MEET AT DOVER
Four New Applications Con-
sidered From Kent COun-
ty, One Being Granted
BODY IN NEED OF FUNDS

The monthly meeting of the Del
aware Mothers Pension Commits
sion was held in the Kent Count 2
Court room. Eleven new applica-
lions were considered from New
Castle county and four from Kent
county, one being granted in Kent
county. Sussex county has eleven
applications on the waiting list
but no funds are available to take
care of such families. Of the
pensioned families, II were reviv-
ed; two were discontinued and
three pensioned cases renewed in
Kent county and one discontinued.
In Sussex county eight were re-
duced and one discontinued. Three
cases were held up for further in
vestigation. The commission de-
plored the lack of sufficient funds
to care for their long list of wait
ing mothers and children whose
needs are exaggerated by the lack
of employment for the mothers.
The children who receive State
pensions are the future citizens of
the State and should not be neg
lected as they should be the
