Messages of congratulation at the

OF employables have been received
from Washington officials.

am confident that the WPA officials
in Washington would provide the nee
essary funds. However I feel contld-
ent that we can supply all the jobs
which are actually needed with the
projects already approved and the
cash allotments made"
Two weeks ago it was difficult TO
get as many workers as were needed
on many WPA jobs. COan pointed
out. This he attributes partly to the
seasonal employment on farms ana IN
tobacco warehouses and to the fact
that direct relief was still being pass
ed out by the old ERA. But those who
have been notified to report for the
WPA work recently have been report
ing much more promptly. One reason
for this is that the seasonal employ
ment on the farms and in the tobac-
so warehouses and stemmeries is COM
inc to an end. Still another is that

900 already at work on WPA projects
in every county in the State, it was
announced today at the office of
George w. Coan Jr., State WPA ad-
ministrator. 1t was further indicated
that this number will probably be
expanded to provide work for as
many as 10000 persons or even more
within the near future as the result
of the approval in Washington of
number of large airport and drainage
projects which until the last day or
two have been hanging in the balance.
Already projects have been approx
ed calling the employment of more
than $4,000 workers and still others
will undoubtedly be approved later on
if the need for more work becomes
apparent, it was indicated. 1t is also
believed that another $1,000000 will

CENTER LINES ON
HIGHWAYS PLANNED
Department Experimenting
and May Adopt Plan ON
All State Roads
In the Sir Walter Hotel.
Daily Dispatch Bureau,
Try j. G.. RASK WILLIE.

Raleigh, Nov. 21-AdditiOnal expert
ments with center lines on the high
ways. as we'll as with a new automa-
tic center lining machine which will
paint a 4-inch center stripe on any
pavement at the rate of 10 miles an
hour, are being conducted by the
State Highway and Public Works
Commission. There is a growing de-
mand for continuous center lining Of
all paved highways in order to pro-
mote safety and these new expert
ments are regarded by some as indi-
eating that the highway department
is planning to center line highways on
a much larger scale than in the past.
With the exception Of a few strips
of highway which have been center
lined for experimentation, the high
way departmnt has confined the CEN
ter lining to hills and curves only.
Highway engineers and officials
spent most of yesterday observing
the operation of the new center lin
inc machine recently built and per-
fected by B. E. Sapp, of Raleigh, for
the American Highway Marker, Inc,
a local corporation organized to build
and market these machines, from Mr..
Sapp,s p&nents. The machine puts
down a black center line for about
four miles on u. S. Highway No. 1
towards Wake Forest and in the aft
ernoon put down about six miles of
yellow center lining on State Route
No. 10 from Raleigh South towards
Smithfield, which has an asphalt top.
The cener lining machine is mounted
on a truck with an attachment that
keeps the paint srapy nozzle exactly
in the center Of the highway at all
times.

When Spring is in the Air

This is the time of year when that seasonal
= disease y spring fever, runs its course. One Of its
more common NANTES, atoms i an urge to clean up
ones property, in order to get rid of winters ac-
emulation of rubbish, both indoors and out.
These individual clean up campaigns are usually
inaugurated for the purpose Of improving a home 3
physical appearance; but, whether the property
owner realizes it or not, they likewise contribute
toward fattening his pocketbook, inasmuch as they
eliminate many ordinary and Unnecessary fire haz-
ards.
The attic is one of the places in the home where
odds and ends accumulate; and II it IS also one OF the
commonest starting places for residential fires That
accumulation Of ancient newspapers; those dog
cared magazines; those old clothes which you'll
never wear again; that broken down furniture, all
offer an invitation to fire. Start your clean up
campaign by giving these east offs to the needy,
either directly or through some local charitable or
ganization, where they can give comfort and use
again. Then burn the sheer rubbish; and be sure
to accomplish that latter task on a MINDLESS day,
with the aid Of an incinerator.
Closets should be subjected to the same process.
And the chances are that your basement is in about
the same state Of disorder as your attic. Due to the
nearness of the heating plant, Easements are one OF
the most prolific sources Of fire and should be kept
free of papers, rage and improperly stored inflam-
mables.
Spring is likewise an excellent time for having
the furnace and heating equipment gone over, to
prepare it for fall. Another worthwhile job is in
s%pection of electric wiring; old, defective and sub
standard wiring starts many a fire.
Spring is here. Clean up; lest you burn up.
The Omaha guide., 1935-04-27

-.

more than that due to higher pay to employees, the
pension law, and higher commodity prices.
A short time ago the Commission handed down
its decision. The railroads are not given all they
asked for; but increases are granted on hauling
charges for a number of impor. ant products, such as
coal, iron ore, sand, etc. 1t is estimated that these
increases, which are to be in effect unil June 80,
1886, will supply the lines with $85, 100000 of new
revenue.
Whether or not the Commission has allowed
sufficient increases may be a debatable subject, but
i is encouraging to see a start made toward CIV
ing the rilroads a fair break. They have been
among the most depressed Of major industries and
their troubles did not start in 1929, as did those of
other businesses They have been in financial
trai S ever since the war, and return on their vast
investment has never been as high as five per cent.
Short sighted persons will probably denounce
even this moderate rate increase; but the greater
part of the public, along with industry at large
will see the jus, ice Of it. Railroad expenses are
still rising; the Other day they boosted employees
pay to the 1929 level, a step which will cost the
