That concept. based on the depression days of the thirties. is no longer adequate to serve the changed requirements of today. In the spring of last year. the City Council of Newburgh gave Mr. Mitchell what he describes as extraordinary powers to take any action in welfare to reduce the costs and stop the influx of parasitic migrants into the city. The result was the socalled 13 points. a group of regulations imposing severe restrictions on welfare eligibility and payments. A court has since found 12 of the 13 points in violation of State law. and they have never been applied.
