LOS ANOBLB8, Deo. 8. F) The
del will be necessary In this country
If direct home relief, substantially as
now administered, Is permitted to be
abandoned, C. O. Chapman, editor of
the Oregon Voter, Portland, Ore., said
today.
Addressing a western division meet
ing of the Chamber of Commerce of
tha U. sited States, ne sam, -oniy di
rect relief, or the dole, Is within our
capacity to pay during the periods of
years In which unemployment relief
will have to be provided on a major:
scale." Public works would cost many 1
times what direct relief would cost
and could not be financed on a scale
adequate to provide unemployment
relief,' Chapman said.
Job Insurance No Cure.
. "Unemployment insurance is in no
sense the answer," he asserted.
Neither is the 30-hour week, nor
sharing the work.
"Only by holding the expense with
in available resources and balancing
our budget year by year may we be
assured that e can continue to pro
vide unemploymcns relief during the
years that It probably will be the
major expense item of government."
Chapman estimated major unem
ployment relief will be needed for at
least six more years. Local ana re
habilitation relief, he said, may be
necessary for several years beyond the
end of the six years,
He estimated relief will be required
for "more than 10,000,000 persons at
the seasonal peaks of several years.
This number may be reduced to as
few es 5,000,000 "five" or six years
from now, under favorable progress of
recovery."
Relief Costs Predicted.
The cost of direct relief, as at prea- j
wit, he estimated at within two bil
lions of dollars a year, "if present
unemployment is not greatly increas
ed," he said the dole would cost four
billions a year. Even this, he assert
ed, would be tar less than would be
involved in attempting to provide un
employment relief solely through
public works.
"We can learn much from England
concerning the dole and concerning
the inefflcacy of public works as a
olutlon of unemployment relief,"
Chapman said.
Chapman admitted that the dole
might cost 50 to 100 per' cent more
than direct relief as now disDurseu.'
"Neither the dole nor direct relief,"
he said, however, "are beyond the
taxpaying resources of business in its
larger sense if relief can be restrict
ed to this cost. It Is only when wo
get beyond direct relief, or beyond
the dole, that we begin to set up
cost and expenses that are likely to
be far beyond what business can en
dure as a taxpayer over a period of
