Unemployed
Jew Bottom, Chcago's bread lines

the municipal lodging house is 500 per
cent greater than last winter. Officers
of the United Charities assert that
they handled "a more requests in the
first eight days Of this December than
in the entire month a year ago. They
also say $500 skilled workers are out
of employment in South Chicago. and
that 10000 others are on half time.
The total unemployed are estimated at
from 10000 to 100000.
Municipal employment is one OF the
suggestions urged upon Mayor Harrt-
son by his commission on the unem-
ployed. The commission has passed
the followia PROSECUTIONS:
1.-The committee on unempioy-
nent is convinced that a very large
number OF persons in Chicago are at
present out Of work-a number SO
large as to constitute q grave indus
trial and social situation.
2-Temporary relief, such as food
and shelter, should be at once under
taken for the really needy cases. Such
relief should be undertaken by the
municipality or through existing relief
agencies.
3-The committee is further con-
vinced that 4 large proportion Of the
unemployed are worthy and deserving
persons, who desire work rather than
charity
4-Therefore the committe recon-
mends that the city take Immediate
steps TO consider the feasibility OF es-
tablishing some form of municipal EN-.
ployment for as many OF the unemploy-
ed as possible at a fair wage, prefer
ence to be given those having
families dependent upon them.
- Tha- the mUnicipai lodging
house be instructed to prepare at once
a list of ali available men for emer-
gency street cleaning Jobs, that men
may quickly and without expense to
themselves be given such work.
One Chicagoan, who Is some hing OF
a practical philsathropist. pointed cut
that this city is annually becoming
more popular as-a winter resort for
men who are generally classified as
Unemployed
Chicago is not only the grea-est
railroad center in the world, but also
the worlds greatest labor agency"

he said. The idle men are eacn spring
shipped to the west by the railroads.
When winter threatens and the
ground hardens they are shipped back
here. That means many thousands of
annual winter citizens to start with.
People who are claiming any
where from 10000 to 100000 idle men
in Chicago should figure that in a city
of 100000 inhabitants there are al
ways about 5000 or 5000 unemployed,
shifting jobs, moving in, etc.
Another feature that adds to this
phase of our population which de-
mands food, lodging and clothing is
the attitude of cities to the eastward,
like Buffalo, Cleveland, Toledo, etc.
They do not permit this class to re-
main and drive or transport them on
toward Chicago. 1t is now known to
every transient worker in the country
that there is no rock pile in Chicago
