California ranks first in average aid per needy aged person in the state, with an average payment per month of $38.01. The average for the United States as a whole is $20 and, if this average is called 100, California’s payments per needy aged
person show an index of 190.1, the association found. California also ranks first in average payment per needy blind person, the average payment in the state being $48.05 per month, the association said. The average over the United States is $23.56 per needy blind person and California’s index number, based on $23.56 equalling 100, ‘s 203.9. California takes fourth place in aid to dependent children per family, providing an average of $45.33. However, it is still considerably above the national average of $32.56 and with that average as 100, has an index of 139.2, the association found. The only states which give more aid per family for dependent children are Massachusetts, New York and Rhode Island. “California has indeed been generous to the needy citizens within its ‘borders,’’ the Taxpayers’ association declared. ‘‘Not only does it provide the largest amounts per needy person, but its requirements for eligibility are liberal. Only about onethird of the persons receiving aid in the state come under these three categories. Other types of aid given to.complete the relief picture in the state, include SRA, WPA, CCC, NYA, FSA, and aid to county indigents. In February, 1940, 946,712 persons received aid in California. Aid given to these 946,712 persons totalled $17,734,797. This does not include the cost of administration.” RANKS OF CIVIL WAR VETERANS THINNING SACRAMENTO, May 30.—(UP)— There are only five ‘Civil War veterans in the; state’s veterans’ homes. A. P.
