There are thousands" says Mr.
Davenport, who draw income
from private industry and relief
moneys at the same time. The
greatest difficulty these wide
awake persons encounter is how
to be in two places at one time
to hold a work-relief job and a
private one too. But with true
Yankee ingenuity they've worked
It out.
From Soup to Nuts
eThen there are families who
have been drawing everything
from groceries to coal from relief
headquarters but, not needing 1t,
+ selling 1t. Government food has
mysteriously found its way to the
shelves of obscure grocery stores.
"Then you find the local relief
worker who thinks she has done
something commendable by re-
ducing her visiting list. But the
local political boss descends upon
her with q fine fury. He wants to
keep up his quota of government
money, and II anybody drops off
the relief list, he wants others
found to take their place.
"You get even more of jolt
when you discover relief agents So
liciting families to demand doles.
There is the record of several
counties where, owing to a revival
of business, not one family remain
ed on relief. This was bad bus
mess for the almoners whose jobs
were consequently imperiled.
Therefore they went about telling
the porrer families how foolish
they were not to accept public
moneys. With a little industry
they revived the relief business and
their jobs were saved"
IA Percent Hold Jobs
A study of 1,150,000 persons on
relief (out of the 21,000,000 Amer
leans now on the relief rolls) show
ed that IA percent had jobs of
various sorts, but the income was
inadequate to support the worker
and his dependents. Therefore their
incomes were supplemented from
public funds. The median earn
ings of these people, part-time and
full-time workers, was approx
nine dollars a week. To be
more explicit. thirty per cent got
less than five dollars week, thir-
ty.five per cent got between five
ana ten dollars, fifteen per cent
got from ten to fifteen dollars and
twenty per cent got fifteen dollars
or more. The average pay of the
whites was almost two and n half
times that of the Negroes. Women
got a lower wage than
the men even when they were the
only workers in the family.

undeniable and unbelievers can
