Galveston relief funds report details misuse and building aid
A March joint legislative inquiry into Galveston relief funds and housing projects reveals that relief houses were built on land rented to well-to-do owners, with 15 000 to 20 000 used to fill holes and districts benefiting committee members. The central committee allocated 450 000 for homes for storm victims, and the building committee allowed leases or purchases with contractors ensuring lot owners had no claims on the houses. The report notes houses on leased lots could be moved if needed and that funds were used only for streets and alleys. The Military Ball arrangement committee included K of P, Foreaters, and Meagher Guards representatives.
