Stamp Plan To Be Revised
Washington AP report the Agriculture Department will unveil revised proposals to expand food stamp access for the poorest families while excluding hippies and job shy adults. The plan responds to critics who said last April's rules were too restrictive and would shift costs to some low income households. About 11 million people receive stamps, double the level a decade ago. Under new uniform schedules, a family of four with income 50 to 60 dollars monthly would spend ten dollars on stamps worth ten dollars in supermarkets.
