CONTINUATION
OF WPA
international News Service

The unanimous conviction of
the mayors of the Nations 100
largest cities that continuation Of
the WPA program is absolutely
essential If unemployment is to
be combatted was conveyed to
President Roosevelt today.
Mayor Fiorello La Guardia, Of
New York, as chairman Of the
U. s. conference of mayors. laid
on the Presidents desk an exhaus-
tive report indicating that the
mayors of the big cities conSid-
cred "WPA the American system
in contrast to the European dole" "
The report undertook to meet
all criticisms levelled at WPA, ex-
tolling the usefulness of its prof.
ectS, the benefits it bestowed upon
communities and the employment
it created.
The mayors asked the minimum
Of $2,340,000,000 to continue work
relief through the next fiscal year.
The voluminouS report submit
ted by LaGuardia contained state
mentS from each of the hundred
mayors analyzing conditions in
their communities and pointing
out their reasons for insisting on
the necessity of continuing WPA.
LaGuardia said:
This report is important be-
cause it comes from the men
who are living with the problem
of work relief, who are on top
of it every day, and who are in
the best position to know what
is best in the way of asolutiOn."

Mrs. Welch explains that the

Q) a yearly physical eXamina-

annual fee they may do so through
the resettlement administration.
Loans of this type will be made at
3 percent.
A tentative medical and health
survey of Pinal County, made dur
ing the past fall, indicates that a
considerable share of our rural
population are in need of medical as
sistance and are not receiving it
because they cannot pay and will
not ask. A Pinal County medical
cooperative should have an especial
appeal for them. The home demon
stration agent and the rural Re-
Mobilization supervisor are accepting
signatures to an expression of
