 Transportation
 Those assigned to the Southbury construction will be transported by Connecticut company busses, paid for by the state. These busSes will leave Freight street bridge at 7:15 o'clock weekdays, starting Monday and will return the local men to Waterbury every night.
 Already the government has pro- vided about $170000 for preliminary work on the Southbury enterprise and the first work is that of clear ing brush on the large tract, plan ming roads and laying sewers. In this the WPA will share work but later the construction will be by con- tracts let by the state.
 The Waterbury welfare depart ment has been supplying accredited relief recipients to the WPA on a large scale the first quarter of this year. More than 100 men are said to be available from relief rolls for placement next week.

 Transfers Necessary
 Local labor currently is employed on WPA projects in Waterbury for which the city has appropriated this year about $13O,O0O and for which the government will pay almost $500,0OO during the next four months. There is needed, however transfer of some appropriations to continue jobs for more than 100 men and Mayor Frank Hayes is expected to call a meeting of the board of f. nance for either Monday or Tuesday to arrange such a procedure.
 Various WPA-city projects have been held up during the first quar- ter because of Controller Sherwood L. Rowland's refusal to grant con- sessions in the matter of appropria- ton transfers and honoring of re- quisitions for material. Many of these matters have been adjusted only after several city boards went through the formula of approval which forced the controller to act.

The committee, after a two-hou1
wrangle, approved the OMahoney
resolution creating a temporary
National Economic Committee II
exactly the form in which the
resolution was approved by the
Senate.
IL ON COMMITTEE
Wide discretion is granted Presi
dent Roosevelt in the expenditure
Of funds. The investigation will bt
largely conducted by govern
mental bureaus, and thus will be
under his general supervision.
The proposed temporary ma
tional economic committee would
be composed of three Senators
three Representatives and rep
resentative of each of the follow
ing Government departments and
agencies: Departments of Justice,
Commerce, Labor, and Treasury
and the Securities and Exchange
and Federal Trade Commissions.
While 100000 of the fund
would be for the committee, the
remainder would be subject to al
location by the President, thus
giving him wide latitude.
RESTRICTION BLOCKED
All efforts to restrict the au-
thority of the President in the
expenditure of funds failed in the
Senate. An effort to eliminate
Labor Department representation
also failed.
Representative Celler Cd of
New York, acting chairman of
the judiciary Committee, said the
Administration will insist that Mr..
Roosevelt be given a free hand
in ALLEGATION of funds and that
Labor Department representation
be included.
zone of the major purposes is
to Investigate the question of
monopolies and trusts in their
relation to employment" he said.
"It is, therefore, important that
there be Labor Department rep
resentation on the committee.
"It also is necessary that the
President have broad discretion
in ALLEGATION of funds, so as to
assure that every subject COW
cred in his message to Congress
will be Investigated.
We all want TO bring the
country back to normal, to find
out just what conditions are in
business and what is necessary
to remedy them"
The committee, under the OMa-
honey resolution, is directed to de-
termine the effect Of alleged
trusts and monopolies on prices,
employment and consumption Of
goods.

Wheat Cut
Limit Is
Sought

G.N.SD Congressional t or
to avert a threatened so per cent
cut in wheat acreage next year
under the new farm act today ap,
peared probable before adjourn
Nlent.
Chairman Jones CD of Texas
sought an opportunity to obtain
passage of a resolution providing
that wheat acreage allotments
shall not be cut below 52,0o0,0OO
acres next year.
THE situation is that, with
present crop prospects, the law
would require a reduction OF
wheat acreage to between 40
900 900 and 50000,000 acres next
year" explained Representative
Hope (R.) of Kansas. This
would be approximately so per
cent cut, since this years acre
age is around 8O,000,000 acres.
CUT TOO SEVERE
"The Department of Agricul-
ture and members of the COM
mittee thought that this reduc-
ton would be too severe"
A group of wheat belt Senators
were dissatisfied with the $4,000.
O00-acre limit and sought to raise
it to 100000.
Hope expressed the belief that
when the resolution finally is
passed by Congress the limit will
be put at about 55,00000o acres, a
reduction in next years acreage
of about 80 per cent.
CROP SIZE DECISIVE
Under the present law, wheat
acreage allotments next year
would increase or decrease IN ac-
cordance with the size OF this
years crop.
