Dole MONEY
Is GONE But
AID CONTINUES
New Deal AS Power
To Go to Other
Funds to Keep On
Helping Needy

WASHINGTON, Nov. 81. -R-
The money congress earmarked for
the dole is all gone. but the New
Deal has power to continue such
relief payments q while longer out
Of other funds.
Official figures disclosed Thurs
Gay that out Of $4.880, 000, 1000 ap-
p~ropriated last session for work.
and-relief $889, 000, 900 already has
been allotted to direct relief Cpop-
ularly known as the dole. This is
100000 more than congress set
aside for the purpose.
Has Wide Powers
However, the Roosevelt admins
tration does not have to observe
the congressional earmarking strict
". II has wide powers to shift funds
from one category TO another.
With grants still to be made to p
states before the dole is due to end
December /, the figures raised these
questions:
Will there be further dipping into
the $4,000, 5000 works fund for
direct relief, making that much less
for jobs?
II SO. will the remaining works
funds be sufficient to carry out the
plan TO give 3,500,000 persons jobs
by the end Of this month at pay
conforming TO existing work relief
wages?
Will direct aid be continued after
the December / deadline If state
and local authorities plead insult
ficient funds to take ove the bur-
den?
There wa no definite answer at
relief headquarters Thursday, but
inquirers we're given a hint when
officials referred to recent state
ments by President Roosevelt and
Harry L. Hopkins, relief chief.
The president told a mayors con-
ference the government does not
propose to let people Starve-"
The city fathers applauded this
statement, apparently interpreting
It as indicating further federal aid
II the situation required.
Up to Congress
Hopkins said: The program
depends entirely on what action
congress will take. / am not going
30 indicate an opinion about the
funds that will be required or the
number OF people that will need
benefits. but / am sure Of one thing,
that the government and the states
and cities have put their hand to
this pillow and that 1t is never again
going to be taken away"
Latest figures on the works funds,
released Thursday, showed the pres
ident had approved projects valued
at 1884 ,978289. But this is a flex-
ible list from which state admin
iStrators may select the mes they
desire. 1t does not mean all Of these
projects will be carried out.
