Slight Upward
Tendency
By FRED ZIMMERMAN

The Marion county public yiel-
fare commission is currently
spending 586,000 a month on old
age assistance for 1,335 individual
cases, reported Kenneth Peterson,
administrator of the organization
as he elaborated on a statement
issued from the state public wel

The state commission's state
ment dealt with the recent trag
edy in Klamath county where a
recipient of old age assistance
killed the administrator and ser
iously injured a commissioner be
cause he felt he wasn't being
dealth with justly.
Slight Upward Tendency
Peterson said the old age assist
ance load in Marion county is
snowing a slight upward tendency
in recent weeks after experiencing
a decline during the past two
years.
A recommendation by uovernor
Robert Holmes, contained in his
message to the legislature, tnat
the so-called dependency law in
volving assistance to needy rela
tives be repealed is an undeter
mined factor for figuring financial
relief loads, said Peterson. He re
ported that already his office has
received inquiries concerning the
governor's recommendation.

called a "pension," is provided on
a budgetary need basis taking into
consideration the individual's re

and Naturalization Service re
minded all aliens in the state of
Oregon today that only two weeks
remain in which non-citizens must
file their annual address report as
required by law.
Ernest J. Hover, district direc
tor, pointed out that address re
port forms are available at the
nearest immigration service office
or post office for the convenience
of non-citizens required to report
their address to the government
each January under a provision of

its allotments for various articles.
These include $32 a month for
food, $4.50 for personal incidentals,
$6, clothing: and $3.20 for house
hold supplies and replacements,
all on an individual basis.
Water allowance is based on ac
tual cost in each water district,
while the monthly amount for fuel
depends upon the average cost
within each county. Fuel allow
ances range from a minimum of
$6 a month to a maximum of
$17.50, depending upon the type of
fuel and the number of heated
rooms.
Each county public welfare com
mission sets a maximum standard
allowance for shelter that can be
found within the community, com
patible with decency and health.
Locally the average cost to the
county for housing is $40. How
ever, in cases of large families the
commission may pay as much as
$65 or $70 for adequate shelter. In
any event the amount the county
will pay is determined after a gen
eral survey.
Utility allowances, such as elec
tricity for lights, refrigeration, wa
ter heating and cooking, range
from $1.50 to $8.15, depending upon
the number in the family.
Administrator Peterson reports
that the outlay for general assist
ance is running higher than usual
for this time of year. This type of
aid is given to employable persons
who are not able to find work.
They are given a sum that equals
85 per cent of their food costs. A
