more than $300,000 a vear. seventv-
five per cent of which went to sal
aries or "Investigators, whose chief
work was obtaining jobs for depend

tained were washing and scrubbing,
laborious work which ruined the
mother and broke up the family.
Thousands of families were broken
up in this way. The technical courj
charge for breaking up th0 family,
however, was truancy deliouency.

The facts nre that poverty was the
