To the Board of Supervisors, Tompkins County, N. Y. Gentlemen : Your Committee ' on Compensation Insurance reports as follows, for the year ending December 31, 1933. The number of county cases for the year were exceedingly small and the total amounts paid out as compensation for such cases was the sum of $89.37. This amount apportioned among the several municipalities of the county, in accordance with the rules laid down by the Workmen's Compensation Law, results as follows : OF TOMPKINS COUNTY, NEW YORK Caroline $ 1.58 Danby ' • 1.55 Dryden 5.26 Enfield ' .90 Groton 4.85 Ithaca City 56.35 Ithaca Town 8.80 Lansing 4.50 Newfield 1.64 , Ulysses 3.94 Total $89.37 In the matter of the participating municipalities, the towns were not quite so fortunate, as thetotal amount paid was $2,629.77. A large portion of this sum was a settlement for $1,272.06, made with the widowof a ;person whose death was caused by injuries received while in the employment of one of the towns and his widow was entitled to thirty per cent of the deceased's average wage' during her, widowhood. The sum of $2,629.77, thus expended, comprised the follow- ing items Widow's compensation $1;272.06 '. Workmen's compensation ' 783.10 Surgical treatment. ' ' ' 274.00 Hospitalization ' 300.61. Total ' $2,629.77 This amount apportioned among the several participating municipalities in accordance with the rules laiddown, results as follows : ' Caroline $ ,126.07 Danby . ' 123.13 Dryden 418.69 Enfield 73.34 Groton ' 385.95 . , Ithaca Town 700.17 Lansing 358.04 Newfield 130.62' Ulysses 313.76, Total $2,629.77 6 PROCEEDINGS OF THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS Making the total amount expended for compensation insur- ance during the year ending December 31, 1933, the sum of $2,719.14, and to be charged to the several' municipalities of . the county, as follows Caroline $ 127.65 Danby 124.68 Dryden 423.95 Enfield 74.24 Groton 390.80 Ithaca City 56.35 Ithaca Town 708.97 Lansing 362.54 Newfield 132.26 , Ulysses 317.70 ' Total $2,719.14 : From the figures compiled, it would appear that the work men themselves. in the county highway department, as well as those in charge of the work, exercised more care and prudence in the discharge of their duties than did those in the employ of the several towns, as the one large item for which compensa- tion was paid was the result of carelessness, in the first in- stance. , Your committee found that a number of physicians' claims for services were for services rendered to patients on whom no report was ever made for injuries, and, for this reason, said claims were not paid. Your committee also found that some claims presented were either improperly. made out or not verified and these claims have been referred back to the claimants for correction. When the foregoing claims are paid it will increase, to that extent, the amounts to be charged back to the several munici- palities for the current year. Dated, February 12, 1934. LAMONT C.

OF TOMPKINS COUNTY, NEW YO:!K 305 Annual Report of the Tompkins County Tuberculosis Hospital October 31st, 1934. To the Board of Supervisors of Tompkins County, Honorable Sirs, In accordance with the law of New York State, we present our annual report. On October 31st, 1933, we had 19 adults 8 children Admitted 9 adults 6 children Discharged 14 adults 7 children Died 3 adults 0 children There were four cases transferred to other institutions. During the year five patients were admitted who had been in the hospital before. Of those discharged nine were recovered, nine improved and three unimproved. The average gain in weight of the fourteen children was 9 lb. 1 oz., and the average gain for twenty-eight. adults was 12 lbs. 4 oz. Our total days treatment was 8966 and the total expense $22,126.15, thus making a per capita cost of $2.45. We received $1,991.98 from paying patients. There have been several unexpected and unusual expenses during the year. One patient was sent to Monroe County Sanitarium for a major operation on her chest. This resulted in an apparent cure and she is now home after being at our hospital for abouteight years. We have had two diabetic patients, both of whom have had to have insulin, one taking 70 units a day. Other unusual expenses have occurred from the use of newer forms of treatment. This requires Xray equip- ment and so has to be done in Ithaca. Several cases have been 306 PROCEEDINGS OF THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS sent home from RayBrook in which, this treatment has been started and instruction that it be given usually once a week. Doctor Larkin, Doctor McCormick and Doctor Moore have done this work and we feel that it should be a charge against the County until the new hospital is completed. At the time of our report last December, we thought it would be our last year at Taughannock, but owing to unavoid- able difficulties, the new hospital is not completed. The work is now going. on very fast and undoubtedly before another year comes our patients will be in the new buildings. We thank you for your interest in this worthwhile work and hope that the interest will continue even after the State takes over the major part of the work. Respectfully submitted. • R. C.

