BALTIMORE. Dec. 20 R.--

system Of registering births and

partment said yesterday.
Physicians. hospitals and
others who formerly sent birth

Department officials said the
new system. In which multicopy
forms are used, will provide
faster and more efficient Serv-
lice. DR.. A. w. Hedrich. chief
of the departments division Of
vital records and statistics, said
lthe new method will save coun-
tiles more than $4,000 q year.
Registrars are paid o small fee.
The new forms do most Of
the work previously performed
by registrars. DR.. Hedrich said.
For example. when the ply
sician signs q death certificate
q burial permit is automatically
created. This obviates the
need Of Q special trip to the
local registrar for the permit. "
he said.
When the population was
primarily rural and most Of the
births and deaths occurred at
home. DR.. Hedrich said, regis.
trars were needed In each elec-
ton district because registra-
ton was very incomplete.
The few other services per-
formed by the local registrars
such as issuance Of disinter-
ment permits and certificate
forms. viii be carried out by
county health departments.
DR.. Perry r. Prather. director
OF the health department. said

Hopes to Broaden
Welfare Services

The Montgomery County
Welfare Board has approved
an extension of its welfare serv-
ices to families of employable
persons who are temporarily
unemployed.
William E. Roger, the
county's welfare director, today
said the new program, which
would cost the county UP tc
$4,000 on a matching fund
basis, will be proposed in the
Welfare Departments budget
request for 1859.
The special welfare service
which has been given at various
times in IL Maryland counties
and Baltimore City, is titled
general public assistance to
employables."
A recent county study cover
ing SO families indicated that
private welfare and charity
agencies are unable to give ade-
quate assistance to able
bodied workers who become I'M
employed during off-seasons or
other periods.
