- Description:
- Mr. Wisman Bohanan was deemed ineligible to receive public assistance due to owning land, which made him ineligible according to the Department of Public Welfare policies. His case was closed because he did not cooperate in securing the removal of restrictions on his surplus land. Various letters were exchanged between Mr. Bohanan, government officials, and welfare departments regarding his case and the removal of restrictions on his land. Congressman Carl Albert also got involved in the matter to try and help Mr. Bohanan receive assistance.
