PRESENTATION OF
PROPER PROJECTS
HOLD UP PROGRAM
HALF MILLION HOME OWN
Frs IN DISTRESS coMMUNI-
CATE WITH BOARD RELA-
TIVE TO NEEDS IN MATTER
By HERBERT PLUMMER
(By Associated Isressl

WASHINGTON, Nov. 49,
When President Roosevelt, in his
"third report" to the country, ex-
tended an invitation to home own
ers in distress to wire or write
Washington of their plight, the re-
Spouse was tremendous.
Almost Immediately messages
began to pile up at the Federal
Home Loan Bank board. Only a
few days had passed when 100000
home owners, faced with the threat
of foreclosure, had communicated
with the board.
These half-million applicants
have asked for financial aid to
the total of a billion and half
dollars.
In the same address, the presi-
dent issued another invitation.
.'The balance of the public
works money" he said, NEARLY
all of it intended for state or local
projects, waits only on the presen-
station of proper projects by the
states and localities themselves.
Washington has the money and is
waiting for the proper projects to
which to allot it."
This phase of the public works
program evidently was singled out
by the president, for the reason
that funds are going out slowly.
Explaining The Delay
Those who have watched the sit
uation from the outside as well
as experts in the PWA, believe
there are several reasons for the
delay. They are able to put their
fingers on a few. There may be
others.
For one thing, a lot of states
and localities not yet have been
brought around to believing that
higher taxes through the floating
of new bond issues is the way to
recovery.
Also, there are states which have
legal as well as financial restric-
tions in accepting PWA offers.
Secretary Ickes has said he wants
all applications in by January l..
n.view of this, therefore, some of
the states have abandoned efforts
to remove legislative barriers.
The survey and planning costs
of proposed projects form another
stumbling block to some. These
must be finished before actual con-
struction can begin. And while the
government has money for this
purpose as yet there has been
found no way to apply it locally.
Minority Control
Opposition has been expressed
in some instances because the fed
eral government, which contri-
butes only 25 percent of some ex-
penditures, insists on rigid control
of that particular project.
Labor costs play their part. too.
Many of the states have insisted
that no work can be done as long
as Washington insists all killed
labor must be paid at the rate of
$1.10 per hour.
II has been complained also
that Washington refuses to put
some money in the communities
by releasing funds for the pun
chase of, materials even though
materials SO purchased would GO
into construction. the project
got under way.
! These are few of the reasons
advanced for the delay which Is
throwing the recovering machine
ery out of gear. 1t may be neces-
sarv to remove some of the OBJ
stacles before full advantage can
be taken of the presidents invi-

Although the NRA has done
much to obliterate the evils Of
child labor, the public must be
made to realize that the roots Of
the problem go much deeper than
the "short-lived" recovery pro-
gram.
This statement was made to-
day by Mrs. Edith P. Mangold,
of Los Angeles, Calf. who is in
Washington this week for the
annual midwinter board meeting
of the National League of Women
Voters at the Hay-Adams House.
Benefits to End
Mrs. Mangold, who is national
chairman of the leagues depart
ment of child welfare, pointed out
that the NRA has proved a great
boon to the exponents of the child
labor amendment. but explained
that its benefits cannot continue
beyond the duration of the pro.
gram.
She therefore urged that the
States take advantage of the pres.
ent opportunity offered by the
NRA to obtain child labor legisla-
ton and to ratify the amendment
The movement has been given
considerable impetus during the
economic crisis because of the
necessity, she said, of giving to
adults jobs held before by chill
dren.
Bad Effects Cited

fects of child labor. she said:

PAY HOPE
SEEN IN HANDS
Of PRESIDENT
House Members SkeptiCaI OF
Wage Slash Repeal With
out Roosevelt Order

Government employees will have
to put most Of their trust in
President Roosevelt in their de-
sire for repeal of the IS per cent
pay cut, 1t appears from the
reactions of members Of the
House.
While many of the individual
members either have written or
verbally stated their inclinations
toward voting for a proposal to
give back the is per cent,
leaders have taken a skeptical
position regarding just what
action will be taken at the
coming session of Congress.
Rainey Doubtful
Speaker Henry T. Rainey Cd
of Illinois has asserted that it
depends largely on the condition
of the Treasury as to when the
salary reduction statute will be
repealed, and has intimated that
he doubts that full salaries will
be given next year.
Majority Leader Joseph w.
Byrns CD of Tennessee ex-
pressed the hope that the en-.
velopes of the Government work.
ers will be more nearly 100 0er
cent filled next year. but declined
to be definite in predictions.
James P. Buchanan CD OF
Texas, chairman of the House Ap.
preparations Committee, suggests
that what part of the cut, if any.
will be restored during the com.
ing session depends largely upon
what is revealed by the study now
being made to determine the
amount by which the cost of liv'
ing here has risen.
Sees Executive Order
He believes that if this study
shows that the cost of living here
has risen materially. President
Roosevelt will, by executive order,
restore whatever part Of the reduc,
ton he believes justified.
Further, ne suggests, it is likely
that Congress will appropriate to
bring salaries up to whatever place
the President fixes them in his
executive order.
In informal conversations with
most of the House members now
in the Capital it has been learned
that Buchanan's views are shared
generally by House members.
