The money is part of $1,445,000 in federal child welfare service funds earmarked for California during the current fiscal year, and is used to supplement state and local expenditures for assistance to families and children. These services are aimed at problems involving school absenteeism, family breakup, illegitimacy, adoptions, child neglect, and foster home placement.

The 18 counties receiving these funds have submitted satisfactory child welfare plans showing sufficient and professionally qualified staff to carry them out. J. M.
