State fears dumping of Cuban refugees in Arizona
The Arizona Welfare Board worries refugees flown from Cuba to the United States may be dumped in the state without notice. Welfare Commissioner John O. Graham cites a $100 payment and transportation from Florida as part of an agreement with a Cuban premier. Mabel Cook notes sponsors in Pima County and Scottsdale inquiring about welfare, while board members say none have arrived and warn against hastening action. The board also tentatively approves standards for 10 Arizona child adoption agencies.
