Waterloo widow appeals for aid amid welfare dispute

A Waterloo widow faced Public Welfare scrutiny over aid eligibility after paying a $60 grocery bill herself. She owns a Waterloo home and will get a widow’s pension plus weekly death benefits, prompting Des Moines welfare officials to defend strict county and city limits. The case highlights tensions over who should fund relief and why she moved to Des Moines for work. Also noted is the voyage of North American raft with 7,500 cords of Canadian pulpwood from Port Arthur to Wisconsin Rapids.
