House Committee Told
Of Welfare Problems
Now Facing States
New Burdens Created
By War Conditions
Cited by Hoehler

Six problems facing State welfare
agencies as a result of the war were
outlined to the House Defense Mi
grafton Committee today by Fred
K. Hoehler, director of the Ameri-
can Public Welfare Association.
Heading the list were unemploy-
ment due to priorities and curtail-
ment of consumer production and
the need of temporary aid to men
who have used all their resources
in moving their families to the loca-
ton Of new job.
Four other problems he mentioned
were:
Dependency due to military serv-
ice, not serious at the moment, but
a potentially important question as
the war goes on.
Added burdens placed on local
welfare agencies in cities crowded
by an influx Of defense workers.
Possible need at . later date OF
some Federal aid to localities to
meet the effects Of enemy attack or
sabotage.
The effect Of increased cost Of
living on relief families.
Need for service programs, espe-
cially for children in crowded de-
tense areas.
Families Require Care.
Mr.. Hoehler gave this summary
after the specific problems had been
discussed in detail by the following
State welfare omcials:
Howard l.. Russell, Pennsylvania:
Benjamin Glassberg, Wisconsin:
Miss Loula Dunn, Alabama; Elmer
r. Goudy. Oregon; william Hodson
Of New York City and L. M. Lyons
OF Chicago.
Mr.. Goudy told the committee
200 men from one county in Oregon
were working on Wake, Guam and
other Pacific islands at the out
break of the war, and 10 Of them
have families. The fate of the men
Is not known, but some provision
must be made for those families,
he said.
Representative Curtis, Republican,
of Nebraska said he realized was
dislocations have increased some
public welfare burdens, but inquired
II it has not also reduced some
other items, such as unemployment
relief.
Relief Drop Slow.
Speaking for New York City,
Mr.. Hodson said that up to a month
ago the total decline in relief from
the peak was 50 per cent on an
expenditure basis. At the same time,
he said, applications are beginning
to increase again due to disloca-
tions, and that he does not look
for any such decline in future as
has already taken place. due to
the large number of families having
no employable member. He recon-
mended wider application of un-
employment insurance to lessen the
relief roll.
Representative Curtis called at.
tention to the enormous new flnan-
cial obligations the war has i'm.
posed on the Federal Government
and said: II hope my patriotism
isn't challenged when say the
Federal Government might reach a
breaking point in the midst of war"
It would be a mistake, he said,
to place on the Federal Government
any burden that could be handled
otherwise.

CHILD'S RECOVERY
 TOSPEED INQUIRY
Police, Court Officials Promise Vigorous Prose-
 cutiOn of Guilty Parties

Reports of physicians who have examined the 4-year-old victim ot a criminal attack by sex maniac show that the little girl is not suf- fering from social disease, and of- ficial source said today.
 Today's reports refute earlier in- formation that the little girl con- tracted a social disease as result ot the attack.
 But the report did not lessen the intenseness of the investigation by States Attorney William B Fitzgerald, County Detective Roland c. filling and state and local police The little girl, who was in a very critical condition when the investi- gation started last Sunday is now reported recovering.
 This incident and the accusations against three other men involved in alleged indecent assault on minor children aroused public opinion Authorities have requested the CO., operation of parents of children by requesting that close watch be kept over them in order to avoid any further incidents of this type.
 In return authorities have guar anteed that severe penalties will be meted out to those found guilty of committing this type of crime.
 A number of suspects have been questioned and released but fur ther questioning is planned when the little victim has recovered suffi- ciently to permit officials to talk with her. Each and every one of the suspects will be taken before the little girl for identification and the man she points out will find him. self in. very serious predicament
 In the meantime States Attorney Fitzgerald is preparing for the prosecution of three men who were bound over to superior court from municipal court on indecent as- Sault charges.

Two Officers Before
 Police Commissioners
Veterans of Nearly Quarter of Century Face
 Charges; New Bus Terminal Likely

William Verriker of the police board said he expects the hearing on the case will be conducted according to schedule.
 It is expected that the vacancy caused by the discharge of former Patrolman Anthony Stango will be filled at an early meeting. Patrol man Stango was discharged for failure to submit proof of citizen ship after it was revealed he regis tered as an Axis alien. Members of the board indicated that the vacancy was not filled earlier be- cause of the possibility of an appeal to the courts by MT. Stango.
 No retirements or appointments are expected to be made at, Wednesday, $ meeting of the board. There is a report, however, that the board is planning to discuss the condition created by bus passengers on the north side of East Main street
 A committee of the board is pre- pairing a report in response to a petition received from merchants on East Main street who complain that people waiting for busses and those alighting from busses hamper their businesses by blocking their doorways and sidewalks.
 The suggestion has been made that a single central terminal be placed on the south side of the Green in order to eliminate the present hazardous and unfavorable condition.
