Since Welfare pays everything
above the first dollar, she and
the department would each
pay about half of her monthly
premium.
II think it's so unfair to
take my insurance away" Mrs.
Jewell said. "I'd be glad to keep
on paying the full amount If
I could have the policy II
I go off assistance.
ANY number of times I've
been tempted to cash it in, but
I've held out, even when I've
been in dire straits.
II could never get another
policy now. Nobody would give
me cents worth.
"And even If I could, I'm
so much older I couldn't af-
ford the high premiums. I'm
just frantic about the future.
LAS far as relief goes, I real
ize If Nm cut off it will put
me in a very bad position.
But I can't resign myself to
feel any other way about sign
ing over the insurance"
On Relief Five Years
Mrs. Jewell has been on as
sistance five years. She receives
Sis a month for board and
some nursing care.
Her husband has been sick
and cannot support her, but
she believes he'll be a bread
winner again in a year. Then
eligibility for assistance would
end.
Out of the policy, welfare
would pay Mrs. JEWELS burial
expenees up to $500, even If
she were no longer on assist
ance when she died. But the
department pays for burial Of
all recipients in any case.
Mrs. JEWELS policy is small.
More important is what 1t rep
resents-an attempt to build up |
a small geacy. She sees this
swept away.
The new regulation appears
to deepen dependency and hurt

recipients could count on as
