FIRST WELFARE
WORKERS MEET
AT WAYNESV1LLE
(Continued from page 1)
the creation of an enlightened Gen
eral Assembly that would require
each of the 100 counties of the state
to have a county hospital where
medical services would be in reach of
everyone for as it is hospital service
is beyond the reach of all except the
charity class and the rich.—Thus
leaving the person with a limited in
come in many instances out of reach
of hospital service.
Dr. Sam’s talk was followed by an
open discussion at which Dr. Able
and Dr. McCracken told of the new
county hospital in Haywood county
just being completed. The Duke
Foundation gave $10,000 to the con
struction of this hospital and is go
ing to give $1 per day for every
free bed in the hospital.
Miss Mary Frances Camp, Director
of County Organizations of the State
Board of Charities and Public Wel
fare was present and gave some in
teresting facts concerning the eco
nomnical value of welfare work. She
pointed out that the value of the en
forcement of the school law was
alone worth the cash of the wel
fare work. In each of the fifty
seven counties having organized
welfare work the saving of county
fund by investigations concering re
lief are having the county poor funds
administered in a business like man
ner, have in nearly every instance
paid for the work not to consider the
untold value of the other duties that
the welfare worker performs. Miss
Camp stated that it was impossible
for the County Commissioners to in
vestigate the needs of relief and fol
low up the work without the aid of
the welfare' worker. She gave an
illustration of one county in the state
that had changed its county home
into a county hospital—and by hav
ing the county prison camp qear, the
cook at the hospital, as well as the
orderly were both serving time on ]
the gang, while a number of the
other prisoners work in the hospital
garden. The cash to run this hos
pital was just half that of the cash
of running the old county home.
Showing what can be accomplished
by better planing and management. 1
Mr. N. E. Wright, County Super- |

er ’ job was almost more than one
person could do, much less trying
to do both, and that it wold be a
great step forward if the state would
require every county to put on the
welfare worker. By the co-operation
of the Parent-Teachers Association
and Mr. Wright’s untiring efforts,
much progress along welfare work

Much Marble Under
ASH Highway, Claim
A highway made of marble is the
Appalachian Scenic Highway—not
unlike a dance floor, says H. J.
Bryson, state , geologist.
The best waste material is used
for terrazo floors. Cherokee county
has more marble than any. other
county in the State. The depqsits
enter the*State from Fannin county
Georgia, and extend along the Notla
river to Murphy and along the Valley
river to Topton.
There are abo deposits of this
same type of marble in the neighbor
hood of Peachtree and Brasstown.
The color varies from a blue-gray*
more or less motled, to almost pure
white. —’

It is hoped that as the annual meet

report every county represented.
