ASSOCIATED CHARITIES
EXPLAINS PENSION PLAN
Eight Opportunities" Relief
Project Consistent With Prin-
cipIes of Organization.

According to General Secretary Walter
5. ufford. several questions arise in con-
nection with the appeal which the As
ISOLATED Charities Is making under the
head of Eight Opportunities"
question number J.. he points out, is
why does not the Citizens Relief AS
ISOLATION aid in these families"
There are two answers Mr.. Ufford
says. I'm the first place, the funds of
the association are not sufficient to war
rant their concentration upon few
families, and. secondly, the funds are
raised primarily for emergcnt needs.
UP to Associated Charities.
when it becomes necessary, as in
these instances, to give continuing aid in
the form of regular pension, the Citi-
Gems Relief Association looks to it's col
league the Associated Charities. to as
sumo the respo' sibility. This has been
done for many years by Il system of
Special Case, Or Golden Book Funds
"The methods employed are described
at length In the annual report of the
Associated Charities which has just been
issued. Last year, for example the AS
sociated Charities disbursed about 5000
in these funds, the amount to individuals
ranging from less than $1UO to over 500
Another question Is: Have We not
II
did not give relief The answer again
is: The Associated Charities does not
give relief from It's general fund, but, as
explained before. assumes responsibility
for organizing relief for individual cases
of need by appeals to relatives, churches.
employers and all others upon whom q
particular dependent family may have
some claim.
"Relief and Adequate Relief"
"a cardinal principle Of the Associated
Charities is Relief and Adequate Re-
lief. The society is trying to remove the.

If so, it was printed. If not, it was omitted. As legis- lator, this same principle would dictate my course.
 1 am no advocate of radical measures, and would oppose all freak legislation. l would not undertake to change our form of government, but would expect to unite my efforts with the forces working for the development of my state. Each interest, whether manufacturing, mining, agricul- al, commercial, or religious, would be given every considera- tion necessary to promote the welfare of my people.
 1 am a democrat, never having voted any other ticket, or any part of any other ticket, in my life, and as to my position on all live questions, I will point you to the state platform to be adopted by the state convention at Little Rock in June. If elected, l shall endeavor to follow the path blazed out bv that body. On questions where it is silent, l shall use my own judgment, keeping constant ly in view the one thought, Will it help?"
 l have seven opponents. They are all nice gentlemen. There is not one of them but what I will support with my whole effort, should he be nominated.

If not, remember 1 want your vote, and you may consider this personal invitation to help me in my political ambitions. Most of you know me.

I should like to hear from you, and if any one wants to know my 1 position on any special thought they may have for the good of the country, I will gladly give it.
