But 212 of the 282 participants reside in Cache county with only 67 in Box Elder Count-- . In addition, Walsh's office administers other assistance programs which combine food stamp assistance with such things as financial aid to the blind. About 200 households receive food stamps under these programs rd with about of that total residing in Box Elder county. Walsh said one problem in pitting eligible people to use food stamps is a "stigma" attached to the program that it is a handout Walsh said the stigma especially prevents senior citizens from making application. Fople fail to realize that they have to pay according to their capability for the food stamps which merely supplement but don't replace the individual's responsibility to feed himself. Food stamp information is being distributed everywhere in the state. Local food stores have joined hundreds of others in the state by passing out food stamp literature to customers. Central to the information effort is a network of telephone hotlines that any interested person can call to find out about Food Stamps and where to apply. Food stamp information is available by calling either the statewide toll free numnow one-thi- or ber: by Ogden; calling The telephones are in service from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. Monday thru Friday.
