First Annual Report Of Public Welfare, ? During the your of 1936 *7,460.80 was spent |>y the Kershaw County Temporary Department of Public Wei- j fare for relief in this county. Of this sum *2,483.60 wore put up by the county and wuh matched on u two to one basts with Federal Funds, which tnude the total of *7.460.80. Thle arrangement was made poaal-1 blu through Federal money which was given to the stute when the old M. It A. wuh liquidated in 1936. Funds which wore left over after thlu liquidation were granted to ttya Htate to aid with the care of the unemployable group until legislation was enacted to create a permanent Depart 111,0111 of Public Welfare and enable the Htate [to participate in the benelltH of the Federal Social Security Act. | ' These fundH are administered local-j ly by a Cpunty Advisory Hoard, con- I slsting of: W T. Hedfearn. chair-' man; Mrs. w. J. Mayfleld, DoKalb j rl own ship; Mrs. Daisy McUturln, Buffalo lownsliip; Gordon llell, West) Wateree Township; Herbert Young, Flat rock Township. iu presenting this report, the board , Kays : "It is with a great deal of pleasure .! that we reflect upon the plousant deal- , ings and the manner In which the administration of the affairs of the Temporary Department of Public Welfare have been handled In the Kershaw!' county office for the pjyu year. Every needy ease that has been called to ' our attention has been delt with in ' a most satisfactory manner and all such cases have been given as near adequate relief as was possible. We hope that during the coming year the same feeling of cooperation will exist In this county and that a permanent plan for a Department of Public Wei- ' fare can be formulated." The staff of the Kershaw County Temporary Department of Public Welfare consists of the following: Miss Sarah Crawford, director; Miss Thelma Flowers, visitor; Mrs. 1 Inez G. Ogburn, stenographer; J. C. Team, clerk; Victor Ward, visitor. j All salaries and expenses of the j above staff are paid by the state de- ] partment out of the Federal Fund. No county funds being used for this purpose. The activities of the Kershaw Coun- 1 ty temporary Department of Public ' Welfare consists of: aid to the needy!1 aged; aid to the needy blind; aid to! ! dependent children; aid to the needy mentally add physically handicapped.!1 Charts In this report show that the ' 1 largest group eared for Is the needy I aged?the smallest Is the blind. ! , Since county funds are matched by j 1 federal funds, it i8 the duty of the : 1 Department of Public Welfare to ren-', der services to other federal agencies I and to make available to Department of Public Welfare clients all fetTeral resources. For example: during the year of 1936, 133 boys from Kershaw county were Bent to Civilian Conservation Corps camps; 134 people were referred to the W. P. A.; 39 families were accepted by the Rural Resettlement for care; the National Youths Administration gave employment to 110 boys . and girls during 1936; through cooperation of the county, a nutrition camp was made possible . during the summer for undernourished children. As is shown by a chart In the an-1 nual report, the number of applica-! tions for relief have steadily decreas- j * d and the case load has remained i about the same for the past few j months, which shows that practically ! all the needy people In the county! are being cared for. As we look forward to the coming! jear, we hope that the same cQopera-j five feeling will be extended and that, maximum results can be obtained j through minimum social equipment.
