Members of the committee in charge were loath to believe that Washing- ton, after “going over the top” in ap- peals from all over the globe, will fail to provide the modest sum needed to take care of its own people, who are friendless unless “somebody cares.” Increased Costs Tell. The present embarrassment and deflcit which threatens these family welfare agencies is occasioned by the failure of contributions to keep pace with the increased cost of doing fam- ily rehabilitation work. Lack of em- ployment, sickness and the ever-pres- ent problem of desertion and non- support are making unusual demands upon the treasuries of these family welfare agencies. Washington relies upon private charity to keepall homes together, where there is a good mother, ‘and no reason for breaking up the home except lack of financial resources. The staff of the National City Com- pany has enlisted 100 per cent strong in this membership campaign. It is hoped that other business firms and organizations, yet to be heard from, will make the same perfect score. Contributions may be sent to The Star or to Howard S. Reeside, treasurer, 923 H street northwest. Professor Is Believer. Dr. John O'Grady, professor of sociology Catholic ~University and Trinity College, is a bellever in the Associated Charities. He said: “The Associated Charities has ren- dered us a most valuable service in preparing our students for social work. It is needless to repeat that social work cannot be taught in classroom lectures or from textbooks. The student who expects to devote himselt to this work in the capacity of a volun- teer or professional worker must learn by practical experience with a standard agency. In order to give my students practical experfence in social work I have assigned them to the dis- trict officers of the Associated Chari- ties. They are thus given an oppor- tunity of dealing with concrete prob- lems under the direction of trained workers. “I have always found the workers of the Associated Charitles most ready and willing to give their valuable time to the training of my students. They are ready to make this great sacrifice in order to increase the number of persons who are preparing to deal in- telligently with the social problems of our community. “In the training of volunteer and professional workers the Associated Charities is rendering a very impor- tant service to the community. It is not only preparing persons for practi- ing them in regard to community mat- ters and preparing them to assume pesitions of leadership in large move- ments for community betterment.” TO SAIL FROM BRITAIN Health Rules Into Effect.

NEW YORK, March 16—The Army transport Madawaska, badly dam- aged when she collided in a dense fog last night with the Shipping Board steamship Invincible eighteen miles off Barnegat, N. J., reported by wire- less at daybreak that she had started, under her own Steam, for this port. The coast guard cutter Gresham and the tugs Merrick and Resolute ac- companitd her, while the Invincible, which apparently suffered little from the crash, proceeded to Norfolk. Radio calls for immediate assist- ance were sent broadcast by the Madawaska after she was struck. She was cut in her starboard bow and be- gan to take water. Members of the crew worked frantically to keep her afloat, while the Invincible stood by, ready to take off the passengers. Later the Madawaska reported the danger was not so great, and that she had dropped anchor. She had planned to remove her passengers to the In- vincible at daybreak, but this was found to be unnecessary. —_— $22,000,000,000 SPENT YEARLY FOR LUXURIES Treasury Official Says Billion Is Used for Cigarettes and $750,- 000,000 for Cosmetics. PHILADELPHIA. March 16. — America was characterized as “the worst spendthrift nation the world has ever seen,” by William Mather Lewis, director of the savings depart- ment of the United States Treasury, at a dinner of the Phi Delta Theta Alumni Club of Philadelphia, here. “We spend $22,000,000,000 yearly for luxuries,” he said, “and if this stu- pendous sum was split in two ways we would have enough money to l!olve the world's capitalization prob- em.” Mr. Lewis said a billion a year is spent by Americans on cigarettes alone, while women hand out $750,- 000,000 a year for cosmefics. " Mr. Lewis denounced the type of American who takes delight in be- smirching the character of public of- ficials, saying that if this practice is persistently followed there should be no surprise at the doings of foreign- born radicals who come to this coun- —homes in all sections of the city and suburbs to sell.
