Cost Of Living Reduces
Relief Budget

At the request of the Montana Re
lief Board, Mrs. Nora Chalkley, chair
man Of the Consumers Council made
a survey Of increased costs on foods
allowed in the relief budgets. This
survey showed that costs had increased
some rs per cent in the past six mon
tbs. This means, that in reality, the
budgets of all those on relief have been
cut some rs per cent. This report was
turned in to the relief board, hoping
that some adjustment in the budgets
would be made. So far nothing has
been done with the report.
A committee Of those on relief pre-
scented the directors with these facts.
They report that they were told that
another person would be sent in to
make the survey before any action was
taken. From all appearances it looks
as if surveys will be made until some
investigator can show that living costs
have not increased in Butte.
The survey, made in the following
fields of foodstuffs shows costs adj
vanced as follows: Cereals, lis per
cent; Vegetables 29 per cent; Fruits
5 per cent; Fats 81 per cent; Eggs sc
per cent and Meats Is per cent.
This survey is interesting for Butte
for while these prices have advanced.
wages and incomes have remained the
same and workers as we'll as those on
relief have taken an additional Is per
cent cut in income.
