HOPKINS DENIES.
JOBLESS ARMY'S
DEMAND ON WPA
Demonstration Planned
Tonight By Group

IN.S0. WPA Administr a tor
Harry L. Hopkins gave the ad-
vance answer of mo" today before
meeting delegation representing
a gathering army of demonstrate
ors against the WPA job reduction
program.
His mo" was the reply to de-
mands of the demonstrators, as
sembling here from throughout
the country at the call Of David
LASER, self-elected president OF
the Workers Alliance Of America,
that:
/. WPA halt its job reduction
program and stop dismissal OF
any WPA worker until that
worker has found private en-
ployment.
2. WPA provide jobs for all
employables in the country who
have been unable to find en-
ployment in private industry.
3. WPA increase its wage scale
20 per cent.
FUNDS RESTRICTED
1--WE have only so much
money; we can do only SO
MUCH" Hopkins said before
going into the conference with
LASER and his group. mo per-
sons today are being forced off
of WPA jobs except for cause.
These dismissalS are only Of .
what we call Glass B workers,
who refuse to do their work,
or are not in actual need.
1.-THE great bulk of the peo-
pie who have left WPA have
left voluntarily, going into pri-
vate employment. True, q lot
of this employment is temper
airy, and we probably will get an
increase this fall. But we think
that at least 100000 people
have left WPA in the last 10
months to take private employ
ment."
RALLY SET FOR TONIGHT
The "jobless" army representa-
tives went ahead with plans for a
demonstration tonight on the lawn
of the Washington Monument,
where they have been sleeping for
three nights. They anticipated
the arrival of 600 more during the
day, while Lesser declared between
5000 and 1000 were on their way.
It became known that WPA
workers pay dime a month in
dues to the alliance, which has
maintained headquarters here
since the work-relief program was
substituted for direct relief on
December I, 1885.
INCOME PUT AT $4,000
LASER claims a membership OF
100000. At a dime a month, that
would bring a $20,O00-a-month in
come to the organization Golfers.
The alliance treasury is paying
the cost of a soup kitchen" for
the "jobless" army.
Present WPA employment of
1,527,450 workers brings the job
list slightly below the estimated
average 1,650,000 which can be
provided for under the $1,500, 000,-
900 work-relief appropriation made
by Congress, Hopkins pointed out.
In addition to the WPA workers,
about 10000 from the relief rolls
are employed by other govern
mental agencies using relief funds,
making a total, as Of August IA, of
1877, $50.

This Week in
Thought and Religion
By Robert L. Moody
The Day of AtOnment


Last week our Jewish neighbors
celebrated what is to them the
greatest day in the year-Yom
kippur, or Day of Atonment. The
thought o. meaning of this celebra-
ton inspires us-Christians-to
understanding of sin and the sup
rene sacrifice which was made for
all, both Jews and Gentiles.
Personally, / think it quite
thrilling to be reminded how the
High Priest offered the sin offer
ing for himself and the people.
Imagine seeing him sprinkle the
blood from the sin offering upon
the 'scape goat" and this goat is
led away ladened with the sins of
the people. Once again the people
arc freed from. their sins and the
High Priest may offer burnt of
fering up to God, sweet with the
fragrance of burning incense lie, a
sacrifice to God with a sweet smell
ing SAVIOUR.
As our neighbors celebrate these
ancient ceremonies in the typical
meaning those of us who havve ac-
cepted Christ, repoice because he
is u passover and He is our High
Priest. We who were afar off are
made nigh by his blood. We enjoy
the "atonement' made possible by
Christ for through Adam all had
lost the image on likeness of God
but through Christ all were made
alive. To understand this Jewish
holiday, may we suggest that you
read: Levitius 16:29-23:2G to
20 and Christ as the fulfillment of
these in the 8th, 9th, and 10th
chapters of Hebrews.
But Christ being come a high
priest of good things to come by
q greater and mare perfect taber
nacle. -. neitherHe entered in once
into the Holy Place, having obtain
ed Eternal Redemption for u.s."
Heb. Oil, IL. Speaking of the will
of God and u atonement, the
word reads; by the which will we
are sanctified through the offering
of the body of Jesus Christ Once
For All. Heb. 1910.

A BASEBALL CLASSIC

Some remarkable games have been
played during the 1887 baseball season.
but none quite equalled the smuggling match
between the New York Yankees and the
Philadelphia Athletics one June day in
1882, which the Yankees won by the score
of 20 to 13.
The hero of the game was Lou Gehrig
of the Yankees, who hit four home runs in
his first four trips to the plate. In his
fifth time at bat he grounded out, and in
his sixth he was denied his fifth home run
of the game only by sensational one
hand catch by Simmons in center field.
Gehrig had previous record of three
home runs in each of three games. He
shares with two old-timers the record of
four home runs in a major league game,
and was the first to accomplish the feat
since Ed Delehanty of the Phillies did the
trick in 1896 Bob Lowe of the Boston
Nationals did it in 1894, Lowe also hitting
four homers in his first four times at bat.
Babe Ruth never hit more than three home
runs in single game.
In the Yankee-Athletics game men
toned, Ruth, Combs and Lazzeri also hit
homers for the Yankees. Lazzeri's COM
ing in the ninth with the bases full This
total of seven home runs in a single game
by one team tied the all-time record.
The complete batting records OF the
game: Yankees, II singles, doubles, ?
triples and home runs. Athletics. 6
singles, doubles, 8 triples, and home
runs
