HOUSEKEEPING
PROJECT NOW
ESTABLISHED
BEING OPERATED BY WPA
UNDER SUPERVISION OF
MRS. MINNIE ROBINSON;
HEADQUARTERS EATON ST.

A WPA housekeeping aid prof.
ect, set up to provide help in
homes of needy families requiring
emergency services of various
kinds is now operating in Key
West under the supervision of
Mrs. Minnie Robinson.
The project in Monroe County
employs two women and one man
from WPA rolls, who are placed
in homes of disadvantaged fami-
lies for periods of ten days or
less upon requests cleared
through the Key West office of
the State Welfare Board. In
these homes the aides not only
provide emergency assistance
during illness or other distress,
but also pass on to the house
wife and members of the family
knowledge of home planning, in
Guiding such essentials as bal
anced diet, cooking, home care OF
the sick, sanitation, child care
and other principles of good
homo management.
Headquarters Of the project are
located at 704 Eaton street where
workers go through a training
course before they are sent into
homes.
There are many emergencies
which arise in homes that re-
quire temporary outside assist
ance", Mrs. Robinson said. Those
who cannot afford to pay for this
assistance usually have to suffer.
Much distress can be relieved by
providing emergency help. par
ticularly during illness. Illness
of a mother, for example, may
mean total decentralization of
home, particularly if there arc
children. Income is more inn
portant than at any other time
and it is usually necessary that
the husband and father continue
at work. Sometimes the mother
is the wage Garner and cannot
stay at home to be with sick chill
dren. Often il is an aged person
who has TO one to look after him
or her in periods OF emergency"
The housekeeping aides not
only substitute for the home
maker in these emergencies but
attempt 10 devise a plan under
which the family can carry on
after they leave, il was said.
Often there is one or more per-
sons in the home who can carry
on the necessary duties IL they
know how The help Of relatives
or neighbors can be enlisted in
some cases if the emergency is
of unusual duration.
The service has been cnihus-
iastically welcomed by physicians,
nurses. social workers. ministers
and others who arc in touch with
families in distress. IL was said,
as il fills need which existing
agencies are unable 10 provide.
All requests for the service are
cleared through the district Of
flee of the State Welfare Board.
which determines the eligibility
of the family TO receive the surv-
ices. Currently more requests
are being received than can be
met, and II Is necessary 20 limit
help 10 the most urgent cases.
The project operates under the
Women's and Professional Divi-
sion Of the WPA, Of which Mrs.
Ruth b. Owens. Of Miami. is area
supervisor. and Miss Resale

JEWISH RELIEF
DRIVE GOES ON
RAISING OF FUNDS IS PRO.
CROSSING Salts
FAcToRILY

Although no public solicitations
have as yet been made, Joe Pearl
man, chairman of the Unitd Pal
estine Appeal, announced today
that the drive has progressed sat-
isfactorily.
To date the total receipts are
$16I50. This includes the $138
already given by members of the
Congregation B'nai Zion. The
list of unsolicited donations is as
follows: Mr.. and Mrs. S. NJ.
Goldsmith, So; Mrs. George w.

Mr.. Pearlman requested that
all those who have not yet been
called upon to send in their dona-
tons to do so as soon as pos
sible. All contributions will be
accepted by Mr.. Pearlman or any
member of the committee.
Response from the various
churches has been highly COM
mendable, Mr.. Pearlman declar-
ed, since many are devoting their
sermons to the cause of this
drive. SIN view of the deepening
of the crisis with each day, it be-
comes more and more urgent to
come to the immediate succor of
the unfortunates in Europe.

New Monroe County Project
Awaiting Official Approval
Relative To Clerical Ac-
tivities OF Varied Nature
At Monroe County Court
House

One of the new projects which
is now before the officials in
Washington and for which ap-
prevail is being awaited is that
for the continuation of the prof.
ect which was in effect some time
ago and which kept a number of
men and womn at work.
This was especially provided
for employment of needy profess
sional, educational and clerical
persons in verifying county rec
ords, including Plat Books, Deed
Records and Probate Records and
verifying property as TO name
and deed reference as shown on
the 1889 tax roll.
The proposed new project will
include reindexing of chancery
cases and verification of cham
Gerry progress dockets for the pc
riod dating from 1883 to 1885, in
elusive. This work is to be per-
formed for the office of the clerk
of the Circuit Court.
1t is shown that the work does
not come under a normal budget
airy appropriation, as it is not a
normal activity of the sponsor or
other public authority or agency.
No regularly employed person
will be displaced. No current
work will be performed. Spon-
sors for the work is Monroe
County, Florida.
