The following resolutions and recon-

ITO the officers and members of the
New Jersey State Association of
Postoffice Clubs:
Gentlemen: We, the committee APP
pointed at our last convention, held at
Passaic, N. j., for the purpose of look
ing into the ACCESSIBILITY of establishing
an immediate relief fund In conjunction
with our State Association, after care
full consideration submit the following
as our report:
1--WE would recommend that an i'm
mediate relief fund be established on
the following basis;
THAT each clerk in joining this fund
shall pay SO when he joins to the sec
rotary of the branch of which he is a
member; 81 to be sent to the secretary
| treasurer of this fund, to be held by
him in readiness to be paid upon salts
factory proof of the death of a mem
Der. The other dollar to remain in the
hands of the local secretary, This in
turn to be sent to the secretary-treas-
urer of this fund as soon as notice of
death is received by the branch. p
'The local secretary shall then post
notice of such death, w~hereupon it will
be the duty of each member of this
fund to pay 81 to the local secretary.
In this way 50 is always on hand.
THE committee recommends the
adoption of this immediate relief fund
for the following reasons:
mo. There is no time SO oppor-
tune or when a helping HAND is more
needed than at the death OF a husband,
father or a son, who has been sick pos
sibly for weeks, with expenses doubled
and income stopped.
mo. 2-The committee believes that
while the giving of flowers and such
remembrances are pleasant and COM
forting in their way, they wither in
IL udy. therefore, your committee be-
lieves that a check at a time like this
would be just as pleasant and COM
forting and would be much more SUBJ
stantial for paying doctors bills and
funeral expenses.
mo. 3-The committee recommends
this relief fun because of its furnish
ing the funds on the very day the
death occurs, and because it is cheap
and comes in such gradual payments
that none would feel them and with
satisfaction that he had contributed a
dollar to the wife, child or mother of
one of his brothers when it is most
needed"
