Paul Ludlow when they met in regular session last Thursday morning at Brownie’s cafe. His talk was entitled "The False Wit ness’’ as he made a comparison of TV advertising and the ninth commandment. Table topic was “What Would George Washington Think if He Visited Us Today?” Bob Sherbert served as toast master, Jeff Ford was topic mas ter, Gene Chester was grammar ian and John Olsen acted as “Ah” counter. Chamber Endorses Local Vo-Ag Project (Continued from Page 1) $65 by Dirick Nedry and was to be shared by Lions club and the local PTA. The brochures were already printed at the time of approval by the chamber and for that rea son credit was not given on them as one of the sponsoring groups. Explains Effect of Law Changes Dell in Erickson gave a brief background of the welfare pro gram and the proposed changes in income tax laws, together with the effects the changes would bring. He said if disallowance of con tributions up to 5 percent of tax able income were made, it would adversely affect churches. Scout organizations. Heart fund, TB Seal sales. Cancer fund, etc., be cause many present givers did not donate this high a proportion of their income. Welfare Costs Rising Erickson said Oregon adopted ADC-UN (aid to dependent chil dren of unemployed parents) in 1961 to get more federal aid and cut down the amount of state and local funds used. Under the gen eral assistance plan in use in the state prior to that time 70 percent of public welfare costs were borne by the state and 30 percent j by the county with payments av eraging $65 a month for a family of five. And three year residence was required for eligibility. Under the plan adopted in 1961 the federal government paid ap proximately 50 percent, state 35 percent and county 15 percent. It was considered an emergency measure in a period of high un employment in Oregon. Under the plan the same family of five (previously getting $65) was now getting $180 per month. Residence requirement under this program is only one year to qua lify permanently. Oregon is one of 15 states adop ting this plan. It is also the only one of the western states using the plan and as a result the wel fare case load is growing very rapidly. He cited as an example the fol lowing case: a migrant laborer and family come to Oregon in April to work in the crops and remain through the October har vest. The laborer then applies for general assistance (for which there is no residence time limit requirement). Then in April he can permanently qualify for the higher amount under ADC-UN. Quite frequently, in the larger families, the welfare check is lar ger than the amount he could earn if gainfully employed, thus reducing any incentive to work. School Board Head Explains Need Of Proposed Building (Continued from Page I) the biology department full and adequate facilities of its own. At present biology shares two class rooms with chemistry, physics and general science; and there is simply not enough room for these science classes which are so im- portant today. Bond Issue Set at $95,000 In addition to the $55.000 for the ag building, the remodeling and equipping of these two class rooms will cost an additional $34.- . 000. These costs plus architect, legal and contingency will bring the proposed bond issue to $95,- 000. It will cost the taxpayer about three-fourths of one mill a year for 15 years to retire the bonds, or about $1.85 per year for each $10,000 worth of property. The school board has studied these problems from every angle and we feel that this is the most desirable and economical plan that can be presented to meet our needs at the high school level for many years to come. On behalf of the school board I urge every registered voter of the school district to vote Monday, March 4, 1963. at the little theater of the high school between the hours of 2 and 8 p.m. Classified* Bring Resultai VISIT IN FLINDERS HOME Guests at the home of Mr. and Mrs. J.
