HOMES IMPERILED
 BY GARAGE BLAZE
28 Alarms Recorded in Lo= cal Dept. Yesterday;
 Score of Brush Fires

A garage fire that threatened to set afire three adjoining buildings was quenched by f1remen early last night. The blaze was the most seri- ous during another hectic day for firemen, with total of 28 alarms being answered.
 The garage, unoccupied, was lo- cated on Brewster place, just of North Main street. The fire is be- lieved to have started from sparks from nearby bonfire.
 Threatened by the fire were two three-family houses and one tWo- family house. Bremen directed by Acting Deputy Chief Stephen Bloomfield protected these dwellings while extinguishing the garage fire.
 Shortly after this fire, firemen were called to 782 North Main street to extinguish a fire in a refrigerat- ing system in a meat market oper- ated by Sol zeiman, of 55 Ward street.

at evasion and artifice, befuddling
all but the most discerning inveS-
tigator. Negroes also are difficult
to handle once they go on relief
and become used to the life. Once
jolted out, however they work
happily enough.
A majority of the white persons
on relief IN Imperial county is
made up of these who have drifted
here from the central southern
states. They find life, on relief bet
ter here than at home, and at the
same time enjoy a pleasant trip.
Others come west by easy stages
IN an old auto, work enough in the
fields on the way to make ends
meet, travel about The state and
then sell their car when they
feel like going home. The state
then, reasoning that it is cheaper
to send them home than allow them
to stay and become relief wards,
sends them home on the train.
After a visit at home they start
the same trek again.
Cause For Cheers.
This story so far has dealt with
the majority of relief clients, as I
have personally seen them. To them
a slight drop in business is some
thing to cheer about. 1t means an
excuse to hop back on the relief
rolls, after they have been showed
off by the employment service
during temporary business rise.
AS for the small percentage of
relief dependents who are on be-
cause they have to be, they often
do come in for unjust censure. Fire.
quently they are offered jobs that
it is impossible for them to take
and still make ends meet. They
sincerely want to work, but of
necessity must earn more than
some employers wish to pay.
The individuals on relief cannot
themselves be blamed for prefer
ring that life If you were in the
habit of working only enough to
live by, and someone out of a clear
blue sky offered to pay your liv-
ing expenses, well, what would you
do?

over-estimated their common liv-
ing standards.
In other words, living standards
of half of those persons on relief
have been materially raised through
no demand on the part of the peo-
pie themselves. A commendable ac-
ton. but at the same time costly
in tax money The result is that
after several years of a higher
standard of living. the relief client
become accustomed to it and will
not change. although in many cases
he IS unable to earn enough money
TO maintain the living scale he has
learned.
Where Blame Ties
Partly responsible for this situa-
tion is the relief investigator him
self. The investigator goes into a
home. sees unbelievable Squalor,
leaps to the conclusion that this
wretched condition is a recent de-
yelopment. not a normal one. and
certifies the family for relief. The
somewhat astonished relief client
starts receiving from S25 to S35
every two weeks It is a pretty fair
life. He likes it. gets used to it,
and before long he demands it.
A relief investigator runs into
scores of cases of "chiseling", most
of which must be ignored for lack
of proof. Most flagrant cases are
those where the relief client slips
off. does a few odd jobs here and
there for extra money and fails to
report it. In many cases. a wife
will shrug her shoulders, explain
that her husband has deserted her
and 60 on receiving aid. At the
same time. however, her husband
will be working under another
name at a steady JOB, coming home
for meals and to sleep. Particularly
among the Mexican and Negro re-
lief wards these cases are almost
impossible to unearth and prove.

born MexicanS are the most diff
