Montgomery Co. Council
Meets With Welfare Board

In response to an invitation
from the Montgomery County Well
fare Board, all members of the
Montg cry County Council,
County Manager Irving G. Nc
Nayr and Assistant Manager
Plummer Shearin, attended the
February meeting of the Welfare
Board. The invitation had been ex-
tended to The new County Council
to help them become familiar with
the functions and operation of the
local welfare office.
The County Welfare Board, in
addition to its regular functions as
a part of the State Welfare Sys-
tenn, has been, for the past four
years, performing local welfare
functions under responsibility del
egated to it by the local govern
ment. These local functions are be-
ing studied by both the Welfare
Board and the County Council for
improvement of these services.
William E. Roger, Director of
the Welfare Board, reported that
a shortage of welfare funds has
been threatened because of an in
crease in case load from 494 cases
in July, 1948, to 536 in December,
1913. However, in January, the
case-load increase leveled off and
if there is no further increase,
there will probably be enough
funds to carry the program
through the remainder of the fiscal
year.
December, 1948, and January,
1949, case load figures were: Old
Age Assistance, 226 for both
months; Aid to Dependent Chill
dren, n for both months; General
Montgomery County sentinel. [volume] (Rockville, Md.) 1855-1974, 1949-02-24

Public Assistance, 60 and 62 cases;
Assistance to the Needy Blind, 7
and 8 cases; Foster Home Care,
166 and 165 cases; total cases, 536
for December and 538 for January.
Total expenditures increased
slightly, from $22, 426 in December,
to $22,588 in January. Expendi-
lures for Old Age Assistance and
Foster Home Care declined, while
those for Aid to Dependent Chill
dren, General Public Assistance,
and Assistance to the Needy Blind,
increased. Comparative expendi-
lures for December and January
were: Old Age Assistance, 1880
and 1888; for Aid to Dependent
Children, $6,176 and $6,217; for
General Public Assistance, 81, 763
and $1,000; for Assistance to the
Needy Blind, $239 and 1888; and
for foster Home Care, 1886 and
S6,844.

Our Human Relationships
By G. H. GRAHAM
(The fifth of q series)
OUR READING HABITS

Many of the older generation
can recall how few books they
found in their homes, and libraries
were unheard of. If perchance they
found a book that was interesting,
the book would be read again and
again. q read one book six times.)
Today we have an abundance Of
material and only need to be
guided to make wise choices. Per-
haps it is mainly in having the
right interests. Then we will enjoy
the right reading material. If
we have many good interests
we have the foundation for
happy and useful life. If you do
not have interests you are not
very likely to be Of interest to
another. Most interests are
aroused and satisfied through read
ing. Here is where the public Ii
brary is the great ally Of the home
and the school. But each as he
learns to read should have his book
shelf and some books Of his very
own, books that he will treasure
as real companions. Children who
have had access TO good books in

time in seventeen years, tragedy
has struck the home of Mr.. and
Mrs. J. S. Franklin. They recently

other children living.

Want-Ad, Romance, Marriage

Woodburn, Ore.-After reading
an advertisement in a Czech lang
uage newspaper, John Foltyn, 81
year-old mechanic, began writing
to Reneta Leblova, of Prague,
Czechoslovakia. Their correspon-
dence developed into romance and
their romance into a proposal of
marriage by John. He did not see
Renata until she arrived here on
December IA, after a 5,500-mile
plane trip from her homeland.
While Foltyn speaks little Czech,
his parents, who came from Czech
oslovakia eleven years ago help the
couple over the language-rough
spots.

bright star of hope that had
arisen in the heavens above the
ancient land of Israel, and of the
future that was fraught with

countries, and factually reigns in
the land. With every justifiable
confidence we all can look for

peace treaties will follow, and
the people and government of
Israel will be able to devote their
energies and abilities in full to
the peaceful development of the

The coming year will call for
great effort, for we all have
learned that it is vastly more

peace than to wage a successful
