HOPKINS PRAISES
|. LOCAL c. WA PLAN
Says Projects Have Been
Handled Admirably in
National Capital.

Washington's management of the
Civil Works Administrators projects
was praised highly today by Harry L.
Hopkins, national administrator. who
took occasion to complim cnt the Dis
trict Commissioners and Howard F.
Clark, chairman of the Work Planning
Committee. He expressed satisfaction
with the progress of the prog am here.
Hopkins estimated the C. w. A. work
here will end between April Is and
May /. That date was arrived at by
estimating the seasonal improvement
that is expected to begin in the South
in the early Spring and work North
gradually.
Work to Stop Gradually.
The work will be tapered off first in
the farming areas of the South as the
cruo season approaches and farm labor
demanI grows. AS the weather I'M
proves, he said, the activities will be
dropped further North.
This, Mr.. Hopkins said, will dovetall
with the Public Works Administrators
plans, for contracts awarded in that
program will begin to reach their most
active stage in the late Spring and early
Summer and will be able to absorb
many now employed in the c. w. A.
program. He also expects some pickup
by that date in normal industrial ac-
tivity.
The work here has been handled di-
rectly by Commissioners Hazen, Allen
and Cotwals and Mr.. Clark.
Airport Is Advocated.
Construction of municipal airport
here by C. w. A. labor was advocated
in a resolution adopted last night by
the Washington Air Derby Association
at meeting in the Racquet Club. The
resolution, forwarded today to the Com
missioners, recommends that the air
port be built on a site wholly within the
District of Columbia.
In the resolution no mention was
made of a possible location, but in
formally members of the association
agreed on a site along the Anacostla
River between Benning Bridge and
Kineman Lake. This sale would take in
a portion of the old Benning race track
area.

gan to dawn upon the business COM
munity that there Is no close relation
ship between a given amount of dollar
depreciation and prices, much less be-
tween such depreciation and the con-
sumption of goods. With very few ex-
ceptions, of which cotton is naturally
the most conspicuous, it can now be
said with confidence that prices no
longer respond readily to slight changes
in the value of the dollar, and that
such responses as they are now making
seem rather more due to the possibility
CT very much greater depreciation than
to additional mild specific doses of that
stimulant.
1t has recently been asserted by the
chief of the National Recovery Admin
istration that the abandonment of the
gold standard and dollar depreciation
were required in order to make possible
the adoption Of the policies of the ad-
mlnistration, known as the new DEAL"
and particularly those of the NJ r. A.
I see no sound basis for this view.
No doubt the provisions of many of
the codes involve some increase in unit
costs of production, even in the event
