Food Stamp Plan Gains Momentum in Clark County
Clark County leaders discuss a proposed federal food stamp program with state and county officials led by Quentin Emory. If approved, the plan could inject about 220000 annually into the local economy via 3000 potential participants, with benefits amplified by $60 in stamps for $100 value. Implementing agencies and banks would need approval, and Nevada must pass enabling legislation to enter the program.

No Effect Here From Big Cutback
A spokesman for the Nevada Operations Office of the Atomic Energy Commission said the 1000 job cuts at Oak Ridge will not affect the Nevada Test Site. He noted the Nevada operation is distantly related, focusing on developmental testing while Oak Ridge builds weapons. None of the Oak Ridge layoffs are expected to apply at the test site. The cutback follows decreased Defense Department needs for additional nuclear weapons and a slower rate of nuclear stockpiling.
