 This provision, hiking their WpA costs, will hit those cities just when the relief load normally Is highest, and just when reduction of WPA rolls has given them local-relief- cost increase beyond that normal in- crease. Some of those cities, MT. Hunter figures, won't even be able to handle the rise in direct relief costs ito say nothing of the rise in WPA costs.
 On top of all of this, WPAs administrative staff is be n g slashed - from 36,000 to 24,000 workers, roughly. This will mean greatly lowered efficiency, ranging all the way from actual project

$4,000 Farm Fami|ie,
Will Receive Aid
From Government
F. s. A. to Make Looms
And Grants to Those
Found in Distress
5y the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press
It's mail laden with pleas for help
as result of drought and floods,
the Farm Security Administration
took steps yesterday to open its
Golfers to $4,000 farm families.
The F. S. A. instructed its super
visors in 20 States affected by
drought and flood to accept appli-
cations of these families for loans,
relief grants and food. The agency
has about $50,0O0,0OO available to
distribute among farm families
found to be needing aid.
Eligible for financial assistance
are low-income farm families who
are unable to obtain credit else
where and who must have such as
sistance to maintain themselves on
the land until they can harvest
crops next year.
Needs Held Varied.
Needs Of the distressed families
we're described as varied Officials
said that in the Southeast, where
heavy rains caused flood damage to
crops, many tenant and sharecrop-
per farmers needed food because of
inability to obtain credit from mer-
chants on the basis of next years
cotton crop.
Arrangements were being made to
place these families on relief lists
and thus make them eligible to re-
ceive surplus foods being distributed
by the Federal Surplus Commodities
Corp. through State relief agencies.
Where such food supplies were not
Immediately available, families were
to receive outright relief grants
averaging about $40 a month, or
loans.
Some Southern farmers were
reported to need fertilizer for next
years crop, Others needed seed.
Feed Supplies Needed.
The principal needs in drought
areas of the Midwest, particularly
in Kansas, Oklahoma and Nebraska,
were feed supplies for livestock.
Ofhcials said that unless feed was
made available Immediately many
families would have to sell at a
sacrifice livestock herds built up
since the 1886 drought.
Some families in the Dakotas.
where there is a shortage of trees
for fuel, were reported to be in need
OF funds for purchase of wood and
coal.
Families receiving drought loans
will be given five years to repay.
They will have the advice of F. S. A.
supervisors in efforts to regain a
self-supporting basis.
Offlcials said that if the agency
was to carry on its regular rural aid
program, under which it is helping
100000 other farm families, it would
need deficiency appropriation
early in the regular session of Con-
gress.
