Tomorrow, according to Root,
comfortable temperatures will pre-
vail, and bring relief to thousands

He and other intimates of the trou-

'W..P. A. WORKERS
HINT D. c. MARCH
Indication Spending Will
Start Again Fails to
Satisfy Them.
By the Associated Press.

An administration hint that w p A.
spending will be resumed at
50 .0O0. .000, ,000-a-year rate early next
year failed yesterday to satisfy COM
mittee of relief workers. which called
for strikes and a march upon WASH
ington, if necessary. to stop current
cuts in w. P A. rolls
Aubrey Williams, deputy Works
Progress administrator, told the COM
mittee the valid level at which w.
p. A. activities should be maintained
was the sl65 900, 900 level recorded in
November This would be at the rate
of approximately $4,000. .000, 900 a year.
But until the new Congress votes
more money. Williams contended. the
recently ordered removal Of 425. 900
persons from the work relief rolls is
a necessity.
Unconvinced that the reduction is
a temporary matter, the committee,
which said it represented white col
lar" relief workers in nine cities, ex-
pressed belief the layoffs represent
the beginning OF the liquidation OF
w. p A."
Chamber Sees $50 Growth.
At the same time the United States
Chamber Of Commerce asserted in its
Washington Review that expendi-
lures for direct unemployment relief
for the first five months Of 1896 were
approximately IS per cent in excess
of those for the same period last year.
Williams promptly retorted to this,
describing the statistics as very mis-
leading He said:
Actually. direct relief expenditures
in 1896 have been substantially lower
than in 1895. This reduction in direct
relief was caused by the change in re-
lief policies of the Federal Govern
ment, which involved substitution
of a program of useful work projects
for the direct relief program in ef-
feet during the first part of 1885"
In a statement to reporters the
Relief Workers Committee added:
This whole policy of w. P. A. repre-
sents. in our opinion, betrayal Of the
promises made to the American people
before November 3. Apparently the
policy is not now We have only begun
to fight but rather now We have
only begun to lay off,"
The committees statement recon-

mended that, upon the start OF the
scheduled curtailment, relief workers
on every project be called Ito protest
meetings, to strikes. to stoppages,
delegations to city officials and Con-
gressmen, to mass picketing."
Should these measures fail" the
committee added, 'let tens of thous-
ands OF laid of workers come to the
National Capital and lay their prob

williams told the committee short
age of funds before Congress acts re-
quires curtailment to about
$3.50, 200, 900 this month and to an
undetermined level in January. He
said that, by marshaling every avail
able dollar and reducing the rolls by
425 900 persons, the program could be
carried on with present funds to
February /.
I'VE are assured by the Treasury
people" he said. we will have funds
to go through January" adding that
in order to do this it would be neces-
sary to exhaust certain reserves usually
maintained.
States Given Quotas.
Although the w. P. A. is hopeful
that it will be able to reduce the rolls
this month without dismissing per-
sons who do not have 'other income" 4"
Williams told the committee the ad-
ministration has no positive assurance
this hope will be realized.
He said each State has been given q
money quota for December, within
which it will be required to keep ex-
pendivures. The quotas were based,

DR.. Lewis M. Allen, the physician who
brought Wallis Warfield Simpson, King
Edwards friend, into the world when
her mother was occupying the War
field cottage at Blue Ridge Summit,
Pa, over 40 years ago. said today he
hoped curiously minded persons would
stop writing him letters from all parts
OF the country.
DR.. Allen, who was at the time a
young physician just out of medical
school IN Baltimore, said he had been
swamped with mail ever since the
story came out recently that he was
the physician who attended Mrs.
Simpsons mother.
Some of the writer's wanted to know
the exact minute of Mrs. Simpsons s
birth, which the doctor could not re-
member. He indicated that most of
the letters he is receiving are written
by women. He does not intend to an
swer any Of these 'pestering epistles, "
he said, and was too busy with his
medical practice, which is devoted
almost exclusively to maternity cases.
DR.. Allen, remembers Mrs. Simpson
as "a STRIPPING Of girl" in Baltimore,
and that in her early teens she gave
evidence of q strength Of character,

The vogue Of velvet is not con
fined to dresses and millinery for
grown-ups, but Is also quite the
rage in the realm of juveniles and

boys and girls from two years old
have their velvet suits and dresses
and the medieval inspiration which
characterized the haute couture
this season Is just as noticeable
In children's clothes.
These little velvet dresses In
transparent bright rayon velvet. as
well as In dull s%hOrt-piled qualities,
show high waistllnes after the old
fashioned Italian styles, with hon
eycomb work and large stiff col
larettes in Venetian lace or In
heavy rayon guipure, inspired by
the Florentine school.
