the Federal Government, through
the PWA, to help cities build
publicly owned and operated pow
Ell plants. Several months ago
the Fourth Circuit Court of APP
peals upheld the PWlA's financing
of the Buzzard's Roost power
project in South Carolina and it
is expected that both cases will
go to the United States Supreme
Court next October. Justice
Wheat, in his decision, took note
of the testimony Of Harold L.
Ickes, Secretary of the Interior
and Administrator of the PWA,
that there are 26O electric power
projects underway throughout the
country as result of government
financing and that only eighty
five of them are located where
private power plants exist.
The American Federation of
Labor, taking note of an estimate
of unemployment, made by the
New York Sun, which showed only
3.393,00O workers without jobs,
insists that there are 11,506,000
workers unable to obtain employ
ment. The discrepancy accord
ing to William Green, Federation
president, is caused by the fact
that the newspaper did not in
clude all industries in its survey.
A bill has been introduced in
the Senate by Senators O'Mahoney
and La Toilette to put all regular
Government employees under per-
manent Civil Service. The meas
ure, which has Administration
backing, is not expected to be
pushed until the next session of
Congress but is evidently aimed
to forestall critics who charge that
the Administration has wrecked
the Civil Service. Under the bill,
all postmasters would be placed
under Civil Service by 1888 and
the President would be empower
ed to take the same steps with re-
gard to other agencies. Some pro-
lection is offered present job
holders.

Chicago, July q (AP)-Reports
that recent RAINS had failed to shake
the drought in a wide area of the
corn and cattle belt centered atten-
ton of Federal and State officials to-
day on a long range program for re-
leving the stricken jewellers.
Observers in such typical drought
ravaged states as Nebraska, Iowa,
Missouri, Oklahoma, Montana, Hi
nois and the Dakotas said that in
much of their territories the rainfall
either came too late or was insuffi-
Gent to countcract the effects of pro-
longed aridity.
At Washington the Works Progress
Administration announced authoriza-
ton Of $4,000 drought relief jobs in
North Dakota, South Dakota, Mon
tana, Wyoming, Minnesota and Colo
RADIO and 10000 in the South.
WPA officials asserted that $50
water conservation projects in the
western states already had put "a,
$50 men to work providing almost the
sole source of employment for needy
farmers. All approved projects, the
announcement said, would be COM
pleted, requiring an average of five
months.
The Resettlement Administration,
distributing $3,393,000 in direct sub
sistence grants to farmers, explained
its general farm plan called for the
removal of hard hit families to fertile
land as close as possible to their for
mer homes.

Raleigh, July 21.-The eventual in
stallation of a Statewide radio COM
munications system for the State
Highway Patrol, with five short wave
broadcasting stations scattered over
the State, is now regarded as assur-
ed since the plans have been approved
by Governor J. c. B. Ehringhaus. The
plans must still be approved by the
Advisory Budget Commission, which
meets here August 3. But since the
wad1h system already has the APP
proval of Governor Ehringhaus and
since there is plenty of money for
the installation of the system, it is
regarded as almost certain that the
budget commission will authorize the
expenditure of the $165,0O0 needed to
build the five broadcasting stations,
equip them and the radio patrol cars
and motorcycles. It is estimated that
it will cost about $4,000 a year to
maintain and operate the radio con-
troll system, including the cost of
