ployable millions may be more
fully understood, perhaps. when
it is realized that approximately
one-third of them are under IS
years of age and will be either
assets or liabilities for many
years to come, depending upon
public policies toward them. If
we do not give them chance
at something like normal liv-
ing, it is inevitable that they
will become millions Of indi-
vidual problems. For these
able-bodied unemployed, I am
definitely committed to the CIV
ing of jobs instead of relief.
NATIONAL SPHERE
Except in supplementing GER
tain social security laws as
passed by the States. the Fed
eral government has left the
care of unemployables It h e
problem of maladjusted individ-
uals-to the States and locali-
ties, the field which is the ma
tural sphere of the community
chests.
The Federal government has
chosen to confine itself to the
normal victims Of the malad-
juSted economy, to create work
for the employable unemployed.
It is true the national economy
does not today permit the Fed
eral government to give useful
work to all the employable needy
unemployed, but the Federal
government is doing so in the
great majority Of cases.
The able-bodied unemployed
need work and should have it,
but equally the economic syS-
tenn needs that they should have
1t. A Federal works programe
not only serves the unemployed,
1t saves the Job of those who
have jobs. Our industrial pro-
duction cannot progress, as it
must, unless our masses have
income with which to buy its
products.
IMPORTANT ASPECT
That, in brief, is an aspect Of
the relief problem-and most
important aspect-which I COM
mend to the thoughtful consid-
Grafton Of all who are enlisted
in this splendid mobilization for
human needs. Only in jobs and
more jobs, at good pay, shall we
find stability and individual Sc
curity.
Meanwhile, encouraged and in
spired by a quarter Of a century
Of practical activity, which has
seen the base of charitable Civ.
ing steadily spread, I hope you
will widen your appeal until
every citizen with a competence
great or little-extends the
helping hand to his less favored
brother. That Is an ambitious
goal, but I believe it can be
reached.
Here Is a work in which d.
verse creedS and classes can
unite for the common good. Let
us strive to bring into every com
munity practical exernplification
Of the ideal of being q good
neighbor. In that spirit I appeal
to the American people to pre-
sent a united front in the 1888
mobilization for human needs.

Chairman Taft. Community
Chest Workers, friends Of hui
man needs:
am happy again to greet
the faithful workers assembled
for their annual meeting in be.
half Of this national mobiliza-
ton for human needs. 1t is sig.
nificant that this year marks
the twenty.fifth anniversary OF
community chests and councils
the rounding out Of a full
quarter Of a century of united
approach by the private social
agencies to the problems which
they face throughout the ma
tion.
twenty-five years ago the
proposal that an entire COM
munity should pool its efforts
in a single drive to finance al!
welfare agencies, regardless OF
race or creed, was as radical
as it was farsighted. The birth
of the Community Chest was
an important. milestone in the
evolution of our present view
point regarding aid to the un.
fortunate.
GLAD TO SPEAK
A natural development of this
evolution Is this mobilization
for human needs in which lead
ers and organizations Of ma
tion.wide repute add their voices
and influence to those Of the
local leaders. I have been glad
to speak nationally in behalf OF
your local campaigns.
Let me state plainly that I do
not feel any of our government
tai efforts can ever be SubSt1-
tuted for the distinctive, volun-
tary expression Of personal in
terest in human suffering which
manifestS itself through the
Community Chest.
The founders of the Commun-
ity Chest did net-they could
not-envision the problem Of
mass unemployment among able
bodied and willing men and
women which has resulted from
our complex industrial system.
This evolution created an en-
tirely new problem. Previous ef-
forts had been to make malad-
justed individuals fit into So
ciety, and Of course this broad
field OF effort still exists. But
when, in 1888. we faced the fact
that nearly one out of every
three ablebodied workers in
America had no job, we had to
face the added fact that it was
the system which was out Of
gear.
DIFFERENCE CITED
Here is one difference be-
tween direct relief and work
relief. Direct relief is aimed at
many problems of human mis-
fortune-adjusting maladjuSted
families, taking care of the
sick, tiding over crises in fam
lily life. Work relief is aimed
at the problem Of getting jobs
for normal people who can give
useful work to the country, and
seeking adjustment of a NAL
adjusted society rather than Of
maladjuSted individuals.

Ely. TO SHOW IN MIAMI

MIAMI, Nov. l4.-Some thirty
well dressed young men arrived
in this territory today, and inn
mediately donned overalls and
jumpers, grabbed Autograph
sticks, tack hammers and paste
brushes and set out to do the
town in red, black and yellow.
They rolled in on the No. ! rail-
road Advertising car of the Al G.
Barnes and Sells-Floto Combined
Circus, which will exhibit in Mi
ami two days, Nov. 1922, show
grounds NV 7th street, opposite
Flagler track with $50 people,
five herds of elephants, 837 me-
nagerie animals and hundreds of
beautiful horses doing their best
to live up to the constellation of
stellar features on the Big Shows
1888 roster.
Foremost on the list of super
super features is Gargantua the
Great, giant gorilla, the largest
ever exhibited and the fiercest.
This prodigious primate weighs
$50 pounds, stands feet, 6 inches
and has an arm spread of 9 feet.
Gargantua is one of the great
new attractions of the Ringing
Bros. and Barnum & Bailey cir
Gus, recently added to those of
the Barnes and Sells-Floto Or
ganization, resulting in the
mightiest consolidation of big top
features ever assembled.
The engagement extraordinary
of Bring EN- Back Alive Frank
Buck, hero of the jungle and adj
venture lovers in all lands, has
been a sensational success, and
his introduction in the magnifi-
cent new opening spectacle, is
something not soon forgotten.
The pageantry depicts Frank
Buck returning from the jungle
with a caravan of wild animals
for the Big Show, the largest ever
captured, and his magnificent re-
ception by the Maharajah and his
brilliant court. Five companies
of Bengal lancers in intricate
drills and maneuvers are among
the riding participants in the
splendid inaugural feature.
Through Bucks appearances
under the Barnes-Sells- Floto big
top, through special arrangement
with the Ringling-Barnum &
Bailey management, and the in
flux of his savage beasts, the cir
Gus has become thoroughly jun
gle conscious and presents huge
groups of performing African
lions, Royal Bengal tigers, Sou
dana, tallest giraffe in Captivity,
African pygmy elephants, Lotus,
worlds only trained hippopota-
mus and countless other out
standing animal features.
Included in the list of big top
stars of international eminence
are: Terrell Jacobs, the lion
king in a startling demonstration
with the worlds greatest group
of ferocious performing jungle
bred black named lions; Mabel
Stark, the tiger queen, fearlessly
performing with savage Royal
Bengal man-killers; Reckless
Ralph Clark in a sensational two
horse Roman standing jump over
