THURSDAY, MAY 27. HST- THE FRANKLIN FfttSS AND TIIS HIGHLANDS MAC0N1AN PACK SEVEN Provisions of Old Age and Dependent Children Ac t State Board O u 1 1 i n e s Securing Aid RALEIGH, May 26. Methods of applying for relief under the Old Age" Assistance and Aid to Depen dent Children Act adopted by the ioi7: .ypnprnl assembly of North Carolina may hot be clearly out lined in the minds of many persons who may wish . to secure the aid made possible through passage of the legislation, which goes into ef fect on July 1. . The procedure is simple. Applica tions must be made to county de partments of welfare in the county ,.rWli tW annlicant resides and must be preceded by interview with department workers. They must be in writing; prepared in duplicate (two copies), and they must be sworn to by the applicant. The services of . a notary public or of some authorized county official may be utilized for the latter purpose. In the event applicants are un able to write, or caanot, for any . r:n ViAir amilira- otner reason, u -tions, they may call upon officials or employes of the county welfare departments, who are required by law to prepare applications for those who are unable to do so for tVipmsfl ves. ' All applications must contain a statement of the amount of prop erty, if any, both real and personal, in which applicants may have an interest, and of all income appli cants may have at the time of the filing of the applications. Such ad ditional information as the state board and individual administering agencies may require also must be furnished. t Following the filing of an apph- i n imrocticration rf the aD- tdllUU, " . wo - - plLcant will be made by the local department, in order to ascertain all facts in each case. This is a routine procedure, designed to see that justice is accorded all appli cants, and at the same time to prevent the possibility of fraud. The investigations, are not intended to cause offense. The investigations will be made by employes of the local depart ments, and the results will deter mine the amount of assistance the applicant is entitled to receive, should the application receive final approval. The amounts applicants may re ceive will range as high as $30 per month for old age assistance. In the case of children, there is a maximum of $18 per month for the first child, with each additional child of the same family receiving not more than $12 per month. The maxirmim for children's aid for a single family is $54 per month, ex cept in particular cases of merit where the need is found to - be greater. Decisions of this character will be made by the state board, which will-receive recommendations from the local . departments. Following the investigations, ap plicants are to be promptly notified by local boards as to whether their applications have been approved or rejected, in the event of an un favorable report, the applicant has the right of appeal from the de cisions of the local departments to the state board of Allotments and Appeal. None of the payments made through the Social .Security pro gram, according to the law, shall be subject fo execution, levy, at tachment, garnishment, or other legal processes, nor to the opera tion of Jajvvbarlcruptcy or insol veneytewTNeither shall .any of the funds be transferable or assignable in any manner. These safeguards were embodied in the Act for the" protection of re cipients of assistance, but there are other provisions which tend to pro tect the county and the state from would-be fraudulent persons. The Act, in that respect, reads as follows . "Whoever knowingly obtains, or attempts to obtain, or aids or abets any person to obtain by means of willfully false statements or repre sentation or by impersonation, or other fraudulent device, assistance to which he is not entitled, -or as sistance greater than that to which he is justly entitled, shall be guilty of a misdemeanor, and, upon con vict'on thereof, shall be. fined or imprisoned, or both, at the dis cretion of the court." ; ; Timely Farm Questions Answered at State College Q. How long after shearing should I wait before dipping my sheep? A. It is best to wait until all cuts made at shearing have . healed be fore dipping. This usually takes from 10 days to two weeks. One dipping usually is sufficient, but if any ticks, lice or mites are present, a second dipping should be made 10 days later to destroy any para sites that have hatched since the first dipping. The treatment should be given in the morning of a warm, sunny day so that the flock may dry thoroughly before night... Q. Is it too early to turn my cattle, into lespedeza? A. The chief value of lespedeza for grazing is that it furnishes good pasturage during the hot sum mer and fall months when other pasture grasses are dormant. For this reason the crop should not be grazed before June 1 for the Ko rean variety or July 1 for the other varieties. The cattle should be taken off the fields about Oc tober 1. Where the common variety has been seeded the animals may be left on the field until November 1, as this variety will reseed itself when grazed down to one inch in height. Q. Should wet mash be fed to the poultry flock at this season of the year? , A. Many, raisers make a practice of feeding wet mash to layers as soon as they start breaking in production in the spring. Prior to this, however, the flock should be carefully culled and all birds re moved that have definitely gone out of production. The mash should be fed in the early afternoon and only in such quantity as the birds will clean up in from 15 to 20 minutes. After feeding, the troughs should be cleaneji and allowed to set in the sun as moulds grow rapidly in warm weather. The daily feeding of wet mash should pro long the period of lay. 4-H Girls Offered Medals, Scholarships For the 15th consecutive year the quest for the ideal 4-H home girl is being conducted through the Girls Record Contest by club lead ers of the nation.
