Governor Seeks Temporary Welfare Plan to Avoid Layoffs
Charleston Gov Hulett Smith urged the Board of Public Works to approve a three month spending schedule starting July 1 to run the Welfare Department without layoffs. The plan preserves about 2100 positions through September while operations are re studied and ensures federal matching funds and merit increases where earned. The board indicated support but did not act yet as details are finalized.
