conference On the matter between Alan
Johnstone of the Federal Relief Ad-
ministration and District officials.
Johnstone, who is the field repre-
sentative of the Federal relief agency
for the District. Maryland, Virginia
and Southern seaboard States, said,
following the conference, no final de-
cisions had been reached, but that ac-
tion would be taken very quickly in
order that relief operations here may
be expanded to meet current calls for
assistance.

reviewed again tomorrow at conferences

Steering Committee of the Board of

his first task would be to determine, SO
far as possible, just how much money
the District will require to meet its
emergency relief problems Throughout
the current fiscal year. The next step.
he said, will be to discover ways Of
making that full quota available.
He indicated clearly that the Dis

ment from the Federal relief appro-
priation, in addition to the s173,0O0
which the District already has re-
quested, this amounting to one-third
of the amount of public funds spent
here for relief during the second quar-

Johnstone said also he would seek
definite ruling from Lewis w. Doug

whether that official would move to
limit the Districts monthly expendi-
ture out of its appropriation for re-
lief to a sum amounting to one
twelfth of the appropriation.
