ERA May Complete
eva Local Projects.

Applications for new work projects
and for completion of CWA projects
which must be finished to avoid loss
will be accepted from local emergency
relief administrations by the state ERA
in formulating its new work program,
the administration announced
In the case of uncompleted necessary
CWA projects, the state ERA said it
would consider them only when there is
definite proof that no other funds are
locally available for the work.
The responsible governmental agency
submitting the project must pay for
non-relief labor necessary for the work,
except in very exceptional cases where
"an extremely worthwhile project of
benefit TO the community, employing a
large number of relief employees" de-
mands the employment of some nom
relief labor, the group said. Such labor
however, will be limited to seven per
cent of the federal funds requested in
the project application.
Except where drouth relief, SUBJ
sistence feed or other commodities are
distributed directly, work relief EN-
ployees will be paid in cash. At its
discretion, the county organization may
also pay in kind to individuals who
prove themselves incompetent to handle
cash wages.

new NUMBERS
ON ROADS TODAY
Highway Department to Finish
Marking in One Day-Ely
Now on No. I.

Remembering of the state highway
system Friday, May 4, will be accom-
plished in less than one day, under
plans just announced by the Highway
department.
Maintenance crews in every county
will start early Friday morning taking
down old numbers and replacing them
with new markers on each road affected
by the REMEMBERING. Nearly 10000
signs will have to be handled by the
crews to make the roadside markers
conform to the new 1884 highway maps
issued this week.
In REMEMBERING the roads, the High
way department took the 140 new
routes authorized by the 1888 legislature
and consolidated them with the II old
state routes and 16 old U. s. routes
Out of this total of 227 different
routes, the department made simpli-
fled system of 125 routes. This was
done in the interest of public con-
venience, it was said by N. w. Elsberg,
highway commissioner. In the new
system, U. s. routes will carry only
their u s. numbers, avoiding confusion
resulting when the same road carries
different state and u. s. numbers
Maps of the remembered system are
available at all highway department
offices and at most chambers of COM
merce, automobile clubs, and other road
information centers.
By looking on the map it will be
seen that Ely is now on Highway No. 1
between here and Tower and between
here and Little Marais on the North
Shore. Highway No. under the new
markings embraces what was known as
the Steel to Wheat Highway across
the northern part of the state from
Little Marais on the east through Ely,
Tower, Cook, Togo, Effie, Northome,
Redby, Redlake, Thief River Falls, War
rem and Oslo. Oslo is on the state line
between Minnesota and North Dakota.
Old No. /, formerly marked from
Lacrosse, Wisconsin, through st. Paul,
Minneapolis, Duluth, Two Harbors, and
on to Fort William and Port Arthur,
Canada, is now Highway No. 81.
In another place in this paper win
be found the new highway map as pre-
pared by the department. We have
printed the same on page and it will
be possible for you to file the same for
study and use in locating the new
numbers and to mark your route for the
trip in contemplation.
