RECORDS DAILY ACTIVITIES
OF BIRDS OF NORTH AND
SOUTH AMERICAN CON

Tomorrow morning, the Audit
bon Society will show four reels
of birds of the United States and
South America at the Monroe
Theater, 10 o'clock, through the
courtesy of John Carbonell, man
ager, and DR.. F. S. Carbonell.
The photography is said to be
beautifully taken in the natural,
primitive habitate of the birds,
and picture the multitude of
birds of this continent moving
about on flats feeding, resting,
taking off into the air, in flight, -
the complete daily activities of
the birds. 1t is indeed an inter
esting picture, Z. M. Moore. con-
servation agent in this county
who has secured the pictures for
local showing says.
Mr.. Moore has tried for some
time now to secure these films to
show how beautiful bird life
really is under a conservation
program, and he states that the
pictures will be free of charge.
1t is hoped that the bird life
along the Keys will be as much
appreciated as has that photo
graphed in the film, and that the
birds will be allowed TO increase
in abundance as much. Mr. Moore
said.

NEEDY CHILDREN
TO RECEIVE AID
FUNDS TO BE EXPENDED IN
DIFFERENT COUNTIES ON
POPULATION BASIS

JACKSONVILLE, June 23.-
(FNS) Funds to be expended for
Aid to Dependent Children will
be allocated to the various coun-
ties of the state on population
basis, according to the statement
by Clayton c. Codrington, State
Welfare Commissioner, in an adj
dress delivered at Pensacola this
week before the state meeting of
county commissioners.
The method of ALLEGATION win
be different from that employed
in administering Old Age Assist
ance and Aid to the Blind, where
funds are given on the basis Of
need and regardless of popula-
ton.
Codrington explained that with
but 100000 to spend during the
fiscal year in this public assist
ance category. it would be pos
sible to relieve only the most
needy cases.
In his address he said: Real
izing that monthly expenditure
of $4,000 will not allow every
dependent child in Florida to be
given aid. the money available
under this program will be al
located to the various counties Of
the state by the State Welfare
Board on the basis of population.
The Board. realizing that the
various counties. through their
commissioners, have at some
time in the past given mothers
pensions to the neediest cases
within their borders, proposes TO
use the county lists first for their
investigations by state staff in
accordance with the requirements
Of the national Social Security
Board In view Of the fact that
there is a limited appropriation.

fare Board that in considering
