Polk Welfare
Funds Reduced
Dallas The Polk county pub
11c welfare commission at its
meeting this week approved
luspensions and reductions in
public assistance grants total
ling $11,358 for the months of
May and June. This action was
necessary to bring payments in
line with county funds avail
able for the balance of this fis
cal year.
April grants were as follows:
Old age assistance, $20,701, aid
to dependent children $5729,
blind assistance $392 and gen
eral assistance $3700. For the
months of May and June these
tame programs have been re
duced to $13,103 for old age as
sistance, $3550 for aid to de
pendent children, $264 for blind
assistance and $2200 for general
assistance.
What the situation will be in
Polk county for public assis
tance for the ensuing year can
not be anticipated at this time as
it will depend upon funds avail
able after the 1947-48 budget has
been approved. If it does not
exceed the $61,000 appropriat
ed for 1946-47 it will not be
possible to restore grants to their
former amounts in the opinion
of the commission members.
Approximately $ 5 0 0 0 per
month was available from coun
ty funds to pay for its portion
of costs, but actual expenditures
have been in excess of $6000,
necessitating the drastic cuts
for the next two months.
