H. Potts, superintendent of the Macon County Department of Public welfare. "Under the new policy", Mrs. Potts said, "older children in ; families receiving public assis tance must be able to show evidence that they have made an effort to find employment to help pay their way in the home. "If these children, 18 years of age and older, or between 16 and 18 if not in school, are unemployed they must be reg I istered with the State Employ- ' i ment service as evidence of their efforts to secure employ ment." Mrs. Potts pointed out that the only exception which would be made in this policy would be when the home situation of the child is such that his serv ices there, are essential because of the incapacity of the parent. "As the case workers of the county department of public welfare make their periodic visits, they will review the em ployment status of all children in this age group. If such chil- j ; dren are unemployed and can- ! no,t furnish evidence of having J ' made an effort to secure em- I ployment, the parent cannot be determined to be in need", Mrs. j 1 Potts said.

Social Security Checks Sent To 191 Macon Folk Checks for insurance pay ments under federal social se curity went to 191 aged persons, children, and their widowed mothers in Macon county in December, 1951. In releasing these figures this week, Glenn H. Pittenger, manager of the Asheville Social Security office, also said that these monthly payments under the old-age and survivors insur ance program amounted to $4, 677 in this county. "Without these payments earned by work ers under this contributory system, the ability of many people to pay for necessities would have been drastically cur tailed or entirely ended", he said. More than one-third of all people over 65 in the United States who could not count on income from work for support, were getting social security in surance benefits.
