| Inf ion nd
WHEREAS, A ruling from Wash
ington, d. c. has been received from
the State Office, certifying that, any
person not receiving relief from Ma!
1. 1885 to November l, 1885 is not
eligible for w. p. A. work relief and,
WHEREAS, We feel that this rul-
ing is not fair and is penalizing the
good men who Immediately last
March or April, 1885, when spring
work opened up on the farms and
elsewhere obtained a private job and
went off the Relief Rolls and made
his own living and provided for his
family until after the farm work was
fodder stacked, which was completed
from November Is to November 25,
1885 and now, under this ruling, he
is not eligible for w. p. A. work to
provide for his family during the
winter months while the relief client,
mer is again receiving the benefits.
Which creates an unsatisfactory feel
| ing to those who are actually trying
to be on the square and not try and
live from public funds.
THEREFORE. BE 1T RESOLVED,
That the Board of County Commits
sioners of Redwood County, Mime
sofa, kindly ask the Honorable Har-
ry l.. Hopkins, Federal Relief Ad-
ministrator and the Honorable Victor
Christgau, State w. p. A. Admins
traitor to waive said ruling and leave
the eligibility of who should receive
w. p. A. Work relief to the
w. P. A. Certifying Office of each re
spective county, in fairness to all,
who are in need of relief work.
