Relief Rolls Decline—Costs Increase
Paradoxical as it may seem, the
number of families on relief rolls
throughout the country during April
was 3.6 per cent, below the March
figure, while on the other hand, the
costs of relief gained! nearly one per
cent, in the same period. In South
Carolina there were 6,500 fewer fami
lies on relief in April than in March,
a decrease of 12.4 per cent. No figures
were available a s to whether Or not
there was an increase in costs in this
State.
Should Not Ignore Charges.
Mr. Ben E. Adams, editor of The
Carolina Free Press, a weekly news
paper published at Columbia, prefer
red a number of grave charges against
the administration of federal relief
in South Carolina in an editorial pub
lished on ihe front page of last week’$
edition of that newspaper. It is re
produced in this issue of The People-
Sentinel for the information of our
readers.
Mr. Adams’ allegations that county
relief offices are being mal-adminis-
tered should' not be allowed to go un
challenged by those charged with the
administering of fedeial relief funds
in this State. They should not be ig
nored.
While Mr. Adams is not specific in
his allegations—that' is, he does not
name any specific county administra
tion in his editorial—the State ad
ministrator should clear the county
administrations of the charges, or
'dear them out. Mr. Adams says:
"Those in charge have become more
and more arrogant. They have now
assumed the position that they are
above the reach of the law and not
accountable to any agency. They are
badly fooled. Perhaps they can pad
payrolls; misappropriate commodSties;
fatten expense accounts and £ et by
■with it. But when they assume the
attitude of dictators and treat honest,

tell how to set about ousting ‘em
ployes that are objec-tienable to the
public?’ From what we hear there
are many such on the various relief
rolls, their ‘objectionable’ nature be-
out, and that the poleesman was saw

Mr. Hopkins is able. He is strong.
