Needy May Now Be Eligible After Relative-Liability Law Repeal
County welfare director William C. Pugh said the legislature repealed the relative responsibility law effective May 1. This ends denials or reductions of aid for many needy persons and could allow previously eligible individuals to receive assistance. About 18 000 state cases were affected by the repeal. Applications in April totaled 94, up 44 from April 1954, with publicity about new funds for the aged and other factors boosting demand.
