For a Knew: DETROIT “DOLES™ MAY BE SLASHED [Impossible tc Continue on Present Scale, Say Some Officials. By the Associated Press. DETROIT, July 1.—A sharp cut in Detroit's expenditures for “doles” to families of the unemployed was in pros- pect today as the beginning of a new fiscal year found some city officials frankly stating that it will be impos- sible to continue operations on the pres- ent scale. An estimate of the cost of relief through ‘the Public Welfare Depart- ment at $20,000,000 during the last 12 months was made by Willlam P. Bradley, member of the City Council, who took the initiative in the pro- posal to shave expenses. The estimate was some $1,500,000 higher than any previously made. $300,000 July Limit Proposed. ‘Bradley proposed in a resolution that the expenditures during July be limited | to $300,000, less than one-third of the | June total, and that the welfare de- partment be directed to plan to get along with less than that sum in August. The resolution was pre: to the council last night, and five of the nine councilmen indicated their | support of it. It went over, under | council routine, for consideration later | in_committee of the whole. Bradley's move came after the city discovered that it would be unable to shift the welfare burden to the county government, & contemplated move which would have spread a part of the taxes sgaing industries outside the corporate limits. Another blow at the extensive relief program of Mayor Frank Murphy ap- peared in prospect as the council de- fll | ferred action on the mavor's veto of a resolution directing that _municipal 1 ses be closed. One of the members was absent from last night's meeting on account of illness and sup- porters of the resolution indicated that with his presence they would have the six_votes necessary to override the veto. The municipal lodging houses, for homeless unemployed men, were an in- novation of Mayor Murphy soon after his election last September. I NAVY ORDERS l Lieut. Comdr. Cornellus W.

BIRTH RATE BLAMED UPON LIFE OF CITIES| AWS IS PLANNED Children Only Afterthought There, Census Expert Says, Predicting Further Decline of 50 Per Cent. By the Associated Press. Blame for a decreasing American birth rate has been laid by Warren 8. ‘Thompson, census expert, to the Amer- ican city. In citles, he says in & monograph, children are an afterthought. In the country there is a place for them. “Not life, not living, but things con- stitute the ultimate realities of city life,” he believed. “Tangible, countable, cumulative things are criteria of suc- ocss. Comparing unmarried men in the city and country, he writes: Celibates Succeed in City. “A man can live comfortably, even luxuriously, in the city as a celibate. ‘There is scarcely a job of any kind in the city at which one cannot succeed more easily and quickly without a wife, to say nothing of children. The opposite 1s true in the country. There the bach- elor does not find 1is easy. Without ving a wife and homemaker he is lonely and uncomfortable and does not succeed :}'an"“m for eschewing wife and ehil- aside as relatively incon: e ‘l‘mflofl Brushing sequential other elements, summarized the situstion this way: Predicts Drop in Ratio. “United State village population had & ratio of 44 per cent greater than |sessio the city population when number of children under 5 were compared to number of women between 40 and 44.
