PENSIONS FOR
NEEDY MOTHERS
TO BE EASIER
Present System of Pauperizati0n
Will Be Eliminated Un-
~ der New Act
WILL INCREASE RELIEF
Minor Dependent Children to Be
Assured-Burden of Proof
Is Shifted

A mothers pension act which will
throw the burden of poor and respons-
ibility upon the counties instead of
upon the INDECENT mothers, where it
now rests, has been prepared by
Assistant Attorney General Cox,
with some suggestions from Miss
Aldyth Ward. secretary of the state
welfare commission, and it will be in
troduced in the 18th general assem-
bly,, where it is expected to pass
without any real opposition.
The new bill will provide pension
of $25 per month for each minor
child and SIS per month to the moth
err The age up to which a child may
'Ue considered a dependent minor is
extended from II to 16 years, and it
is provided that when the youngest
minor child has passed the age of Is
the mother, if still unable to care for
herself, may be still allowed $25 per
month for her own support.
At present the administration of the
mothers pension act rests entirely in
the discretion of the county Judge and
the. board of, county commissioners.
These officials; generally have prided
themselves in, denying rather than
granting pensions, 1t is alleged. and
the contention Is made that injustice
has been done in number Of worthy
cases No matter how friendly dis.
posed the county Judge and commits.
sioners may be, there Is SO much red
tape in. connection with the present
act that the average self.respecting
mother does not care to be placed ~
the light of pauper and possibly
fraudulent claimant for public char
ity.
The new bill will require the county
commission and the county, judge to
provide pensions in every worthy
case presented to their notice, and II
a pension Is refused the mother may
appeal direct to higher authority:
Pending the decision of. the appeal
the county will be required to pay
the pension petitioned for. and in ev'
cry instance the burden of poor will
rest upon the county.
Assistant Attorney General Cox
has handled a number of appeals
which have come through General
Langer's office, and he Is thoroughly
familiar with the inadeQuacies OF the
present law, and the injusttces Of its
operation. ,.i. . ;,-E~ ~. ~ So
