BOAKD POINTS OUT WELFARELAWS NEED VARIOUS CHANGES Problems confronting . the De- parment of Public Welfare due to changing economic conditions in Alaska, plus the need for changing of laws pertaining to departmenta! work, were discussed today by ‘the semi-annual conference of the pub- lic welfare board. The board consists of a member from each division, presided over by Gov. Ernest Gruening, chairman, and Henry A. Harmon, department director. Harmon believed the board would complete its three-day meet this afternoon, with a conference of the planning board for the Commission on Children and Youth, a new divi- sion set up recently in the depart- | needy ones.” g This situation is due to the tre-, mendous rise in the case load now being carried, the increase being unexpected when money was last! ippropriated, he explained. | Programs under deparumental re- | sponsibility are: aid to dependent| children, juvenile code, old age assistance, general relief, and child welfare service. Harmon reviewed happenings which affected the department’s op- eration since its last meeting, such as the increase in hospital rates tor needy patients; continuation of the restricted medical assistance policy; the $30 limit on general relief; re- establishment of the Nome oftice, and child welfare service progress in Fairbanks. Dr. C. Earl Albrecht, head of the Department of Health, appeared before the board to explain legisla- tion pending in Congress on weltare and health stance, and Don C. Foster, area director of the Alsska' Native Service, appeared to discuss joint welfare problems concerning his service and the welfare board. ST.

Such is the case since the Jast Squadron meeting February 15. Moreover, as the top CAP admin- istrative officers here also are ac- tive in reesrve military units, their individual ranks are as variable. As Squadron Commander, Allan G. Marcum holds a temporary Air Force commission as major, On the staff of the Alaska National Guard as administrative assistant to the First Scout Battalion, he is a sé- cond lieutenant in the Guard. He recently went to Nome for three months’ duty for the Guard. In his absence and that of the executive officer, 1st Lt. Everett R. Erickson moves up to the role of temporary nmander. Erickson has a reserve commission as major in the U. S. Air Force. Milton J. Furness, 3 has a temporary Air Force commission as captain for his CAP duties. And it seems that he also is a Navy reserve officer. Enough of that. Concerned less with titles and more with the activities of the Civ- il Air Patrol, members of the sen- jor group and of the new Cadet Corps will meet this evening at 7:30 o'clock in the Engineer’s office at the Army dock. . wanis “ladies’ night” dinner and| ynder the instruction program orogram with a St. Patrick’s Day’planned by Lt.
