= Dailey Promises Probe of Relief
Decatur Trustee
Given Ultimatum (Continued | From Page One)
larger relief oe One family that refused to ve didn’t get help wat the Commissioners Interced-. . Another of Mr. Edward's tav-| orite economies is to give grocery | orders several weeks, then arbi-| trarily shut off the food grant| without informing the people. | This, too, keeps Decatur's relief bill down. But out in his township the) people on the other end of this | practice tell the other side of the! story. They tell of going to the| grocery to get food for their) children, only to learn there Is no order there. 8 If there is a man in a relief! § family Mr. Edwards usually tells him he must work at Decatur! School to earn the food order. The law empowers him to do this, | But in one case he sent a relief] client to work in the poultry house of which he was manager. There is nothing in the law to! cover this, | Mr. Edwards says the policy| of requiring recipients to work] at the school is a good one. “If| a few more of these trustees] would do this they wouldn't have] 80 many on relief,” he says. | However, this practice too came in for criticism in two cases| where the trustee wanted hus-| bands to leaye their sick wives |
and small children to do the| 3 school work. | 8 In the Niedermeyer case the '
husband had to care for his four-/ month-oid baby for his sick wife, | who was later hospitalized. He| sold blood fer money to keep | them going. In the Elsqn case! the husband was just out of the hospital himself, unable] to go back to work or draw| compensation because he was not yet relcased as fit for| work. In addition to his illness,|