KING, Notary Public OF TOMPKINS COUNTY,, NEW YORK Annual. Report of Children's Agent TO THE BOARD. OF SUPERVISORS 323 November 1, 1933—October 31,1934 This is the first report to the Board of Supervisors submitted' by the present Children's Agent. It covers work most capably executed by the former Children's Agent, Miss Stella E. Myers, who left Ithaca on July 15th. Because .of lack of familiarity with each individual case, your Agent is not able to make as complete a report as she would wish, although statistical in- formation is readily available. CHILDREN IN THEIR OWN HOMES Children in their own homes come to our attention because they are physically and mentally defective, or because the domestic relations in their homes or the physical condition of these have fallen below standard. Town Commissioners, school teachers, public health nurses, the Children's Court, and interested individuals are instrumental in reporting these cases. New families receiving assistance during the year were to-. cated in Towns as follows : Town No. of families No. of children Caroline 4 11 Danby 2 3 Dryden 7 12 Enfield 2 . 5 Groton 2 6 Ithaca 1 1 Lansing 10 19 Newfield 1 2 Ulysses 6 19 City of Ithaca 26 39 Out -of -settlement 10 25 TOTAL 71 142 At the beginning of the fiscal year one hundred three fam- ilies were under supervision. Adding this figure to the number 324 • PROCEEDINGS OF THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS df new families taken ,on this year as stated above, there .were one hundred seventy-four families which were contacted by the Children's Agent this year. Seventy-eight. families were dropped from supervision. Manycases dropped were taken over by agencies such. as those administering home or work relief ; in some instances advice and assistance or small ma- terial relief such as the use of the Clothing Bureau has been given. More intensive work has been done"on other families, such as when it has been necessary to place children in board- ing homes, or make other plans in a difficult situation. There are now left under supervision ninety-six families, involving two hundred one children. CHILDREN IN BOARDING HOMES When a family situation is beyond help -perhaps has de- teriorated over a period of years, or the death of the .parents makes .the continued establishment of the home impossible, foster home care for the neglected children of these homes 'has become the general practice. In rare cases institutional care is advocated for children, for example, when the foster parents and the children's parents are fighting for the child's loyalty and affection; when protection from a parent is necessary, or when there is a behavior problem, such as a. child who is an exhibitionist and will not be tolerated by any community. Fosterhome care, to repeat, is, however, most generally used in the present day program for children. When it first came to be common, families were ,Sometimes broken up without due consideration of the possibilities in the, home ; the trend at pres- ent is to be more tolerant; we do not expect to inject our own standards into this particular family situation, but plan to view this in the lightof the social environment of the child. By an odd coincidence there are exactly the same number of children under boarding home care at the end of the year as at the beginning. There have been twenty-six children dis- charged from boarding homes, four of whom went either to free or work homes. • .Of the twenty-six placements, three were replacements, while the rest were new. The total number of children under care during the year in boarding homes is one hundred fifteen as compared with one hundred twenty-nine of the last fiscal period. Of the one hundred fifteen children, parents or relatives are partially or wholly paying for the board of thirty-five. The total board and clothing bill is $17,013.77, of which $648.25 has-been paid by parents or rela- tives, $141.50 by other Counties and $20 by a private agency. OF TOMPKINS COUNTY, NEW YORK 325 Parents have always been urged to furnish. clothing for chil- dren, which they do to some extent. The Clothing Bureau has also helped with the clothing of children in boarding homes. The following tabulation indicates 'the number of children boarded according to Towns :.

