DV(P) Men Not to Write Inquiries
Business students who have enrolled in the new classification of the U.S. Naval Reserve, the DV(P) classification, as probationary ensigns, are requested not to write to the Kansas City district office of the U.S. Naval Reserve for further information at present, the office of the School of Business announced today.
This classification offers the student almost immediate draft exemption until he completes his college work and is open to junior and senior students in the School of Business. These students need not take an accelerated study program unless they wish to do so. They will have no special duties to perform and no training course to enroll in during the remainder of their college work.
The Kansas City branch has no additional details on the subject yet, but further data may be obtained from the director of officer procurement, U.S. Naval Reserve, Washington, D.C.
A year of college mathematics including trigonometry is necessary for this classification. College students not in the School of Business, who can meet more exacting physical standards, are also eligible.

County Assistance Falls Over Two-Year Period
For a two-year period, March 1, 1940, to March 1, 1942, the Douglas county welfare department observed a decrease in general assistance of 221 cases. On March 1, 1940, there were 492 persons receiving general assistance; on March 1, 1942, there were 271. This number includes inmates at the county home, transients, and county patients at the Norton sanitarium.
This decrease of the number of cases receiving general assistance is believed to be traceable to several reasons. One unl- ing cause is many per cent
derlying cause is, many persons on general assistance have transferred to old age assistance, creating an increase of 77 cases in the two-year period. Transfer Assistance Cases
Another reason for the decrease could be the fact that some general assistance cases have been transferred to aid to dependent children. These transfers have been made when the head of the family is permanently unemployed by doctor's order. With transfers and new cases, aid to dependent children has increased from 48 to 90 cases in two years.
In surveying other trends it was found that the county farm averages 35 to 40 inmates. Include Trees.
Include Transients
The transient group is included in the general assistance case load. The transient program provides that men asking for meal tickets are sent to the Salvation Army. They work one hour for a meal ticket which is paid by the Welfare department. When families are stranded, they are cared for while here.
The county also gives aid through the food stamp plan. Douglas county was one of the first eight counties in the state to participate in the plan.
