A report of the operations Of the

for November. made public yesterday,
shows 6,832.222 applicants for jobs
were then on the active list of the
State and national employment Of
fees. Only about half Of these were
persons employed on Government
work projects. The rest indicate the
existence of a reserve supply of labor
not on relief or public work that Is
SUFFICIENT to supply the growing de-
mands of private employment for
some time to come, in the opinion Of
relief officials.
In many cities, needy employable
workers for whom no place has yet
been made on the w. P. A. rolls are
receiving home relief out of State and
municipal treasures. AS w. P. A.
workers find private employment, this
reservoir Of employable men and
women in the cities can be drawn
upon to fill their places. Until this
reservoir OF employable persons on

COMMITTEES.
BY DIR. ERNEST M. FISHER.
A practice employed widely in Eng
fish housing Is differential renting
which involves the fixing Of rent for
each tenant family in subsidized
houses in relation to its need and
ability to pay rather than on the basis
of size and desirability of the dwell
ing unit.
The municipalities Of Birmingham,
Cambridge, Manchester. Nottingham,
Fork and a number of other impor-
tant cities operate under different
variations of the differential renting
plan. In Birmingham, for example,
q rebate Is given on sliding scale,
based upon weekly income and the
number of children in the family.
In Manchester the rebate Is deter
mined by the relationship between
household income and the necessary
household expenditures. These are
determined by subsistence scale, al
lowing 10 shillings for man and wife
and varying sums for children OF
different ages.
The most comprehensive plan OF
differential renting, one that has at
tracted even international notice, Is
found In the city Of Leeds. Under this
plan various subsidies are completely
divorced from the houses and attached
TO those families which are in need Of
assistance.
A standard rate Is established for
every house on the basis of an eco
nomic rent considering the total costs
of operation including loan charges.
This rate is not related to rents for
similar accommodations in the open
market All housing subsidies origi-
mating both from the government and
the municipality are pooled and out Of
this fund rent relief is granted to all
In need Of 1t, but only as the occasion
arises and as long as the need exists.
The amount Of rent relief Is deter
mined on a basis of a subsistence
scale, dependent upon the constitution
Of the family. The balance Of the
family income remaining after the
appropriate subsistence amount is de-
duced constitutes the margin from
which rent is payable and the relief is
based on this balance, taking into
consideration the circumstances in
each case.
