Welfare Changes Redistribute Grants in Nevada Program

The Nevada welfare department will consolidate rules for Assistance for Dependent Children effective Nov. 1, shifting grants. The needy caretaker category will see average increases of 54 dollars per child, while 421 step parent cases are cut and 30 cases terminated. Non-needy caretakers mainly remarried women with earned husbands support. The current 158 dollar monthly payment for one child in this class reflects Nevada law not requiring stepfather support. The needy caretaker group, typically a deserted wife, now averages 229 dollars per month for one child. The incapacitated parent payments follow a similar schedule to the needy caretaker. Also noted, 40 to 50 percent of large U.S. firms plan at least 10 paid holidays in 1975.
