Board of Control Commends Scott Institute for Assistance to Needy Persons

On motion of Mayor Day, Board of Control endorsed a resolution commending the work of Rev. Morris Zeidman, of the Scott Institute, in aiding those who find themselves in need of assistance.

The Mayor explained the institute had served about 680,000 meals since it started operation.

“They are doing a very fine work,” Con. Fred Conboy agreed.

Welfare Commissioner Laver informed the board that the institute had supplied 33,000 meals to single unemployed this year, and since 1930 had supplied 676,146 meals to needy persons, without cost to the city.
