16 THE SALT LAKE TRIBUNE SUNDAY MORNING OCTOBER 18 1936 World Peace Pardon Board Grants Parole In Ten Cases Death Claims Sportsman in Storm Mishap Hunter Gets Cat Instead Of His Deer Age Pension Plan Lauded In Opinions Wire Companies Repair Demolished Lines Two Reports Submitted to Governor Suggest Probe of Actual Need Applicants for old age assistance to individual "need in continuation in Utah should be investigated as of the present plan it was 'emphasized in two reports submitted Saturday to Governor Henry Blood One opinion from Frank Bane executive secretary of the social security board came as the result of a request from tne governor which grew out of demands made on the state board of public welfare by a committee representing the old age pension group This committee comprised of Kenneth Farnsworth Christensen and Glover requested that liens be eliminated no investigation of relatives to determine if they are able to support applicants for assistance and elimination of case workers Extent of Need Determination of extent of need to aged persons is a matter for the states and requires investigation of individual cases Mr--Bane- concluded All state plans so far approved by the social security board have provided for investigation to determine need and extent of need This theory was backed up in an independent report made by Glen Leet field representative of the American Public Welfare association who made a survey in Utah a week ago He said in part: is a common misappre hension regarding the social security act Many people seem to believe that it provides an old age pension of 630' a month to all persons over 65 regardless of need It does not seem to be generally realized that under the terms of the social security act federal funds are available only to provide assistance to needy persons Probes Necessary do not see how the Utah state welfare board could certify to the federal government that federal funds were being expended upon needy persons as provided in the federal act unless they continue to make investigations In the light of a careful analysis of Title 1 of the federal social securityactthe conclusion seems inescapable that the Utah state board of public welfare would be seriously jeopardizing the federal funds now coming into the state to assist aged persons who are in genuine need were they to discontinue adequate investigations and start certifying all persons over 65 without adequate of Previous to the request from the old age pension committee the board had eliminated liens on property valued at less than $1000 which relieved about 80 per cent of old age applicants from this requirement Champ acting chairman has announced Plan Lauded "Passage of the Utah law for unemployment compensation Is one of the finest examples of social engineering Which I have wrote Mr Leet in his report which was forwarded to Governor Blood by Fred Hoehler director of the national association have analyzed the bill quite carefully and it seems to

three candidates Governor Blood Ray Dill-man Republican and Harman Peery Progressive-Independent Some he continued we should desert our choice and throw our weight behind Peery or Dillman But what would be gained by this?
