County Aid Program Faces Curtailment Under New Act
The county’s social welfare program serves 824 people including 589 children and 217 adults. Judge Nye warns cutting county relief saves little since 40 percent is county funded while 60 percent comes from federal and state funds, and restricting operations could force eligible cases onto county relief at higher local cost. The board adopts three rules to limit new aid and applications, and to reassign eligible cases back to county relief, signaling a tighter administration.

New Zealand New Deal parallels U S conflict with Courts
Boake Carter notes that New Zealand pursues a socialistic program with wage controls and union funding for political parties, echoing U S New Deal tactics. He compares New Zealand and Washington approaches, cites court rulings striking down many New Deal acts, and discusses labor’s influence and the Supreme Court’s interpretive role.
New Zealand New Dealers Faced With Court Challenge
The Court rejects weight of hardship in interpretation of law, a ruling echoed by US Supreme Court in recent years. New Zealand New Dealers vow to appeal to Britain’s Privy Council as they face dissolution of white collar unions and loss of expected tribute money. They accuse politicians of using people’s money to grow a bureaucracy and pursue spoils, comparing them to Washington Democrats.
