that it mav completely counteract the drain on funds which re-

Man of Theft
Charged with larceny of three
cases of cigarettes from a boxcar
on the Oregon Electric railway
May 14, Carlton Norcross; Salem
resident for the past two months,
was arrested Saturday afternoon
by state police. " .-.
Norcross, who allegedly con
fessed to Sergeant Farley Mogan
that he rode In the car from Sa

ettes off beside the tracks a short
distance this side of the Linn
county city and then returned in
his automobile to collect the loot,
had approximately two cases in
his possession when the arrest

Most of the persons receiving
direct relief and capable of pick
ing berries have been contacted,
it was declared at the public wel
fare office Saturday. Although
there are many of these who for
reasons of health are able to work
only part time and others who
cannot provide transportation to
and from fields, a majority are
either already picking or planning
to start when school closes. -
Heads of families. In many
Instances, are unable to work,
because most of the families on
relief today are those which
would ordinarily be supported
by a person or persons now un
employable, but others of the'
household will work in the
harvest, according to Mrs. Eli
sabeth GaUaber, caseworker in
the northern portion of the
county.
One elderly woman wiuV )
small grandchild in her home has
assured the welfare office that
she will need no aid for at least
a month because of strawberry'
picking income. In some instances
the money from picking will only
partially support a family and
relief funds, as they are avail
able,, will be apportioned to fill
remaining needs, it was said.
This spring's WPA layoff in
creased greatly the direct relief
load brinrfnr April's case load
to the highest ever taUied dur
ing that month In Marion coun
ty. This past week there were
277 persons certified for WPA
work not on WPA rolls, Hol
comb said, and that number Is
far below the similar list for
early May. Funds available for
direct relief have been stretch
ed, he said, but have not been
sufficient to meet all actual
needs.
Private employment , has low
ered relief lists, and the aid of
berry . picking money may make
available sufficient moneys to aid
in rehabilitation of still other of
the welfare office's clients so that
they, too, may shortly drop from
the rolls and agam enter the
ranks of the privately-employed,
welfare workers believe.
