What will be moot needed In tha new undertaking la such power and re sourres." The comtniasion haa aa ordinance pend ing providing only for recreation. Now; it baa decided.

Roma of these provisions, nine ex plained, may be engrafted Into the pres. at elty charter, but some will require special legislative action and so the whole matter will be put up to the legislature. What la contemplated Is a walfsre or ganization oo-ordlnatlng alt the varied elements of social and econorrrto better ment In the city, go as to a vol 4 waste of time, money and effort and really "get somewhere." Dr. Frederick Cohn, president of the newly organised Omaha Welfare asso ciation, started the speech -making by emphasising this point Then Ommls sloner Ryder took osoaatnn tn ,. one of the big needs waa provision for the unemployed, such as haa been made In Kansas City.
