 Dollar Plans
 For Recovery

WASHINGTON, April 10, tH)- President Roosevelt yesterday proposed a seven billion dollar Recovery Program embracing a five billion dollar federal spend ing and lending plan, and a two billion dollar expansion of bank credit.
 Settig up forty congressional measures with which he said the government could "help start the upward spiraf', and suan1noning unlimited national will" to a wig orous attack on recession, Roose welt told legislators who recently dealt a stunning blow to major administration measures:
 Our capacity is limited only by our ability to work together, What is needed is the will, and the time will come to bring that will into action, with every driv- ing force at our command.
 T am determined to do my share, he declared.
 The President stated The will to cooperate places on all of us the duty of self restraint. There can be no dictatorship by any one individual or group in this nation, save through a division tostered by hate"
 The President divided his pro- gram for recovery into three groups of measures:
 First, that which is involved mainly in additional appopria- tions for the fiscal year begin ming July l. It will be a one bill- ion two hundred and fifty mill ion dollar Works Progress; hun dred and seventy five million dollars for farm security adnini- stration; fifty million for the Civilian Consnervation Coprs; a billion and a half to be made av- ailable for the Reconstruction Corporation, lending ot business enterprise.
 In the Second group of meas ures he asked three hundred mil lion dollars for immediate ex- panSion of the housing and slun clearance work of the U. s. Hous ing Authority; a billion four hun dred and fifty million for Public Works; loans to plants an addi- tional one hundred million, and public roads an additional thirty

She was in her car, heading
down the road. She wanted to be
safely away before the others left.
She remembered that they would
pass her, because her car was so
slow and theirs were so fast, and
turned down a side road to wait.
Her car was limping more pain
fully. When she stopped to wait
until the wedding party had
passed, she couldn't start the mo-
tor again. Far down the road the
last taillight of the wedding party
flashed.
She couldn't walk home and she
couldn't wait until a car passed.
Now the rain was beginning and
the green lace dress felt thin. She
rummaged around and found an
old gray raincoat.
Down the road a light shone.
Maybe someone in that house had

what she needed. She remem-

have her tank filled that day. The
