THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C, M ICLELLANTALS ONRELEF SUNDAY Pepco President Will Be Main Talker Before Cit- izens’ Session. Dr. William McClellan, president of the Potomac Electric Power Co. will make the principal talk at the citizens’ mass meeting in behalf of the unem- ployed, which will be held Sunday at 4:30 pm. at the First Congregational Church, Tenth and G streets. Cole- man Jennings, chairman of the com- mittee of 25 which has called the mass meeting, will preside. More and more statistics of families = living in one room—some of them = basement rooms—who are without = funds, food or fuel, reported yesterday, spurred the committee to renewed ac- tivities in preparation for Sunday’s mass meeting. The plight of these families is being brought out by the survey conducted through the joint fforts of the Family Service Associa- = tion and the Washington Federation = of Churches. It is estimated that an additional = $100,000 a month of relief funds would = be necessary to take care of these “em- 2 ployable” people until the beginning = of the next fiscal year. It is also esti- £ mated that an additional million dol- & lars of relief funds will be necessary = if they are to receive help during the = next year. It is hoped that efforts < will be made, as & result of Sunday’s --mass meeting to induce the Commis= sioners and Congress to supply this ~money. < Original Figure $1,465,000. So far, it was pointed out yesterday, e only move toward changing the 2amount of relief funds available for Znext year was the reduction of the Tamount sent to Congress by the Budget = Committee. The original District bud- et called for $1,465,000 for public re- ef of unemployables next year. The ouse bill reduced this amount to 411,000, and so far has made no Sprovision for the extra million dollars zneeded to help the so-called ‘“em- oyables.” Other cities of comparable size to vashington help these people,” Chair- man Jennings said yesterday.
