man who coined that NAME" the
official commented).
They will have more continuous
employment, in many instances
working full time.
The 100000 work relief figure
will not be constant. The relief load
rises to a peak in the late winter,
and dips to a valley in the late sum-
mer. The program may provide
jobs for $500. 900 when IL is put in
operation July /, and for 4.500.0 900
by next March. the official said.
The word here is that at least
ninety per cent Of the workers on

lief rolls to do work in which they
are best skilled. Perhaps 10 per
cent win be hired from outside re-
lief rolls in supervisory capacities.

WASHINGTON, April rs. R-
An administration official dropped
some hints Friday on what the man
on relief may expect from the
1880. 000, 900 worksrelief drive Pres
ident Roosevelt Is organizing.
The official refused to be quoted
by name. saying he didn't want to
stick my neck up - yet" But he
did depart somewhat from the ac-
cepted capital custom these days Of
diSmissing inquiries with. but the
president hasn't announced his
policy on that yet"
The hints:
There are now 2.5O0.000 families
doing work, Of n sort or another
for the federal relief they get. The
aim is to provide these. and thous-
ands more to be taken off the
dole" with work relief In the new
drive.
They will be paid, II was said, an
average" wage Of $50 a month. In
some southern sections where the
cost Of living and prevailing wages
are called lower. they may get as
little as $50 a month. In New York
they get 500 from some types Of
activity. Wages will depend upon
the geographic location Of the pro-
jet, the type OF skill required, and
the wage rates prevailing in private
lines.
They will receive more money than
they are getting now, but not SO
much as private industry is paying,
except in some scattered instances
where, the official said. private in
dustry isn't paying a Giving wage"
They win be employed on pro-
jects officially described as Of a
higher type than some in the past.

house.
For months, many house men,

passing controversial administration
bills first-and without amend
nIents. They complained, for ms
lance. that after the house had
passed the work-relief bill, the sem
ate debated IL a long time ana
made changes, thereby gaining some
prestige in the eyes OF those who
wanted to see the changes made.
Friday, however. administration
supporters, who asked that their
names not be published, said Mr.
Roosevelt had no objection TO a re-
verSal OF that procedure, under the
reversed plan, the senate would act
first OH the bill extending the life
Of NRA, and the house could then
rewrite the measure. That under

was IN store. Friday the senate
