Church Federation
Moves 10 Coordinate
Social Service Work
Committee Set Up to
Study Phases Of
Welfare Activities

The establishment by the Board
Of Directors of the Washington Fed
Grafton of Churches OF a commit
tee to study the phases of social
welfare and bring about further
coordination of the whole fedora
ton program in the field of social
service was recommended yester-
day by church and social agency
representatives.
The move was recommended fol-
lowing a review and discussion of
the program of the social welfare
department of the federation at the
department headquarters at 1749 N
street NV. A city-Wide representa-
ton from churches and social agen-
cies took part in the discussion and
found there should be more CO.
ordination in church welfare work,
and that it should center in the
departments
At the same time the group
adopted a resolution recommending
that the name of the department
be changed to the Christian Social
Relations Department of the Wash
ington Federation of Churches. The
welfare group is one of the organ
izations receiving aid from the
Community Chest.
Change Up to Board.
Action on the recommendations is
up to the Board Of Directors, meet
ing in February.
Activities of the Social Welfare
Department during the three and
half years of its existence were
reviewed by the Rev. John L. Nixon,
director. who pointed out that its
establishment marked the first or
ganlZatlon OF co-ordinating
church welfare group in the Ma
ton. Since its beginning, he said.
similar organizations have been
started in a number OF cities.
During the discussion yesterday
Mr.. Nixon pointed out that pri-
vate general relief was carrying a
greater average load in Washing
ton than in most other urban areas,
while at the same time the per
capita expenditure here for public
general relief was considerably
lower than in other cities.
Sees Handicap in Condition.
This condition" he said, lis one
of our chief handicaps"
The figures on private relief, he
pointed out, show that people are
concerned about the problems" Of
welfare, and he emphasized that
there should "be larger national
share in such work" in Washing
ton.
The Social Welfare Department
of the federation, he said, is gradu-
ally becoming co-ordinating
group, helping to supervise the work
of Washington churches, which, he
said, carry 1.457 families on the
active files. Through its program
the department is helping to elimi-
nate duplication and through its
information and consultation serv-
ice is enabling church welfare COM
mittees to make use Of proper well
fare resources.
