VOLUNTEERS CHIEF
SCORES CHARGES
SIS Per Cent of Aid Funds Go
to Needy, Wise Replies
to Police Probe.

staff Capt. Arthur e. Wise, regional
commander of the Volunteers OF
America, struck back again today al
the Police Departments investigation OF
the activities of his. organization with
a statement declaring 65 per cent OF
the funds collected go into relief work
A report prepared by Detective w. T
Murphy, who investigated the Volun-
teers, charged that not more than 20
per cent of the funds donated were
used for charity.
"I note that the United States at
torney's Office has announced that II
will take no action upon the report OF
Detective Murphy upon his alleged in
vestigation of the Volunteers Of Amer
ica," said Wise's statement.
This was to be expected. The report
was not prepared with the idea OF
prosecution. It was inspired and made
public in an effort to discredit an Or
ganization which has been laboring with
nickels and dimes to do the work which
other organizations have failed to dc
with dollars.
"A study of an audited account OF
our books will show that IS per cent
of our funds go to relief work-a much
higher percentage than was shown by
most local organizations when they
were called before Congress last Winter
The balance of IS per cent covers not
only the cost of solicitation, but the
administrative and overhead costs"

vacancy.
School authorities made It plain to-

ton for positions.

In this phrase, Mile. Simonne Make
Benoit, doctor of letters Of the Univer-
sity of Paris. an economist in the serv-
Ice of the Paris Chamber Of Commerce
summarized her view Of the function OF
business between different countries and
different peoples.
Mile. Benoit Is here to study particu-
larly the history and methodology OF
the Census Bureau, subject about
which she already Is an acknowledged
expert among European scholars. 1t was
a thesis on the American census with
which she won her doctorate degree. At
present she is especially interested in
the machinery of the bureau, the ways
and means of operation prompted by
its long experience.
She also is studying the history of the
American tariff and its effect upon in
dustry and commerce. For this phase
of her work she has been preparing for
two wears. The United States Chamber
Of Commerce, the Commerce Depart
ment, the Tariff Commission and the
