The trustees of Neighborhood House, 470 N street southwest, Wash- ington’s oldest settlement, today s- sued an appeal for $15,000 to continue the work of the social center. Recently a thorough investigation of the financial system of the House was made by H. Loren Fassett-of the budget bureau, as his personal con- tribution to the welfare project. Upon concluding his work Mr. Fassett had only one criticism to make—the sal- arfes paid the expert social workers on the staff were far too low. He recommended an immediate appeal 3 for money with which to meet cur-] rent expenses and also a campaign ext year for an increased budget. Neighborhood House was ° lished twenty-one years ago and many institutions of today owe their existence to it, for the house served as an experiment laboratory for all things of a social and welfare char- acter.
