Gallia County to shift direct relief crews under townships
Gallia County will transfer supervision of about 125 relief workers from the county engineer to township trustees effective Sept. 15.

Dissenters call it a political move to remove supervisor Boster from the payroll and warn of fragmented foremen across townships.
