PUBLIC WORKS LAG

On April 8, Congress, at the re-
quest of the President, passed bill
appropriating $4,SSO,0O0,000 for
work relief
At that time, Mr.. Roosevelt stated
that by July l all the nations un-
employed who were able to work,
would have federal jobs, and would
be off the local relief rolls.
July / came and passed. More
than 100000, 900 had been approx
ed for 474 projects, yet not single
man had been put to work.
The reason is two-fold: First, and
most important, the works program
is supposed to employ 100000 men
for one year If that is done, the
cost per worker, including materials,
must be held down to the very low
figure of $1,143.
Second, there has been constant
disagreement between Secretary of
the Interior Ickes and Relief Admin
istrator Hopkins. Mr.. Ickes is the
head of the Public Works Admins
tration, and Mr.. Hopkins guides the
Works Progress Administration. The
two bureaus Inevitably overlap
and both executives claim jurisdic-
ton over the same projects.
Mr.. Ickes is of the opinion that re-
lief money should be spent for pro-
jects of permanent benefit-grade-
crossing elimination, river and har-
Dor developments, road work, etc.
Mr.. Hopkins, on the other hand, is
concerned only with putting men to
work, and he knows that the adop-
ton of projects in which material
costs are high will defeat that pur-
pose. AS result, he favors projects
which require only labor, and de-
mand few or no materials-wood-
land clearance, malaria control, re-
pairs TO public buildings, ETC. The
two men are so diametriaccally OPP
no compromise was possible.
A fortnight ago the President step
ped in and provided a partial settle
ment to the problem. He decided
the question of jurisdiction by out
lining which projects are to be con-
trolled by Mr.. Hopkins, which by Mr..
Ickes. Result: All projects involv-
ing the expenditure of less than $25,-
900 are to be handled by Mr.. Hop
kins; all those costing more, by Mr..
Ickes. For example: If the Presi-
dent approves the building of canal,
Mr. Ickes will handle tiff he says
yes to ditch, it will be done by Mr..
Hopkins. Mr.. Ickes will build high
ways, while Mr.. Hopkins builds
trails. Mr. Ickes will erect public
buildings, and Mr.. Hopkins will
landscape the grounds surrounding
them. And so it goes.
The works relief program is at las.
swinging into actual operation-and
the question that remains to be
answered is whether or not it can
find useful and productive jobs for
the 100000 heads af families who
are still out of work.-Industrial
Review.

The legislative situation

The legislative situation is con-
fused, chaotic. Roosevelt control
of Congress is not SO certain as it
once was-as the House vote on the
Utilities Act dramatically proved.
In spite of talk abut adjournment,
the chance seems small that Con-
gressmen will be able to take the
train home before September. Only
a remarkable and unlooked-for burst
of speed could bring about an August
adjournment

NOBODY minds getting up on
IN fine Spring morning-no-
body but those of us who
have been out late the fine Spring
night before. But since we have a
way of staying out these fine
Spring nights, why not use lit
tie culinary persuasion? Here is
a breakfast that smells so good
in the making that only a dodder-
head could lie abed.
And even a dodderhead could
remain inert only until the coffee
began to percolate. If it is vacuum
packed coffee, it smells like a
million dollars because the flavor
is fresh and the result, though In
expensive. il priceless. indeed.

state or federal agencies to assume
all of the burden of Imperial coun-
ty merely because the greater part
has voluntarily been assumed. Lewis
agreed, however, with the county
committee to the working out of a
plan whereby if the board of super
visors can definitely show persons
to be employable that his organiza-
ton will find method of paying
work relief benefits.
After considerable discussion with
the committee Lewis offered the
following plan:
Assuming the attitude of the
supervisors to be conscientious as
to the employability of groups OF
indigentS whom they decline to pro-
vide minimum relief for, and as
suming further that these persons
are in fact employable, 1 believe
can assure this body that We will
agree to the following undertaking
/. Board of supervisors to devel-
op, sponsor, and be legally liable
for projects to employ persons
dropped by SERA as unemployable
and whom the board Of supervisors
regard as employable.
2. That they agree to be respon-
sible for medical aid and hospital
ization for such persons and their
families, and will agree to assume
liability for persons injured during
the course of such projects.
3. That the board of supervisors
will provide the necessary material
equipment, and supervision for the
operation of such projects, and
that before the commencement OF
such projects they shall be sub
mitted through regular channels
and be approved in the regular
manner.

ARIZONA ASKS
FEDERAL LOAN
FOR PROJECT

PHOENIX, Ariz., July &c. UP)-
Application for a $35000,000 feder-
al Works Progress loan to con-
struct a Colorado river irrigation
system which would irrigate 6000,-
900 acres of land in Arizona, was
filed with WPA headquarters today
by Fred T. Golfer, as trustee.
Under Golfers proposal, the Col
orado river would be damned at
Glen Canyon, about four miles
north of Lees Ferry, Ariz., and the
water diverted from a lower dam
by a 68-mile tunnel to the head of
the williams river, from where it
would be distributed through an
elaborate system of canals and lat
erals.
AS an alternative, he suggested
diversion of Colorado waite r
through a 117-mile tunnel from the
Glen canyon site to the Verde ri
yer near Jerome, thence south
through the Verde, Salt and Gila
valleN, the same areas as would
be served by the other proposed
system.
In his application, Golfer esti-
mated sale of power generated by
either system would pay the entire
cost of th, project over a period of
years. He declared the potential
value of such power would approx
innate $18,0O0,O00,O00
Golfer, former state senator and
leader in a 17-year fight to develop
central and southern Arizona with
Colorado river water, insisted con-
struction of such a project would
not take from California or any
other Colorado river state water to
which it was entitled. He predicted
the proposed development would
give the lower Colorado area an
even greater amount of water than
it now receives, and that Yuma,
Ariz., eventually would become an
important seaport with access to
the Gulf of Lower California.

