Committee Bethany Home Report.
Following is the report in full of the
committee whose recommendations for
the county support of needy children
taken at the Bethany Home yesterday
was adopted by the board:
I'VE, your committee appointed at
the March meeting of the board of
supervisors for the purpose of investi-
eating the proposition of the Bethany
Home association. would respectfully
report:
THAT we met March 23 and visited
the home of said association and eX-
amined as to the manner of conducting
said institution and were very much
impressed with the necessity for the
maintenance of such an institution in
our midst; and would also report that
we have investigated as to the liability
of the county in reference to children
which might be sent to said home by
different courts of this county, and find
that so far as we have been able to
learn the county is not liable for the
keep of such children at this institu-
ton. but we also find that section 23
of chapter 107 of the revised statutes
provides that where any poor or indi-
gent person does not require to be sup
ported wholly by the county, the over
seer of the poor may. subject to such
limitations as may be provided by the
county board. render temporary relief
without it's being committed to the
poor house.
Temporary support.
We would therefore recommend
that such children as are by the over
seer of the cities of Rock Island and
Moline and of the supervisors of the
different townships of this county
found to be in need of temporary sup
port. and where said children can be
taken by said association. that the
board authorize the overseers of said
cities and supervisors of the different
townships to extend such help for such
temporary relief as to this board may
seem just and right; and that as TO
this amount we have investigated as
thoroughly as possible and would rec
ommend that said OverSeer and super
visors be allowed 10 extend aid not to
exceed S1.75 per week per child. and
we would further recommend that said
overseers and supervisors furnish said
association an order for said amount at
