MAccABEEs VOTE PER CAPITA
Money VIII 20 TO Benefit OF Home
and Relief Fund

BY vote OF "a to Il the supreme
tent OF The Maccabees, at the special
session which began Monday, in De
troit, at the Hotel Cadillac decided
to make the levy OF one dollar per
capita tax, on the members of the or
der, throughout the United States and
Canada, for the benefit of the Home
and Relief fund, compulsory. The
vote was taken after an afternoon OF
earnest debate and was the first inn
portant action of the supreme tent at
the present meeting.
This matter OF creating an ade-
quate relief fund has been before the
Maccabees for some time" said Sup
RENE Commander ID. r. Marley. but
not until this meeting has the matter
become an issue. Heretofore, con,
tribution TO the fund has been optional
with the old members, although 1t Is
obligatory with those now Joining the
order. In consequence there were
only 5000 to contribute. Not be
cause they did not believe in the fund,
but, rather, because there was no def
mite authority for its creation.
with this new tax voted we expect
in five years to have a fund OF $1,000
900 wherewith 10 provide pensions
and relief Il is not the policy Of the
Maccabees to establish special insti-
tutions for its members; therefore
the proceeds from the funds. which
we have voted to create, will be ex-
pended In providing aged members In
their own homes or in homes that are
already provided by the state or by
philanthropic agencies"
