The per capita was $500 while the
average earnings of those employed
was 1851. 1t was also stated that
opportunities of employment had
been offered to a number of those
who formerly worked in Cambridge
but they refused to move to other
parts of the state. 1t was hoped, it
was said that employment will be
found for many of the blind in pri-
vatc industry.
