United Press reports from Columbus on March 8 that a state welfare survey shows only nine percent of Ohio relief workers are skilled, with about 32 of every 100 unskilled and 33 of working relief recipients limited to domestic or service jobs.

The study, first of its kind in Ohio, sampled 10 percent of relief cases across 151 areas.
