And in eveat there was any duplications in relief It was caused largely by the Community Service Itself, us ing other investigators and by not .reporting their relief to the exist ing organizations which had been charged with the work. . "The Associated Charities therefore keenly regrets that the Community Service has at least for the. time being reversed Itself from Its high and original purpose as a financial agency and of grow ing Into a community chest organ ization putting all relief and be nevolent organizations of Salem on a budget basis."
