Agencies report more demand than supply
By NEAL McCHRISTY Staff Reporter
Recent welfare cuts have left some local agencies struggling to provide services to the needy, and a local welfare agency supervisor said that the cuts could cause less money to be spent locally.
Two local agencies funded by private donations or by the United Fund have reported an increased demand for their short-term services this year.
The Salvation Army, 946 New Hampshire St., spent $500 more from October 181 to mid-February 1828 that it spent from October 1888 to the end of February 1881. Capt. Robert Thomson, County Salvation Army, said last week.
The Salvation Army pays landlords, utility companies or grocery stores by voucher. Thomson said.
ANOTHER AGENCY, Penn House,
1035 Pennsylvania St., has averaged
nine or 10 applications a week for
emergency services this year compared to three or four applications a
week last year, Delores Bryant, office worker for Penn House, said Wednesday.
Penn House provides services that include emergency food and clothing, help for preparing income tax through the use of Volunteer Income Tax Credit, referral to agencies that provide services such as budget counseling, she said.
The federal budget cuts also have
affected the amount of money people spend locally, said Ernest Dyer, Douglas County income maintenance section chief.
“Our clients help grocery stores, shopes-stores that—sort of thing,” he said. “Those are the kinds of places that our customers need.” A lot of them send all that they receive.
"Instead of getting people off welfare, they are increasing the welfare load." Thomson said.
Both Bryant and Thomson said they were seeing more people affected by welfare budget cuts, particularly people whose Social and Rehabilitation Services child-care assistance had been reduced or discontinued.
“It’s frustrating to see it happen. I can mentally see what Reagan’s trying to do, but he’s going about it backwards.”
GRYANT SAID also that she had seen an increase in people asking for help because they could not afford to pay for child care, as well as persons who had checks reduced because of new income guidelines by SRS.
"I'm seeing that type more and more." she said.
However, job training would reduce the number of people that apply for assistance through Penn House, Bryant said.
"The government is going to have to do something about creating work, training the unskilled for skills so they can get a job, and educating the public that these people are available." Bryant said.
The Lawrence Fire Department answered a call about 9 a.m. yesterday at Stouffer Plaza apartments, fire department officials said.

Station No. 2 answered the call for a roof fire at the apartments, where workmen were taring a roof. When they arrived at the scene with two engines and a ladder truck, fire fighters found a grass fire that fire officials said was caused when workmen threw a burning broom on the grass.

"The theory is that local government would be more aware of what is needed and able to make rules and regulations to care for the truly needy," said Dyer. "Most people are willing to help the truly needy."
KU police put the fire out with two fire extinguishers. There was no damage.
POLICE REPORTED a lost or stolen wallet between 4 p.m. and 1 a.m. Sunday from 2238 Iowa St. Police said that a man with $400 worth of cash and credit cards.

Shortfalls, or the amount needed by people to maintain their essentials, could cause problems for Kansas if the state's budget is cut. Money to be捐 in the Reagan budget.
"Pride is nice, but when you're going hungry or you're too cold, it don't fill your stomach and it don't warm your body," she said.

"Kansas will do the best that it can for its people," Dyer said. "But I'm not saying that Kansas will be able to make up all the shortfalls for its people."
An SRS supervisor said that some of the welfare changes that returned some programs to the states were proposed
BURGLARS STOLE more than $1,500 worth of stereo equipment and tools

Bryant is also a member of the Emergency Services Council, a group that provides assistance to people who have had utility cut-offs, are evicted or need help with deposits for rent and utilities, she said.
