Latest Washington Data Means Nothing
 As Quota Is Filled
Revocation of Strict Eligibility Requirements on WPA Worthless Fight to Retain Local Recognition to
 Continue Along New Lines in Future

by the revocation of the eligibility rule, the WPA quota for Waterbury, stationary for the past several months, must be enlarged to permit the employment of several hundred more. The quota here was set by
 state authorities at $50 and has been filled for some time with men and women taken from the relief lists of last May, according to orig inal requirements.
 The fight to obtain recognition
 for the city must consequently be continued along new lines. A recent comparison of quotas for the larger
 cities of the state, issued from the
 ofice of State PWA Administrator
 Matthew A. Daly showed that in
 proportion to population Waterbury had not been fairly treated in the , allotment of man power for the projects. William M. Harris, head of the Lincoln House association, former
 Mutual Aid and EZRA executive,
 who was instrumental in calling the plight of the Mutual Aid workers to
 the attention of national authorities
 said this morning that the outlook was promising" He said he had been assured by Thomas Kelly, exep'
 cutive secretary to Mayor Hayes,
 that the city would cooperate with
 him in an attempt to gain a larger
 quota here.
