putting men to work and added
II feel that it is urgent in view OF
the work situation in all parts of the
country to make available to other
States the allotment of men and money
which may not be taken up by some
States by the middle of next month.
Unless States can get their people to
work promptly, men clamoring for work
in other sections will take up the bal
ances. All State Civil Works Admins
trations are being notified in regard to
the urgent need for speed in formulat-
ing their program"
Hopkins also announced that the first
10000 pounds of butter to be dis
tributed to the needy was shipped yes

BALTIMORE. November 25.-There
are about $4,000 unemployed men and
women in Maryland actually seeking
jobs under the civil works program of
President Roosevelt and only IS, $50 jobs
are available.
Of this number, $4,000 are registered
in the Federal Unemployment Offices,
according to State Director Oliver c.
Short, and about 5000 are on the rolls
of the Baltimore Emergency Relief
Commission who are not registered at
the Federal Office.
After every civil works Job is filled,
Mr.. Short pointed out, there will still
be a surplus of 26750 unemployed
actually registered. He pointed out this
fact in order to emphasize the necessity
for private employers to continue to
make work" wherever possible.
Private employers have co-operated
splendidly with the Federal re-employ-
ment bureau since the first Office in
Maryland was opened late in August"
Mr.. Short said. The last office was not
opened until October, but more than
5000 persons have been given Jobs in
that time by private employers through
our Offices. The average rate now, l
should say, is about $500 jobs month"

ANAC0ST|A SCHOOL
PLAN IS SHELVED
Budget Bureau Action on
1885 Estimates HaIts Jun.
ior High Construction.

Plans for construction of the Ana
costa Junior High School, authorized
by Congress in the 1888 appropriations
act, have been laid on the shelf by re-
cent action by the Budget Bureau in
passing on the 1885 District estimates
it was learned last night.
An initial appropriation Of $225,000
for the building was contained In the
1888 act, the limit of cost being set at
$3.50, 900. An item for completion of
the building was expected to be con-
tanned in the budget for the next fiscal
year.
The new junior high school was de-
signed to serve a wide area of the
southeast section and relieve congestion
at Eastern High School.
While District officials have refused
to make any comment on Budget Bureau
decisions on the proposed 1885 budget,
other events have made apparent that
an item for completion of the building
has been strlken from the bill
Specifications for the building, to be
erected on the west side Of Sixteenth
street southeast, between Fairlawn
avenue and Ridge place, were completed
October rs. The former Board OF Com
n1issioners on November 4 formally ap-
proved the plans. Bids were to be
advertised at once, contractors TO be
given 81 days in which to submit Of
fers, and construction was to be started
within 10 days after the award of the
contract.
Budget Bureau officials took final ac-
ton on the District budget November
6. Since then the Commissioners have
made no move to advertise for bids for
the school, Advertisement Of the prof.
ect has been postponed indefinitely, it
was learned yesterday.

FIFTH WEEK Of CAS-
I. HEARINGS TO BEGIN
Klein to Continue Testimony
on Reproduction Costs
Tomorrow.

With more than 1000 pages of
stenographic transcript in its wake,
the valuation case Of the Washington
and Georgetown Gas companies will
move into its fifth week before the
Public Utilities Commission tomorrow.
August G. Klein, the companies ex-
pert on reproduction value, will be on
the stand for his thirteenth day Of
testifying and Assistant Corporation
Counsel william Roberts will continue
his attack on the companies estimates
for engineering and interest during
construction.
Cost Plus Reproduction.
Under Mr.. Klein's theory, q corpora
ton seeking to reproduce the properties
would hire the Stone g. Webster Engi-
neering Corporation of Boston to do
the job on cost plus basis. The engi-
neering firm would take six months for
preliminary engineering surveys. Since
eli Of the money for the job would be
available in advance, interest thereon
would be charged to the cost Of the job
from the start, and on the unexpended
balances until the whole contract had
been executed.
Period Held Unnecessary.
Mr.. Roberts is trying TO show that
no such period would be needed be-
cause the engineers would already know
exactly where each piece of the prop
erty would 60, and what it would be-
He is also trying to break down Klein's
assumption that the whole job would
have to be complete before a single
cubic foot Of gas could be sold to a
customer. Roberts theory is that part
OF the plant could be built, and could
start furnishing gas at profit, long
before the rest had been constructed
These are important and expensive
issues, as Klein has estimated interest
during construction at s2,738,0O0 and
engineering costs at $4s5 ,O0O-a total
of S3,233,0 900.
