested and expect to receiv,e a considerable increase from S,U,N. for our 1960 operation, greatest financial success for the year was our sustaining membership enrollment. This effort which was extremely well organized produced almost twice as much income as any previous effort. This support along with the S.U.N. allocation and area campaign money gave the council the largest amount it has ever had for operation. ~ur Even though substantial progress has been made we must do even better in the future. We must support S.U.N. and expect a larger and more reasonable allocation, Our sustaining membership efforts should be increased and we must imprcwe our area campaign .to insure better results, The quality of our program depends to a very large extent on amount of funds available for operation. tbe �HEALTH & SAFETY COMMITTEE Dr. James A," Will.lace,; Chairman The function of the Health and Safety Committee overlaps those of other The fine cooperation of these other operating committees of the council. committees and of the individual Unit Leaders in the council have contributed materially to the Health and Safety Program.

The Kamp Kia Kima Staff included a medical doctor who lived on the camp and was available twenty-four hours a day. Plans are under way to provide medical doctors again in 1960. We are also happy to announce that a sick call was conducted every morning at Camp Fuller this summer by a doctor. We hope this can be worked out so that eventually we will have a doctor on the camp staff, Ninety-two percent of all meeting places were inspected by the Health and Safety Committee, We want to congratulate all units on their fine cooperation given the Health and Safety Committee this year. �LEADERSHIP TRAINING COMMITTEE William M.
