April 22, 1942 The fire defence council, head CYNTHIA AND DONALD SCHULTZ (nee Cynthia Darlene Simon) Schultz-Simon A flurry of applications from employers in the last week before the deadline was a factor that helped surpass last year's level of Fraser Valley bids for assistance under the provincial Youth Employment Program, said field coordinator Bart Henstra. The Valley region ended up with 205 applications from farms, 115 from businesses and 14 from non-profit organizations, a small increase from last year, he said. These bids face two hurdles before the applicants will know if their proposals are to get funding to pay part of the hourly wages of persons aged 15 to 24 hired for approved additional summer jobs in May through August.

Area recommendation committees assist in the adjudication of the applications on the basis of program objectives and regulations, and final approval comes from the ministry of labor in Victoria. Mr. Henstra said that if all the Fraser Valley applications were given final approval they would probably use all of the allocation for the area, $168,000 for farms and $59,000 for businesses. However, it is anticipated that once priorities are weighed in the adjudication process, some will be rejected including some good applications. Applicants have made individual proposals ranging from one to five jobs, all of which, according to program regulations, must be additional to the applicant's regular number of full-time, part-time, piece-work and seasonal employees.

Applications from the Central Fraser Valley (Abbotsford-Matsqui-Aldergrove) for the farm program totalled 115, compared to 83 from the Fraser-Cheam region of the Upper Fraser Valley, and seven from the Hatzic-Deroche area. The preliminary allocation of funds for the farm program had $54,261 for Fraser Cheam, and $113,783 for Central Fraser Valley to be apportioned between applications from Lang-ley and those from the Abbots-ford-through-Aldergrove area. The business program had 66 applications from Fraser Cheam and 49 from Abbotsford-Alder-grove. Available funds for the business program were allocated on a preliminary basis as $29,185 THE pearls worn by her mother at her wedding. Janet Mathis was matron of honor.
