. GIVE $4,000
To AID POOR

The horrible specter Of starvation
for 46s poor children, wards of the
city, has been turned back by one
prompt response Of four public-spiri-
ted citizens to an appeal from the
District Commissioner for financial
aid.
AS result Of the prompt response
Of these citizens, the children will re-
main in the care of their foster
mothers" instead of being turned
over to a city which had no means
of caring for them.
The emergency. which resulted In
such serious breakdown. of govern.
mental machinery that the Commits
sioners had to appeal for public aid,
arose from the failure OF the Senate
to pass the second deficiency appro-
priations bill.
When the bill failed the Commits
sioners asked Comptroller General J.
r. McCarl for authority to use the
1928 appropriations for the emcr-
gency situation.
McCarl replied Saturday that there
was no way in which this could be
done. Commissioner Sidney F. Tai
iaferro, In charge Of the Board of
Public Welfare, got busy immedi-
ately.
