SAYS HIGH RENTS
 CAUSE OF POVERTY
Reduced Wages Inadequate to
 Meet Wartime Cost Of Homes

Although wages have come down, rents have remained at the present high price and many families are un- able to 10 make ends meet because of their inability to pay the war time rents, according to a report submitted by Miss Cora NJ. Bcalc, secretary of the New Britain Welfare Association, at q meeting of the directors last |evening.
 During the past three months there have been 2S7 applications for clothing Eeceived by this association, which is part of the United Commun- ities Corporation. Of these applica- tions 234 have been compiled with. In 234 instances it was shoes or a single garment, which was supplied.
 Report Figures
 The following is taken from the re- port of Miss Cora M, Bealc. secretary submitted at quarterly meeting last evening:
 Rents Too High
 Twelve of the twenty seven new cases in December. and I of the 22 in January came to onr knowledge for
  dustrial condition. However, in Feb ruary only four instances out of 22 were caused by unemployment.
 While we had 42 applications for work in the last three months, we were able to secure days work in nine instances and four permanent jobs, all for women. Repeatedly the women disappoint us by failing to keep their appointments and notify ing no one of the reason. One or two demanded too large pay and preferred no job to a low wage. Needless to say they had no second invitation. Most of the mothers are thankful to get work and some aTe so satisfactory that they are re-hired by their em- ployers again and again. In spite of a temporary slump in the factories during January, conditions have inn proved somewhat and the men of the families are gradually getting back to work, some of 45 and 50 hours a week. Rents remain, on the whole, so high that the lessened wage is inade- quate to meet expenses.
 The executive secretary being with out an assisting visitor during De- cember amid the holidays rush, only 49 calls were made in the homes or in behalf of the needy families In January and February we visited two hundred ffty-one different times, while volunteers made tWentX-eight calls. Clerical and research work oc- cupad 29 hours of volunteer service. | IIifty-one received $2S3.29 worth of material aid not counting the amount of $70.94 spent for new shoes after all possible had been supplied with partly worn ones. The Welfare Association was fortunate in organizing a large amount of aid at Christmas time, which aid, if not so generously met by our friends would necessarily have naG to come out of our own treasury This amount for tho three past months totaled s1061.O3.

EASTERN STAR PLAY

This Biblical drama given by
local Star members on Friday eve-
hing last, in the Auditorium, drew
a big audience, perhaps the larg-
est ever attending a play by local
talent in this city, and that is
saying something as they all are
liberally patronized and certainly
well deserving of the highest sue
cess they can attain.
Not much more than four weeks
ago Yale Chapter discussed
the question of staging a play.
The matter was definitely decided
in the affirmative and plans were
enthusiastically made and work
was begun on the committees, on
the play already in mind, and on
the cast Of characters and in
three weeks "The Dream of Es-
ther" was produced, to the entire
satisfaction and delight of the
audience, and we feel we are not
saying too much when we say
that the promoters themselves,
the artists themselves and all con-
nected have that satisfied feeling
that goes with thing they know
has been we'll done.
AS the Expositor has already
published the synopsis of the play
the cast of characters and the
sort of play it is, and everybody
witnessed it anyway, we see no
special need Of going into details
or of particularizing each charac-
ter. The scenery was realistic
and we'll adapted to the olden
times. The costumes were copies
of the Biblical robes as near as
might be and the characters were
splendidly represented by the
various ones chosen to take the
parts. q
The drama was lightened by
a group of Jewish children in
drill and merry song on the house
top, and also by eight Rose maid
ems with their rose wreaths, in
graceful step singing the Rose
song with Kama.
An orchestra gave an abund.
ance of excellent music before the
curtain rose and between acts
and the Star play, with an all
star cast and all-star action, was
over.
