as Bqou as a survey of dix>ughl conditions had been completed. a decision would be made. If relief 10 extended, it will mew placing Kansas on the "official drought map" — areas receiving federal relief —which now includie Hi stales. The commissioner*, in a letter typical <>f many reaching WPA and resettlement adtiHiiistratlon headquarters these days said: "We have mighty few farmer , in Decatur county who would rather receive a dole than work. A very large per cent ot our farmers are high type citizens and they want to vork for what they get. "In Decatur county we have two lake projects that would provide a lot of work for these worthy farmers. "While it is true this county raiised some wheat, there are a lot of farmers who did not have any wheat. Their wheat went out in the winter.” Meanwhile, the agriculture de-

’' partnumt issued a report showing that on the basis of July 15 figures. the present drought is the worst in history with the exception of th<U in 1934. As some ol ' the hottest weather of the season has come since mid-month. agri- , cultural experts believed the • present drought would equal or surpass in intensity that of 1934. 1 Only the Pacific coast und j Texas were expected to produce crops above normal. They huye suffered little from the hot dry summer. Recent rains have improved conditions in the deep I south, but production there of feed crops, vegetables and corn was expected to fall below normal. — , - -o — Corrects Erroneous Pension Impression Indianapolis July 22 —The state of Indiana definitely is not paying a peneiin of 130.000 per month to I a’l of it’s citizens who are more j I than 70 years of age, Wayne Coy, I acting administrator of the depart-

ment ot public wa’fare, declared here today. "An erroneous tmprcMlon is eur- ! rent that all legal citizens of the i date, who are 70 years of age or older, are entitled to pensions of $30.00 iper month. The welfare art of 1930 definitely has no such provision," Coy declared. "The state and county departments ot publie welfare are not only willing, ibut anxious to help Its aged 'citizens who are actually In need, and are not able to support 1 themselves, or do not have relatives able to care for them. However the amount of such assistance granted is not fixed, other than a mlximum of $30.09 in extreme cases for those who have no income from , any other possible sources. The amount of assistance given in each case is dependent wholly upon need and with due consideration of any I other passible source as revenue an applicant may have, as determin- f ! ed by the local Departments of Pub- j lie welfare’’ Coy said.
