Swetland Building

Cleveland

January 23, 1922.

To the City Council,

City of Cleveland, Gentleman:

Your attention is respectfully called to the following resolution passed by our board of trustees, at a meeting held this morning:

"Whereas, the question of the opening of the public auditorium in time to carry out the existing contracts with the American Building Exposition Company and other organizations, has received the full consideration of this board and its sub-committee appointed for the purpose of investigating the matter of operation expenses incident to the opening of the auditorium and probable income from its use.

Now, therefore, be it resolved that this board does hereby recommend and urge the city administration to open the auditorium in time for the date set for the opening of the American Building Exposition; provided that proper waivers from such contractors as may not have entirely completed their work, can be obtained amply protecting the city against any loss, which might be sustained by reason of opening the building prior to its full completion, and

Be it further resolved, as there appears to be some apprehension on

CITY COUNCIL

MONDAY, JAN. 23, 1922

the part of the administration as to whether the income will meet the expenses of operation; the board will enter into a suitable contract with the city to operate the hall for the period ending December 31st, 1923, assuming all cost of operation, except such as the city would be liable for if the hall remained closed, and

Be it further resolved that the proper officers of the board be, and are hereby instructed to notify the mayor and the city council of this action."

Respectfully yours,

THE CLEVELAND REAL ESTATE

File No. 56726.

To the Honorable Council of the City of Cleveland. Gentlemen:

Your special committee on unemployment met Tuesday, January 17, 1922, with the following members present:

Stacel (chm.), Bronstrup, Rieder, Roberts and Sulzmann.

Also present were the following: Former Councilman J. W. Reynolds, Directors Maline, Perkins, Roberts and Ruetenik; C. F. Arndt, commissioner of unemployment, W. A. Pease, representing the Van Sweringens', E. C. Henn, National Acme Co., E. A. Roberts, Builders' Exchange, H. F. Schuler, American Steel & Wire Co., J. Wayne Hart, White Motor Co., Mrs. E. F. Starr, Federated Women's Clubs, and representatives of The Joseph & Feiss Co., and the Cigar Makers' Union.

Your chairman stated the objects of the committee as outlined in resolution, file No. 56647, adopted by the council on January 9th, 1922.

The chairman first called on Mr. Arndt, commissioner of unemployment, who stated there was no change in conditions since July 1, 1921. He stated there are approximately 625 applicants for work each dav, and that he is able to place only about four and one-half per cent, a very low percentage. He estimated there are about one hun

dred and twenty-five thousand men out of work.

Ralph Perkins, director of public welfare, told the committee the outdoor relief department was taking care of approximately eleven thousand families, and that his department was receiving an additional request from about sixty-five families daily.

J. F. Maline, director of public service, stated he had discharged between three hundred and four hundred men since January 1st. He stated there was no work for them now, and that no work would be available until spring, when paving, sewer, and paving repair work will be started again.

A. B. Roberts, director of public utilities, stated his department would not put additional men to work until March, when the concrete work on the new Baldwin Reservoir would begin.

E. A. Roberts, secretary of the Builders' Exchange, made a plea for opening the new public hall on schedule time, stating that the Building Show would do much toward stimulating building, thereby relieving unemployment to a large extent.

J. Wayne Hart of the White Motor Co., told the committee that the unemployment situation today was worse than at any time in the past. Other opinions voiced before the committee tended to show there would be no change in conditions for at least several months.

Your committee has been informed that approximately 200 men furnished by the Associated Charities and American Legion Barracks are being used on street work. These men receive no pay from the city or from other resources, their compensation being food and lodging furnished by the Associated Charities and American Legion through the Community Fund.

Your committee does not approve of this practice for the following

reasons:

1. By using these men, who are single men, married men with families are deprived of employment.

2. This practice tends to make public charges, not only of the men actually used on this work, but of a like number of married men who could be used, and their families.

3. This condition creates an immediate drain upon the funds of charitable institutions, because of the fact that many of those laborers who have been discharged by the city since January 1st, are forced to turn to the out-door relief department for assistance.

In view of the fact that the consensus of opinion among those who appeared before the committee tended to show that conditions probably would not improve for some months to come, we feel that agencies, other than private employers, should take the lead in relieving the unemployment situation, and with this in mind we recommend further that a sum of $200,000.00 be appropriated by the council to be expended by the director of public service, through the division of streets, this money to be used to supply employment to married men with families. The work to be done with this money should consist of extra work in clearing the streets of snow, ice and other obstructions; work that under ordinary conditions might not be done.

We recommend further that every property owner and business man in the city of Cleveland be, and he is hereby requested to carefully examine his house or business property from cellar to attic, to make up a list of improvements which can be made at the present time, in an effort to provide employment to some of thousands of Cleveland's unemployed. Let their motto be "Do It Now" in order that some temporary relief may be had until such time when work on public improvements can be started in early spring. Respectfully submitted, JACOB STACEL,
