DEN|EDBY NOLAN
Motor Firm Says 1t Had No
Intention to Interfere
With Employees.

Charges by the National Labor Re-
lations Board that the Nolan Motor
Co., Inc, I'LL Eighteenth street, vio-
lated the national labor relations act
by anti-union actions among its en-
ployes were denied today by the COM
pany at a hearing involving two men.
A trial examiner conducted the pro-
ceedings at the Tariff Commission
hearing room.
The men in question are Joseph
Acevez, 10 street. and Bruce Luttrell,
1923 D street northeast.
Acevez, who said he had refused to
sign a paper repudiating a proposed
agreement between the company and
the International Association OF
Machinists and had been discharged
May Is, testified he went to work
Saturday for the Nolan company at
the paint shop to which Nolan is
sending his work Acevez declared
that he never had heard Of the Nolan
Motor Co. Employees Beneficial Asso-
citation before he left the company
May 13. The National Labor Rela-
tions Board, on complaint of the
International Association of Machin-
lists, Local No. 1913, charged that the
company through this association at
tempted to dominate and coerce en-
ployes by this company union.
The company in its formal answer
to the charge today filed copies of a
statement dated June Is to its en-
ployes declaring it had declared the
beneficial association "disestablished." !"
The company pointed out that it
took this step at the suggestion Of
the National Labor Relations Board
and that it had no intention to inter-
fere with its employees who wished to
belong to the regular Machinists'
Union, Local 1913.
Luttrell followed Acevez The board
charged that he was forced to quit
when put on work it was impossible
for him to do. He explained that he
had been given two hours to do q
complete overhaul job on truck
which ordinarily would have taken at
least three days.

DOLE REGULATION
FOR Jobs WILL Be
LIFTED BY v. ?. A.
Pre-November Ruling to Be
Discarded in Order
Due Soon.
STATE DIRECTORS
TO DECIDE ON CASES
Workers Must Be On Relief at
Present Time, However.
Projects Approved.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
An order to be issued this week by
the Works Progress Administration
will lift the requirement that person
must have been on the dole prior to
November l in order to obtain a w.
p. A. job.
Officials said today that State w.
p. A. administrators thereafter would
decide which of those eligible for local
relief and able to work would get
jobs. regardless Of when they went on
the dole.
Lifting of the previous requirement,
originally adopted to prevent COM
munitieS from certifying an excessive
number of unemployed for w. P. A.
work, was forecast several months ago
by Administrator Harry L. Hopkins.
Oficials said the present rule re-
quiring that a person must be on re-
lief or certified for relief to be eligible
for w. P. A. employment will be con-
tinued
Many to Be Ineligible.
Explaining that under the new ST.
425,000,000 work-relief appropriation
not more than 100000 persons could
be given jobs, they added the rule is
to be continued although large num-
ber of the unemployed will not be
eligible for Federal help under it.
In his relief message this year,
President Roosevelt told Congress the
appropriations would not be sufficient
for year unless private employment
picked up.
Hopkins reported today the w. P. A.
Is ready TO begin the new fiscal year
July l with nearly $4,000, ,000,0 900 in
approved projects available for the
job program.
A new report Of Works Progress
Administration activities showed that
10000 projects, involving an expendi-
ture Of $1,149,371, 1856, were underway
rs of April Is, out of total Of 178,000
projects with an estimated total cost
Of s5,45o, 100000.
approximately four out of every five
dollars made available by w. P. A.,
the analysis said, are used for direct
4ouOI COotSs W4AlC on PCI NCLl6 Va bA2C
contributions of sponsoring communi-
ties goes for material, equipment and
other operating expenses.
States Put Up Is Per Cent.
Hopkins, who said yesterday it
would not be necessary to have the
projects reapproyed under the new
81, AIS, 100000 w. P. A. appropriation,
asserted States and communities were
putting up $265 100000, or 18 per
cent of the cost of work now under
way.
Value of work underway varied from
$275, ,602,1 ,123 in New York to 81 ,608, ,085
in Nevada, and the percentage Of
local contributions from 418 per cent
in wyoming to 81 per cent in West
Virginia and the District Of Columbia.
One Third for Road Work.
Highway, road and street construc-
ton accounted for one-third of the
total expenditure, while construction
projects of all kinds totaled $l,145,-
866,107, the report showed.
Apparently because communities
were more interested in construction
projects, they contributed 20 per cent
Of the total cost, compared with about
10 per cent white collar, canning and
clothes making, and others not bring
ing physical improvements to public
property.
