(UPI Telephoto) Stamp Plan May Aid This Area (Continued From Page 17) created to administer and distribute surplus foods would no longer be needed. Bartow said the advantage of the stamp plan, aside from its obvious benefits in boosting trade, is the manner in which assistance and low income families have a "free choice" in purchasing foods of their individual or group preference. That "free choice" is limited only by the requirement that stamps must be spent for food items "produced in this country." This rules out use of stamps for such items as tea and coffee plus, of course, food items imported from overseas.

Food stamp plan enrollees in Luzerne County purchase stamps under authorizations, issued by Bartow and based on individual factors, twice a month. They go to participating banks 'to purchase stamp allocations and receive the additional free stamps. Bartow, who said the stamp plan takes the food program out sphere of control by (counties, explained participants must undergo periodic certification and can be eliminated from participation if during two benefit periods they neglect to pur chase stamps. Such individuals or families, however, can regain eligibility through filing of new applications. Adoption of a stamp plan as replacement for distribution of speficified surplus foods can represent substantial savings through elimination of payments for warehousing, distribution and administration.

Bartow summarized his favorable opinion on the food stamp plan in five words: "It helps the whole economy." UPI Editors At Conclave curity measures were given both candidates.
