Public Welfare

"Public welfare in North Caro
lina helps people too young to
work, too old to work, or too
disabled to work." ? Dr. Ellen
Winston, Commissioner
Sev$n yews ?o X, widow
of a sharecropper, visited the
county department of pub! ii*
welfare. Mr. X, who died df lung
cancer, had not paid Social Se
curity, and the family was not
eligible for a Social Security
payment. There were three
school age children and no
means of support. There w*s no
work, available for the mother
in the rural community where
the family lived except seasonal
farm labor.

payment for needy dependent
children who have been depriv

became of the death, physical
or cental incapacity of one or
both parents. Mr*. X and har
children were eligible for such
? payment
The oldest child, Mfcy, was
able to finiah high school and
ranked fifth in her class. Duaiag
the summer months and during
holidays she worked in the local
country store Later she married
a substantial young business
man who was in partnership
with his brother. They now have
a young son.
the aecond child, Jane, was
valedictorian of her claas. With
some financial help from her
o i4*r sister, and the encourage
ment of the caseworker is the
county department of public
welfare, Jane secured a small
scholarship vrtiich enabled her
to tafaal business course. Upon
graduation she was able to get
a good job as a stenographer
and not only was self-supporting
but contributed to her mother' s
support and that q i her younger
brother.
The youngest child. Joe, is
in college, where he is majoring
now completing his fourth year
in education for a career as a
teacher, lie has part time work
which pays for his room and
board and during the summers
he has earned enough to pay for
his tuition at college.
Mrs. X, now that the children
are away from home, earn* mon
ey as a baby-sitter, and with
contributions from the two girls,
is no longer in need of assistance
from public welfare..
Because of aid to dependent
children, this family was able
to become self-sufficient. The
children were kept in school and
instead of becoming liabilities
to society, all are now self
supporting, taxpaying citizens.
For a $ew years they received
help from tax money; but for
many years they themselves will
be able to pay tapes many times
over what they received.
