Talk Informs Club
Of Welfare Work
Through Local Office
The function of public wel
fare work In Morrow county was
brought to the attention or
members of the Soroptimist club
at Its luncheon meeting 1-cb
ruary 8. Uuest speaker was
Mrs. Shirley Loyd, who serves
as case worker for the Morrow
county welfare office.
"Most people have an aver
sion to public welfare," she said
and related how many times the
possibilities of help which could
be given is overlooked or snun
ned by those who are really In
need. It Is actually lust anoth
er segment of the Social Secur-
itv Act of 1933. she pointed out,
whereby welfare aid is looked
upon as a "grant". ADout DU7o
of the money used for welfare
aid comes from the U. S. govern
ment, with the other 50 7o com
ing from the state and county.
It is set up under state stand
ards, and is therefore the same
in all counties.
Various qualifications and
regulations were discussed by
Mrs. Loyd, which serve as bas
ic rules for applicants. Morrow
county carries an average of 60
welfare cases, with the majority
in the area giving assistance to
the elderly. Through their work
with needy families in the coun
ty they find several emotional
and mental problems, and
tronglv support a mental
health clinic which could be of
great assistance in this partic
ular area. Many cases are refer
red to other agencies through
out the year. A period of open
discussion brought out interest
ing comments on accomplish
ments experienced through the
county office.
Under the chairmanship oi
Miss Terry Lincecum, art teach
er, guest books are being pre
pared for permanent care pa
