REPORT OF WELFARE DEPARTMENT
REPORT OF PUBLIC WELFARE DEPARTMENT
FEBRUARY 6, 1937.
HON. THOMAS S. BURGIN, Mayor:
DEAR SIR:
The Department of Public Welfare respectfully submits the fol- lowing report for the year ending December 31, 1936.
The past year has witnessed many improvements in the several sections of the Welfare Department. Some of these were contem- plated before the year began and others were the outgrowth of our collective ideas as to certain measures which would increase the efficiency of the Department and at the same time simplify our tasks. We feel that we have done eminently well, and I am confident that during the year 1937, we will be able to place all phases of the Department on a real business basis.
Our Outside Aid expenditures were $100,000.00 less than in 1935 and we plan on substantial reductions during this year. Our case load averaged a little less and the W. P. A. projects gave less work to our people than during the year 1935. In spite of all that we had returned to the City more than 100,000 working hours of labor for aid received, which is in proportion almost 100% increase over any previous year since the welfare became a big business.
Mothers' Aid has increased considerably during the year, and will continue to grow in view of the new feature of Aid to Dependent Children which is a part of the Federal Social Security and became operative January 1, 1937.
Old Age Assistance has increased tremendously during the year due to the change in statutes to comply with the Social Security Act. There is a growing tendency toward leniency to those who have passed the period of productivity whether or not they are responsible for the present condition. January 1, 1936 we had 431 on Old Age Assistance and on December 31, 1936 the number had in- creased to 709. We predict that 800 will be the maximum case load under normal conditions for a city of our size.
The conditions at the City Home were far from satisfactory due to the fact that the Federal project for remodelling the Home was discontinued in June without being completed and which left us in a very unsettled state. The work was resumed in October and is still incomplete. When, and if the work is finished, we will have a very nice home and can accommodate approximately 40 inmates.
Conditions at the Dispensary are very good indeed and we feel proud of the fact that it is considered by those who are in a position to have made comparison one of the best set-ups in the Common- wealth.
We are indebted to the many private agencies that have co- operated with the department during the year, and I feel sure that the year 1937 will witness a further spirit of effective cooperation among all the agencies in the City. The Board of Health, the City Hospital, the Massachusetts Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children, the Family Welfare Society, the Visiting Nurses Asso- ciation of Quincy, the Courts and Probation Office, and the Police
234
CITY OF QUINCY
Department have given valuable service and one hundred percent cooperation, and we take this opportunity to acknowledge the same.
For details of expenditures reference is made to report of Audi- tor of Accounts.
Respectfully submitted, ALVIN S. WIGHT, Commissioner of Public Welfare.
