Evening star from Washington, District of Columbia (2024)

A THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D. SATURDAY, OCTOBER 21, 1933. OFFICIALS AT WORK ON AID PROGRAM Draft of Permanent Plan Will, Include Pensions and Housing. By the Associated Press. A permanent social welfare program for the Federal Government is now being prepared by administration officials as the outgrowth of less than two years' experience in direct human relief and that as an emergency measure only.

First recommendations will go to the President in time for the session of Congress which meets in January. They will deal not only with revisions of the present method of giving relief, but also with such questions as old age pensions; mother's pensions, designed primarily to care for children affected by unemployment; unemployment inby the depression, dietetic surance; housing conditions, aggravated the unemployed. One of the major fights in early stages of the depression was over the Federal Government's field in relieving human suffering. Local relief was pitted against Federal. Those who advocated Federal relief drove a wedge with an appropriation of $25,000,000 to the Red Cross.

That agency refused to cept the money, but later agreed to distribute four milled from wheat which the Farm Board purchased in its stabilization operations. Federal Agency Set Up. Direct grants for Federal were forced at the last Hoover Congress. In the extra session at the beginning of the Roosevelt administration, Congress appropriated half a billion dollars, established Civilian Conservation Camps, initiated the $3,300,000,000 public works program for employment purposes. The Federal Emergency Relief Corporation, now under direction of Harry L.

Hopkins, former head of the work in New York State, was set up to direct Federal relief activities. Although the number of persons demanding relief is showing fractional declines, administration officials are taking it for granted it will be several years before even all the employable on the relief rolls have been absorbed by industry and business and that even then, the Federal Government will have on its hands problems of a permanent nature that have been shifted from the domain of State and local relief agencies. Under presidential direction, offcials are preparing a program not only for the pull back to normal conditions, but for dealing with permanent social problems after the depression. The Nation-wide survey begun this week with a series of regional conferences under auspices of the relief administration, is to collect information to be used in mapping both the temporary and permanent programs. Officials hope the survey will give them a picture of conditions.

Data Expected From Survey. They expect it to tell 1 them the family composition; the percentage of employable and the percentage of chronic charity cases; conditions in cities, industrial-rural sections, such as coal and lumber settlements, and purely rural districts; how long persons have the pub- been out of work and how long on lic relief rolls; what the last occupation was and in what industry; who is getting work in the absorption that is going on in the re-employment program; how much doubling up in housing has been going on during the depression; how many children are affected, how many adults are employable and how many persons are eligible for old-age pensions. Although unemployment insurance is regarded by some officials as inevitable on national scale, it is not likely it will be proposed immediately because of industrial conditions. The condition of industry at the moment is not regarded as auspicious for the imposition of even such a minor burden as would be imposed by unemployment insurance. Moreover, its effects would hardly be felt in the present depression, unless it were prolonged beyond the expectation of offcials.

As the outlines of a permanent pro- gram begin to emerge, even though its structure lies 8 few years in the future, officials familiar with the progress of the program regard it as almost certain to include a pension system touching unemployment, widow's health and old age; an elaborate program of child care, in which the White House is interested; a Federal housing program designed to clear slums and afford cheap housing; labor exchanges, and advance planning of public works to be done in emergencies.
