so, he admitted. the whole RELIEF
situation will not be met.
The committee looking to the
future, also said:
This decrease in employment
ana decline in private industry
has been the sharpest ever re-
corded in the history Of our
country and while at the pres
ent time it appears that the
situation is static, the commit
tee has received no information
that would lead them to believe
that there was in prospect in
the near future such an upturn
in business conditions as would
justify the appropriation of

quested."
LOCATES GREATEST NEED
Williams told the committee
that the greatest need for relief
is through the middle tier of
States from New Jersey and Penn
sylvania through Ohio, Michigan,
Indiana, Illinois, Southern Wiscon-
sin, Northern Minnesota, Missouri,
and also through the industrial
and coal regions of the South,

Williams, asserting that the Ad-

last year "muffed the ball.
BUSINESS TOO GREEDY"
II think they shot prices up
to a point where nobody could
buy" said Williams. "They got
just a little too greedy. They
wanted to make just a little too
much profit, and they shot the
prices up out of reach of people
to buy. That was true of rents.
It was true of some foods. It
was true of building materials"
Secretary Morgenthau revealed
the Administration had held off
on requesting more money in the
hope of a business pick up. He
said 100000 people have lost
jobs and "the situation is most
acute"

Yet there Is no one who can take
