In another place in this paper

that it is not a committee by name

"2. When a committee is in

granted that they have the right
to see any and all files pertaining
to the case. Is that correct?
SO. In order to arrive at a cor
rect solution on a case, it is alb
solutely necessary for the commit
tee to know the budget or amount
allowed different sized families,
both for direct relief and work
budget. Will you send me this =?
Also the amounts to be deducted
for resources the case may have.
"a. Have people on relief the
right to see the files at the relief
office concerning their own cases =?
In. order to eliminate friction and
misunderstanding, I am sure they
should have the right. They argue
that practically all they have left
is their reputation, and TOW the
relief office is robbing them of
that since they are not allowed to
see what is written about them
and have no chance to disprove
falsehoods. Many claim they have
found out by certain means that
the files concerning their cases
contain statements that they can
prove are false.
"In court the defendant has
the right to present his case, but
the persons on relief are denied
that privilege. The depression
took their property and now the
relief office takes their good repu-
tation. This is what pee pie on re-
lief say, and their good will can
not be won until this injustice is
corrected.
"Will you please be kind enough
to answer these questions? I car
assure you that if you will CO.
operate with the grievance com
mittee so that people on relief
know thew are accorded a faiI
hearing, then much Of the past
friction will be done away with in

ly to the state grievance commit
tee.
(6) All complaints and decisions
of the local grievance committee
should be recorded and copies sent
to the state ERA as a matter of
record.
CD It should be clearly under
stood that persons on relief have
the legal right to organize them
selves into associations or other
bodies. Administrative officials
should make every attempt to hear
all complaints and suggestions pre-
sented by representatives of such
associations or bodies.
(8) Before any employee is
discharged, the grounds on which
such discussion is made must be
, defensible before the local griev-
! ance committee, and support for
such discharge must be available
in the form of document or the
direct evidence of witnesses. This
applies to demotion or other en-
ployee discipline.
Since these rules do not give
answer to many questions import
