MORE NEED HELP,
 SAYS BROWN, THAN
 FOR MANY YEARS
Borough AImoner's Depart ment Denuded By Inces-
 sant Pleas for Food and Shelter

More want, need and hunger ex- ists in the city of Birmingham at present than has been known here m many years, Dr. Walter s. Brown, superintendent of the city department of relief and correc- ton, declared in a statement given out last night. He appeals to citi- zens to send funds to his depart ment to help those in need.
 Through unemployment, many who have never known hunger and want before are being forced to ask for bread, he asserts. Though the cry has not reached the public ear yet it is none the less real and genuine, suppressed by pride. the newness of the strange situation and the awk- wardness of being beggar when not professional one. according to Dr. Brown,
 v 800 in Need
 More than 500 cases have been in- vesti gated and are now in need of assistance, according to Dr. Brown. The relief need of his department has increased $500 to S700 per month in the last five months. and is still growing. Persons found in need now will in most instances be helpless to provide for themselves for days and months to come.
 Many pitiable instances come to my attention daily" said Dr. Brown. Hundreds are in need and too proud to say anything about it.
 '-The other day an lS-year-old mother came to my office. She had been deserted by her husband. Her 5-months-old baby looked very much like some of those pictured in the posters of the starving children of Europe, for whom mohey has been raised. Its growth has already been stunted It looks hollow-eyed and not larger than 2-months-old baby. The mother is an orphan and has no relatives She was sent to the PiS- xah Welfare home.
 Overburdened
 ~These cases are too numerous for us to handle all with our limited ana ecant resources. We need funds and gifts for relief of these sufferers. What is turned in will be handled wisely and given to needy home cases. It will not compete or overlap with the efforts of any other agency.
 s'To continue work on the scale now necessary. funds are badly needed.
