County to Launch Food Stamp Plan Soon
Lawrence County plans to join Pennsylvania counties in a fast expanding food stamp program to supplement staple foods. The New Cassie Relief Board said funds from a revolving $12,000 pool will finance the effort, with orange and blue stamps accepted at local grocers for relief purchases. The plan targets overabundant foods and includes items like apples, oranges, grapefruit, vegetables, and meat, with relief checks used to buy goods as desired. Separately, news from Mercer reports Dr. James J. R. Young’s safe status after a kidnapping incident in China, with his mother Mrs. Lillian Youngs receiving updates and his location under hospital surveillance. Marguerite Luce, a Wilson College graduate, is noted in the same notice.
