YKKKA Wilbur M. Van Over.

rector, asked Ihe county board ot
supervisors if they wanted a tight,
liberal or medium relief pro

directed Van Over lo draw up a
formal county general relief pol

It was suggested by Supervis
or S. C. Jackson that the county
should continue to follow its past
practice of having a broad plan,
leaving considerable discretion to
the director.
One present practice that could
be considered controversial,
brought out by Van Over, was
