The minimum weekly food budget for

compared with $500 in the fall of 1914,
OF an increase of SO per cent. This ad-
vance in the cost of modest eating and

clothing are shown by Bailey B. Bur-
yltt. general director OF the New York
Association for Improving the Condition
OF the Poor, in a report to the board OF

the adoption of an increased budget
for the new fiscal year. The budget
as approved by the board called for a
total of 100000. or approximately
100000 more than was expended by
the association during the present year
FOR the relief of New York families.
