Welfare Up 20 Percent In Year
Washington AP reports welfare rolls rose 20 percent to a record 12.2 million from 1969 to 1970, intensifying tax pressure and prompting potential federal budget boosts. Factors include economy, unemployment, court rulings, eligibility changes, and publicity by poverty groups. States may raise taxes to finance aid as relief services shrink. Federal aid covers about half the bill for dependent children, the blind, disabled, and the elderly.
