URGE ADDITION

Board Group to Advise
$3.50, 900 Improvement
at Washinqton.

Construction of a $350,000 addi-
ton to Washington High School is
to be recommended to the School
Board tonight by it's special building
committee.
The committee also is to recon-
mend construction of a second addi-
ton as soon as convenient after the
first has been completed. The COM
mittee, presenting the fifth in a
series of school housing conditions,
is to say that the building was de-
signed for 1000 pupils and now con-
tains 2250
The first addition would contain
% class rooms and gymnasium
and the second IL rooms and an
auditorium.
The school now is using four
temporary frame buildings of two
rooms each. They are steam heated,
but have no toilets. The stage of the
auditorium and an ordinary class
room are used for gymnasium facili-
ties.
The report is to state that the
cafeteria is inadequate Seating only
300 pupils, it is used to serve 1900.
An enrolment of 1885 by 1910 is to
be predicted. This, the report is to
say, would then be an load,
unless additional facilities are pro-
vided, of 1885 students
Erection of the first addition will
increase the capacity by about 800.

NEW HAVEN, ILL.,, Feb. 25.
Twelve rural families were
marooned in corncribs 10
miles south of here today
after flood waters of the Wa
bash River inundated their
homes.
The families fed their homes and
took refuge in the corncribs, ele-
vated on heavy piles, after water
had flooded several low-lying
houses.
According to Ben Becker, store
keeper, the water was five and six
feet deep in many residences.
They &ren't in any danger now, y
Becker said. They have food
enough to last three or four days.
But those corncribs are loosely
built and if the temperature drops
it will be bad
Most of the marooned victims
were children.
Names of only four of the families
were known. They are:
Mrs. Minnie Frailey, widow, and
her four children.
Thomas Cisna, and his four chill
dren.
Otis Stevens, his wife, and five
children.
j. A. William and his wife.
Becker said that fishermen started
out in a motorboat this morning to
reach the victims but gave up when
imperiled by ice foes.

Plans for new city dog pound,

RELIEF ROLLS,
SURVEY SHOWS
Influx of New Faces Wipes
Out Nearly All Gains
in Industry.
PART-TIME JOBS FEW
'BorderIine' Families. at End
of Resources, Now Ask
for Aid.
BY ROBERT S. BROWN
Times Special Writer

WASHINGTON, Feb. 25-Relief
is as grave and far-reaching a
problem today as it was a year ago.
A continuous influx of new faces
has wiped out nearly all the gains
recorded by private employment
Relief and unemployment curves
are meeting In 1888 only so per
cent of the jobless were accepting
assistance from public agencies
Today the figure is near 100 per
cent.
"Borderline" families have reached
the end of their private resources
An unusually cold winter has
fastened their application for aid
Part-time jobs are few. Relatives
and friends no longer are able, or
willing, to lend support.
In the large majority these new
relief cases are "enlployable. but
they are barred from WPA jobs be-
cause they applied for relief after
the deadline of Nov. l, 1885 So
they are being relegated TO direct
relief rolls where benefits. as sup
piled by states, counties or cities.
are often inadequate, especially for
'arge families.
Relief Needs Are Greater
These facts dominate other inn
portant conclusions reached follow
ing a second nationwide survey of
the relief problem by The Indian
apolis Times and other Scripps-
Howard newspapers in "a represent
ative areas.
AS year ago when Scripps-
Howard made a similar survey, the
magnitude of relief needs is greater
than the efforts of all agencies to
meet them. True, the Federal
governments WPA and other job
creating agencies have provided more
than 3,500.000 jobs and have raised
the standard of living for this
group.
But for the rcmainder-those
classed as unemployabies. or those
unable to qualify for WPA because
of regulations or quotas-the pres
ent division of responsibility be-
tween Federal and state agencies
has brought lower standards, a
renewd lack of security and in many
areas actual suffering.
Throw Back" Causes Trouble
When President Roosevelt ruled
last year that the Federal govern
ment must end it's dole and provide
funds only for work relief. 1t was
necessary to set maximum figure
for such employment in order to
stay within the four billion dollar
appropriation. On advice of Relief
Administrator Hopkins, this number
was fixed at 3,500,000 individuals,
representing about 10 per cent of the
number of relief cases"
Mr.. Hopkins knew then that at
least 100000 eases" or 5000, 900 in
dividuals, would be thrown back to
the states for care. What he did
not anticipate was the tremendous
increase in this throw back" group
from the borderline families.
1t is this development which is
keeping the relief rolls close to 90
