Shea Is Surprised
At Extent of Cheating

the basis of the small sampling
Only after the 280 cases are
analyzed can a scientific esti-
mate of cheating or the lack of
cheating on welfare rolls be
hazarded.
He characterized the ADO

Welfare officials believe it is
too early to assess this decline
in either category. But it is
possible that the attention
focused on welfare by the Byrd
Senate Subcommittee may be
related to the decrease, they
acknowledge.
Mr.. Shea also warned that
the ADO case cutback was not
a clear tax savings of $2,275
monthly.
"Our investigation has not
been easy, neither has it been
inexpensive" he noted. Each
closed case demanded about Is

disappointment as a job appli-
cant. No one in the building has
been fired recently.
The building was not evacu-
ated after the threats. Welfare
officials then appealed to the
District Commissioners for di-
rection after discovering the
city had no policy on what
workers should do in a bomb
threat crisis-stay in the build

The Commissioners, in exec

arrival was no shock because
welfare applicants understand
that workers may visit them at
any time.
OF the II cases closed, 10
cases, or SO per cent, were dis
qualified because men were
found living with the family.
ADO grants are available for
children whose fathers are
dead, incapacitated or absent
from the home. District Off
cials have interpreted the law
to- mean that a man, in the
home is responsible for the
children whether or not he is
the father.
In one case, investigators
found man in the home. He
gave his name. He told them
he lived some place else. They
left, checked Immediately on
the address he'd given them and
we're told that he was not

family address. She said she
was subletting from him. In
vestigators found only two bed
rooms for the children
and one for the adults. They
concluded he qualified as a
guardian.
Investigators found aliases
were used by men apparently
seeking to escape notice in the
family home so the welfare
checks would keep coming.
One man was traced through
a rental agreement which
listed the lessees as Mr.. and
Mrs. This man, believed by
welfare workers to have de-
serted his wife, was working.
He gave his boss his address
the same as his wife's. The
man paid for utilities for the
home in his name, too. This
triple proof of his presence con-
vinced investigators. ,...-,...-.
In two cases, fathers in
families drawing aid were en-
ployed. They had been in
capacitated, so their children
ana wives had qualified for
grants. But the Welfare De-
partment had not been aware
of the mems new jobs.
Another father, too i'll to

Foirfox Teachers Ask
Aid in Roce Bar Fight

The Fairfax Education As
sociation is seeking support of
other teachers groups in its
campaign to remove the word

requirements without incurring
an open break with the Vir-
ginia Education Association.
The Arlington Teachers As
sociation was expelled from the
YEA last year for admitting
Negroes.
Letters have gone out from
the Fairfax unit to is districts
of the YEA asking permission
to send speakers to explain the
Fairfax groups position. The
decision to use speakers was
made after q study group of
the State association decided to
oppose local option, according
to Executive Secretary Paul
Peter.
The Fairfax association hopes
its speakers viii sway the 1900
delegates who win attend the
three-day State convention Of
the YEA beginning October 81
in Richmond.
But only district H, covering
Fairfax and Arlington Counties
and Alexandria, has invited a

of their local affiliates, he said,

Arlington attorney Charles S.

The land was taken by the
State on october l, 1861, and
the question of compensation
has bten in the courts ever

higher price because the land,

to be built on a prime site. The

Arlington Circuit Court
Judge william D. Medley re-

Shain's request to use plans
for a hotel as evidence because
the plans weresnot in existence

State officials said the case
was important because other
property owners might use the
precedent if Washington values
were used as a yardstick for
RoSslyn values. Several other
court cases are pending for
land taken for Route 66.
Mr.. McShain's property was

proacheS to the Theodore
