held Monday afternoon by a re
port of Administrator Kenneth
Peterson.
Old age assistance, aid to de
pendent children and blind as
sistance were over expended on
a pro rata basis approximately
$17,2053. On the surplus side of
the ledger were general assis
tance and aid to totally incapaci
tated in almost equal amount
With the next two months ex
pected to show the greatest de
mand upon the welfare depart
ment, there will be no easing up
of the purse strings, even though
the contributions are already
fairly low, it was reported. It is
anticipated the old age assistance
fund will he' over expended by
some $30,000 by the end of the
fiscal year if the present trend
continues.
Elimination of aid to chronic
medical cases as such may effect
a saving, Peterson estimates.
Such cases will be handled on a
day to day basis.
The budget for the 1953-54 fis
cal year included $1,100,000 for
old age assistance of which ap
proximately $564,000 has been
expended.
A half dozen proposals in con
nection with housing for the wel
fare department have been re
ceived. Some arc for new build
ings which would be leased. Oth
ers arc for the remodeling of
present structures. All will be
turned over to the state depart
ment for consideration.

hope at least, but not much else."

Pentagon Monday, asking for a
chance to go to Korea to try to
convince the unrepatriated pris

there."
They said afterwards they were
told the government is bound by
Korean truce regulations and their
main hope is that the boys would
decide at the last minute to re
turn home. The deadline for re
lease of unrepatriated prisoners
from the neutral zone was 9 a.m.
Tuesday. ..
Mrs. Bell said her husband, Cpl.

riation calling for a united effort
to try to get them to change their
minds.
No Control on
Onion Maggots
PORTLAND Wl The Pacific
Northwest Vegetable Insect Coun
cil was told Monday that no way
has yet been found to control mag
gots which are infesting Lake
Labish area onions.
Tests with chlordane and other
chemical bug killers mixed with
seed have resulted in failure, H.
H. Crowell of Oregon State College
reported. '
Tests will continue, however,
and the next step will be applica-.
tipn of chemicals along the rows,
he said.
Lake Labish area growers last
year lost 50 to 100 per cent of their
crops because of the maggots,
Crowell reported.
Other tests revealed that isodrin
was effective in controlling cab
bage maggots in radish and turnip
fields in the Northwest. The chem
ical gave 98 percent control in the
first year in a test radish plot and
95 percent control in a turnip
patch.
