Pittsburgh — State Senator John M. |
Walker, Allegheny Republican, an-
nounced on Sunday that he had sent |
a protest to Secretary of Assitance |
Howard L. Russell criticizing the de- |
partment’s practice of demanding “re-
imbursement agreements” from relief
clients.
Walker declared the “reimbursement |
agreement” included a $2,000 judge- |
ment clause, and added:

N ow comes the magic time of year. The cares, the troubles,

peaceful, loving spirit that rests upon our hearts.
It's Christmas! Let’s make everybody happy...wife, husband,’

Party.”
In a letter to Russell, Walker refer- |
red specifically to a case in Clairton |
where a mother died leaving eight
orphaned children. The Senator said
he was informed that an employe of
the Department of Assistance was de-
manding that each of the children sign
the “reimbursement agreement” before
receiving relief, |
During the last session of the Leg-
islature it was disclosed that the De-
partment of Public Assistance was re-
quiring relief clients to sign judge- |
ment bonds which could be used to |
|
|
|
|
obtain refunds to the state in cases
where individuals later acquired pro-
perty or where fraud was shown.
After protests by both Republican
and Democratic senators, the Senate
adopted a resolution instructing the di-
rector of public assistance to discon-
[ Thue the practice, Walker recalled.
This was done, he said, but the agree-
ment containing the judgment clause
[ later was substituted. |
Walker declared the assistance law

and called upon Secretary Russell to

“has an opportunity to contact him..
“I have no objection,” said Walker,
“to the Department of Assistance re-
| quiring the relief recipients to sign a |
| fraud bond which would permit the |
| commonwealth to recover relief money
where the recipient has perpetrated a |
fraud on the commonwealth, because |
that is an effective check on so-called |
relief chiselers.”
In many instances, he continued, re-
lief clients “are widows, orphans, mi-
nor children and even infants” and
asked, “by what right do we penalize
their future by insisting that they sign
| a judgment note x x before they can |
| get a few dollars of relief money ?”

MINERS ASSAIL ACTION
OF GOVERNOR JAMES |
Washington — The United Mine |
Workers, through their official jour-
nal, last Saturday attacked Governor
Arthur H. James for dismissing a son
of John Mitchell, former president of
the union, from state employment,
The “Journal” ssaid:
“On the very day when the miners
of the anthracite region were obser- |
ving John Mitchell Day and placing a
floral wreath on the monument of the
great union leader in Scranton; on the
very day when the entire anthracite
industry was suspended and the miners
were oberving their annual day of id-
leness as a mark of respect to the
memory of John Mitchell, ,Governor
James, the rock-ribbed labor -hating
governor of Pennsylvania, fired John
Mitchell’s son, Richard Mitchell from
the $2100-a-year state job which he had
held with honor and ability for 10
years. ¢
“The governor's action came as a
distinct shock not only to the mine
workers of Pennsylvania but to all of
labor as well. The incident is further
proof of the fact that the voters of
Pennsylvania made a hideous mistake
when they elected James for governor
and defeated Thomas Kennedy.”
Mr. Kennedy is secretary-treasurer
of the United Mine Workers, and was
defeated in the Democratic primary
which nominated Charles Alvin Jones,
who later was defeated by Governor
James.
