 In the organization of the Asso ciated Charities of double, bar relied" Nogales, Monday night, those taking an active part have done more toward solving the unemployed and other needy problems in this community, than has ever been attempted here.
 In all the large cities of the country, the Associated Chari ties has always been the institu tion relied upon to handle all problems where the poor and sick are concerned. The Asso ciated Charities of San Francis co is one of the best known organizations of it's kind in the United States, the idea of the board of directors being copied by nearly all of the big citities. Many of the plans of the Asso- cisco, because of the fact that mixed population will be care for here, are to be put in action by the Associated Charities of Nogales.
 The Associated Charities of Nogales will have on the Board of Directors, a representative from every church, fraternal and social organization in Nogales, Arizona and Nogales, Sonora.
 Rev. O. A. Smith, of the Con gregational church who has been appointed executive secretary of the Associated Charities will es- tablish an office in the city where all charity cases may be reported. It is more than pro bable that the city and county will:pay salary to Rev. Smith as it is the object of the execu: tive committee of the Associated . Charities to keep down the over head expenses, all money col lected being needed to help E those in distress.
 Within few days, the execu. tive committee will announce the plan of faction and the charitab ble work of the city which has fal- len on many bands in the past will be cared for by the Asso ciated Charities, which organiz ation has a comprehensive plan of action. @
