Phone 94 Many WPA Workers Lose Their Jobs I Uelweon 700 and sou workers have | been taken from the WPA roll lu j Kershaw county since October I, according to Information from the state administration offices, Added to this bad news is another, to the effect that the rolls of WPA workers in the statu will continue to bo reduced monthly j with no replacements or new assignments rhe state WPA administrator Paw fence M Plnckney, slated that ho was "forced to release people from WPA employment" but that the reduction was ordered In ull status Just as in South Carolina and of course, had to be made. j WPA headquarters in Washington has instructed the udeuso from the ! rolls of those who were elegible to (apply for social security benefits. Mr. 1 Plnckney said, and "the further re' reductions are being made through tlie release of farmers eligible to apPly for assistance to the farm security administration, a federal agency set up to render assistance to the | farmers." 'I he Increase lu WPA employment . this y ear that resulted In an ail-time | high in October, Mr. Plnckney contlnued, "was In a large measure due to the fact that the 1938 relief act provided that fanners were eloglble' for employment and that farmers were eligible to supplement their Income."! "The main Industry in the South being agriculture, there was naturally a large increase In all the Southern states In WPA employment due to the application of the fanners." .Regarding social security. Mr. Pinck1 ney said the WPA rolls in this state ! showed approximately 2.600 persons j were eligible to apply for benefits under the program. J He quoted the following letter from ! WPA headquarters In Washington to i show the pcfeJtion of (he government agency: i "This will acknowledge your letter i of November }> regarding the distills. sal from the works program of woiinen with dependent children. "1 be question of employing on the works program persons who are eligible under the federal law fur so(;cial security benefits is one to which I we have given careful consideration over a long period of time. It involves not only the immediate prob| lent of necessity, but a serious question of federal policy , j "We assume that congress in enacti; ing the social security act intended to make provisions, of a comparatively permanent nature, for persons I whose need is prlmarly due to causes other than unemployment. Under the i circumstances, we feel that our first | j responsibility, especially In view of the fact that the number of persons whom we can employ Is limited, must necessarily be toward these unemployed persons who cannot qualify for assistance under other federal , legislation. "Moreover, since the public assistance features of the social security act involve the states assuming the primary responsibility for assistance to mothers of dependent children and aged persons, both through the enjactment of appropriate legislation and f the appropriation of state funds, there j is a serious question as to whether | we would not delay the assumption | of this long little responsibility by ! the states, if we lontinued to ? mt jooV-"i?Ue h -{MfU-Soiin on tiie i?-<i?-rrti j aorks program. I "For these reasons, we do not feel we should employ such persons on our program." SACRED CONCERT ENJOYED AT GRACE EPISCOPAL CHURCH Rarely is one privileged to be liresent at a more beautiful sacred concert than that given In the Grace Episcopal church on Sunday evening, December 11. The director, Dr. Maurice Clarke, the choir, chosen from all the local church choirs, and the organist, Miss Sarali Campbell, deserve great credit for a really impressive performance. The church was filled to capacity long before the processional hymn, and every member o/ the large congregation must have enjoyed in its fullness the singing of the excellently blended choir. The rendition of "Great and Marvellous," from Gaul's "Holy City," and Sir John Stalnefs "Awake. Put on Thy Strength," were perhaps the out standing features, but the singing ol the Camden high school glee club, un dor the direction of Mrs. C. V. Sal mond, merits a great deal of praise Their rendering of Rubensteln't "Hear My Prayer," was especiall) good. The last part of the program wat devoted chiefly to well known hymnt of the season. The director urged th( congregation to Join in the singing ol "Adeste Fideles," but the plea fell or more or less barren ground. The laol of response may have been du? to the fact that the rear of the churcl was bathed In semi-darkness at tha time, but oven then the congregatloi j Is not entitled to anything but fain I praise | Franz Gruber's "Holy Night," sunt j kneeling by the choir and congrega .tion. was a fitting end to a most In spiring concerL j More than 1,900,000 paints havi lb?rn Issued iff the United States.
