The War on Poverty The War on Poverty.. What is it? by Frank E. Mullen Poverty Programs... A Business Management Approach by Jean-Paul A. Ruff Editor's Note: The War on Poverty, like most wars, has its share of staunch supporters as well as vociferous opponents. Like most wars, (and like most businesses) it requires skillful management for its ultimate success. Most of the current debate about the War on Poverty program stems from disagreements with the way the resources appropriated for the program are being used or managed. Touche, Ross, Bailey & Smart has applied modern management techniques to business, as well as to social action programs (See "Business Management Methods in Social Action Programs" in the June 1965 Quarterly). For this reason, the firm has been engaged by the City of Detroit to help make the management of its War on Poverty program more effective. Frank Mullen and Jean-Paul Ruff, from our Detroit Management Services staff, have attempted in the following two articles to give you a clear picture of the War on Poverty program and to describe the management system they are trying to develop for Detroit. We hope you will find in these articles some new insights into management problems involved in a dynamic social action program. They also represent the contribution professional management advisors can make to the solution of these social and community problems. JUNE, 1966 19
