ment at construction sites on more than 26O00 projects and in the production of raw materials, fabri- cation and transportation. This es- innate does not include work pro- vided as a result of the federal housing program.
 Private Industry
 All employment engaged in the production and fabrication of ma terials was in private industry un- der regular normal working condi- tionS at prevailing wages and uSu- ally the workers thus benefited did not know that they held their jobs because of PWA. These figures, es- tirnated as of April l, do not include more that three billion additional msn-hours of employment in sup plyinng demands for consumers goods and services.
 The relation between construction site or direct employment, and "be- hsnd the lines" or indirect employ ment, has been thoroughly explored insofar as PWA projects are con- cerned by the bureau of labor stat istics of the United States depart ment of labor. A study of hundreds of PWA non-federal projects con- vinced the bureau that the ratio between indirect and site construc- ton employment is 1-2 to l. For every hour of work created at the site of construction, there are 2 1-2 times as much created in mines, for eSts, factories, mills, etc.
 Another independent study re- gently concluded by the bureau of labor statistics and reported to the public works administration showed that in order to provide one man with months regular employment on a PWA non-federal project, the federal government was required to spend only $61.24. This figure was based on a grant of 45 per cent of the cost of the project, the blance of $7484 (per cenO being borne by the community sponsoring the pro- ject.
 26,427 Projects
 The summary reported to Admin istrator Ickes yesterday showed that PWA has allotted $2,339, ,848,476 in loans and grants for 26,427 fed eral and non-federal projects the estimated cost of which was $4,- 4775, ,037,553.
 Of the total allotted, 10,474 of the projects were non-federal and 15,- 9O2 were federal. The non-federal projects for which allotments were made numbered 10,474, including schools, other public buildings, hos

 A "Conn1erciaP'

Hartford, April 19-Is the col lection of garbage which is m- cidentaI to the raising of hogs, agricultural labor and there fore not subject to the COnnec- ticut Unemployment COmpen- SatiOn Act?
 A New Haven company which raises the hOofed mammals of the Suidae family claimed that it's employees who collect gar bage for pig consumption, are agricultural and not cOmmer- cial workers.
 Labor Commissioner Joseph M. Tone, administrator of the act, turned the canny question over to Harry Silverstone, an assistant attorney general, and the latter has decided that the company's employees who en- gage in such collections do come under the provisions of the legislation.
 The fact that the owners use five trucks and have contract with the City Oi Films makes tn undertaking a commercial operation, the assistant attOr- ney general advised.
 The company's claim is, in Silverstone's opinion, mot we'll founded" and the owners will have to pay Q tax on employees they merly considered exempt.
