OIney : NorbecIx
Group Opposes
Dole System

Holding their regular monthly
meeting at the home of Mr.. and
Mrs. Brooke Johns, the Olney :
Norbeck Citizens Protective Asso-
citation this past week went on
record as opposing the dole sys-
tenn. Feeling that it is better for
people to work, the organization
went on record as favoring some
type of gainful employment rather
than doing out in weekly or
monthly payments such amounts
that are only necessary for exist
ence.
With President Calvin Bready
in the chair, the meeting dis
cussed thoroughly the state road
marking system and it was
brought out that the State Roads
Commission had complied with
recent requests with one excep-
ton. The following committee
was appointed to work in collab-
GRAFTON with other units in pro-
noting the proposed Washington
to Olney bus line: Mrs. Clara
Mae Downey, Brockett Muir, Vim
cent Tutching, Brooke Johns and
Audrey Powell. The organization
meets monthly.
