U. S. Paupers Get
Annually Two Acres
Of Land And 1884

Washington, Oct. q (AP) - The
average pauper in the United States
obtains an expenditure of $334.64 an
nually for maintenance and has 2.l4
acres of land cultivated for his sup
port. the department Of labor round
in averaging the varying figures from
states of the union.
The per capita value OF buildings
and equipments devoted to the paup-
er's care averaged $1,118.96.
States of the union were shown to
have widely different ideas as to
what and how much should be done
for their paupers. In Nevada, the
subsistence and maintenance OF
almshouse inmates cost per year
$S6510 per capita. In Alabama II
cost $1S7.53.
In South Dakota. the property in'
vestment in almshouses and aims
house farms per person cared for is
$500, while in Mississippi 1t is
$415.63.
One of the reasons for high cost,
the department said, is the large
number of small institutions devoted
to the care Of the poverty stricken.
1t was found that one-third of all
such establishments had less than 10
inmates, and one-half had less than
%.
