SOCIAL SECURITY
BOARD ACTS ON
PAYROLL ISSUE
MISUSE OF PUBLIC FUNDS IN
OKLAHOMA WERE REVEAL
ED IN REPORT TO DEPART
MENT

JACKSONVILLE. Fla. March
II FNSl.-The zeal shown By
the Florida State Welfare Board
IN complying with the require
ments of the, federal Social Sc
curity Act was well justified,
Clayton c Codrington, state well
fare commissioner, stated today,
citing the action of the Social Sc
curity Board at Washington in
dropping Oklahoma from the fed
eral Old Age Assistance payroll.
Brief dispatch from the nation
al capital stated that the action
was taken because of the flag
rant misuse of public funds" in
administration of the states pub
lie assistance plan. The decision
followed reports of its investiga-
tors to the Board that Oklahoma
pension checks had been issued to
dead men and that an incomplete
audit showed that S685. 900 had
been paid out irregularly.
The Social Security Board,
through its publicity department,
had previously made public a let
term from its chairman. Arthur J.
Altmeyer. to Gov. MarIandS of
Oklahoma, and John Eddelman,
chairman of the Oklahoma Public
Welfare Commission. The fol-
lowing extract from this letter
indicated the close supervision
exercised by the Social Security
Board over state boards and its
rigid inSistence upon their COM
pliance with the federal act:
Grants have been made with
out the applications of a uniform
policy as to the determination of
need. Arbitrary changes have
been made in grants without re-
gard to individual need Owing
to the states failure to carry out
its regulations to review the cases
of those receiving assistance. per-
sons who have become ineligible
after the grant was made con-
tinue on the assistance rolls The
state and county records purport-
ing to establish eligibility of re-
cipients are not accurate and en-
tries made in such are clearly at
variance with actual facts in a
substantial number of cases"
Commenting on Oklahoma'S
predicament. Commissioner Cod
rington said: "In Florida. the
State Welfare Board is carrying
out both the letter and spirit of
its agreement with the Social Sc
curity Board. based on the social
security act. Il feels that any adj
ditional expense incurred, either
in the thorough investigation of
applications or in the review of
the cases of those receiving assist
ance. Is small compared to the
loss which the state would sus-
tain if deprived of matching fed
eral funds.
