It differed from the prior conference primarily in its use of tho interdisciplinary approach to the problems of unemployment and poverty. Also, a higher level of sophistication was used in the analyses of the major problems and in the presentation of the latest findings in the fields of poverty and hard-core unemployment. The goal of the conference, as stated more fully in the Introduction, was to provide the Employment Security personnel with the most significant and up-to-date information on the hard-core unemployment and poverty prob-!ems. It was hoped that in this way they would then become more cognizant of the social-psychological dimensions of the poverty problem and the complex needs of the poor in such areas as job training and job development.

A historical contributor to the present condition is the decline of the coal industry. Also a contributor is the general apathy of the citizens toward change and economic progress.

The document provides an analysis of factors producing West Virginia's economic situation in 1968, suggestions for governmental action and a government expenditures policy, and discussions of expenditure areas such as the educational system, public welfare system, health, industry, and the transportation system.