Roman Catholic Institutions in Rochester. CHILDREN .IN FREE HOMES During the year four children have been transferred from boarding to free homes; one to •a working home; two to rela- tives, and another to a home where adoption may eventually take place. Twenty-seven children were under supervision in free homes during the year; five were discharged to -relatives. Two of these are boys now members of CCC Camps; At the 326 PROCEEDINGS OF THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS end of the year there were twenty-two children under super- vision in free homes. ' CHILDREN IN WORK HOMES On October 31, 1934, there were two children under super- vision in work homes, as compared with three of last year. UNMARRIED MOTHERS Of the twenty-nine unmarried mother cases handled by this office this year, nineteen were new and ten were old cases con- tinued under supervision. According to Towns they were lo- cated as follows :', Towns Number Caroline 1 Danby 0 Dryden 4 Enfield 0 Groton 1 Ithaca 0 Lansing 4 Newfield 0 Ulysses 1 ' City of Ithaca 18 29 While nineteen of these cases have become Town charges, ten are being at least partially taken care of, as faras finances. are concerned, by relatives. In nine cases, babies were boarded and in two of these, the home have' become free since place- ment. In ten instances, cases were taken into Court in order to establish paternity and obtain support for the' child in ques- tion. Whenever a mother releases her child for adoption, this placement is made through the State Charities Aid Associa- tion. This practice has become common throughout the State as it is much better for the .child and the people adopting him not to be known locally. CHILDREN'S COURT In addition to the ten cases of unmarried mothers, four other cases have been taken into Children's Court during the past year, asking either for commitment or for support. The OF TOMPKINS COUNTY, NEW YORK 327 Judge of the Court asks the Children's Agent to make investi- gations in certain cases which come before him. BOARD OF CHILD WELFARE The Children's Agent assists the Board of Child Welfare by making investigations of applications coming to its atten- tion. During the past year, eight of these have been made The. Agent also attends the monthly meetings of this Board. RED CROSS A share of the Agent's time is spent in Red Cross service. During this period the following number of cases were handled 18 ex -service cases - 28 home service cases 26 transients 18 out-of-town inquiries 90 In summing up the foregoing, the Agent handled` for the County Department .of Public Welfare the following number of cases during the year : 96 families with children in their own homes 78 families with children in boarding homes 29 unmarried mother cases 10 out-of-town inquiries. 8 Board of Child Welfare cases 221 Adding to this the ninety cases contacted by the Red Cross, the Agent worked with three hundred eleven families during the current year. • The Children's Agent wishes to take this opportunity to express her appreciation of the cooperation and consideration which has been extended her by the Commissioner of Public Welfare, the Joint Committee and the . Supervisors, Public Officials and interested individuals. Respectfully submitted, ANNA K. BUELL Children's Agent 328 PROCEEDINGS OF THE BOARD Or SUPERVISORS Report of Case Worker March 1 to -December 1, 1934 Since the 1st of March the Case Worker has cared for, in her regular work, 125 cases: These include Home Relief 82 Transient families 20 Service cases 23. Besides these she handled 70 inquiries, which are important because almost always they involve the matter of settlement. Home Relief The only Home. Relief cases handled. in this office arethe farnilies who are living out. of settlement. This means that the settlement must be determined in each case, .and acceptance obtained from the .home County or• City of the client.' We have been fortunate in that our decisions are almost never disputed. These 82 families include 43 new and 14 re- opened, that is, cases that have received relief at sometime prior to March 1st. There were 4 veterans among the 82; and they had to be reported separately to the T. E. R. A. 71 of the 82 cases were family groups ; the monthly average carried was 31. During the 9 months included in this report, home- , relief orders were written to the amount of $3,253.46, or a monthly average of $361.49. The total includes Veteran Re- lief $198.54, and non-resident re-imbursable $139.16. Transient Families Since the 1st of May, the Case Worker has taken care of this group. This office no longer deals with unattached men. The work with families is more satisfactory, since they are seldom wanderers but simply families who have not acquired a settlement in this State. Nearly half of this group settled their problems by finding work or by•going back unassisted to their home State. In the group were 3 unat- tached men, accepted because they were unusual cases, and they proved to be among the least satisfactory to deal with. Home Relief was given to an average of 4 families a month, and orders from the 1st of May totaled $339.68. Service Cases These are cases in which some action was taken or service was rendered, but Horne Relief was not found necessary. 23 such cases were helped. OF TOMPKINS COUNTY, NEW YORK • 329 Inquiries The 70 inquiries included requests for informa- tion as to the settlement of people now residing in other places ; inquiries as to the settlement and need of relief of emergency hospital cases, and inquiries as to the settlement of transients found in other States. These -cases sometimes require a good deal of investigation and take a rather important place in the Case Worker's duties. The Case Worker's duties are not entirely confined to case work. As occasion requires, she doe's other things. • In June she re -registered all the men on the County Work Projects. This necessitated visiting each job and taking the registration of each man at work there. The Case Worker wrote' the. Federal Food orders for several months and now writes them on the busiest days. Federal Foods for the County are all dispensed in .Ithaca at Stewart's Warehouse. They are given out twice a week but each recipient comes once in two weeks. •This divides the load and makes it unnecessary for the people to come in go often. Orders are given to Horne Relief Cases, Work Relief cases and any others recommended by the Town Welfare Officers. In the last two weeks, 330 families, were served. The Case Workergives out the Clothing Bureau orders for the office. - Since she began work here, she has worked on 12 Child' Wel- fare cases. This was done, either to assist the Children's Agent or to meet a need in the interval between her leaving and the arrival of her successor. Four of these cases involved commitment to an institution. • Respectfully submitted L. M. HOAG Case .
