FERA employees
SIGN AGREEMENT
In new PROGRAM
RELATIVE TO RECEIVING
MONEY FOR WORK COM
MENSURATE WITH BULGE
TARY NEEDS AS STATED

Beginning with yesterday. EN-
ployes on FERA projects are to
sign an escrow agreement rela-
tive to the employee receiving mon
les for his work commensurate
with the budgetary needs as shown
in his signed statement.
The agreement reads: "In par
tial consideration for the employ
ment to be given to me by the
Florida Emergency Relief Admin
iStration to credit to my account
all amounts by which my weekly
budget, as approved by the Flor
ida Emergency Relief Administra-
ton Regional Administrator, is ex-
ceeded by my weekly earnings.
1T is understood that my week
ly budget requirements will be
paid me every week until the bal
ance in my account is exhaus-
ted"
Adverse Comment
This method of pay appears to
be causing much adverse comment,
and it was learned that much dis
satisfaction may arise when it be-
comes effective. The schedule
began yesterday.
The Citizen has been asked by
a number of people what this
means, and in reply gives the fol.
| lowing explanation:
A skilled worker has declared
his bugetary needs to be $7.5C
! weekly but his earning capacity is
/ $50 each week. At the end OF
four weeks he will have earned
$3.50 which is 500 in excess of hi!
budgetary needs for the period.
| In Line With Needs
For each of the four week,
worked he will receive paymen
in accordance with his declared
needs which will be $3.50 or. So
for the four weeks.
During the ensuing ~ weeks h,
will not work but will draw from
the disbursing officer $3.50 eacl
week and at the end of that tim,
he will have been paid the $50.
! However, there is nothing t.
prevent his working at some othe
employment during the IL week
that he is denied work on FERA
! projects.
AS explained to The Glitter
FERA work is given for the pur
pose of the worker securing suffi
! cient funds for the needs of him
self and family. When thos'
means are provided the end aimee
) at has been attained.

BIZ THFON WRIGHT
United Press Staff Correspondent

NEW YORK, Dec. 29.-(UP),
GAY blades of Broadway may as
well prepare to unbuckle their
wallets and dig out plenty of
what it takes, because New Years
eve is going to be the most ex-
pensive since the year l b. D.
before depression.
A United Press canvass OF
caravanseraiS Of the metropolis
today revealed that hOop-la will
cost a young man in excess of
$50 for himself and his girl
friend, if he goes anywhere at
all. And the chances are all he
will get for that is a sandwich.
II was formerly the custom to
introduce beverages into the
places of Joy on the hip or under
the girl friends coat, but that
has changed. You now call Karl,
the headwaiter, and he retails it
off the bar at four-bits a guzzle
and up. 4,
By the time you and the girl
friend have taken two or three
portions of joy internally, the
check has mounted halfway to
three figures, and, since by that
time you may not care, it is al
most a certainty it will reach 3
digits before you are ready to
ask for your coat and hat.
An evening at the Waldorf-As-
toria starts off with $24 a couple
in the Empire room or roof gar,
