(Welfare Training jProgram Subject Of Discussion The Jackson county court . this morning discussed the , new welfare training program for aid to dependent children .mothers, but reached no deci sion on how the program " should be carried out. County Judge Earl M. Mil ler and County Commissioner t Edwin Taylor voted in favor ;of the program at the recent county welfare commission .'meeting as did the other com mission members. County Commissioner Don Faber op- , posed the program and stated it would be a problem for the county to set the salaries for auch a job. I The training program, new to this county starting about eTuly 1, would provide six rnonths of part-time training 'lor ADC mothers who have 110 job in sight and do not plan to be remarried in the Eear future. Start of the program awaits snfirmation in a letter to the atate welfare commission from he county court and further job description. I Tentative plans call for Clerical oositions at the coun ty dog pound, county surplus food center and the Public Li brary of Medford and Jackson County. The county would provide industrial accident in surance for the five or six tmployees to be trained in the positions, and the welfare . commission would provide the salaries. t Trainees would be selected by the welfare department caseworkers and must have chool-age children or baby fitters for pre-school age chil dren, it was explained.