MINUTE
REPR|EVE FOR
DOOMED MAN

SAN QUENTIN PRISON, Calf,
July 26. (U.P)-Just as in the films
10-year-old Joe Latona saw at his
neighborhood movie theatre, the
man about to be hanged was saved
from the gallows today by inter-
Vention of the governor.
Today'S drama, however, was
more than a motion picture thriller
involving the celluloid heroes and
pretended death.
1t involved fearful Joe, his faith
er, Ellis j. Latona, 43, and Joe's
mother.
And it was actual death-execu-
ton for the murder of Jose Flores,
former Arizona convict-which was
averted when Gov. Frank F. Mer-
riam granted Latona a reprieve I'M
til August 80.
Latona, convicted in Los Angeles
of numbering Flores, then at
tempting to pass the body as that
of his brother in an effort to COL
lect $500 insurance, was to have
been hanged at 10 a. m. this morn
ing.
Joe and his mother, Mrs. jose
phine Latona, visited the father
and husband for what they feared
might be the last time Wednesday
afternoon.
Joe said he was sure the COVER
nor would ntervene-would say:
stop the hanging" just in the
nick of time as Joe had seen 1t
happen in the films.
The boys confidence was trans
mitted in a measure to his father,
who had awaited death in the
prisons condemned row for two
years.
"I went to see Governor Mer-
riam with my mother" Joe told
prison guards. I'VE asked him
not to let them hang my daddy,
and I've just kept thinking and
thinking that the governor will
save him."
From Los Angeles, Governor
Merriam issued a reprieve at least
until August 30.

LEWIS ASKS SUPERVISORS tn
SPONSOR PROJECTS FOR MEN
TAKEN OFF Of RELIEF ROLLS
Conference With Emergency Relief Com
mttee Results In Passage Of Resolution
Designed To End argument Over Defini-
ton of What Constitutes "Unemployable"

In an highly interesting meeting
of the Imperial county emergency
relief committee with Jack Sterrett,
retiring director, Homer Miller, in
coming director, and M. H. Lewis,
Southern California representative
of SERA, the matter of unemploy-
ables was thoroughly aired last
night at SERA headquarters.
The committee and the SERA ex-
ecutiveS were extremely anxious to
develop a plan fair to the COM
munity to bring to an end the dis
tress occasioned by the unemploy
ables being dropped from the SERA
rolls and a refusal of the county
welfare department and the board
OF supervisors TO assume RESPONSE
bility. The discussion was precip-
itated by Frank Hewitt, acting
chairman of the committee, who
stated that the contention appears
TO be definition of unemployabil-
ity and the reluctance on the part
of the supervisors to increase the
tax rate to care for this group.
Lewis reminded the board that his
organization had spetn $640,000 on
maintaining the irrigation canals
st a tremendous saving to the tax
payers of the district and of the
county; that at this time he had
suggested about one-tenth of this
sum to be provided by the county
to be expended under their direc-
, tion for the relief of distress-tnat
group known as unemployables.
Lewis said, THE taxpayers should
probably be advised that their
pockets have been safe-guarded
tsEfold over ana above the amount
suggested for this years eXpendi-
ture for additional burden to be
assumed by county department"
Lewis further said that the state
law under which Welfare depart
ments are operated, distinctly
makes counties responsible for all
types of INDECENT relief whether
employable or unemployable, and
because some organization comes
into the community and assumes
80 per cent of the burden, there is
no liability in law or in decency to
insist that such organization as
sune the whole load.
Quotes State Law
Lewis quoted an act of the 1899
legislature, Chapter 76l, of the pc
liticai code, Every county. shall aid
and relieve all able bodied INDECENT
persons, and those incapacitated by
age, disease or accident when resi-
ident of the county and not other
wise supported"
Lewis pointed out that the act
provides the obligation of the coun-
ty to care for all types of distress,
including employability and unem-
ployability, and that definitions of
employability and unemployability
are academic gestures and cannot

WIDOW HELD
FOR Staying
HER HUSBAND

NEW YORK, July 26. tUR)-The
widow of musician who died last
month of apparently natural causes
was held today with her admitted
sweetheart on charges of using ar
senic to end love triangle and
collect $4,000 insurance.
The accused woman is Mrs. Olga
Cirina, black haired 35-year-old
housewife. The man is John Par
edes, 40, jeweler of considerable
wealth. Police said he lent money
to Mrs. Cirina and eXacted worth
less checks as receipts, to force her
to the deed of which she is ac-
cused.
Cirina, "a violinist of such talent
that he was able to buy an $4,000
house, lost regular employment two
years ago. He fought in every way
possible to keep his home and
maintain the position to which his
wife and daughter, Santina, g. were
accustomed. He took violin pupils,
Paredes among them, and played
