RELIEF PROJECTS
WILL START TODAY
State and City Officials to
Get Formal Blanks for
Application.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
State and municipal officials who
have been trying for several weeks to
start proposed projects through the
Governments work-relief mill were
promised an opportunity to do so
today.
officials predicted that formal ap-
plication blanks would be available
before nightfall at the Offices of the
National Emergency Council. Later.
they said, will be obtainable from
members Of Congress and State d.
rectors of Emergency Council.
1t was predicted in official circles
that issuance of these forms will touch
off a $4,000 100000 stream of appli-
cations. That would be 10 times the
amount appropriated for work-relief.
Official Blanks Must Be Used.
Frank C. Walker, head of the Emer-
gency Council and one OF the big
three" of the work-relief spending
machine, ruled that all proposed
projects-even 500 100000 Of public
works already approved by p. w. A
must be submitted to him on the
official application blanks.
Assistants to Walker asserted. how
ever, that P. w. A. and Relief Admin
istration projects on which engineer
ing and estimates have been COM
pleted probably will be passed on to
the powerful Allotment Committee
and the President ahead of other pro-
pOsalS.
Belief was expressed by one high
official that fundamental decisions on
administration of the works program
still must be reached.
Foremost of the questions remain
ing to be settled, this official said, Is
the extent to which workers not on
relief rolls will be used.
Limited to Relief Rolls.
Harry L. Hopkins, head of the Re-
lief Administration and director OF
the Progress Division created to push
work relief, recently laid down the
general rule that person not on re-
lief would not be given a job even
though his resources might be ex-
hausted. He said, however, that it
might be necessary to go outside the
ranks of those on relief to obtain
some skilled workers.
IF only relief labor can be used"
said the official, commenting privately
today, cit will be difficult to fit
projects in the 800 different work re-
lief areas to the exact supply Of brick
layers, carpenters and the other types
of workmen available"
It was said that wages to be paid in
the different areas have not yet been
but that the average will
be more than $50 a month. That was
the figure mentioned BY officials while
the relief bill was in Congress.
Bonds o. X. as Collateral.
Secretary Ickes, meanwhile, was
said to be considering q possibility
that bonds secured only by project
revenues-which would make possible
loans to many cities which have ex-
hausted their tax-secured borrowing
capacity-could be used as p. w. A.
collateral.
Officials said most of the present
activities will be retained until the
new program gets into full swing,
while the relief administration planned
to continue to supply work for those
not included in the main activity.
A possibility was seen in some quar-
tiers that State relief administrations
would be completely federalized on
July l, although Hopkins said no exact
plans had been made.
