WRA TO GIVE ASSISTANCE Transportation and ini- tial living expenses for evacuees who leave the proj- ect on indefinite leaves and who need financial as- sistance may now be paid by the WRA, according to word received by Project Director James G. Lindley yesterday. WRA will, make cash grants at the time an evacuee leaves the center. The max- imum grant includes coach fare for each member of the immediate family; $3 per person for meals for each day of travel; and initial living expenses at the place of employment, $50 for wage earner, plus $25 each for two dependents. Interested evacuees must obtain indefinite leaves from Leave Officer Willis Hanson before applying at the office of John O. Moore, public welfare counselor, for the cash grants. If a cash-on-hand and cash income statement which is required shows insuffi- cient funds to cover trans- portation costs and initial living expenses, Director Lindley will issue a cash grant for the difference. If all the members of a family do not leave togeth- er, only that part of the grant allowance which the worker needs will be issued at that time, and the re- mainder when the dependents leave.
