Plan Would Require States to
Put Up Is Cents Out of
Each Dollar Spent
BAILEY APPROVES SYSTEM

Republican proposals to return re-
lief administration to the States
next year with a $1,250,000,000 ap-
preparation was introduced in both
Houses of Congress Tuesday-in the
Senate by Vandenberg of Michigan
and in the House by Representative
Bacon of New York.
The plan would require States to
put up Is cents for each dollar pro-
vided by the Federal government.
The measure would create Fed
eral relief board to allocate $780,
100000 of the Federal appropriation
among the States on the basis of
population, living costs and financi-
al resources. A $1OO,OOO,OO0 reserve
fund would be used by the Federal
board to meet extraordinary and
unforeseen emergencies.
The bill would require each State
to set up board of relief trustees of
bipartisan membership.
Demanding that relief administra-
ton be returned to the States, Sen
ate Republicans and conservative
Democrats were headed a week ago
toward the same economy goal. Re-
publicans were expected to stand
almost unanimously for State con-
troll of relief expenditures, as that
policy had been incorporated in
their party platform last year.
Senator Bailey of North Carolina
said many conservative Democrats
were ready to join them. He added
that the coalition would support
the bill of Senator King, Utah Dem
ocrat, to dismatle WPA as a Fed
eral project and appropriate $85O,000
to be matched by State aid for re-
lief work.
A House appropriations subcom-
mittee early in the week decided on
a $1,OOO,OOO,OO0 relief appropriation
for next fiscal year-$500,000 be-
low the amount asked by President
Roosevelt.
Representative Boland of Penn
sylvania, Democratic whip, declar-
ed, however: We'll put the $780,
100000 back"
In an explosive session Tuesday,
the House agreed tentative to scrap
the Presidents recommendation for
a permanent CCC and to extend the
agency for only two years from
July l.
Thus revolts against two vital
parts of the Presidents relief pro-
gram broke out the same day in the
House.
The House appropriations sub
committee voted to 4 to cut the
relief appropriation to $1,000, 900, 900.

That old "diller-a-dollar" child
hood rhyme may come to pass by
regulation for Washington's thou
sands of school children.
Traffic Director William A. Van
DuZer and Major Ernest w.
Brown, superintendent of police,
once again have recommended
that the opening of schools be de-
layed from 9 until $50 a. m. as a
traffic safety measure.
The recommendations were
made to the District Commits
Sioners and will be forwarded to
the Board of Education. which
will not meet again until early
September. Last year, when the
proposal of delaying the opening
hour of school was made, the
board sent out missionaries to
parents, found division of opin.
ion. and dropped the suggestion.
