DIRECT RELIEF IS PLANNED

st. Paul. March 5.-tR-A home-
made relief plan. entailing an expert
ment in six north central states which
ultimately may be utilized nationally,
was evolved Sunday when representa-
tives OF those commonwealth decided
to discontinue the CWA system in their
areas March Is.
Embracing distribution OF work re-
lief and direct relief on the basis of
need instead Of, as under the CWA. on
the basis of unemployment, the plan
was formulated Monday at q confer
ence between representatives Of the
state involved and T. ]. Edmonds,
Washington. representing Harry l..
Hopkins, national relief administrator.
The CWA is being gradually de-
modified until May I, when it will
have been abandoned nationally.
However. relief representatives from
Nebraska, Wisconsin. Minnesota and
Kansas decided Monday to discontinue
the CWA systems in the drought areas
only of their states March Is and to
abandon the CWA entirely throughout
all of North and South Dakota on
that date.
In Form Of Employment
From that date on, in those areas
relief will be administered directly and
in the form Of employment; employ
ment on projects to be determined
individually by the states or their
political subdivisions. Finances will
be contributed By. both the states and
the federal government.
Il the plan, in line with President
RooSevelt's reshaped relief program
as announced last week in Washing
ton, works out satisfactorily. it prob.
ably win be adopted nationally in sup.
planting the CWA, Governor Floyd B.
Olson, Minnesota, said.
To the states will be left the job
Of supplying work programs to afford
employment with the privilege Of
calling upon the federal government
for financial assistance. Although re-
lief will be given directly in the form
Of cash or grocery orders. the plan Is
designed primarily to avoid a dole
system to the extent OF giving those
who want it. the opportunity to dc
work Of public character in exchanges
for relief.
Work Not Compulsory
However, 1t will not be compulsory
for those receiving relief to work In
exchange for aid. Edmonds said.
Wages to be paid on such work
projects will be left fer each state to
decide. except that a minimum Of 80
cents an hour will be fixed. Hours Of
labor will be adjusted to permit farm.
ers to gain employment while at the
same time allowing them time for at
tending to their regular farm work.
In effect. the program will relax
existing relief rules and allow the
states to legislate their own policies
It will will also liberalize regulation.
to the extent that applicants will moi
have to prove themselves virtually
paupers before becoming eligible fol
relief.
Among those attending were Gov.
ernor Tom Berry, South Dakota; Gov.
ernor Olson, Minnesota: Judge A. M
Christianson. relief administrator fol
North Dakota, and J. H. Dance

BY SHERIFF LILLIAN HOLLEY
Written for United Press


CROWN POINT, Ind, Jan. 81
John Dillinger may be able to fight
his way out of some prisons, but he
won't break the Lake County Jail.
After all the warnings received
that John Hamilton and other Dill
linger gang members were planning
to rescue Dillinger, I was glad
enough to see him locked up in a
cell.
We have taken every precaution
now against Dillinger breaking out
or an attempt to rescue him. We
brought out the machine guns when
we heard that Dillinger and the
others had been captured.
Deputies on Guard
Every day the deputies have prac-
ticed with these machine guns since
then and I have little fear that any,
thing short of an army could take
the Jail. I can handle one of these
machine guns myself.
It's nothing new for us to have
desperate men to guard. Recently
James (Fur) Summons was held in
the Lake county Jail until he re-
ceived a life sentence. Although
Summons, somehow or other, sue
cessfully gained liberty from ILL
nois jails, he was safe here.
I'm not afraid Of any gunfire, if
it does break loose. I'm down in
the shooting gallery with the men
every day and I can handle a gun
we'll enough to hold my own in a
fight.
Promises Fair Treatment
I've been interested in guns ever
since my husband was killed by a
demented Gary farmer. was ap-
pointed sheriff in his place and I
made up my mind that sheriff
should know something about guns.
Dillinger went to sleep last night
right after he was placed in cell.
He'll get good treatment here as
long as he behaves himself.

about the jail They will not do
any special favors for Dillinger or
