Illinois December relief funds near record high
Illinois relief needs for December reach 13.48 million with 97 percent from federal money. The emergency relief commission asks Washington for 12.06 million to cover shortfalls while November cuts by the Federal Emergency Relief Administration are noted. Only minimal state and local funds remain to back next month’s needs as work relief limits are held steady. The piece also covers tax, military and local crime notes including chicken theft concerns, AAA hog contracts, drownings on the Mississippi, the Galena Gazette centennial, a mine explosion near Athens, and Illinois Legion decisions on the 1935 state convention.
