CHIEF TSR researcher on the project, James Morgan, criti- cizes welfare policies for ne- glecting families and instead of- fering more incentives to in- dividuals. He says that "family dynamics are crucial." "The widespread belief that people can overcome poverty through fierce determination aided by welfare work in- centives is a fallacy,"vargues Morgan. "A person's mental attitude has little effect. Rather, out- side factors influencing his fam- ily make-up - new children or divorces - are more signifi- cant," he explains. MORGAN ALSO argues against guaranteed income schemes which, he says, would prema- turely split-up families and dou- ble taxes used for welfare. The HEW interpretation of the University's findings sent to the gets attention President, has also received criticism from ISR. According t HEW's Technical Officer Jonathan Lane, w h o monitor's the ISR research, the President was particularly inter- ested in the HEW figures indi- cating that between 1968 and 1973, 45 per cent of the popula- tion was eligible for welfare at one time or another. "These numbers provide the Administration with just more evidence that the present wel- fare system needs overhauling," says Lane. HOWEVER, Morgan disputes the HEW figures, "These are ei- ther a misinterpretation of our research or they got them else- where," he says. "Our study dasn't designed to make such estimates or catch the Administration's welfare cheaters," he states. "Rather, what the data really shows is a high turnover in the poverty population," Morgan explained. The project also stated that women on the average are paid $1 an hour less than men in comparable jobs. A woman- headed family's chances of per- sistent poverty is twice as great as male-headed; and Blacks earn 10 per cent less than whites holding similar jobs. The ISR report has often in- volved ISR personnel in massive detective work - keeping tabs on the increasingly mobile fam- ilies and their offspring whom they attempt to interview each spring. "We followed the original 5,000 families, and when some- one leaves the family, we follow them too - the sample keeps growing!" states Joan Brinser, an ISR program director. Nevertheless, ISR hopes to continue the follow-ups for at least four more years. "We would have lost the families long ago if we didn't pay them, she admits. For the first five years, ISR personnel conducted personal interviews among the families. But recently, to cut expenses, the Institute has conducted phone interviews. thru Classified [ 1 a.,tocSoma* dThisNwasporartTho A Can a ynqW do tha yu do any b r Probably not. All things considered you do what you do pretty doggone well. After all,no one has taken your job. And you're eating regularly. But... But have you ever considered what doing your job just a little better might mean? Money. Cold hard coin of the realm. If each of us cared just a smidge more about what we do for a living, we could actually turn that inflationary spiral around. Better products, better service and better management would mean savings for all of us. Savings of much of the cash and frayed nerves its costing us now for repairs and inefficiency. Point two. By taking more pride in our work we'll more than likely see America regaining its strength inthe competitive world trade arena. When the balance of payments swings our way again well all be better off economically. So you see-the only person who can really do what you doany better is you.
