Optional Arrangements for
Veterans Revealed by
Morgenthau.
BY tht Associated Press.

Optional methods for cashing
soldier bonus bonds on and after
June Is we're prescribed last night
by Secretary Morgenthau.
Under regulations promulgated by
the Treasury, veterans may present
the bonds for payment to any post
Office or send them to the Treasurer
of the United States in Washington.
Morgenthau stipulated that in either
case requests for payment, which ap-
pear on the back of the bonds, must
be properly executed in order to estab-
lish the identity of the owner.
The bonds will be dated June Is,
1885, maturing June Is, 1945, but
will be redeemable at once at the
request Of the veteran in whose name
they are registered.
BY the first method of payment
the veteran may go to any post

Of the veteran. Morgenthau sug-
geSted the use Of registered mail.
Officers witnessing veterans sig
natures will be held responsible for
positive Identification.
The regulations also provide for
payment OF bonds in cases of death
or Incompetence of the veteran. In
such cases a legal representative will
be recognized. If no legal representa-
tive exists, instructions should be OBJ
tanned from the Division Of Loans
and Currency In Washington.

Boost for PWA

Meanwhile, 1t Is understood that a confidential study of relative costs of WPA andd pWA employment per man recently made by the bud- get bureau has put PWA in Q very favorable light.
 When thc amount Oe local con. tribution and the labor indirectly employed In producing materials Is figured ln, it appears that PWA money employs far more men than indicated by figures previous. ly given the preSident-hEures prepared and furnished by WPA stAtlcians.
 One complication likely to arise fl the president sticks to his present ideas is Q protest from labor organ. izationS. Members of the building trades crafts unions. representing skilled labor, are likely to resent what sems to them an attempt to All PWA jobs with unskilled labor.
 Whatever happens, the admis- slons of lckes at his recent press conference must seem extraordinary to anyone who has assumed that Roosevelt had long since straight. ened out WPA-PWA relations and respective programs.
 
 Ickes Seems Bored
 Ickes frankly said he just didn't know what the presidents plan was, "in the absence of any direct com. munication from him"
 When someone remarked that a certain other phase of the situation didn't make q damn bit of differ. ence--" Ickes interrupted and said: That is how I feel about the whole business" His top Subordinates explained later that 1ckcs was bored. Some of them feared his remarks would appear to Roosevelt like "inSubor- dinRtion."

o. K. If It Worked

Roosevelt,s idea is that large num- bers of WPA workers should be em- ployed on WPA projects. Which would be an excellent idea if 1t worked.
 So far, the WPA program for this fiscal year hasn't even started, be- cause of confusion over presidential regulation. Current understanding Is that WPA can put money on 1t basi of 55 per cent loan and 46 per cent grant only if 45 percent of the labor on the project can be taken from the relief rolls.
 PWA would be permitted Go grant only such percentage of the projects cost as could be used for employment of relief labor.
 lckes figures this would mean that Che federal contribution would have to be cut to 10 or l6 per cent, since PWA projects re. quire skilled labor for the most part, and doubts whether municl. palltles want to put up S5 to 90 per cent of the money themselves.
 Having geared themselves Co 5S per cent and arranged bond Issues and other complicated arrange ments on that basis it would take them long time to get Che tech- nleAlltles reJlggered, even K they did.

Washington, Aug. 2e-0iven an- other term, President Roosevelt doubtless would eventually make up his mind as to what kind of PWA program he wanted.
 The battle between Mir. Ickes' boys and Mir. Hopkins boys has been going on steadily for more than a year and 1t Is importantly involv- cd in the current peculiar situation, which finds Mir. Iekes sitting on $500, ,000, 900 and not knowing what to do with 1t.
 Mfr. 1ckes Is not only confused. He ls also bored. He has had PWA pulled out from under him and then tossed back Into hts lap SO often that N isn't even funny any more.
 Tho latest mlxup Is due Go ROOsevelG's alarm over increase In theWPA rolls, which would be hard enough Co cut in Q campaign year anywoy, without Che great dr0uth coming along to add enor- mOusly to them.
 Heading toward the election, tho president realizes that the increase in relief cost and evidence that available relief funds are likely to run out long before January will not be quite the best type of propaganda for the administration.

Will history repeat itself? VIII the
Imperial Irrigation District, eventually,
acquire Southern Sierras power COM
pany lines just as it acquired in past
years the holdings of the Southern Pa
cific company? 1t is true that the Situa-
tions then and now are somewhat diff
ferent, but a settlement between the dis
trict and the railroad company looked
as hopeless then as a settlement be-
tween the power company and the dis
trict looks now.
The district will not enter into Joint
operation with the power company, as
now proposed. To agree to do SO would
mean the defeat at the next election Of
every member of the district who voted
for such a plan. 1t would, also, be
direct reversal of the boards often
stated policy that the power from the
All American canal must and shall be
generated and distributed by the people.
The present proposal, then, IS not one
the district may be expected to accept
but it does indicate that consideration of
a solution may be taken up elsewhere
than in the courts.
It is always better when men get to-
gether to discuss their problems, rather
than sniping at one another from long
range. Such consideration may lead no
where On the other hand, by lessenlng
the tension and creating less antagon-
istic spirit, it may find some way out.
The district board is dedicated to
policy for the benfit of Imperial Valley
and its future. The power company has
a large investment in the valley an in
vestment the value of which would be
minimized by cut-throat competition.
The district must pursue its policy; the
power company must protect its inves-
tors. If there is any course by which
both ends may be served, it should be
found If not-the power remains the
peoples.
