A budget of 88000, a figure higher than in any month in the past two years, has been set aside for general relief for Feb ruary, Mr. Altha P. Urquhart of tne welfare oince disclosed to day. Among the employables seek ing aid are persons wanting help during the period before unem ployment insurance payments begin, marginal workers who are the first to lose jobs when an employment pinch comes and even a few ex-servicemen. Most of the persons applying Truman Asks Congress To Reduce Funds WASHINGTON, Jan. 14 (IP) President Truman today recom mended to congress cutbacks in appropriations and contract au thorizations which he said would amount to $5,021,888,483. This Would be in addition to 150,349,409,169 in recissions ap proved by congress near the close of the last session. The president requested the reductions in funds for war and civilian agencies. He explained in a statement that appropria tions totaling $5,751,428,483 and contract authorizations of $420, 079,000 should be repealed but that future necessary appropria tions to liquidate contracts would total $1,149,620,000. The statement said: "While the $50.3 billion recis sion bill ($51.8 billions less du plications between cash and con tract authority of $15 billion) was vetoed because of a legisla tive rider, its objectives were ac complished by a presidential di rective to the budget director, placing in reserve the sums con tained in the bill." The statement said that the actual reduction in authority to obligate the government in to day's recommendations is $5, 021,887,483 because $1,149,620, 000 of the appropriations not needed during the current fiscal year and now recommended for repeal "will have to be appropri ated in subsequent years to liquidate contract authority still on the books." ' In addition to the other recom mendations, the president pro posed the return to the treasury of $348,890 in corporate funds. for money were known to relief agencies, either here or else where, before the war, However, by the last statisti cal report. Klamath county's general relief burden per capita is still the lowest in the state 40 cents per capita as compared to the state average of $1.07. The February budget was ap proved by the county commission on tho probability that help would have to be extended per sons who arc capable of working for a living. Another factor In setting aside the unusual amount is that cost per case has not declined The cost of living even at bare sub sistence levels is still high. , During the past two years in Klamath county, when any per son wanting to work could find something to do, no employable persons were given relief by the welfare office and the monthly budget for general assistance ran from $3600 to a maximum of $5000 a month.
