ASKS TO PROTECT
WELFARE BUREAU
Municipal Rosbarch Body Wants
Now Superintendent Froe
of Political Influence
BIG OPPORTUNITIES SEEN
Keep the new department of public
welfare free .from "partisan or fac
tional selfishness."
That is the pica made today by the
Bureau of Municipal Research) refer
ling to the new branch of the city ad'
ministration which comes into being
January 5.
"The welfare department is new to
Philadelphia," a bureau bulletin states.
"Thii fact nlono encourages the hope
that this department may bo spared
from the very beginning the demoraliz
ing consequences of 'political' adminis
tration. "Whoever is to bo our next Mayor
has an unprecedented opportunity to
J start the department right by his choice
of a director."
Department's Opportunities
Opportunities before the new depart
ment were touched unon as follows:
"The new charter gives control over
charities, corrections and recreation to
this new department. But it does vastly
more. It gives tho Council virtually
unlimited power in assigning new wel
fare functions to this department in
these words :
" 'It shall also have jurisdiction over
such other matters affecting the public
welfare' as may bo proveded by ordi
nance." "Here, at least, no one can complain
of state interference. Here we havo
substantially complete home rule. But
home rule is no automatic device. If
it is 'to be o! benefit at all It must "bo
utilised by the local authorities."
Candidates Pledget!
The bureau pointed out that before
the primary both Congressman Moore
nnd Judge Patterson assured social
workers of their interest in the new
department, their replies containing
"not merely pleasant words, but in
both cases a rather clearly thought out
understanding of what the welfare de
partment signifies."
