The OREGON STATESMAN, Salem. Oregon, Tuesday Morning, June 5, 1934 PAGE THREE After Chicago's Two Greatest Conflagrations RELIEF SET-UP County FERA Secretary Has Session at City Hall Each Thursday WEST SALEM, June 4. Some changes have recently been made in the administration of relief in West Salem and instead of those desirous of aid going to the home of Mrs. Elmer Cook as hereto fore, they now go Thursday morn ings to the city hall, wrhere they meet Mrs. Charles N. Bilyeu of Dallas, who now has charge of the matter. Mrs. Bilyeu Is field worker and secretary of the executive com mittee of the Polk county unit of the Federal Emergency Relief. She is also secretary of the Polk county chapter of the American Red Cross, a volunteer office. Members of the executive com mittee for Polk county were ap pointed by the governor and in clude Leif S. Finseth. chairman of Dallas, Ira Powell of Monmouth. Walter Gerth of West Salem, Mrs. George Van Santen of Dallas and the three members of the Polk county court, Judge G. L. Hawk ins, Frank Farmer and C. C Gard ner. All of these except Mrs. Bil yeu who puts in full time, serve without pay. Committee on lrlce. In order to unify the situation, and to avoid possible charges of profiteering and to meet federal requirements there Is now a price fixing committee, composed of three grocers elected by the gro cers of the county and two mem bers of the relief committee ap pointed by the chairman. Grocers sign an agreement to sell the com modities listed at the price fixed being allowed 12 per cent over cost. Those on the equalization boaj-d are Ivan Warner and P. J, Voth of Dallas. Mr. Calbreath of Independence, W. B. Genh, West Salem and Judge Hawkins, of the county court. Any merchant sell ing to these families must sign a vendor's certificate under the NRA. The amount allowed, any fam ily is budgeted according to the number, age and occupation of those in the family. Under or dinary circumstances a family of four is granted about 3.00 per week. In West Salem these requisi tions may be made upon any West Salem store the beneficiary de sires, with flour, butter, cereal and sometimes salt or smoked pork in addition to the grocery list. These commodities are fur nished by the federal government and when necessary are stored at Gerth's stcre. Few Calls Now Mrs. Bilyeu states that there are fewer cases needing help now than formerly and the next two weeks will probably see still few er cases asking, aid, only three or four new families requiring aid in the past several weeks. The present federal emergency committee acts for the combined national, state, county and local agencies to unify the relief sit uation under one head. Wherever possible Red Cross personnel has been utilized but all records and funds are entirely separate from federal relief, but it avoids dup lication of effort. In addition to the foregoing re lief statements in regard to foods, there is. a small depository for dry goods in the Robertson building and Mrs. Guy C. Newgent has charge of the distribution of cloth ing, dry goods, and such furnished last year by the Red Cross, in ad dition to local contributions. Al though the supply is not adequate, there has not been a call for such necessities for a week. ft' , - X, - ft 'I , I - v - y-0 , If ' - " x-"A '' if 1 ' " : - " : - hyi -- 1934 i ' S i r 1 V"' , I 'Sis. i?P&7ii5& tteM - c: ' ; -r,- -; 43 ra HE ftltS 10 FISH Program for Independence Group Will Be Held Friday Morn INDEPENDENCE, June 4.
