BULLETIN.

Drastic slashes in relief disburse-
mentS to persons on the District
relief rolls were ordered today by
Commissioner Allen, effective No
Vember Is. in the face of plans of
the Federal Government to shut
down on direct relief grants. Ap-
proximately 5000 cases not yet
brought into the work-relief pro-
gram face large cuts.
Commissioner George E. Allen to.
day conferred with his assistants To
determine what can be done to meet
a crisis" precipitated by an order
from Federal Relief Administrator
Hopkins that no additional persons
may be placed on the Federal dole
here, effective yesterday.
The injunction was contained in a
telegram received last night and was
a sequel to general understanding
given earlier in the week. when Hop.
kins paid a final grant of s250.000 Ia
the District for general relief pur-
poses in November.
The first Interpretation of the orr
der was that if the District allowed
any additional needy families to 60
on the relief roll it would have to
take care Of them without aid from
the Federal Government.
For November operations Allen had
requested grant of $4,000 and got
$3.50, 900. Apparently the assumption
was that the allotment could be cut
down because Of the transfer of per-
sons from direct relief TO the work@
relief program. To date $500 have
been transferred, but there are about
$500 others awaiting transfer and
Allen said this is contingent upon
Federal approval Of other pending
work projects. The Hopkins telegram
reads:
You are hereby instructed to ace
cept no person for employment under
the works program who was not on
the relief rolls prior to November l,
1885. This order does not affect au.
thority given under executive order
No. 7046 for employment of not to
exceed 10 per cent non-relief workers,
nor does it affect specific exemptions
heretofore granted under paragraph
c, part 3, executive order 7046."
5000 at Work Here.
At w. P. A. headquarters today Ad.
ministrator Hopkins announced s,2sa
persons at work on relief jobs in the
District of Columbia. This indicated
a sharp increase in the last few days
since Commissioner Allen on Thurs.
day had reported only $500 on worl
relief. During the seven days since
his last report on national relief EN-.
ployment Hopkins revealed a gain Of
121,715 jobs to account for a total
Of 1.543.18 at work, employed under
the works program.
This leaves Hopkins a remainder Of
1,956,8l5 jobs to fill by November II
if the works program is to reach it'd
goal of 3,500,o0o jobs by December i
