During the Tuesday night meeting in Salem, Pullman presented a copy of a letter supporting the commission. He objected strenuously to Gov. Mark Hatfield's prior remarks that the "rolls are shot through with cheats." "This certainly implies that the county welfare commis sion and staff are not doing their job properly," the local administrator said. "No one on earth could ad minister this program without a certain number of persons trying to obtain assistance ! to fraudulently. However the def inition of abuses is so ambig uous that to each of us it may mean different things. In most cases it does not mean ob tining public assistance illeg ally or that the staff has been negligent."

Certainly there is room for improvement, and 1 have never hesitated to criticize and they have re- j spectcd my right to criticize," Pullman added. Pullman listed as commis sion accomplishments: (1) manual material on rules and regulations clarified, (2) per sonnel has improved in qual ity and salaries are better.

OF SMITH & MEN Bv Jack Smith IfiO Timcs-Mlrror Syndicate (Jack Smith is ill with am osmosis stoppage. His doctor has taken him . off solids and television and he is not al lowed to type. Today's column is written by the little girl next door, who has done this for him twice before, when she was younger.) I'm grateful for this oppor tunity to express myself. Mr. Smith says he likes my stuff, but I must be careful not to become too sophisticated. My mother says I am not a child any more and should quit writing for Mr. Smith, because I might reveal myself subconsciously. She says I am reaching the age where I should hide everything. We'll pay you ZjOv to taste why so many people say: lilt ' 'wrWk ,sk' i if ' "Pm an utter nut alout Butter-Nut!"

Mr. Smith says my develop ment is' splendid, and he should know. He is very lit erary, for our block. He came home from the library yester day with four books and left one in the car, which turned out to be "Roaming in Ha waii' by Harold Frank. Mr. Smith has visited many places and had many marvelous ex periences, through books. He says I should read Edgar All ien iJoe. He says he is going to chuck everything some day and really go some place and do something, but I don't know. He always has car trou ble, and I heard Mrs. Smith telling him the other day that something had to be done about their lawn. Mr.. Smith told her that if the Good Lord wanted.grass in their yard, He would nave planted it there Mr. Smith is a very religious man. Mrs. Smith told him the Lord helps those who help themselves. He said that was a shibboleth. I hope when Mr. Smith's boys start driving they get a better car. I hope I'm not be ing a snob, but I think dignity is very important, especially at my age. My mother says it isn't the car that's important but the driver. My mother is a very wonderful woman, but she is quite old. She has lost interest in life. She won't even get her hair dyed. She says the Lord gave her the color her hair is, and she in tends to keep it. In that way she is like Mr. Smith about his lawn. Mr. Smith's hair is begin ning to get grey at the tem ples. He says that when it is all gray, he will have the dig nity he has always wanted. But it's a slow process. He says he is growing old waiting for his hair to turn grey, Mr. Smith is a very funny person, but I think he is very sincere. Sometimes he has pure wisdom. He was the one who told me I was getting too old to climb trees, and he was right, because finally I fell and cut my lip, Mr. Smith explained that when girls get to be my age their balance changes, and they ought to stay on the ground and wear high heels. Now he says he has the os mosis. He says it is something he contracted in the war, and it comes back every now and then, especially on week ends. He isn't in bed, though. I went over to their place to borrow some nutmeg, and he was in the living room on the couch working at his typewriter. He says he is writing the life of Emily Dickinson for a television spectacular. , That's funny, though, be cause he isn't supposed to type. Mr. Smith is a superior neighbor, 1 think.
