W. P. A. in Louisiana
Called Racket by Taber
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
Representative Taber, Republican,
of New York declared yesterday that
w P. A. operation in Louisiana
represents the worst type of rack
eteering in relief I have ever seen
anywhere in the country"
The New Yorker, member of a
House committee investigating w. P.
A., declared he would see that the
whole dirty mess" was exposed.
Projects in the State, he charged,
were not based on the workers
need and many were initiated for
the benefit of private property. He
charged that officials violated a re-
quirement that employment be linn
tied to persons who produced certi-
ficates of need from public authori-
ties
The House w. p A. group sent in
vestigators to Louisiana earlier this
year to study the relief situation.
NEW ORLEANS, Dec. 20 (R.-
James H. Crutcher, State w. P. A,
administrator, said yesterday in q
statement that it had cost only $12O
per rat exterminated by w. P. A.
workers here, and not $297 per ro-
dent, as charged by Representative
Taber, Republican, of New York in
an attack on w. P. A. activities In
Louisiana.
Mr. Crutcher said every dollar
spent in the criticized projects could
be accounted for and that the books
Of the agency were open to the COM

Balkans, which Mussolini regards
as within his sphere of influence.
So he, like the allies, has set to
work on the Finnish levee to keep
1t from breaking.
And here it might be added that
there are many observers who be-
lieve Mussolini may continue to la
Dor increasingly along the same
lines as England and France, not
only in Finland but elsewhere.
The Firms already have had some
military supplies. Early this month
London arranged to allow Finland
80 fighting planes and a "consid-
cradle quantity" of other war mate
rials.
At the same time it was reported
that so Italian planes had been de-

BY DEWITT MACKENZIE,

Associated Press Foreign Affairs Writer.
The Allied Supreme War Councils
reported decision to give Finland all
possible aid in her war with Russia
seems to line England and France
up very definitely on the side of the
little republic, and consequently over
the fence from the Communists.
This action, if officially confirmed,
bids fair to have far-reaching conse-
quences. It makes one wonder more
than ever whether Europe is headed
for enlargement of the Hitlerian
conflict.
The councils decision represents,
of course, formal response to the
request of the League of Nations the
other day that its members assist
the Firms. This was when the
Soviet Union was expelled from the
peace organization on charge of
aggression against her tiny neighbor
Both England and France at that
time announced their intention to
comply with the request The action
OF the war council, however, turns
this announcement into a formal
and powerful instrument, and one
which is to be welded jointly by
the Anglo French brotherhood,
rather than separately.
Soviet Blames Allies.
This naturally means that the
allies, having prior to the Russo
Finnish clash done everything pos
sible to avoid drawing the Musco-
vites into the Hitlerian conflict,
finally have decided that the Soviet
has overstepped the mark and must
be checked. Therefore the Firms
get help, let the consequences be
what they may.
The Communist press, by the way,
not only charges Anglo French i'm
perialism with having encouraged
Finland to 60 to war, but claims
the allies were back of the drastic
action taken by the League of Ma
tlons against Russia. The Musco-
vites will be long in forgiving that
expulsion.
1t looks as though Finland might
have fair Christmas after all. She
has the trees, the snow and the
reindeer but has been praying for
the Santa Claus who now appears
to be on his way. Aid will come
as godsend to the Firms, whose
small hands are more than full

an expeditionary force. The mu-
nitions can be flown, whereas il
would be difficult to move troops
In view of the mined waters and
the obstacles due to the neutrality
of Norway and Sweden.
In sending airplanes the allies will
be giving up one Of the things they
need most themselves.
However, many observers hold
that whatever aid England and
France give Finland now will be
just so much aid for themselves
later on
Which is to say the idea is grow
ing that sooner or later the Brit
ish and French will have to settle
accounts with Russia anyway.
1t is an interesting circumstance
that the Russian expansion west
ward is being viewed by Mussolini
through glasses of the same color as
those used by the allies And it Is
significant that he regards the So
Wet advance as sufficiently menac-
ing so that he also has been giving
help to Finland.
Balkan Expansion Looms.
That looks like a long way of II
Duce's beat, when you gauge it
merely by the map. But if Finland
falls, this may open the way for
the Communist flood to sweep not
only westward, but down through the
