It was noted, how ever, that the 533 applications re ceived in February showed a de crease from the January total of 608. This drop corresponds with the trend of previous years. The increase in applications this wint er has been general in all parts of the county but slightly heavier in the cities in southern Westches ter. For many recent years unemploy ment was a minor factor causing people to require help. Caseloads have been made up largely of needy children, the sick, the aged, the handicapped, families with no employable member and those re quiring supplementation because of high rentals. This February, 30 per cent of the applicants for pub lie assistance gave decreased earnings or unemployment as their major reason for applying as compared with 20 per cent a year ago. About 34 per cent of those now applying are found not to be el igible for assistance. There are others who need only partial help or help for a short time. partment of Public Welfare has had more than the usual midwinter rise, Commissioner Stanton M. Strawson said in releasing figures today. Although 997 home relief cases in February were 25 Der cent more than the number in Febru ary a year ago, the total com munity caseload of 6,939 in the combined child care and public assistance programs was less than 3 per cent, above the 6,785 in February 1957. This total is con siderably below the same month in 1950 when the department was still experiencing the effects of the 1949 economic adjustment and had a total caseload of 7,492. The public assistance programs administered throughout the coun include aid to dependent chil dren, old age assistance, aid to the blind, aid to the disabled, and home relief which includes veter an assistance.
