BALTIMOR & OHIQ 8:15 A M. | Rate Is Considerably Higher Here Than in New York and Boston. Washington's expenditures for relief work in November, 1930, increased 6.9 ities, acco: by the Russell Sage Foundation of New York. Since then, Community Chest officials said today, expenditures have increased just as much if not higher. Washington is listed as having given relief in November to the amount of $24,233 to 942 families, showing an in- crease of 21.2 per cent over October, 1930, in the number of families aided. A compzrison of the figures of No- vember, 1929, and November, 1930, shows an increase of 4 per cent, the sum of $23,222 being expended for re- lief in the former period and $24,233 for the latter. New York City reported an increase of 14.3 per cent in the number of fam- illes aided, and 2.9 per cent in the amount of relief given in the month of November, 1930, over Octcber, 1950. v th nearly twice the pop- ton, had & relief in- b 1830, he preceding month, and its per cent of families aided, 25.6 per cent, was but slightly higher than Washington. Marked Rise in Country. Thus Washington ranks with Cleve- land, Buffalo, Rochester, Baltimore and other large industrial cities {n its urgent need for relief. Conditions throughout the country | showed a continued marked rise. “With the increase in unemployment, special emergency organizations have sprung up in a number of cities to as- sume a share of the relief burden,” the foundation report asserts. “Abundant evidence of the increasing burden of unemployment is furnished by cities in every geographical area. “Direct relief of $4,920,082 was given to 209,016 families by 343 agencles re- porting from 79 cities. As compared with October, these figures represent increases of 27.9 per cent in total fam- ilis aided and of 12.9 per cent in total relief given. If relief through ‘made work' were included the total figures would reveal much larger gains between October and November. Demands Double Over 1929. “Despite the fact that relief agencies in general had already begun to feel the effect of unemployment a year ago, the November, 1930, level was more than twice as high as November, 1929. With only normal seasonal gains in the ensuing Winter months, materially high levels ars to be expected.” Joseph D. Kaufman, chairman of the speakers’ bureau of the Community Chest, has been invited by Rabbi Abram Simon to outline the Community Chest campaign at the regular meeting of the Washington Hebrew Congregation at the Eighth Street Temple Friday night. Mr. Kaufman will speak in conjunction with the regular religious services at | the temple. ‘“‘Because of the Jewish organizations which are supported by funds supplied by the Community Chest, the success of the Chest is a matter of the utmost interest to every Jew in Washington. The Jewish race, like every other in America, has been affected by the un- employment crisis, and its members are exceedingly anxious that Washington, through the Chest, shall make adequate provision to care for this situation “We expect to have speakers before every Jewish congregation in Washing- ton during the time between now and the end of the campaign,” Mr. Kauf- man said, “and to see that every per- son of the Jewish race in Washington is acquainted with the increased needs of the Chest this year, which are most~ ly due to unemploym * —_—.

THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C., WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 14, !931'; CHEST SUCCESS SEEN IN PLAN OF DOLLAR-FOR-DOLLAR GIFTS Bank- Official Tells How Business Put Drive Over Elsewhere. Sacrifices Like Those in War Time Needed, Says Lanier | McLachlen. E BY LANIER P. McLACHLEN. President District Bankers' Association. Corporations and business firm: matching dollar for dollar with th employes in contributions to the Cor munity Chest will, in my opinion, be | one effective means of reaching the | |goal so sorely need:d in Washington | this year. | There is ample precedent for action of this kind. The Cleveland' Chest, one | of the outstanding successes of the past | year, blazed its way to the top by rea- | son of many such double-barrelled ferings. In fact, a large number of companies pledged two dollars for every one contributed by employes. “This is a splendid exemple for Wash- ington to follow. The plea, or rather the excuse, of busincss depression will be heard on al] sides for the failure to | give. Undoubtedly it will mean sac- | rifice for both individuals and business firms to help support the Chest, but the old war-time slogar ‘Give till 1t hurts,” should be resurrected. | Grave as Stress of War, Even if it does “hurt” we must re- | member that we are facing a situation | equally as grave as the stress of war, | even though less spectacular on the surface.

It is futile for us to draw aside and say this is no concern of ours. It 1s definitely our job to help aileviate this distress, each according to his means. One frequently hears nowadays “I can- not afford” this or “I cannot afford” that. But there are some things which a city cannot afford to neglect. One is the task of caring for the needy within its gates, If we ignore the problems before us | now they will become cumulative.
