Welfare grant boost urged to meet living needs statewide
California's fiscal watchdog urged raising welfare grants for needy children by 38 a family to meet minimum living needs. The proposal would cost about 200 million annually and trigger federal matching funds, with a 69.8 million boost in aid to AFDC families for 1971-72. Legislators broadly support increasing the grant though some proposals face cost concerns.

Six Glaciers to Grow This Year in Sierra Nevada
Six Sierra Nevada glaciers in the Tioga Pass area are expected to enlarge after heavy winter snows. A study team from the U S Geological Survey Yosemite National Park and Inyo National Forest notes glaciers on Mt McClure, Mt Lyell and nearby peaks store water for streams and lakes. Echoing concerns, Edwin C Rockwell warns that if glaciers disappear, Sierra streams and lakes would dry up by August.
