LOCAL COMMU MITES

The CONFORMATION is fortunate

COL. HARRINGTON
AND THE WPA

Editor The Times: The trans

litieally noisome administration
of WPA to the assumed less
socially simpatico ministra tons
of Col. +. c. Harrington has I'M
doubtedly caused no little spec
ulation to those directly de-
pendent upon the continuance
of the program. WPA has in
dubitably long needed face
lifting and face saving opera
ton. Substitution of the more
exacting civil service require
ments in selecting local admin
istrative heads could scarcely
be less disastrous than the pres
ent lack of all standards.
As the msladministration Of
the WPA has so tragically
proven. the fact man succeeds
in convincing Senator Swash-
buckle that his. the mans,
efforts were largely responsible
for seating the senator on his
sinecure for another term,
scarcely proves the mans fit
ness to intelliSently or sympa-
thetically handle the complex
business OF directing relief work.

imize or criticize the splendid
efforts of soodly ma jority of
those who direct and formulate
the destiny of the 55-dollar man.
I'll venture TO say there isn't
$500 a month relief executive in
all these As states who doesn't
believe the lowly project worker
deserves all he gets.
