SANDUSKY REGISTER NOV. 17, 1866 30-PAGE BOOKLET DETAILS FINDINGS OF SURVEY CONDUCTED BY CANVASSERS 'Final Word On Poverty Given To CAC Members BY JANET NELSON Register Staff Writer The "final word" on the ftfrvey conducted inpockets of poverty within Erie and Huron counties by the staff of the Erie-Huron Community Action Commission (CAC) Was distributed to members Of the CAC board last night and it received hardly a mention from the members. THE 30-PAGE, neat-looking yellow indexed booklet that took weeks for bi-counly CAC chairman Mrs. Caroline Ford and CAC staff worker Mrs. Fanchin Finney to prepare appeared to escape the attention of most members as they attempted to wind up a mass of business in their first annual meeting.

The 13-week survey, under taken under a $20,500 grant from the federal government, was the prime project to date for CAP. E. WASHINGTON ROW SANDUSKY JUNIOR HI DANCES Friday Saturday Y.M.C.A. Friday, 7 to 10 p.m. THE MUNX Saturday, 7 to 10 p.m.

According to the the CAC director, Calvin Stalnaker, the surveys are an accepted step in the total anti-poverty program in other communities.

But this 30-page report, besides being the official CAC wrap-up of the survey, at least partly resulted from the poor reception several members gave earlier "analyses." AND THE most vocal critic of those earlier mi- meoed two-page reports A. Michael Sumser was the only one to speak out on the newly-published report which director Stalnaker called "the final word on the survey" a month before it was prepared. Sumser called the report "a fine analysis and something many of us have been waiting for "think it's a splendid piece of work." Sumser has called earlier reports incomplete and said they din't jus- ify the cost. AS PRELIMINARY data, the report says 30 percent of the families (384) and 28 per cent of the persons (1,335) included in the surveyj from Erie County were found to be living in the poverty level. In Huron County, 31 per cent of the families (384) and twenty-seven per cent of the persons (1,328) included in the survey were poor.

From there the report tries to justify the CAC plans for new programs designed to fit the needs of these poor by facts. "Do we need programs and services for older people," the report rhetorically asked, then In the survey they located 305 persons in Erie County, and 238 in Huron County who were 60 years or over living on the poverty level. And they found 204 families in Erie County and 166 in Huron County whose primary source of income is Social Security benefits. HEAD START-The report gave data which it says backs up the need for these schools in Sandusky, Willard, Norwalk and New London. Neighborhood centers? The report says the relevant data shows 148 families live on $1,000 or less, that 1,305 children from birth to five years live in poverty, that 543 persons 60 or over live in poverty and points to 256 female heads of households.

In profiling the poor, the report says, children and older persons in the low income families we located in Huron County, over half the persons located on low income are children; in Erie County slightly less than half. "A LARGE number of older persons were also part of the located low i nc me per cent in Erie County, 17.9 per cent in Huron County. "In the low-income families located through our survey, the greatest number of families still had both husband and wife in the home. There were 174 married couples in Erie County (45.5 per cent of low income familes); 218 in Huron County (56.7 per cent of low income families). WIDOWS WERE the other large group Erie County 27.6 per cent of low income families; in Huron County 28.9 per cent of low income families.

"The greates number of our low income families located have one to four members. There is a remarkable similarity in both counties in this factor. SLIGHTLY OVER 94 per cent of Erie County low income families were found to draw their income from Soc i a 1 Security and other sources. Aid to Dependent Children and Old Age Assistance and welfare is a source of income for only 6.7 per cent of low income families located. The report then covers in detail each "pocket of poverty" the group surveyed.
