Report of Secretary-Treas
urer E. B. Hook Read at
Meeting Tuesday Morn
ing.
■ i •
The relief committee met in daily
session at the Chamber of Commerce
this morning. Mr. Hook, secretary
and treasurer, made his daily report.
The work is progressing well, condi
tions ar e being greatly relieved. His
financial report was as fdllows:
Checks deposited $13,5114.99
Disbursed, through W. 11.
Rowland 500.00
Cash subscribed by Board
of Charities 4,048.1?
[Cash deposited 843.20
! Cash paid out before de
posited 352.00
Drafts drawn, not yet paid 750.01
; Checks in hand, received
since Saturday 2.476.00
| City contribution 5,000.00
Government aid 3,500.00
Total $31,300.00
Mr. Rowland reported that by tak
ing an average, or typical block, in
the stricken area, he had been able
to arrive at an estimate of the dam
age done to personal property. The
average number of families to a block
is 30; for 103 blocks, making 3.090
families; average damage sustained
iby each family, $73.50; making total
i damage, estimate of course, $226,415.
(He stated that about 1.000 families
j needed additional help, besides that
already rendered. Rv additional help
he stated that he meant furniture and
sewing machine repairs.
Work In Hamburg.
C. T. Walker reported a contribu
tion of $27.50. He said Mr. Frank
Fleming had offered a part of his
building in Hamburg for the estab
lishment of a relief station, and that
active work would begin in that dis
trict Tuesday.
Mr. Lawton B. Evans, chairman of
a committee appointed to look into
that line of relief, said he had inves
tigated the matter of securing casv
jfhyment terms with furniture dealers.
He snid he found them active in put
ting out furniture on new installment
eontracts and easy in their terms. He
stated, however, that in many cases
he found people buying expensive
furniture in larger quantities than
they really need. He said the deal
ers wer« selling at regular prices,
which are fairly reasonable, on tho
Installment plan, with no cash pay-
ment required.
To Buy More Mattresses.
Mr. Rowland stated that of tho
1,250 mattresses purchased, all save
120 had been distributed. He asked
for and was granted an appropria
tion for 100 more mattresses.
Mr. R. E. Allen stated that he hail
been asked by Mr. E. C. Burwell to
say the Southern Express company
would handle relief supplies within
this ten/torv free of charge.
Dr. Wilkinson was granted the floor
for a few remarks. He recommended
that seamstresses be paid $1.25 In
stead of 75 cents per day for their
work, and that teamsters furnishing a
one-horse wagon with driver all day,
he paid $3.00 instead of $2.00. It
was later found by discussion that the
general belief of the committee seem
ed to he that, the wagon rates being
now are entirely reasonable. Dr.
MJHkinson also suggested that the
committee agree to pay the first in
stallment to furniture dealers on pur
chases made bv really needy persons.
He was referred to the Associated
Charities.
