Overhead Cost But
9 Per Cent of Sum
Expended in Belief
The public welfare bureau last year
spent S81.97S for material relief of fami
lies in need. It spent an additional
117,778 for service relief, by which is
meant the pay of trained visitors en
gaged tn family rehabilitation. It spent
for overhead or administrative expense
$10,650. including salaries of general sec
retary, stenographers, record keeper
and supplies.
The overhead was a little more than
9 per cent of the SUL401 total spent in
family relief work. Service relief waa a
little more than 16 per cent- The SSl,-
401 went for food, clothing, fuel, shelter
and so forth. It include the county re
lief fund, which carried no salaries. The
year referred to Is the fiscal year of the
relief bureau ending September 30.
The facts quoted were presented at
the annual meeting of the public wel
fare bureau Thursday afternoon. Di
rectors were asked to use the figures In
refuting the report that aalaries eon
sume more than 50 per cent of the total
amount contributed for relief. That
family relief work without investigation
and without attempt to mobilize outside
resources and to stimulate self-dependence

assertions.
