Mississippi valley and its rivers had
been abandoned. 1t will be recalled
that the National Resources board
had recommended extensive i'm
provements to be carried out from
public works funds in the hands of
the public works administrator.
These involve vast sums. Now, it
is made to appear that the PWA
and the administration have in
mind some restraint on expenditures
of that character and that hereafter
gigantic allotments of a public
works or improvement character
may be expected to be fewer in
number. ..z5 E-. {
The result of this will be, of
course, to hold in the treasury some
of the total of the $4,000, 000, OOO

Works-Relief Plans Drag
I have reported to you previously
how slowly the administration plans
for spending the 3 $5,00O,0O0, 600
works-relief fund were progressing
In connection with the Hopkins an
nouncement on relief and the Presi-
dents relief survey order, it was
disclosed that only approximately
fifteen thousand persons have been
given jobs since the money was
made available. This figure does not
include the additional list of re-
cruits for the Civilian Conservation
corps whose numbers have grown
from 100000 to 4O3 900. It will be
recalled that provision was made
in the $5,OOO,OOO,OOO appropriation
resolution for an increase of the
CCC from 100000 to 100000. Thus
in two months, the CCC has haG
only about one-third of the total
increase which was expected
Frankly, CCC enlistments have been
so disappointing that the respon-
sible authorities have changed the
age limit in order to permit the
maximum of entries into that serv-
ice. Those in a position to know anc
who will speak candidly about con-
ditions entertain some fear that the
total ever will approach the 60O,-
600 to which enlistments are re-
stricted.
