To these must be added the consid-

in the shape of subscriptions to in

associations and to particularly pow

pose of providing gifts for the troops

WAR RELIEF IN BERLIN
By Alderman job. Sassenbach, Berlin.

BY Alderman job. Sassenbach, Berlin
The war commenced on the second
OF August and as early as the fourth
Of the same month two magisteria]
bills which deal with war relief
were placed before the meeting of the
Berlin Town Council. First of all a
sum Of million marks (about 81, $780,.
OO0) for the procuring of flour, GER
calls and other foodstuffs was asked
for. Then it was proposed to con-
tribute from municipal funds an addi-
tlonal 100 per cent towards the
amount to be paid by the State in
support Of the families of combatants
The cost of this contribution was es-
timated to amount at the beginning
to $4,000 marks per month. At
tention was, however, called to the
fact that expenses would considerably
increase later on. Both bills were
accepted unanimously.
Regarding the supply of foodstuffs,
commission empowered with far
reaching authority was appointed a
week later which had the right to
make purchases without consulting
the formerly competent authorities.
1t is to be assumed that this commits
sion has by nosr; several times ex-
pended the amount originally voted
for foodstuffs. =
These stores are not intended to
reduce the market in foodstuffs they
are on the contrary, meant above
all for reserves to be used in case
stoppage Of supply occur.
After another week the principles
were laid down, according to which
officials, employees and workmen Of
the town had been summoned to mill
tary service, were to be treated. The
pay of officials must continue ac-
cording to law, employees are to re-
ceive from one quarter to three quar-
tiers OF their salary, according to their
term of service. Provision was made
to assist the workmen, if need be,
beyond the support granted to them
by the state and community. This
proposal was changed by the commit
tee in charge in as far as the total
support of the men summoned to mil
1tary service was to amount to, at
least, half, at the outside, however, to

The resolution passed at the end Of
! August. regarding the granting Of re-
lief to the unemployed was OF parti-
cular importance for the reason that
it gave rise to the hopes that the
measure will outlast the war and agi-
tation Of years has been unable to
achieve.
Relief is to be granted to:
(a) Employees and workmen who,
in spite Of capacity and desire for
work, are unable to find employment.
(b) TO the smaller trades-and
craftsman and those not belonging
to any calling, who under present
economic conditions are unable to
support their families.
For persons who have to support
children the assistance amounts to s
marks per week, for others to 4
marks. To persons who receive reg
u1ar support from an Employer or
an unemployed relief organization
assistance is given in the form of a.
contribution Of so per cent IN addi-
ton to the relief granted by the or
sanization; the proviso is, however,
attached thereto, that the sum
granted by the unemployed relief or
ganlzation together with the NUM-
cipal addition amount to at least 5
marks or 4 marks per week, respec-
lively. Should the RELIEF granted by
the organization together with the
municipal contribution exceed the
amount of IL marks per week, the
additional support is reduced.
In September a Berlin War Loan
Fund" (Kriesbeleihungshasse) for
secondary mortgages was founded
with the cooperation Of the munich
pality. The purpose of the society
Is to grant credit on secondary mort
cages or mortgages on land pledged
to this society. This applies only to
cases where the need for credit is
caused through the war.
At the beginning of November a
rent assistance to the families Of COM
batants was resolved on, estimated
to cost 2about 100000 marks per
month. This rent assistance was ex-
tended at the end OF November. to
persons unable to earn their liveli-
hood and to the unemployed. This
rent assistance is granted according
to the same principle as that ex-
tended to the families of combatants;

And yet Robert Lincoln frankly admitted in his
