ended June 80. flooding the ONCE of
the District building inspector with
more work than it could possibly per-
form with its limited staff. the Com
missioners are informed by Col. John
w. Oehmann. building inspector.
Addition of 10 members TO his in
spection staff was requested BY Col.
Oehmann, who said in his annual re-
port 70 Engineer Commissioner Dan /.
Sultan that his present staff could not
now make all inspections necessary TO
insure compliance with regulations.
The total cost OF ell construction
work here in the 1885 fiscal year was
sl9,273,46s. exclusive Of Federal build
ing operations. The figure includes
work done by private builders and the
District government.
During the preceding year the cor
responding total was sl0743.S68. The
1885 figure was the highest since 1881
The problem of keeping pace with
work. he explained, has been accentu-
ated by the slashes in the size Of his
staff, ordered by Congress in the two
preceding years.
He said the result has been four
fold dificulty. Inspectors have been
unable to keep up with inspections
deemed necessary to insure that build
ings are constructed in accordance
with approved plans. it has become
increasingly dif1cult to keep plan eX-
animation current with work, The
force of four fre-escape inspectors is
inadequate and the force assigned to
elevator inspection is too small TO
keep pace with It's responsibilities, he
said.

W|NANT ARRIVES
TO ASSUME POST
Chairman Of Security Board
Confers Immediately
= With Altmeyer.

John G. winant, chairman Of the
new Social Security Board. arrived in
Washington today to assume his new
post, and Immediately went into con-
sultation with Arthur J. Altmeyer,
only member of the board who has
been in this city since the appoint
ments were announced.
Vincent M. Miles, third member of
the new administrative unit. Is ex-
pected to reach Washington some time
today.
Winant declared this morning that
he had no comment to make on the
tasks facing the board until he has
time to confer with his associates and
to consider plans already tentatively
made. A press conference will be held,
he said, as soon as some definite ideas
are formulated
Director Choice Problem.
One Of the first problems facing the
new board is that of selecting an ex-
ecutive director.
temporary lack OF administrative
funds, the board and the skeleton per-
sonnel thus far gathered are occupy
ing temporary space in the Labor De-
partment Building. Eventually the
board may be permanently located in
the quarters Of the old National Labor
Relations Board on the sixth floor OF
the Labor Building. with a new labor
relations unit being moved elsewhere
Meanwhile, Winant Is sharing Alt
meyers Office. where the latter served
as Second Assistant Secretary of Labor
An immense volume Of mail, much OF
it from job seekers. was awaiting the
chairman on his arrival today.
Temporarily without Funds.
With formulation Of policy for the
national social security program thus
imminent, officials Of the District Un-
employment Compensation Board de-
clsred that they would watch closely
for guidance in setting up the local
organization.
Like the national body, they are
temporarily without administrative
funds as result Of the death of the
deficiency appropriation bill in the
closing days of Congress.
John A. Marshall, executive d.
rector of the local board, said this
morning he expects to spend the i'm
mediate future in conferring with
representatives of labor and business
in the District for suggestions as to
procedure. On the basis Of these, the
requirements Of the local act and the
advice Of national officials he said he
would discuss policy of the District
board with board members next Tues
day.
Principal problems, he said, would
be establishment Of a simple and ef-
fective method of tax collection fol
the District system. The board is
empowered to levy and collect the
employer taxes starting at l per cent
next year and increasing to 3 pei
cent in the third year.
A comparable problem will be that
Of registering all employees in the Dis
trict and keeping record Of their
length of employment and their wages
Until administrative funds are
available Marshall will continue TO use
quarters OF the District Insurance
Commissioner in the Motor Vehicle
Building. With the necessary organi-
Zation likely to reach as many as 100
persons, larger quarters will be neces-
sary.

MOSES HITS W.P.A.
POLICY STUPID
Condemns Johnson Regime
for "Dumping Buns" on
Park System.
By the Associated Press.

NEW YORK. September lin a
new fiery outburst Parks Commis-
sioner Robert Moses yesterday charged
Gen. Hugh S. JohnSon's Federal
Works Progress Administration with
stupid. arbitrary and arrogant ac-
ton" in dumping II 900 unsupervised
w. P. A. workers on park department
projects.
LAS a result" Moses said. ''hun-
dreds Of men have been lying around
in the parks doing absolutely nothing
except jeering at workers, shooting
craps. drinking and generally Great
ing a nuisance"
The flare-up Of the smoldering relief
controversy between Moses and john
son only high lighted the troubles ex-
perienced by the w. P. A. administra-
tor in his shift of $4,000 men from
home relief to Federal jobs.
Workers Ask Back Pay.
Late today 400 relief workers de-
scended upon Johnson's ONCE de-
msnding pay which they claimed was
due them as far back as July.
Ignoring talk Of walkouts Gen
johnson said the pay roll machinery
was functioning satisfactorily and that
there was no delay in distribution Of
w. p A. checks.
The general also retorted TO Moses
earlier threat to fire outright 1000
'Bovery buns" and police court char
acters which he said had been sent
him for park work
Federal money makes no distinc-
ton as 10 class he snapped We
don't call them rin-raff. We call them
unemployed
Supervisors Held Few.
Instead of the necessary 100 work
supervisors, Moses said, only II had
been provided.
In spite of the refusal of the park
| department to take more men, hun
| dreds of additional men were sent
TO the parks without any notification
to the park department" he declared.
When these men were rejected by
park executives the pay roll clerks and
other employees of the w. P. A. stan,
over whom the park department mas
no control, ordered the men to STAY
in the parks and told them they would
be paid even though they did not
work"
Moses reiterated his assertion that
Migrants" and buns" had been sent
him as workers.

1000 P. w. A. projects already re-
jected by Harry L. Hopkins, work
progress administrator.
In making public his long g-stand-
ing differences with Hopkins, 1ckes
said yesterday the President tele-
phoned him on Monday night and
asked him to come to Hyde Park.
Charles West, Undersecretary of the
Interior and q trusted adviser OF the
President. had visited the President
on Monday. following a week end
visit by Hopkins.
Ickes has succeeded in salvaging
the $3.50 900. 900 low-cost housing pro-
gram and $10O.000000 for reclama-
ton projects from Hopkins insistence
on small. flexible and inexpensive
projects.
In addition he appealed TO the
President to oppose and finally force
an acceptable compromise on an
amendment to the work-relief pro-
gram, which he contended would have
ruled out many p. w. A. projects.
NO sigh VI ylCIOA4IB III VIC PlSoCllI
controversy however, came from Hop
kins yesterday. He did say he had
too much work TO do" to quarrel
with Ickes-adding that he planned
to go to Hyde Park after the Interior
Secretary's visit.
Ickes is concerned with removing
two related dangers to his projects:
One, the series of deadlines fixed for the
immediate start of the $4,0o0,0O0, 900
program; two, Hopkins inSistence that
the cost of materials be held down,
and that projects be such as to pro-
vide for the people on relief and no
others, in particular locality.
The latter was the cause for re-
lection of the 1000 projects. while
the final meeting of the Work Relief
Allotment Committee. scheduled for
September II. left little chance for
States and communities TO revise their
applications. Ickes' housing division
also will have trouble acquiring sites.
Coincidentally with his departure.
Ickes made public a report on his
housing program showing the Govern
ment owned % sites and had so others
under option. He added that options
are being taken on 81 other tracts.
