GRAND RAPIDS PLAN
Of AID is SCRAPPED.
Michigan City Commission
Abandons Payment of
Workers in Scrip.

Nv the Associated Press.
GRAND RAPIDS, Mich, November
1s-The so-called Grand Rapids plan"
for relief Of the unemployed was
scrspped yesterday by the City Com
mission.
The commission voted to abandon the
use of scrip in paying workers on mu-
nicipal projects and to close the munich
pal store which redeemed the scrip.
Hereafter those working for the city
will be given cash, and cash also will
be given to persons on the welfare rolls
for whom no work can be found.
In the place of the municipal store
there will be several smaller commits
saries," but those receiving relief will
be under no obligation to trade with
them.
The commission estimated that as
much as $780, 900 will be saved in over
head expenses by abandoning the plan
which received national publicity and
which was adopted by many other
cities.
The Grand Rapids plan" was intro
duced three years ago by George w.
Welsh, then city manager. With slo-
gan of mo work, no relief" he created
municipal employment on various prof.
ectS and paid only in scrip. The plan
was subjected to much local criticism.
and a committee of business men after
an investigation condemned it as
wasteful.
Welsh resigned last Summer and
made an unsuccessful campaign for the
Republican nomination for Governor.

Miss Pickford has signed an actor
who is something other than just
first-class juvenile. The fact that
Mr.. Howard, who is regarded by
some as Broadway's major thespian,
joins the Pickford banner is cause
for great and loud rejoicing. The
film at once leaps out of the Polly
anna class. and threatens to become
a light and bright opus-with Miss
Pickford's somewhat abbreviated
curls playing handsome foil to the
potent maneuverings of actor Leslie.
Just when all this will begin is

we could not see anything to tell
where the cries came from. Then we
saw black specks, bobbing up and
down in the water. We started our
old, puny motor.
I'VE found the specks to be heads

pletely exhausted. We had the great
est difficulty hauling them aboard.
And still we had not determined
who the men were, until one Of them
said, I am the commander of the

Il noticed that the commander
completely was overcome. Several of
the other men appeared less ex-
hausted. All wept like babies.

The Promethee was completing its
surface tests and carried additional
engineers and naval experts, besides
the regular crew of four officers and
f1fty-nine men.
The disaster may have an impor-
tant influence on French naval
