THE OSHAWA DALY TIMES, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 14, 1932 PAGE THREE re - anville Daily Timess {G. K. BROWN, Office Telephone No. 744 ~ WELFARE PLANY ARE DISCUSSED Many Interesting Sugges- tions Were Put Forward At Meeting The meeting of the various or- ganizations, societies and clubs called to convene with the Public Wellare Association in the town hall last evening, was very well attended. Col. L. T. McLaugalin, chairman of the Walfare Board, presided, and it was interesting to note that when the roll was cal'- ed, the number of organizations | totaled thirty-nine. Not all were represented as some had not had meetings since the request had been sent out. Col. McLaughlin outlined the object of the meeting, that of raising funds for relief of unem- ployed in the municipality. The 'Welfare Board, on making a sur- vey, has estimated that the am- ount required this winter will be three times greater than last win- ter, and they had as their objec- tive the sum of $5.000., which sum will be supplemented by the sums of five thousand each from the Provincial and Federal Gov- ernments, On the suggestion of the Central Welfare Committee, it was advised that all organiza- tions in each municipality co- operate, to the end that needless overlapping be eliminated and the work of relief be facilitated. The main item before the meet- ing at the present moment was the scheme or method by which the required amount could be raised No Administration Cost The chairman also assured the meeting that all funds wonld be faithfully applied and that there 'were no charges in respect to the administration of same, and it was the aim of the Board to sce that only the absolute necessities of life were provided as they did not wish to encourage idleness or pauperism. He stated that at the present time there were those who were destitute with no meal ahead of them, others without fuel or the necessary clothing for the colder weather, and the best means of appraising the general public of the dire need was through the public press and church pulpits. Secretary T. H. Lockhart gave an outline of the . work during the past three years and recount- ed some of the experiences en- countered. : Chas. Mason outlined a system Representative for canvassing the town, by divid- ing it into 35 sections. Mayor James suggested that more mon- ey might be raised by getting pledges for weekiy sumg of small amounts rather than by a larger sum at one time. Unusual Suggestion J. J. Gray, manager of the Dur- ham Textiles, offered a worthy suggestion that the Boatd make a survey of thé idle machines in the factories of the town to the end that unemployed men or wo- men might he put to work and the product of their labors har- tered for the things that they needed. He offered 8 machines in his own factory for the making of knitted wear, and suggested that there were machines in the Organ factory, and possibly ma- chines in other factories that might turn out useful goods which could be bartered for shoes, groceries, fuel, etc Mr. Nanson, speaking for the Goodyear Tire and Rubber Co., said that they had instituted shorter working hours in the slack seasons that more men might be given employment, and also suggested the man-a-block idea. R. M. Cotton, president of the Canadian Legion, offered the sug- gestion that as this was "Fire Prevention Week' that the un- employed be given the jobs of -City and District News- | STILL RIPENING Raspberries are still) braving the elements, Yesterday W, Jack- son, 61 Burk Street, picked a large quantity of beautiful ripe berries in his garden.

In humorous mood he | suggested that a percentage from the many bridge tables and games | in the town this season might | vield a good sum. A wood lot might also prove of value. The chairman asked the vari- ous representatives to submit names from their. organizations who would be capable and will- ing canvassers and they would then meet and plan their driv for the raising of funds As sever. al ladies were present it was Sug- gested that a women's auxiliary be formed with the object that they have in mind the providing and distribution of clothing VISITED T( YRONTO LODGE of the officers Jerusalem Lodge A.F.

BOARD OF HEALTH EXPENDITURES MOUNT UP OWING TO RELIEF WORK 'A tidal wave has over-whelmed the budget of the Board of Health" according to general information re- garding the condition of the Board's finances given to The Times this morning by the Medical Officer of Health, Dr. T, W. G. McKay, Ex- ecutive Officer of the Board. At last night's meeting of the Board attention was drawn to the heavy expenditures in connection with the provision of medical ser- vices as a relief measure, and this morning Dr. McKay wiés asked the direct question "How is the Board's budget working?" by this paper. "During normal times the. neces sary machinery was sct up to take care of providing medical relief, and this machinery seemed to operate 10 everybody's entire satisfatcion," said Dr. McKay.® "Then in 1929 the bot- tom fell out of things gene rally and conditions have been growing stead- ily worse.
