OUTLINES NEED “OF WELFARE WORK Miss Beale Tels Why Commu- nity Should Have Organization Just what a welfare organization means to a community and the value of a community chest to any city is told in a report of the New Britain Welfare assoclation by Miss Cora M, Beale, executive secretary, which has Just been submitted to the directors, The Welfare association is one of 10 organizations participating in the drive for $62,000 to be started by the United Community corporation on March 23, The drive will start with a lunch~ eon at the Burritt hotel. Leon A, Sprague will be campalgn manager and Attorney Donald Gaffney will have charge of publicity, ‘The report of Miss Beale is inter- esting and explains how social work has changed from the custom in the rast of taking from the rith and giving to the poor. It is not charity any more, but a duty of every citi- zen, Miss Beale belleves. Her ro, port follows: . “C, M., Bookman of' Cincinnat, executive sccretary of the Commu- nity Chest and Countil of = Social Agencies, gave at the last year's na- tional conference of social work, ‘An interpretation of the Community Chest Movement,’ He says that we all recognize the need of economies, that we all realize that there is so much to do, and so little with which to do it. Social programs are not formulated to save money or to save | annoyance to givers; they are for-| mulated to bulld up social values in soclety, to make possible a better, happler people. Many of the high fileals born of the war have disap- peared, yet the federated plan of en- listing interest and support for so- cial ~worl . has continued. Why? We are all familiar with the loyalty of the few hundred givers to Individ- ual agencies before community chests were thought of. Those few hundred, through the community chest method, have Lecome thous- | ands, vitally interested in the broad- er social programs as well as in in- dividual agencies, Those thousands have: been able tb hold fast to at | least one ideal that grew out of the war—common service to humanity. | Then, the community chest plan has made possible scientific methods of | molding public opinion. Funds | have been provided with which to | carry on constructive educational programs, money with which o | bring to the attention of the entire community the social flls of “that community. One will find that there has grown in the cities having a community chest, a feeling on the part of the citizens that no one can he a-true citizen, and measure up to | the real responsibility of citizenship | it he fails to identify himself with | su movement, | “Bvery citizen has it in his heArt | to giye. He may find some objection | to Eiving but he realizes that he | owes a responsibility to the common | life of the community and that while sharing the opportunities of the | twentieth century civilization he must | accept the responsibilities that go ! with, them. | “Social work in the past has been larg§ly a matter of taking from the richdand giving to the poor. The | comthunity chest bases its appeal | upon common responsibility; asking | suggestion of a nelghbor or friend. Numerous ones are sent by other agencles and not the least of the work 1s that among families known outside our own city, Considerable time is used in connection with these out of town fnquiries, gather- ing information and help most necessary to the work of the so- clety concerned. 1t we fall down on this job soclal service in other Jommunities ivould suffer. We ap- preciate most fully good work done in other cities in responge to a New Britain request, L) “Oftentimes, were it not' for the cqnfidential exchange files, our work would be prolonged and made more difficult, Through this social serv- |ice exchange we are led to records of other welfare agencies. At the holiday season the confidential list is quite generally used by most so- clal workers in the city. Tts serv. fce 1s available during the entire year for eliminating duplication, saving time, expense and energy, The exchange consists of a card in- dex of familles and individuals known to the agencies who consent to use it. On these cards is identi- fication information only, that fs NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, FRIDAY, MARCH 13, 1925 BLACK FIGURES ON AN ORANGE FIELD ROR 1926 State Motor Vehicle Department Al- ready Plans For Next Year's Markers Hartford, March 13.—~The ' Con-. necticut motor vehicle department has already declded upon the color of motor vehicle markers for pleas- ure vehicles for 1926 an announce- ment of the department today made known, The specifications furnish- ed the Connecticut reformatory, MOTHER! “California Fig Syrup” addresses, allases, ages, agencies having circumstances, The cards contain no records or ac- the rich and the poor, the favored and unfortunate to share in the up- | building of community life. This | has ‘appealed to the man of small | means and he has grasped the op- | portunity to be a part of such a | movement. What was once the| task. of the privileged few has be- | come the job of the average man. “It is the sincere wish of the | Welfare Association of this city that | everyone in New Britain who is in- | terested in helping his fellowman shall understand just what‘the aims | and ideals of this organization are | and the means used in attempting | 1o attaln them. First, last and al- | ways it is necessary for us to em- phasize the object of the Welfare | Association. It is to serve. To| setve the individual, the family, | our go-workers, and the community | at a§y and all times, in any way we can. To serve in such a manner | that the real, underlying cause of | poverty, ill health, misery and fam-{ ily trials can be found, bettered anad | remedied, if possible. The way in which the result is to be obtained | may be financial relief, groceries or | clothing provided, rent paid, doctors | supplied or hospital care provided. | Often 1t 1s done by the procuring | of & job in hard times; the improv- ing ‘of home conditions in relation | to adolescent boys and girls; the mending of broken ties between near relatives, the boosting and heartening of a discouraged soul. | All service, a never ending service | which must be done by persons who can give their full time to such work, who are trained in dealing with the normal and the abnormal; | the results of Which Service can never be measured in coin but must necessarily be paid service. If re-| lief given for immediate needs is to | have any lasting value the greater item of service relief is indispen- sible. “The Welfare Association con- stantly goes forward toward a stand- ard of service which has for its final object, not just the temporary relief but the removal of the cause | which will tend to prevent a repe- | tition of the family breakdotvn, and will assume a future of happiness. | “Welfare workers are quite fa- millar with the arguments against reliet giving unless accompanied by good, sound case work, but until all those {gnorant of our aims and en- | deavors clearly understand the soundness of such policy, of salary expense for such service relief ren- dered, we must continue our ef-| forts to make it clear. ‘One reason for a continuation ot family welfare work is shown by | the fact that the numbers are ever | Increasing who need service. A| family case work organization does | not farnish its work in a few weeks or months in a family where there a growing children. ¥t may take | \ year of more to re-vstablish nor- al conditions, M @ ne fam- D ing of their o n accord or at the Dependable Laxative for Sick Baby or Child names of families, and names of all knowledge of the family, with the date of inquiry.

Any organi- zation becoming acquainted with a family for the first time or who wishes to rencw acquaintance with a family may inquire by telephone or the regular blank form. The confidential exchange ecards will show whether the family is already known to any other agency. Here its service ends. | “Although the winter months with their attending hardships of cold, iliness, and some lack of work, have brought the accompanying material necessities to the fore a little, yet the cry for aid is gen- erally less than in several years. The demand for service aid is never ending and as we press on, meeting new problems daily, we hope the community is profiting and our citi- | zenship hecoming more stable, our city’s standards a notch higher, and our children a step further toward the type of manhood we most want for our future leaders."
