And now if it costs one million dollars a year to ke of widows from these ins are separated the children titutions who pm ther mothers only because of poverty, what of it? As against this one million dollars the city authorities have agreed to spend $25,000,000 for the Schoharie water plan that will not be realized UNLil 1937; $6,000,000 for the Gary &ehool system, and $5,000,000 for char- ities. ‘Paes are only a few items of many more millions as against the $1,000,000 needed in the conservation of little children by the ounce of prevention rather than the pound of cure. Besides, {t is significant that this! annual expenditure of one million dol- lars is a decided reduction in the cost | of widows’ pensions as estimated by the Comptroller a year ago tn his re- | port to the Legislature, when the law! Was pending. | MARKED DIFFERENCE IN COMP- | TROLLER’S FIGURES. | At that time the estimates con- | tained in his report were approx imately from $2,683,776 up to $22,- | 500,000 annually. | In view of this It is gratifying to, know that that $1,000,000 will pro- vide for all cases that come under! the law. Also, in the Comptroller's! estimate last year the cost of a child per month would average $14.14 un- der the Widows’ Pension Act.

According to the Comptroller's figures, 25 per cent. of the Char- ities Department applicants are referred to private charity. A large proportion comes to the Child Welfare Board. Many of them are widows’ cases now taken over by the Child Welfare Board.
