Importantly Purcell-provided his

Bouree and Polonaise from Bach's
B minor suite, the latter with
the solo cello doubling the bass

the flute. He played three dances
by Purcell that defined that mas

freely and variedly above it.

Clergymen Point to
Family Responsibility
for Dependents

Following is report presented by
a subcommittee of clergymen in one
of the counties considering what the
community can do to absorb those
who are being shifted from general
public assistance to other means of
support, writes Fern r. Massie, Act
ing Administrator. Benton County
Welfare Department.
THE committee felt that the
practice, on the part of religious Or
CARNATIONS, of giving food and gar
ments should be coordinated and
encouraged.
1T has also emphasized another
TACT of far reaching social implica-
ton. 1t has noted many families
who have begun to feel that all their
dependents, even such as father and
mother, are the responsibility of the
state, even when children and fam
lilies are amply able to take care of
said dependents. 1t has noticed the
repugnant spectacle of sons appear
ing before court, endeavoring to
force the state to take care of faith
er and mother, although said son

and daughter were amply able fl
ancially to take care OF them. II has
seen some courts going by letter OF
law, actually confirming this atti-
tude. Relief has become the dump
ing ground OF all members OF de-
pendents not within its province.
This is a deplorable situation. Ger
tainly we realize that families and
private agencies cannot take care
of dependents at all times.
But while public money can
give relief, where relief is really
needed, no amount of public money
can ever replace the responsibility
of family for one another, of son for
father, where families are finan-
cially capable.
This sense of obligation OF men,
bers of a family for one another is
a precious value OF civilization, both
of Christianity and of Judaism.
THE committee, therefore, is
communicating with ministers,
priests, and rabbis, throughout the
state, urging them TO use their in
fluence, both from the pulpit, as
well as personal influence, to help
the sense of family re-
sponsibility, so that only those that
are actually and economically de-
pendent shall become the charge Of
the community"
