WORKS RELIEF.
LAGSFOR LACK
Of PROJECTS
Ickes Says Hopkins Plan
For Direct Employment
Bars Many Undertakings
international News Service

The 100000, 900 work relief
program appeared today to be
drifting nearer and nearer to the
old CWA leaf-raking, snoW-Shovel-
ing, street-sweeping era.
Lack of projects that meet the
requirements for direct employ
ment for the 100000 employ
ables on relief rolls is the cause.
Although Congress abandoned
requirements that at least one
third of the money allotted for
any project must go for pay rolls
for direct employment, Relief Ad-
ministrator Hopkins appears to
have won out in his insistence
that only direct employment
should count in administering the
vast fund. Public Works Admin
istrator Ickes said:
"The Hopkins plan calls. for
the employment of 3,5OO,OOO
persons from the relief rolls,
on direct employment. With
$4,000, 100000 to provide work,
that means $1,140 for employ
ing one man for one year. 1t
means direct employment.
ut will make 1t very difficult
to proceed with many projects,
such as reclamation. On recla-
nation projects, the average cost
has been more than $4,000 per
man per year."
The Slum-clearance, low-rent
housing program of PWA does not
qualify under the rules and regu-
lations, Mr.. Ickes admitted, but
added this program will not be
affected.
With grants to municipalities
raised to As per cent, non-Federal
municipal projects scan qualify
under these requirements, Mr..
Ickes said, IF the average" pro.
vides sufficient direct employment.
He added:
"The average for 4,1O8 non
Federal projects completed under
the old program was 1898 per
year per man. Thus If munich.
palities provide materials from
their IS per cent Of the cost,
projects could meet the require
mentS Of direct employment
from Federal funds"
Meanwhile the CCC, which oper.
ates on a basis of approximately
81, 140 cost per man per year, ex-
poets to broaden it's 18 to % years
age requirement to bring it's quota
up to the 100000 mark.

military mobilization in Italy is

Authentic reports reveal that in

Then after the farmer has gone
through this he is given the priv
ilege of buying all or any part of
his own property back by paying
it's appraised value to the court

creditors.
Here again Mr.. Lemke had to
put in some teeth which would in
sure it's "constitutionality' and
protect the creditors. The creditor
can demand a reappraisal if he
wants at the time the farmer
wants to buy back his own prop

upon request of any secured or
unsecured creditor, the court shall
cause a reappraisal of the debtors
property and the debtor shall then
pay the difference between the ap-
praised and reappraisd value, if
any, into court, and thereupOn the
court shall, by an order, turn over

This is the bill that Mr.. Lenke

out to the farmers that this is not
relief but strangulation.
The Holiday farmers should let

workers were killed during the
first six months of this year be-
cause they took part in strikes or
other struggles for better econom-
ic and social conditions, according
to figures compiled by the national
office of the International Labor
Defense and released last week.
Seventeen of these were white
men and five we're Negroes. The
five Negroes include one who was
lynched because of his activity in
organizing share-croppers in Ala
bama. The other four Negroes
were murdered during the police
terror that swept Harlem on Mar
oh 10 and the days following, after
the Negro people there had risen
in protest against their long ac-
cumulated sufferings. Other lyn-
chings of which there have been
many during 1885 are not included
in this compilation, the LID. stat.
ed because they did not arise di-
rectly out of economic struggles.
