Warner Baxter, Ketti Gallian Expect Fund Reduction; 1,595 Families on Rolls, By Staff Correspondent TAYLORVIT Due to jhe expected reduction in relifef fund appropriations, issuing of clothing and hourehold necessaries to relief members probably will be reduced during October, Sherlaw, county relief administrator, said Saturday.

With the cut in appropriations the reduction in this branch of relief assistance becomes necessary in order that food and fuel grants can remain the same. The sum of $52,000 has been requested to carry relief operations through the month of October, but officials do not believe that amount can be provided. Christian county had families on the relief roll Oct. 1. which is a slight reduction from the number one month ago.

The October 1934 census shows a total of 2,009 relief families in the county. As a new phase in the relief program an attempt is being made to arouse interest in the establishment of community recreational centers throughout the county. These projects, which come under the class of the WPA, propose to organize athletic programs- and classes for instruction in such subjects as metalcraft, homemaking, aircraft building, and sewing. The classes would be designed primarily to include instruction in children's hobbies, but would take in subjects for adults also. The organization of these centers depends largely on community interest in the project, which is being tested now through contact with various civic clubs in the different localities.
