PLAN TO IMPROVE
SOCIAL WORK HERE
Leaders of Council Discuss
Broadening Scope of
Activities in District.
The executive committee of the
Council of Social Agencies and the
indorsement committee on welfare
organizations, representing nearly
Seventy agencies and business anil
■*ivic organizations, met yesterday at.
the City Club to discuss' plans for
taking care of the social needs of
Washington more tully than hereto
fore.
Pointing out the importance of
social work, John Ihlder, president
of the Council of Social Agencies,
compared its functions in the mod
ern economic system to that of oil in
a moving machine. Machinery might
he operated, lie said, without oil.
Rut the loss would be tremendous
and the breakdowns frequent,” he as
serted. adding:
' Obvious as this fact is to any en
gineer, it takes constant advertising
to impress its truth upon the general
♦/.public—that oil is an essential and
'good oil an economy. Anil in just
the same way it is necessary to show
the public that social work is essen
tial and good social work an econ
omy.”
UrM-ribm Indorsement.
M. A. Leese. former chairman of
the indorsement committee, the or
ganization of twelve business and
civic associations, which passes on
the qualifications of social agencies
making public appeals for contribu
tions, described the method of that
body. Before indorsing any social
agency, the committee requires it to
show that it will fill a need not cov
ered by another agency, ho said.
In addition, the speaker said, it
must submit evidence that it is a lo
cal organization governed by a local
board of responsible and reputable
persons; that it keeps accurate finan
cial records and that its expendi
tures are not out of proportion to
the results it achieves or, if it is a
new organization, what it expects to
accomplish. Another speaker, explain
ing the functions of the Council of
Social Agencies, pointed out that it
requires as a condition of member
ship indorsement of each agency ap
plying for admission. Copies of a
pamphlet entitled "The Giver’s Guide”
were distributed during the meeting,
it contains a list of agencies which
have been indorsed and have express
ed their willingness to co-operate by
joining the, council.
