W.P.A. EFFICIENCY
DRIVE IS ORDERED
Hopkins lnstructs Chiefs to
Eliminate All Projects
Except Best"
BY ERNEST X. LINDLEY.

A Nationwide tightening up of the
Works Progress Administration has
been ordered by Harry L. Hopkins,
w. P. A. administrator, it was learned
yesterday. Detailed instructions now
being sent out to the key men in
w. P. A. throughout the country are
described as being suited to period
of steady operation as distinct from
the period of organization.
The new orders amount to partial
reorganization and are intended to
remove or soften some of the wide
spread criticisms of w. P. A. They
are regarded as a prelude to the ad-
ninistration's effort to maintain re-
lief on a work basis in the face OF
demands for a return to direct relief
The chief points in the tightening
I'D process were said authoritatively
to be these:
A recombing of w. p A. projects
to eliminate all but the best out OF
those which already have been ap-
proved.
Fun Days Work Required.
More intensive inspection of the
work done on projects to insure, first
that sll workers do full days work
and, second, that the work is of high
caliber.
Reduction of administrative anc
technical stats in the State w. P. A
Offices and the 80 district offices, anc
their reorganization along lines pre-
scribed by w. P. A. headquarters here
The discharge of all inefficient ad-
miniStrative officials and technical ex-
perts, regardless of their political ol
other backing.
Speeding up of payments to w. P. A
workers so pay checks will not lag
more than 70 hours behind the worE
done.
The small force of W. P. A. fielc
agents. who are directly responsible tt
Hopkins, have been given full author
ity to replace inefficient administrator:
and technical people and, it was said
have been ordered to do so under
penalty of losing their own jobs.
The field agents have been informed

PARIS. December % tP).-Premier
Pierre Laval escaped political decapi-

Two votes Of confidence were given
the worried premier statesman in one
of the most critical periods in his long

the second 304 to 262
So narrow were these margins on
O question of foreign policy that many
deputies predicted a cabinet crisis

The votes ended two days of stormy
and disorderly debate. Leftists Bit
terly assailed Laval's policies as pro-
italian and particularly his co-author-
ship of the now dead Anglo-French
peace plan.
The premier, in speech literally
filled with the danger of war with
Italy" If he were overthrown, con-
vinced the deputies to let him remain

voted next week.

Heavy reinforcements of mobile
guards on duty outside the old Bour-

HILO, Hawaii, December 28.-
Mauna Loa Volcano answered an
aerial bombing attack tonight with
a terrific blast of fire and a new ad-
vance of red-hot lava toward Hilo's
water reservoirs.
1t was as If the ancient volcano,
once worshiped by natives, were
aroused by the 20 big bombs dropped
yesterday by Army flyers seeking to
divert the lava fiow away from Hilo.
Flames, accompanied by a deafen-
ing roar, shot high in the most spec
tacular display along Mauna Loa's
historic slopes since the current erup-
ton started November 81.
One great fiery tentacle, in lava
advance of about 1K2 miles today,
reached within miles of the Hilo
reservoirs. The distance from Hilo. a
city of 10000. was conjectural. Some
said "a miles, others IL.
Later it was discovered that the
lava flowed at a sharply reduced
pace. Experts were unprepared to
say whether the bombing was re-
sponsible.

Premier Laval remained in control
of French policy in the Ethiopian
War when he squeezed through to a
double vote of confidence last night
from the Chamber of Deputies.
Thus, for the time being at least,
the French statesman will be able to
continue his role as "conciliator" In
the African war and League contact
man with Premier Mussolini.
But Laval. under fire for what his
foes called a soft policy toward Italy,
pledged himself to support the League
of Nations in the crisis to the limit.
Although Laval escaped the political
fate of Sir Samuel Hoare. who drew up
the now dead Anglo-Frei.ch plan with
him, dangerous shoals lay ahead.
Some Deputies feared possible cab
inet designations might topple the
government. Hoare, British foreign
secretary, was forced to resign because
of the peace formulas opposition.
A great battle was reported raging
on the war front.
Emperor Halle Selassie, in a tele-
gram to Adds Ababa, said the huge
northern army had engaged in its first
important clash with the Italians and
that many were killed on both sides.
The battle is now under way with
the warriors under the command of
Ras Mulugueta, minister of war.
Halle Selassie is at Dessye, field head
quarters of the Ethiopians.
An Ethiopian communique said war
riors had captured Abbi Addi, only 25
miles west of Makale, in a battle a
week ago.
