Proposed Survey ‘Should Investigators,’ Legislatu

Be Made by ‘Competent re Told: Charges Smear

On ‘Loyal Servants’ of State.

The. Indiana legislative

committee of the American

‘Association of Welfare Workers today issued a statement, calling upon the legislature “in all fairness . . . to make an ‘objective, purposeful survey” of the state department of public welfare, “employing competent investigators.”

The statement defended and declared that the state's “loyal servants” had been vietims of a smear. “The issue,” said the statement, “is beclouded because of glleged statements and practices supposedly . of a subversive character ttributed to some of the workers. The statements without supporting proof tended to smear all social workers.” The statements without supporting proof tended to smear all social workers. “If it were not for the'fact that men who have been chosen to represent the various communities in the state in its lawmaking functions made these statements in the halls of the legislature, there would be

"ao need for an answer to an obvi-

ously unfair and thoughtlessly expressed attitude. Terms Reply Imperative “Since the matter involves not only the loyalty, the patriotism and the prestige of social workers who are the servants of Lhe state and of their communities ‘or private organizations employing them, a reply is imperative. “The social worker is a: professional person who, in order to qual- . fy for his work, has spent from four to six years in universities and in schools of social work. He is the servant of the people. His methods of work, his techniques and skills have been evolved over a period of many decades for the purpose of giving to the people the maximum “of service in aiding them to understand and work out their own problems. ... “Social workers are citizens and taxpayers, and have a personal right to express themselves in these matters. In addition theréto, they also represent taxpaying bodies and ‘are answerable to boards of directors or trustees or county councils, the member of which are acquainted with their work and give sanction to it. “In the field of private social work, a much older field, for years leading citizens of communities have been on boards of directors of family welfare agencies, child caring agencies, ¥Y. M. C. A’s, community ‘center agencies, public health nursing associations, and other social welfare organizations, have known social workers these many years and have given their sanction to the development of social welfare as it is practiced today. Is is unthinkable that these in-

the position of social workers

telligent citizens, leaders in their communities, would continue to give

their support and their active service in these organizations if they believed that social workers were not serving the best interests of the community and of the clients of the agencies. “The social workers through their agencies, the American Association of Social Workers, the social workers’ clubs, and the state conference, also welcome an investigation of the state department of public welfare or social welfare altogether, public or private. “They would like to point out to the assembly that in any field of human endeavor where an objective and a purposeful study is to be made, whether it be in the field of iraffic control or city planning of systems of parks and playgrounds or public health, experts, usually from national associations concerned with these problems, are called in to make the investigation or study or the survey. “While common sense plays a part in social welfare as it does in every field of human endeavor, the field of social welfare has -become a specialized field. The average person who has his own activities, is not capable of making judgments in the social welfare field any more than he is in the medical field or the engineering field. “In all fairness, therefore, the social workers of Indiana appeal to the members of the general assembly and particularly to tte members of the investigating committee to make an objective, purposeful survey, employing competent investi-

of the state be served.”

viding $5 Daily in Addition to Salaries.

Whether or not Hoosier legislators will receive $5 a day for expenses in addition to their $610 salary depended today on the senate, : Twenty-one senators today signed a petition supporting the maintenance bill. The petition was sponsored by Thurman Crook and John Gonas, both South Bend Democrats.

They need only five more supporters to guarantee passage in the upper house if the bill gets out of committee. Climaxing the longest day of work yet put in by the lower house, representatives voted, 55 to 23, yesterday to pass a bill appropriating $47,750 for legislators’ maintenance —enough to pay each representative and senator $5 a day expense money for the current session. House members applauded when Speaker Hobart Creighton handed the bill down for a vote. Opponents

resistance, Too Tired to Argue

“When you want to get somebody,” said Rep. George Henley (R. Bloomington), majority floor leader, “you just get them groggy and then knock them out. I'm too tired to argue. “I don’t think any one of us came here with the idea of making money. This $5 a day still won’t compensate

serving as legislators and I'm going to be forced to vote against this bill.” Rep. Charles Z. Bond (R. Ft. Wayne) defended the expense measure with the contention that although legislators knew they were only scheduled to get $10 a day when they ran ‘for office they had no idea at the time what it would cost. them to serve.

'60-Cent Dinner Now $1

“I didn’t know that my hotel bill would be $75 instead of $50,” Rep. Bond said, “and I didn’t know that meals which used to cost 60 cents now would cost a dollar.” Rep. Frank O'Rourke (D. Hammond), co-author of the bill, tcid the house that “even the lowliest messenger boy employed by the state gets his expenses” and urged the legislators to be “honest with ourselves.” All of the 23 members who voted against the measure were Republicans.
