Capt. Asher gave a general statement regarding the organization’s income and | expenditures on a dollar basis in Wash- ington and explains that the Salvation Army will. at any time, furnish a cer- tified public accountant’s statement of | its financial affairs to any person de- | € siring to see it. The books are audited | each year by a well known firm of New | York. | Direct Appeals Bring Results. | The statement as to income shows | that 33 cents of every dollar obtained here is obtained by direct appeal. | Analysis of the expenditures shows family and transient relief. fresh air camp, emergency department for wom- en and Christmas relief, 21 cents on the dollar; character building and re- | ligious work, 14 cents: men's mi-l| service center and hotels for men, 49 cents.
