Relief Demand Still Growing in Athens County Report
Relief load in Athens County continued rising through April according to county relief director Clarence E. Green. April saw 38 direct relief cases involving 2,489 people, 170 cases and 689 people more than March. Green criticized the five percent administrative cost cap as unjust and noted 187 applications were carried over into May. He cited limited staff, with 345 of 532 applicants visited and 215 approved while 130 were rejected. He linked April’s rise to reduced WPA quotas amid mine closures, and said about 400 more people could be WPA-eligible if quotas rose. WPA distributed 4,656 cans of beef and other staples plus clothing and linens.
