CITY'S POOR
Remedial Loan Office Suggest
ed at Social Welfare
Conference
MANY SPEAKERS
FAVOR THE IDEA

A proposal for the organization of
a Remedial Loan Association, to
loan money to those in temporary
need who have not the security neces-
sary to secure loans at a bank, and
TO loan 1t at as low percentage as
VIII pay for the support of the Asso-
citation, was the concrete proposal
made at last nights session of the
Delaware State Conference on Social
We'll are held yesterday afternoon and
evening in the Temple of Truth.
Caleb E. Burchenal said a friend had
promised the free use of his office
as a place to transact the business Of
the as ociation, and he thought the
Dhilanthropic workers of the city
should ask for contributions Of
money, or else a loan POM the city,
TO be reloaned. and to pay for a
safe, posting of books, etc. Mr..
Burchenal. George B. Miller the
business men of the city ought to be
asked to finance such an organiza-
ton, as they would profit by the tn
creased efficiency of their employees,
who would be relieved Of the mental
strain of inability to meet special
emergencies. T. Allen Hilles said
that his company had done consider
able in this line for its employees.

poi ted to consider the organization
of a Remedial Loan Company: r.
Allen Hilles, Miss Margaret H Shear
man. j. Harry Gordon. Caleb L.
Burchenal, DR.. Albert Robin.
Mr. Gordon said that the Hebrew
Charities of this city have loaned out
a great deal of money to such emerg-
ency cases, and have rarely lost a
cent The visiting speaker, Dr. A J.
McKelway, of Washington, Southern
Secretary of the National Child Labor
Committee gave numerous instances
showing that borrowers of this class
pay their loans nine times out of ten
Help is Needed.
In his speech, Mr.. Burchenal sait
that with the driving out of the loar
Offices from Wilmington, the poor
were at a loss how to borrow money
to meet special demands; as they
owned no real estate for security, anC
their neighbOrs, as poor as themselves
would not be accepted as indorserS
by bank. There was danger in Viii
mington, he said, of their becoming
slaves to the Landlord shark" Mr.
Burchenal read a letter from Pitts

showed the extent of the loan busines
in this city, by saying that one firm
in the four months in which the Law
and Order Society were driving ou

the Ministerial Union, the city being
divided into eight districts for tie
purpose, each district under the
charge Of a committee.
DR.. A. ]. McKelway reviewed the
advance made III the protection of
children, women and men, in labor
He said the Delaware Child Labor law
was fairly good, but everybody knew
it was not enforced. He said this was
no fault of the inspector, that a state
which paid an inspector insufficiently
so that he had to take other work In
addition to earn his living, could not
expect him to enforce the law with
any thoroughness.
Need Protection for Women.
Referring to the bill regulating wo-
mems labor, which passed the last
Delaware Legislature but was not
signed by the Governor, DR.. Nickel
way said that he did not see what
there was at all drastic about the bill
He said it was a disgrace to Delaware
that she was one of the very few
states In the Union which had no law
protecting women except a statute de-
manding seats for women employees in
some occupations-also not enforced.
Among many resolutions passed by
the Conference, was one asking the
Board of Education to consider ap-
pointing a school nurse. William p.
| Bancroft said he thought they ought
to ask for higher taxes rather than
asking the Board to do things when
it had no money to do them. Another
resolution asked for central registra-
tion by churches and charitable So
cieties of names of applicants coming
to them for relief, so that all would
know each case and not overlap. Care
by the State Of its blind and deficient
children was also urged, and suitable
/ quarters for the Juvenile Court
At the afternoon session the Rev
T. p. Holloway spoke on cooperation
between charitable organizations, to
discover professional beggars, and to
prevent waste that they might have
more to help worthy cases Miss Ru-
pert, assistant secretary of the Phil
/ adelphia Charity Organization, spoke
on Central Registration Bureau
Mrs. A. d. Warner spoke on outdoor

ESCAPED TERRIBLE FIRE
Happy Combination Saves
Guthrie From Destructive
Conflagration

Through happy combination OF
circumstances Guthrie was last night
safed from a terrible fire. Ain in
explcable blaze at lis West Oklaho~
ma avenue. near the middle Of solid
block Of business houses, was put
out with small damage
About S.45 y m. an alarm was turn
ed in by some unknown person. The
report was that Farqunafs0n' cloth
ing store two doors east OF rs, was
on tire A few SECONDS of valuable
time were lost in that way The fire
men found the building hot and full
Of rank pine smoke and they locat-
ed the blaze and crawled along the
floor with chemical apparatus. No
water was thrown.
The fire evidently started between
the ceiling Of G. r, Esenschmidts
store and the floor Of the photo
gfaph galary of Page ard Company
a strip about ten feet long was burn
ed through bo,h floor and ceiling. It
VISA the falling embers in the shoe
store chat attracted the attention Of
a passerby. The blaze destroyed the
floor and ceiling merely between two
Joss, eighteen inches apart, eating
most of the way across the room.
The blaze was hot enough TO break
the big window glass in the west side
of the stock room of the studie.
This let in the ferocious northwest
wind, which was at It's height at
that time The flames were getting
fair start on the Photographic sup
plies, among which were chemicals.
The actual damage, however, was
confined to the floor and to papers
ard frames and a little Of the wood
work A minute of two more, with
lae window broken and the skylight
cracking. would have caused the fir
ing OF the entire second floor and
caused at least immemo damage by
water. 1t is the belief of Chief Cru
ber and others that il the fire had
gained two m1lutes headway the en-.
tire block and probaly the block fac
| ,ng it would have been in very great
danger of destruction The wind was
very high. AT a late hour of the
night the fire might nave not been
noticed in time
The building is the property OF
Mrs NJ. S. Black, and she carries $5,.
700 insurance q. II Eisenschmidt
carries $4,000 insurance Oh HIS stock
and fixtures, the Page compaay has
$4C0 insurance; Dale and Bierer car
ly $150o on their office fixtures, and
w. NJ Bronson has $500 on his office
The damage will probably be not
more than $25.
The origin Of the fire is hardly to
be explained.
