DOLE GOBBLING UP TAX FUNDS, STATES FIND New Levies Necessary to Pay for Mounting Cost of Direct Relief. (Continued From Page One) stopped. There was a 30-day period in which relief clients, although certified to WPA, were maintained by local funds. The result is reflected in the reduced relief funds now available locally. Many forms of raising money for direct relief are in vogue, ranging from sales taxes to borrowing against future state revenues. Slate Taxes Employed In Pennsylvania, amusement, gasoline and cigaret taxes and a one-mill addition to the personal property tax are employed. The east in February will total $7,000,000. leaving only $17,100,000 in the till to cover March, April and May. Beyond then no plans have been made. A special session of the Legislature probably will be called. Ohio recently adopted a seven months’ relief bill, providing for advances of $15,000,000 to counties. Counties received 24 per cent of their total allotments in January and 22 in February. In March they will get 18 per cent, in April 12 per rent, in May 10 per cent and in June and July 7 per cent each. There is no provision for funds after July 31. Colorado has a 2 per cent sales tax. In Indiana, counties have been authorized to issue 10-year relief bonds. New York voters last fall authorized a state bond issue providing $35,000,000 for direct relief, to be agumented by $10,000,000 from general state funds. New York probably can get through the year without additional money.

Funds Expire April 1 Texas direct relief funds will expire April 1. Already the state relief commission is requiring local communities to provide for all employables on direct relief. To qualify for state aid. applicants must take a physical examination and be pronounced unfit for work. Tennessee gives no aid whatsoever to direct relief. In Alabama, Gov. Bibb Graves is talking about a luxury tax. Direct relief grants to Alabama families average less than $lO a month. District of Columbia relief funds will last only to April 1. Oklahoma, in a referendum election, approved only $2,500,000 to last the year and care for 43,635 families. Little assistance is being given the dole families by community chest or private charity funds. Only extreme cases are accepted by such organizations. Most of their money goes to hospitals, Y. M. C. A.'s and other semi-charitable institutions. Partisan Politics in Picture The return of direct relief to state or local administration is bringing partisan politics into the picture. Some states, such as California. Colorado and Alabama, put their governors at the head of all relief activities. Others let county commissioners or township trustees operate the purse strings. Only where non-partisan relief organizations were firmly established prior to the Federal government’s entrance into direct relief are they able to grasp control again. The largest group of unemployables in New York City is that of the physically handicapped. There are 33.000 of them. Deserted mothers with small children number 6500. State old-age pensions are being pc id out, but 6000 of the aged can not qualify. In all, the dole reaches out to more than a half million in the nation's largest city, paying the average family $34.39 a month. In Pittsburgh and Philadelphia more individuc’s are on direct relief than are '■ ors.r.g for WPA. 3000 Hoosiers on Dole About 5.6 per cent of Indiana’s population is on direct relief, with township trustees handing out cash and grocery orders. Three thousand Hoosier families now on the dole are employable if jobs can be found. Knox County. Tennessee, has a dual direct relief administration. The American Red Cross looks after needy families outside of Knoxville, while a family welfare bureau operates in the city. The average benefit per person is $2 a month. Old age is the chief factor in California’s unemployable rolls. Direct state and local benefits are reported adequate in both San Francisco and San Diego. Thirty thousand new cases have been opened in the state since Nov. 1 Payment of old-age pensions in Houston, Tex., would reduce the direct relief load one-half, officials estimate, but state has made no move to co-operate with the Federal Social Security Act. El Paso, in the same state, pays the dole at the rate of $lO a month a family, about 50 per cent adequate. 14.000 in Cleveland on Dole fn Birminghram 951 able-bodied persons, mostly family heads, are on the dole because they got on relief too late to qualify for WPA. Clevelands direct relief rolls contain 14.000 of the same type, while in Memphis the number of employables denied work is 1382. In Akron, WPA eligibles still caught, on direct relief are resentful of their position, and the same sentiment Is expressed in Fort W’orth. Cincinnati relief officials conclude that unless WPA regulations are liberalized and quotas expanded the jj To Clear Pimply j; Skin, Try Sulphur, !
