mission, approximately 6.4
per cent of register ap
plicants is handicapped. In
the first 10 months of fiscal
year 1982, which ended July
31, state Job Service offices
placed 4,577 handicapped
individuals in job. During
the first 10 months the
Edenton Office registered
111 handicapped - applicants
and placed 32 handicapped
individuals in jobs.
“We believe that no
worker is handicapped if he
is placed in the proper job,”
Mrs. Bond says. “It is our
job to fit the person into a
job where, by focusing on
abilities rather than
disabilities, the handicap
does not interfere with job
performance.
“Employment is not
based on charity or sym
pathy, but is the result of
good business judgement.
Handicapped workers are
good workers,” Bond said.
Each Job Service office in
North Carolina has at least
one individual qualified to
provide services such as job
search assistance, coun
seling and training referral
to the handicapped.

Block Commended For Aid To Farmers
WASHINGTON —Senator
Jesse Helms commended
Secretary of Agriculture
John R. Block for his an
nouncement of the 1983 feed
grain program and ad
ditional funds for on-farm
storage.
“Secretary Block’s an
nouncement of a 10 per cent
paid diversion and a 10 per
cent acreage reduction is
excellent news for the
American farmer,” said
Helms, Chairman of the
Senate Agriculture Com
mittee. Congress had
required that a paid
diversion of at least 5 per
cent be implemented for
1983.
“This strong action by the
Secretary demonstrates his
effective use of the farm
program tools provided by
Congress in the 1981 farm
bill, which I introduced and
supported. Despite difficult
economic circumstances,
this legislation has been
effective in aiding the
American farmer.”
“lam also pleased with the
allocation of an additioal S6O
million for the farm storage
facility loan program. These
are short-run actions which
will boost the farm economy
and help farm prices,”
Helms said.
“The public should note
that these actions today will
ultimately provide savings
to the taxpayer through
reduced Government
spending on surplus com
modities in the future,”
Helms said.

“I must caution, however,
that Government production
controls is not the long-term
solution to problems in the
grain sector of economy. We
cannot indefinitely reduce
U.S. production in the face
of expanded plantings in

have been concerned that a

would allow other countries
