o e Nyssa Gate City Journal VOLUME LV The Sugar City County Welfare Report Released At its regular monthly meeting Sept. 22, 1960, the Malheur county Public Welfare commission re viewed figures on caseloads and expenditures for August. At the end of August it had 364 active cases, as compared to 370 for August of 1959. This reflects a decrease in old age assistance, aid to disabled and foster home care. However, both aid to dependent children and general assistance caseloads have increased. It is felt that the in crease in general assistance reci pients reflects the increased me chanization of crop harvest in Malheur county, thereby reduc ing the number of seasonal work ers needed and also limiting the work period for those who are employed. The administrator also discuss ed changes in general assistance monthly allocations. This, in es sence, gives Malheur county a preliminary monthly allocation of funds for the general assistance program and also provides the authority to vary the range of food standards from the 100 per cent on which the allocation is based to a minimum of 85 per cent for resident general assist ance cases and 65 to 85 percent for non-resident general assist ance cases. It is hoped that by providing for flexibility in food standards Malheur county will be able to operate an adequate gen eral assistance program within the funds allowed. The administrator also explain ed the work relief program and it was voted to initiate this program as soon as feasible. It was arrang ed for Andrew Juras, assistant administrator of the State Public Welfare commission, to meet with the Malheur County Welfare com mission and assist in implement ing this program as soon as pos sible. THE NYSSA GATE CITY JOURNAL, NYSSA, OREGON. THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 3. I960 County Corn Price Commercial College Open New Classes Support Rate Set r To Ludwig Commercial college in With the main corn harvest un der way, the Malheur ASC Coun ty committee announced that the j price support rate for 1960-crop corn in the county will definite ly be $1.17. The county rate is based on a national average of $1.06 a bushel. Under the law, the 1960 support rate for corn is fixed at 65 percent of parity (90 percent of the aver age farm price for the past three years). Under this provision, the 1960 support rate is 6 cents a bushel lower than in 1959. The final rate is unchanged from the minimum price support rate for the county. The mini mum was a preliminary rate an nounced in advance of harvest to enable the corn price support pro gram to begin promptly. Final rate was determined on the basis of later information available at the opening of the corn marketing year Oct. 1. To be eligible for price support, corn must grade No. 3 or better (except that No. 4 because of test weight only is acceptable), must meet certain moisture require ments and must also be in ade quate storage. Any farmer wishing to apply for a corn loan should contact his county ASC office.
