Q Perquimans To Receive Less State Funds Some counties will receive more state funds for the next fiscal year wile others will receive less in a move to better equalize the local tax burden to support the public assistance programs and the local ad ministration of all social ser vices programs. The State Board ot social. services, at its meeting ou March 8, adopted a new formul; for distribution of the $4,660,i appropriated by this pa session of the uener Assemblv for this purpose f fiscal vear 1972-73. i Under the new puni assistance equalizing formula 63 counties will receive fundi and all 100 counties will receivf a share of the aid to county administration equalizing funds. I Based on the new formula, 4S counties will receive more combined state equalizing fundi while the other 55 will receive less, however, the set amount of funds to be distributed in fiscal year 1972-73 are higher than will be distributed this fiscal year ($4,660,000 compared to $4,130,134). The old formula was based on four factors: the average public assistance money payment yoi , capita, the number of public; assistance recipients per 100 pupulation, the sales and use tax per capita, and tne aojusn individual income per capn The new formula, which wi apply basically to both public assistance and administration funds, is based on a ratio bet ween the county's cost for the programs and tne appraised value of property at 100 per cent of vaulation. Clifton M. Craig, Com missioner of social services, beHtves the new formula is much simpler than the old and that it will be a more equitable system. He stated that it brings a closer relationship between ie counties' costs and their bility to pay and will better equalize the growing local tax burden in support of these programs. Estimated total statewide expeditures for the current 1971 72 fiscal year for public assistance payments are $131.8 million, ana tms is esuinaieu u Increase to $146.1 million for 972-73. .otal county estimated ex penditures for administration of all social services programs for 1971-72 are $25.4 million and it is estimated this will increase to $28 million for 1972-73. .Commissioner Craig stated that these increases in costs are ing caused by a continuing crease in both the number of iblic assistance recipients and the average monthly payments which thev are receiving. The (caseload in the aid to the families with dependent children program has been increasing drastically since the latter part of 1969. Fiscal year 1967-68;had 106,727 persons receiving assistance in this category with an average monthly payment of $25.45 per person. In January of this year, there were 167,049 with an average monthly payment of $32.37 per person. The State Board of Social Services, aware of the in creasing financial burden on the Certainly Lasso can be used on both corn and soybeans. ill!!! Thaf s what you xpct from your herbicide. tummi Fno:.i vcua iocx USS AGRI-CHEMICUS DIALER counties with their limited tax revenue, has for the past four sessions of the General Assembly requested additional state funds for aid to county administration of social ser vices programs. Each session has denied these increases. For Perquimans the 1971-72 estimate was 23,743, the 1972-73 estimate was 17,200, so Perquimans will receive 6,543 less. The seventh, eighth, and ninth grades of Chowan Academy went to Washington, D.C., on March 23 and 24 and enjoyed it very much. We left Chowan Academy at 6:00 a.m. ' and arrived In Washington at 10:45. We ate lunch in front of the National Gallery of Art and then toured the gallery which was full of interesting old and new paintings. Next we visited the Library of Congress which has 1 copies of almost every book printed In the United States plus a very valuable collection of old books and historical documents. We then saw the United States Supreme Court in session and heard a portion of argument presented before the court All 4 nina hiaHran won nrMMIt at thfl session. In this building we had to check in our coats, hats, packages, and cameras. Just before we were allowed to go in to view the court a policewoman checked all the girls' purses. One of the highlights of our trip was our visit to the Capitol. There we saw the House of Representatives in session and some of us were lucky enough to see Sam Ervin speak before the Senate. Our next stop was the National Archives where we saw originals of the Declaration of Independence and the Con stitution of the United States with its Bill of Rights. Joseph Hewea, of Edenton was pictured in one of the murals in this building. Among the things we saw on our hour and half tour of the Smithsonian Institute Were: Uncle Sam talking, the Hope diamond, the Wright plane, and old cars. It was exciting running up the hill to the Washington Monument and then riding up the Monument on the elevator. At the top you could see the Capitol, the White House. We also saw the Turkish Am bassador leaving Washington. He was given a twenty-one gun salute. It was most impressive to see the eight cent stamps and one dollar bills being made in the Bureau of Engraving. We ate dinner at the Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts, which was named for President Kennedy. We then toured ther .f building. Several of us stayed to ; t;. hear the National Symphony In Concert Hall with guest pianist, Bruno Leonardo Gelber, under director Antal Doratl. The others went to the Wax Museum and saw many wax figures among which were Mrs. Ken nedy and her two children, Caroline and John. The next morning we met Representative Walter B. Jones in the Agricultural Committee Room In the Longworth Building. He arranged for us to attend a committee hearing on , "United States Government Information Policies and Practices--", in the Rayburn Building. " : The most impressive buildlnSr; we saw was tne National Cathedral and we even got to hear the organ in the main chapel. The church was started in 1907 and will be finished in 1981." ' We rode by the Jefferson Memorial and stopped and went in the Lincoln Memorial. - , , At Arlington Cemetery we saw the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier and the change of the guard. We then walked down to see John F. Kennedy's grave. We also saw Robert Kennedy's grave and the Curtis Lee Mansion. On our way home we saw the Pentagon and we saw the 5:00 o'clock traffic coming from the T.V. j Pentagon! " We arrived at Chowajr? Academy at 9:30. The trip was ' enjoyed by all. We also would : like to thank the chaperones and teachers, for their help In preparing for this great trip.
