Mormon leader Heber Grant drives church welfare plan
Heber J. Grant, 83, president of the Mormon church, champions a self-help welfare program with coal mines, factories, and grain elevators. The plan, church run and nonpolitical, aims to reduce relief needs, rebuild character, and avoid government aid. Grant’s leadership, humor, and creed of work underpin a long campaign to support 800,000 faithful and sustain Temple Square operations in Salt Lake City.
