FRANKLIN COUNTY AND WELFARE WORK (Contributed) Franklin County . has received many benefit# ffrom the State and Federal Government in the past Biz months. We believe It will be of keen interest to everyone In the county to know how the three units of government, federal, state, and local have co-operative- 1 ly shared the responsibilities of meeting welfare and relief needs during these six months. Since January 15th the State Dept. of Welfare has paid for th? full time services of a certifying case worker. It has been her re sponsibility to co-ordinate the federal program with the local needs ? in other words, approve those eligible for W. P. A., C. C. C. Camp, and surplus commodi ties and refer applicants to the Rural Resettlement. At the same time the certifying case worker has serviced families of the Wel fare Dept. when that was neces sary. Since March 1st, the County has had a part time negro, eat* worker who has served In a slml liar capacity. The State Dept. al so made provisions for a steno " graphic assistant as the increased work in the field also Increased the work to be done in the office. It Is felt by many that the work accomplished by the three additional helpers has meant much to Franklin County and that they are practically indis pensable If a high standard of welfare work is to be continued. We have been Informed by the N. C. Commissioner of Welfare, Mrs. W. H. Bost, that funds to pay these workers will be exhaust ed July 1, 1936. Therefore. , in order that the work be continued and the Welfare Dept. remain standard. It is requested that the cquntles will make provisions In the budget to keep these workers in the Welfare Dept. for the year 193C-37. Since January 1936 each county in the state has had one or more additional workers who were paid by the State Dept. and this request is being made of all the 100 counties. ii seems mat wenare wore is at the Cross Roads ? either we shall advance rapidly or there will be a decided set back In our progress. Welfare activities have reached such proportions in the past few years and months that one individual can hardly do It. Also, It Is more expensive. How ever. the sfate and federal govern ments are offering certain re sources to the local governments If the local units feel they can take advantage of them. These resources are: the W. P. A., C. C. C. Camp, Rural Resettlement, and surplus food commodities. We are not able to eatimate in dollars and cents exactly what has come Into Franklin County through wages paid W. P. A. workers and families of boys In C. C. C. Camp or to those farming with the Rural Resettlement. However one wonders what we would do without them right now. We've been able t<> estimate the value in dollars and cents of the commodtles which have been re ceived. The following figures will give the information: December 1935, clothing 8228. 61. January 1936, food and cloth ing 9689.91. February 1936, food and cloth ing 8896.35. March 1936, food and clothing 81136.41. April 1936, food and clothing 8891.27. Hay 1936, food and clothing 81094.29. June 1936, (to be received the 16th). All Total, 84986.84. The local dept. has received In salaried and mileage allowance and office equipment a total of 81298.13 which makes a combin ed total of 86,288.97 which has Been given to Franklin County during the past six months. Is Franklin County to continue to receive the benefits of surplus food comodltles and clothes, to give its unemployed work with W. P. A., to send our young boys who are out of work to C. C. C. Camp? If so, the present Welfare Department must be kept stand ard.

The more Important ruioa of the road as suggested by Ford dealers to the general public, are as follows: Speed ? Keep the pace of other carB when in traffic. On the open road It should be governed by state law or road conditions. Right of way ? Don't contest right of way. It often ends in the hospital. Weaving in traffic ? Always | keep in one lane of traffic. Before 'changing lanes always use rear view mirror to see what is be hind you, then signal with arm. Left turns ? Keep In center lane when preparing to turn left at an Intersection, unless local ordin ance prohibits. Right turns ? Get In close to the curb when you wish to make a right turn. Through traffic can I follow the outer lane, and the middle lane If there are three. Leaving curb ? Always look back and see if any car Is ap proaching, then signal your in-'! tent ion before pulling away from! | curb. Stop and go? Always watch for stop signs. It Is as dangerous for you as for the other driver to run through a red light. Road signs ? Always read them | their shape In most states tells you the kind of Information they contain. Under uniform traffic code there are four important ' shapes you should remember. Octagonal sign Indicates a stop. You can distinguish its shape long before you can read it. Circular sign always indicates a railway. Have your car under control when you see a circular sign. Double bars on It Indicate two crossings close together. Diamond signal are always used as a warning of a curve or TJther change In the ; road. They must be read. Never, pass one without reading It.1 Square signs are for instruction i ? such as "School" ? or to Indi cate road^lirections, intersections, < etc. Never pass on turns. It Is not ; only very hazardous but illegal in many states. Never pass on a hill. This is an other common cause of accidents ; 1 as you are liable to meet someone coming over the top. Always signal when you start to pass a car. Always hold your pace when being passed, or give way to let a passing car get in the clear.
