The fact that the state began con-

been spending under it's controlled re-

an important factor in further mini

Director Sherwood also pointed out
that relief costs dropped $275,00O

relief expenditures in the state below
$2,OOO,OO0 last month. If that figure
is maintained, the state will be able
to match local funds on a $3.50 basis

UNION LABEL GIFT BUYING

What could be more appropriate
than to dedicate the holiday shopping
season this year to the great cause
of the union label? It would be most
appropriate because by urging Christ
mas shoppers to buy only union-made
gifts they are also buying goods that
are made in our own factories. .
If all Christmas presents that will be
purchased in 1889 were made in
America, employment would be in
creased and taxation for relief pur-
poses would be reduced to a mini

ports to Be TabuIated

Although no complete data Is now
available the recently initiated state
register Of crippled children will
help to ensure that no crippled child
is overlooked and will provide evens
tually the statistical yardstick by
which the whole program Of Grip
pied children activities, public and

monthly bulletin Of the State De-

On the basis of q ratio calculated

The register will ultimately indi-
cate how completely the needs Of
these crippled children are being
met, emphasize the fields Of activity
In which public and private agen-
cies overlap and provide the neces.
sary basis for realignment and re-
directing Of activities in accordance
with changing conditions, Doctor
Spekter said. To accomplish this, he
emphasized that 1t is essential for
physicians and surgeons, hospitals
and dispensaries, and private agen-
cies to report these cases to the DE-
vision Of Crippled Children.
Clinical conditions to be reported
include: club foot, dislocated hip,
cleft palate, harelip and so forth;
heart disease, poliomyelitis, arthritis,
birth injuries, rheumatic heart
disease and contractures resulting
from burns. Held In strict conf
dence, the names Of all residents Of
the state under twenty-one years Of
age having any Of these Gripping
conditions will be on record. This
and further Information requested
only from physicians and agencies
giving care will furnish data to ia
cilitate an informed approach to the
educational, vocational and occupa-
tional needs and may be of value In
the prophylaxis Of crippling, Doctor
Spekter explained.
