The booklet, wihch is being distri- buted to persons seeking information about the county unit system of poor relief, points oui that the modern sys tem aims to centralize authority and funds in the hands of three county commissioners or elected directors of the poor who e vefted with the power of carrying on relief work for each county in which the plan ope- The borough and township system fos many dilapidated alms-houses in the counties where the plan is operation.
