Knights Of Columbus Relief Com
uttee Of San Francisco terminated
their labOrs and adjourned sine die
We have arrived at the conclusion that
the work which we were called upon
10 assume has passed. We have re-
iieved all the distress Of our brothers
whose cases We're made necessitous by
The April disaster. We feel that any
cases which might present themselves
lu the future viii come from other
causes than the late calamity, and that
they should be borne by the proper
local council We wish to have II
known that we learned upon investiga-
Ton that the number Of applications
relief made upon our board fell far
sort Of that upon any other fraternal
orEanization IN our midst The knights
here were among the earliest to re-
habilitate. This statement is support
ed by the fact that, though the knights
were hit as hard as any other class OF
our citizens, only $4,000 approximately
was used by Us in relief work, despite
the fact that nearly 100000 was
known 10 be subject to our call.
Our books show that we actually
received s60.67L13. There is a letter
from New York State with a check
for $500 held up through a miscal-
culation in respect to location and
Identification BIr. Clarkin OF the New
york State Council has been duly in
formed about IT,
I'VE have used $15,Se1S5 Hence
we are preparing to send back to you
