THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, e 11 0PPORTUNITIES Center of Suit STILL ARE OPEN Only Three of 14 Are Fully Provided For—$7,637 Needed for Fund. With Christmas scarcely 36 hours away the Opportunity Fund of the Assoclated Charities, now in its seven- teenth season, is still far short of its roquired needs for the 14 families, consisting of 61 children and adults. Only 3 of the 14 are vet fully provided for. For these fortunate ones, Nos. 9, 10 and 14, no further contribution sked.

CRIPPLED A;}]l\l CONSTANT Crippled to the point of total physi- " eal disability, the father of this family of wife and three children is unable | to provide for them any longer. ““There is nothing but pain,” said the man to the social worker as she found him trying to divert himself as best he could. The doctors cannot say what his chances of recovery are ‘These will doubtless be improved if the man's mind can be relieved and if he can be assured that his wife and children will not suffer.

When this family first came to the attention of the Associated Charities they were living in an insanitary shack. The children showed the ef- fect of a long period of underfeeding. The school attendance of the older ones was irregular, with the usual re- sult that they were far behind in their grades. Since coming under the care of the Associated Charities mat- ters have improved. The ‘amily is properly housed, the children of school age attend thelr classes regularly and already show the good effects of suffi- clent food and hygienic living.

The father of this foreign family is making a strong fight to “come back. He was persuaded to take the "cure for tuberculosis if the Associated Chari- ties would look after his family.

Her neighbors, many of whom are also foreigners, but with small incomes, are interested in the welfare of the wife-and children and lend a helping hand. Twenty dollars a week is needed until the, father is able to come home and take up the family support, which he will have to do very gradually untii his health is restored.

As the convicted Germans were non- dents of the town, he said, it was apparent that they had gone to Ger- merscheim for the purpose of pro: voking' trouble. Roucler was cleared by a French court-mart on charges of Kkilling one German and wounding two others, while several Germans were convicted for striking at him.

(., December 23.— The State Highway Commission will recommend a $30,000,000 highway bond issue to the Legislature, which meets next month, Frank Page, State high way - commissioner, announced last night. The announcement followed an all day meeting of the commission and a conference between Commissioner Page and Gov. McLean. Gov. McLean declined to comment on the recommendation, saying his views would be expressed in his mes- sage to the General Assembly. Charles Ross, highway commission attorney, said in event the $30,000,000 issue was passed, it would mean retire- ment of county loans to the highway commission on a pro-rata basis.
