SHRIMP, EGGS IN NOVEL DISH Hometown News Sunday callers at the home of Mr. and Mrs. S.C. Mc­ Connell were their grand­ daughter Mr. and Mrs. Gary Mumford and great-grand­ daughter Shelly of Boise. ♦ ♦ ♦ Mr. and Mrs. Joe Maughn spent March 26 in Boise on business and visiting friends. If the egg and you are beginning to look at each other with increasing interest, could be a sign of Spring. But before you color them (or even after) add a small can of shrimp to your plans. The combination in this luncheon or late supper dish is a novel, delightful one in which the eternal hard-cooked egg is fluffed and stuffed with shrimp, then baked in a savory sauce. Mr. and Mrs. Glenn Marcum Bill and Sara attended the Basketball Tournament at Eu­ gene last week. While there they visited his brother Mr. and Mrs. Melvin Marcum and family and his sis­ ter Mr. and Mrs. A.C. Boronti of Eugene. They visited her sister Mr. and Mrs. Richard Herriman of Medford who were also in Eugene for the tourna­ ment. Drain shrimp, reserving liquid in the can. If shrimp are small or tiny, reserve 12 or more for garnishing. Chop the rest coarsely and set aside. Peel and halve the eggs. In a bowl, mash yolks and combine with shrimp liquid, buttered crumbs, onion, parsley, and chopped shrimp. Separately, combine sour cream with raw yolk, mustard, and salt; whisk together thoroughly. Stuff egg whites with shrimp mixture; garnish with any reserved shrimp. Arrange in a shallow baking dish and cover with sour cream sauce. Bake in a pre-heated 350-degree oven 25 minutes or until sauce is set and delicately browned. 6 servings. now—with a home improvement loan program that will help people beautify their homes.

Salem Scene It would be a mistake to des­ cribe the 56th Legislative As­ sembly's attitude toward wel­ fare as charitable. And that attitude may “har­ den” considerable. Subjected to almost ceaseless investigation since last session Oregon’s Public Welfare Divi­ sion now is the target of a probe that could produce the most far-reaching results to date. Early this year the Execu­ tive Department authorized up to $45,000 for a study of wel­ fare recipient eligibility. It’s being conducted by Touche-Ross Co., a nationwide consulting firm. Results are to be made public April 7. Similar studies in neigh­ boring and nearby states have revealed improper welfare pay­ ments ranging as high as 22%. No one expects results that alarming here. But even wel­ fare’s strongest adherents be­ lieve people are pretty much the same everywhere. And some observers believe Oregon’s welfare service to ineligibles will approach 20%. Reducing Oregon’s welfare caseload by that percentage could save the state as much as $900,000 monthly! A revelation of this magni­ tude could produce a serious set-back for welfare’s legisla­ tive proponents. It could di­ vert attention from other major issues confronting the current assembly. And it could arm welfare opponents with fresh ammunition at a time when ex­ panded assistance is gaining friends throughout the country. Long an entrenched govern­ ment function, welfare’s fiscal burden is the traditional bane to those who seek to balance existing funds with apparent need. The 1969 Legislature eliminated county government’s welfare responsibility by shift­ ing it entirely to the state. Present theory calls for joint state-federal funding and ad­ ministration. But federal funds are dependent upon state com­ pliance with federal regulations. Oregon’s current welfare crisis erupted shortly after the ’69 session adjourned. Admin­ istrators projected a$ 19 million deficit — caused by soaring caseloads. Piecemeal mea­ sures were quickly enforced to take up the slack. Liquor prices were boosted, capital construction curtailed and a general spending cutback or­ dered in all state agencies. Thereafter the governor’s Management 70s Task Force extensively scrutinized wel­ fare’s operational procedures. Only a few Task Force recom­ mendations required legislative action. Most already have been implemented or are under study by the agency. And Executive Department Task Force moved in and assisted with imple­ mentation -- headed by the governor’s fiscal expert, Cleighton Penwell. A special House Task Force chaired by Rep. Anthony Meeker (R-Amity) was named following elections last fall to further study welfare’s problems with an eye toward producing legis­ lative remedies. Gov. Tom McCall, in his January inaugural, charged law­ makers with a need for sweeping welfare reform on both state and national levels. Thrust of the governor’s message was dedication to the principal of spending money on people, not administration. Despite imperfections, he said, welfare meets a genuine and serious need for many less for­ tunate citizens. Results of the House study were released in mid-March -- substantiating some charges, underscoring federal impact on state problems and calling generally for a return to wel­ fare’s original pilosophical concept. Emerging legislation will con- by Jack Zimmerman centrate more attention on what Gov. McCall describes as un­ protected children, the aged and infirm. Welfare fraud, • ‘absconding" fathers and open- ended welfare budgets all will experience intensive legislative pressure. “The man on the street today completely mistrusts welfare activities,” declared Rep. Meeker. “In the process of erasing the errors leading to our present dilemma, we hope to reduce that mistrust by a process of restoration and en­ forcement. “With the exception of aid to the elderly, the handicapped and dependent children, we hope to restore public assistance to its role as temporary aid for those in emergency situations.” Joint Ways 4 Means Com­ mittee is just beginning hearings on the welfare budget. Results of the Touche-Ross study are due shortly. And welfare is in the spotlight. The exact extent of welfare fraud is still a matter for conjecture. Welfare’s budget is still up in the air. Some welfare legislation hasn’t even been introduced yet. Whatever the outcome, the glare of attention is bearing fruit. Rep. Meeker reports a reduction in the total number of March welfare checks from the month before and predicts a “lower-then-trended” drop in April. At the same time there was a reduction of 295 in the num­ ber of checks providing aid to dependent children — marking the first such decline in three years. “We don’t know if these re­ ductions are the results of efficiency or just plain‘heat’, said Meeker. “A lot of us would settle for either — as long as the job gets done.” TRAIN THE VETERAN ON-THE-JOB WITH Gl BILL OR MOTA AT THE END OF YOUR ROPE OVER AUTO INSURANCE CASCADE will help you keep your cool with its low cost, prime quality protection Take advantage of the Easy Pay Plan and personalized service Keep your cool with CASCADE!
