RELIEF PROBLENS OF N. D. OUTLINED < NOCOMMISSIONERS Welfare Board Wants Advice But No ‘Monkey Wrenches,’ DePuy Declares Minot, N. D., Jan. 15.—(4#)—Prob- lems of. relief administration under the state and county welfare board setup occupied the attention of coun- ty commissioners of North Dakota during most of the forenoon session of the 29th annual convention in Minot Wednesday. An address by H.C. DePuy, of Grafton, representing the state wel- fare board, was followed by a discus- sion on the subject of relief, particu- larly as to methods of providing med- ical relief under the new setup. In this discussion E. A. Willson, ‘Bismarck, executive secretary of the state board, Frank Milhollan, Bis- merck, and Dr. A. D. McCannel, Minot, both members of the board, assisted DePuy in answering questions of county officials. Outlines Legislation DePuy outlined the history of the legislation creating the welfare board setup, the aims and purposes of the * Yoard’s work, and concluded with this statement: “Any reluctance on your part will slow up this whole machtn- ery. Give us your friendly advice and criticism, but we do not want you to * throw a monkey wrench in the ma- chine.” The commissioners were told about @ detailed plan which the welfare board is submitting to Washington under which North Dakota would ob- tain federal aid in granting old age ‘Denefits as provided by the social se- curity act. The plan ts not a pension plan, he said, but provides for bene- fits to be paid to the aged upon the basis of need. W. J. Flannigan of Bismarck, state highway commissioner, discussed the ‘WPA road building program and snow removal.

Provide an honest dollar, one just to debtors and creditor alike, and preventing uncontrolled infla- tion or deflation. 7. Support the of farmer owned and farmer cont led coopera- tives as a matter of sound national policy. 8. Maintain ample rural credit facilities. Transfer greater power to cooperative associations and borrow- ers. Provide crop insurance and main- tain interest rates at the lowest pos- sible level. 9. Center all land use problems in the department of agriculture. 10. Consider consumer interest and seek to expand consumption of all American grown farm products. The Grange program is to be sub- mitted to the national agricultural conference meeting on Thursday. The action showed a definite split in farm groups which met here last week at Secretary Wallace’s behest. Some of them are enthusiastic in sup- port of the administration program, which it is indicated will center around subsidized soil conservation aimed at production control. Alien to New Deal Ideas Grange officials claimed wide farm support for increased tural tariffs, subsidized exports and co- operative marketing. Much of this peperam is alien to administration leas.
