RWA REPLACES CWA
in COUNTY; QUOTA
DEPENDS ON NEEDS
Relief Worker to Study Con-
ditiOns of Applicants, Make
Budgets for Actual Needs
PROGRAM STARTS FRIDAY
Men to be Allowed to Earn Only
Amount of Individual
Budgets in Future

The CWA program will be definite
~ ended in Redwood county Friday,
March 16, and new program, the
RWA which is similar in many de-
tails, will take its place.
This fact was made known to Red
wood county CWA officials in instruc-
tons received Wednesday. The new
letters stand for relief work admin
istration and the program includes
all counties in the drouth area In
whole or in part.
The new program differs in two i'm
portant ways from the old. Eligibil-
ity for employment under the new
plan is determined entirely on the
basis of relief needs, which are to be
established by impartial home invest
igation rather than on employment
preferences. The RWA is entirely a
relief program while the CWA was
actual employment.
Working hours under the new plan
will be determined on the basis of
the individuals relief budget, estab-
lished by the county relief worker.
Men will be permitted to work only
long enough to earn the amount of
their budgets. In no case will persons
be allowed to work more than 80
hours per week or eight hours per
day.
No definite quota will be establish
ed, the amount spent depending on
the number in need Of relief. The Of
ficers who handled CWA work will
also supervise and direct the relief
work. Renville, Yellow Medicine and
Lyon counties are other nearby coun-
ties under the new schedule.
G. R. Engeman, Redwood county
manager of the Unemployment serv-
ice, issued the following statement
this week, of interest to both unem-
ployed and employers:
There is still some misunderstand-
ing in regard to re-registering. Any
person who is not now employed on
CWA and who has not called or writ
ten this office should do so at once.
The purpose of re-registering is that
undoubtedly a number of persons
have left the county and some have
taken other employment and would
not consider work of any kind. Re-
registering will enable US to get our
file up to date and eliminate any dead
cards.
There also are a number of per-
sons who have not given us sufficient
information. They may be skilled in
some certain lines but from the in
formation on their cards would be
placed as a common laborer. If Red
wood county is unable to furnish
needed skill labor it is necessary that
they be sent in from other counties.
If the registration cards are not COM
plete this might happen when we
have skilled laborers improperly
classified.
"We still wish to emphasize the
fact that we furnish help to private
employers free of charge and urge
the use of our service. We have a
large number of farm hands regist-
cred who are seeking employment.

EXPORT minimum
Sui. Committee Seeks to Draw
Up Plan for Submission
TO Commission

Rome, April 12.-(R-The world
wheat advisory commission entered
Thursday upon the most difficult
phase Of its meetings as q sub-com-
mittee sought to draw up . plan for
. minimum export price. The plan
will be submitted to the whole CON-
mission.
The subcommittee worked until
late Wednesday night and then again
Thursday morning. Since 1t was un-
able to complete its work on schedule,
the committee as whole postponed
the session it was to have held Thurs
day morning.
The subcommittee has encountered
many strongly contrasting ideas In
reference to what minimum prices
should be fixed and the method Of
fixing them. Only the most friendly
cooperation between the delegates has
enabled the body to agree on the few
points which have been found accept
able.
While the subcommittee worked,
most delegates Wednesday took the
day off and went to see Italy's new
soldier land settlements, rising from
the former wastes Of the Pontine
marshes.
Only 10 miles along the Appial1
Way beyond the ruins Of the palaces
Of the Caesars lie the swampS, MAS
mas Of malaria, which engineers
sought vainly since the days Of the
Roman empire to drain. Rapidly the
water is seeping from them.
Littoria, the first soldier township
opened, has q population OF $4,000
persons.
When they are complete the three
townships win contain 5000 farm
holdings Of Is to 70 acres each, &C
cording to the quality Of the land.
The soldier settler starts to farm
on half-share basis. Half the pro.
ceeds he keeps. The. other half goes
to the veterans organization under
control Of the government until his
loan is repaid. After that he can
secure freehold Of the property un-
der q system Of l5-year purchase.

410 IN STAKES

Bowling like a veteran star, Lee
Sieman, of Stanton Cleaners,
swept to victory in the second an
nual Temple Minor League Sweep
stakes over a field of At with a
final furry of strikes and spares
which gave him 40, the first 400"
in his life. He did not need the
12-pin handicap, which made his
grand total, 422. Sieman's three
games only varied by three pins.
Aubrey Hayden ran into a series Of
splits in his second game, after
taking a long lead in the first, but
came back with $50, which gave
him 393 plus an SPIN handicap
for a 4O1 and second money.
Martin Murphy, of Kogod-Dubb,
grabbed third money with a 374
set, one pin better than Robert
Tyler, of Martin and Boyd. Will
liam Gingell finished fifth.
Roy Greer collected high game
prize with final 145 game.

And thus we find both Coch-

of a once famous battery, com.

season more or less hors du

does not in any way alter
the figures on those checks we
were speaking about.

person he's been able to get out
so far this spring is himself.
Only a few days back he es-

such, and they touched him off
for a tidy total of nine runs in
a single frame.

And if Lew Fonseca hadn't

Which still doesn't alter the
indubitable fact that whereas

Mr.. Mack has their check.
I am sure that the rest of you

forget-there we're tears in his
eyes when he did it.
