...This committee has investigated certain of the annual funds which are usually subscribed by the College. The Phillips Brooks House will expect $4,000 from the College, and we see no reason why this should not be guaranteed to it by the Student Council. The Class Funds will require a varying amount, subject to certain difficulties which will be explained below, which can roughly be estimated as $4,000 per annum. The Student Council itself should have the expenditure of certain funds in its own hands, for the expenses of delegates to intercollegiate conference and for such incidental expenses...
...matter of the inclusion of the class funds in the Budget presents no simple difficulties. The transition from one system to the other will undoubtedly work to the disadvantage of those classes which have already collected a fund for their college expenses. On the other hand, the merits of such inclusion seem so great that the difficulty assumes a minor significance. By arrangement with the treasurers of the incoming Freshman classes for the next three years, the transition may be completely effected by that date. This arrangement has already been suggested to the class of 1929. Perhaps the best solution...

It may be advisable, in the opinion of this committee to start the figure at the latter figure whether the camp is approved of not, while on the other hand it seems exceedingly dubious policy to give such a new venture as this too high a goal. This is a matter which should properly be left to the discretion of the Student Council, or to that of the Finance Committee which will actually have...
Letters to the Harvard Fund Council, which have, in many cases, accompanied contributions, indicate a gratifying approval of the plan of the fund. A case in which distance has lent, perhaps something besides enchantment, is that of a distinguished Siamese contributor, whose letter is also quoted on another page. If the Fund's appeal can effectively reach a man so far removed from the life and flavor of Cambridge, it will not be lost on those who are geographically closer...
...first administrative year of the Harvard Fund Council will end on June 30, 1926. What the Fund wants before then is a large increase of contributors; of men who realize that $5 or $10 contributions now. if that is all they can easily afford, will bring the total just that much nearer to a satisfactory figure.
