Centralized in II Of Arizonas

rcf Administration rograin-ERA-
will be placed in effect April is
;tate civil works officials announc-
I'd this week in making the first de-
| tailed release on the new employ
| nent program which will replace
he CWA.
Again the program will call for
| 'arge-scale employment.
All of the current CWA program
viii be helted March 81 to allow
'inal winding up of the present
et-up, re-registration of unemploy"
I ID needy and planning of new pro%
| iects.
May Double Employment
The number of men who will be
employed under the new program
will be an undetermined question
until registration is completed
| but it was estimated by Miss Flor
| ,nca M. Warner, of Phoenix, admin
'strator, that twice as many persons
would be able to obtain work relief
| lnder the ERA as under the CWA.
The II cities where the program
will be centralized and the first
work Of unemployment begun un-
der the new sct-up are Nogales
Phoenix, Tucson, Prescott, Jerome
| Clarkdale, Bisbee. Douglas. Globe
Miami and All. Registration bu,
reaus will be set up in each Of thesf
communities as rapidly as possible.
The plan calls fir each family ir
need of relief, having one person
able to work, to place an applica-
ton for employment with the reg
istration bureau. No more than 2f
weeks work a year will be allowed
per person employed, and it will b.
up to the individual to take this
work during the period of his great
est need
| Camps For Younger Men
One of the major provisions o
the ERA will be the removal oi
young men between 10 and Is years
| of age from direct compensation
with older persons. This group OF
persons will be enrolled in work
| camps, similar 20 the Civilian Con-
servation Corps camps. They viii
not be eligible for work relief in
| their own communities as will older
persons.
"They must accept when enroll
ment is offered them," Miss Warner
said. ''They will not be given a Sec
ond chance"
Federal ERA regulations permit
purchase of materials and equip
ment, but the state welfare boarf
| desires to use as much as possible
of the money available for wage
and urges communities to do every
thing possible to supply materials
| and equipment.
The program embraces relief TO,
| industrial communities, as announc
ed. for rural districts and fos
stranded" population, the latte
through the transient camps.
"Take care of the industrial com
munities first" will be the first or
der of the day in the new Set-up.
| Special provisions for smaller, non
| industrial communities probably WI
follow later.
! .:......- Develop Worn Quickly -....-...
CAS- fast as projects can be dc
veloped, men will be put to work
Miss Warner declared.
"In addition to the II designated
cities. plans are being made to car
for persons in need of relief throug
the Federal Emergency Relief Ad
ministraticn, and additional plan
are being made in Washington fo
J communities especially in need o
refief," she continued.
! "Announc cament OF developm mt
in the program will be released as
rapidly as the information is OBJ
| tanned from Washington"
It was understood that CWA
headquarters in Washington had re-
leased only portion of its plan for
creating jobs and providing relief.
Under the new program. all pro-
jects must be approved by the STATE
| office of the Federal Emergency
Relief Administration, of which
Miss Warner is chief.
