Coffee or tea, 15 cents; beer and brandy, 19 cents; cigareites, 18 !cemts; heat and light, 47 cents; |soaps, 17 cenis; “sweets,” 4 cents: | miscellaneous, 7 cents, | This leaves 8 cents for clothes, books, street car fares, outside | lunches, amusements and savimgs. Meat Expensive Meat is the largest item for the table because it is expensive here Byt the amount used would scarce- ly buy one good roast. So the, house-wife probably buys hor: :u} meat twice a week and cheap beef | once. The 19 cents allotted to beer and brandy would buy one mug of good | Pilsner or ten small glasses of the | cheapest beer or four drinks of| cheapest brandy. The cigaret al-| lowance would purchase 18 of the | cheapest brand with consumption spread over seven days. The man reckoned 8 cents for eggs, which would buy two cheap ones, not guaranteed fresh, and the coffee would be limited to & quarter of a pound of the least expensive grade. Bachelors Get Less Not all of Germany's 5.000,000 jobless get this unemployment pay. and bachelors or childless husbands receive less than this budget indi- cates. In this individual case one- fourth of the allowance was for the man’s wife and child. Only those who kept up unem- ployment insurance payments when they had work receive doles, and if they. remain jobless after six‘ months the federal payments step and they must look to commun- ity relief agencies for the bare ne- cessities of living. It is estimated that 2,000 men and women are in this latter class. . COOPERATION TAUGHT All classes of people learn how to work and play together in a| cleanup campaign.
