LEGISLATION IS URGED
FOR DEPENDENTS CARE
National Chamber of Commerce Makes
Recommendations to Secretary Baker.

The National Chamber Committee Of
the Chamber Of Commerce of the United
States has recommended in report to
Secretary of War Baker. that federal
legislation be enacted providing for rea-
sonable separation allowances to be paid
to the dependents OF enlisted men Of
the army and navy. This compensation
would be based on the number Of de-
pendents in each family.
The report was made as the result OF
a request from Mr.. Baker in his capacity
as chairman of the Council of National
Defense. that the National Chamber in
Vestigate and report on the matter Of
voluntary civilian assistance in the care
of dependent families of men enlisting.
The National Chamber committee fur
ther recommends that the government
designate some national organization to
raise a general fund by voluntary public
subscriptions. 1t is suggested that this
fund be distributed by the organization
named for the allevistion of conditions
not adequately met by National or State
allowances.
