The Administration plans to
furnish jobs for 2,S43.505 persons
in the year beginning July /.
This was revealed today in tes-
timony Of Harry L. Hopkins. WPA
administrator, given to the House
Appropriations subcommittee on
the second deficiency bill urging

The program is designed to aid
ten million persons. Hopkins estt-
mated that three and one-half per
sons, ON the average. are depend
ent upon each worker.
Unless the program is expanded,
he testified, the WPA must dis
charge. 100000 workers on July /.
He disclosed that WPA is now in
the process Of slashing off 10000
jobs from its peak roster.
100000 Need Aid
State and local governments
will be required to care for half
the needy people Of the nation
under the program. Hopkins said:
II think there are 20 million
people in the United States that
have not the money to live upon
nor the means Of obtaining the
necessary money, and have to
be cared for in some way or
other.
"The net number Of persons
receiving aid from emergency re-
lief and work programs in Jan.
uary, 1886, was probably 18 to
10 Million"
Foreseeing no end to the relief
problem, Hopkins said:
II believe that you are going
to need q permanent plan for re-
lief In America in which the
Government will share"
Hopkins said the Administration
plans to continue the average $50
a-month security wage" but will
pay the prevailing hourly wage
rate in most communities, with q
limit on the amount man can
earn.
Under severe questioning in the
secret meetings, Hopkins admitted
that there has been graft and dis
honesty in WPA but defended the
program on the whole.
Reveals Some Graft
Investigators, he disclosed,
found about 1,150 cases Of evil
dence Of bribery, "kick back" on
wages, payroll padding and sim
liar charges. He stoutly denied
that politics is condoned in WPA.
Asked If politics entered into re.

is that political Endorsements

INDUSTRY JOINS
LABOR IN PLAN
T0B00STPAY
BY EDWARD B. LOCKETT

Sitting behind closed doors, rep
resentatives of labor, industry and
government, comprising the Coun-
Gil for Industrial Progress, today
perfected a legislative program
having as it's basis provisions for
minimum wages and a reason
able" work week.
Apparently, there was little dis
sension, and council members
seemed agreed upon middle-of-
the-road course in attacking this
broad economic problem.
The American Federation of
Labor, at its recent convention, en-
dorsed the six-hour day and five
day week, but here, where dele
gates represented both labor and
management, it appeared there
was little chance for it's approval.
To Clear Way
Back of this declaration were
plans for specific proposal that
the way for minimum wages and
maximum hours be cleared, even
If a constitutional amendment is
necessary. Federal Coordination
George L. Berry, presiding at the
conference, said that d efinite
legislative proposals would be
made.
The groundwork for such a
program was laid at a meeting
Of the council last March, when
committees on hours and wages,
Government competition with pri-
vate industry, and others, drafted
reports.
Today, the conclusions of these
reports will be surveyed in the
light Of developments since March
and program drafted for formal
submission to the President and
Congress.
Program of Plenty
If the skeleton proposals adopted
last March are adhered to, and
Berry and others said it would
be, the council will submit a pro-
gram calling for specific legisla-
ton to provide the following:
l. An economy of abundance;
not any economy of scarcity.
2. Expansion of Federal Trade
Commission powers to define and
enforce fair trade practices in
industry.
3. A permanent economic ad-
visory council for the Govern
ment, composed of representa-
tlves Of labor and management.
4. Establishment of definite
regulations providing for mini
mum wages with increased pay
Tor overtime, and limitations on
working hours to provide "rea-
Sonable" work-week,
