Res sooo ee fare Board, announced today that he had been advised by State Welfare Commissioner Leland W. Hiatt that cash payments to Mon- roe county recipients of public assistance for the fiscal year end- | ed. June 30 totaled $164,224.00. Of this amount, Hiatt nad stated, | $114,711.00 was paid to recipients ; of old-age assistance, $28,681.00} to recipients of aid to the blind and $30,832.00 to recipients of aid to dependent children. Pleased With Results Both the State Welfare Board and the District Welfare Board, the Reverend MacConnell said, were pleased that larger legisla- | tive appropriations in 1945 had made it possible to relieve much of the increased need of the aged and blind resulting from higher living costs and reduced incomes. He explained, however, that al- | though appropriations for aid to officer of the center. The Key West man released was Seaman lc Lee W. Griffin, ‘ of 804 Division street. dependent children were larger funds had not permitted investi- gation of new applications filed ; after September 30. Applications for old-age assitance and aid to the blind are investigated on practically a current basis. Reason For Increases Higher cost of living, loss of wartime jobs by persons not nor- mally employable and discon- tinuance of military allowances ; were cited by the Reverend Mac- Connell as principal reasons why the number and need of public assistance recipients had increas- ed during the reconversion and inflationary period. !clare that hundreds of children BRANCH 56 FLEET RESERVE _ Association Will Hold Annual Installation of Branch Officers at 8:30 P.M.
