Communication from the county
clerk in regard to blind aid read and
referred to committee on Miscellaneous
business
Gentlemen:-Thel legislature Of 1919
amended the law relating to aid to
blind persons so that the county board
may now allow $4,000 instead of $3.50
per year to blind persons who have an
income of less than $4,000 year.
In most cases these poor unfor-
tunates need all the aid they can get
and in some cases are kept out of the
county house by this small pension.
/ therefore recommend that the
county board allow to each such blind
person for the ensuing year the sum
of $500 payable quarterly, and that
oil t.a oil M Nf
each being the additional amount to
which they were really entitled for
1919 and that the additional $50 be
included in their check for January
LIST, 1921.
Those blind persons whose income
amounts to more than $50 and less
than $3.50 per year are entitled to $1OO
per year aid.
| would therefore recommend that
the committee to whom this communi-
cation is referred, investigate the sta
tus of those now receiving aid to de-
termine whether they are entitled to
800 or 5000 per year.
The following persons received aio
under this law the past year: Joseph
Torgerson, Viroqua; Cecilia Favor
Viroqua; George North, Liberty; Mar.
tin T. Anderson, Viroqua; Henry Wal.
lace, Ontario; Rebecca Primmer, Gin.
