Employables 20-40 Will Be Denied Relief
Harrisburg June 20 The state board of public assistance adopted a resolution barring all unattached able bodied individuals between 20 and 40 from relief rolls after July 16. The action, announced by Chairman Frank A. Robbins Jr, is said to be a logical extension of a policy created two years ago for county boards to work out local needs. Russell notes the move will affect about 6000 people now on relief.
