Ten thousand dollars must be raised by the Travelers Aid Society for the coming year and for each year to come if the work of that organization to hu- manity is to be kept going, according to Mrs. Walling Van Riper, the hesd of the Travelers Aid in Washington. White slavery is guarded against, young girly dismayed at their entrance to the large city are taken care of in- stead of being allowed to be trapped by dangerous acquaintances, decepiive ad- vertisements and all the lures put out for them; the aged and infirm, boys run- ning away for adventure, imrigrants, the prey of exploiters; the mentally de- ranged—all are cared for by the Trav- elers Aid. , These are but a few of those that come under the protection of the Travelers Aid, Mrs. Van Riper says, and she points out that the present complex clviliza- tion demands such protection. Without the assistance of the people of Wash- ington, however, the local branch will not be able to do its share in the work, and the helpless and needy that drift to the capital will lack the proper care to put their feet in the right paths. 30,000 Cared For. Since June 1 over 30,000 travelers have «] | been_cared for, 50,000 yearly arrive at the Union station needing advice and help. Some of these can be sent on with a word, but most of them demand hours of personal supervision, looking up friends, finding addresses, etc. For this vast amount of work and effort the Travelers Aid has been able to keep but two persons at the sta- tion, thus necessitating hours of overwork and overtime daily. Mrs. Van Riper maintains that this cannot go on, with the ever-increas- ing number of travelers needing help. The minimum that can do.the work i The minimum amount that this bureau running is esti- mated at $750 a month, or $9,000 a year. Besides this, Mrs. Van Riper has found that the time has come { when the work demands an office. Up to this time she has spent at least twelve hours daily in her own home doing clerical work. The least that a small office could be maintained on is figured at §1,000 yearly. Total, $10,000. Money Must Come From City.
