important ones are now doing. lust

of most of the talk is a slim. slaney.
dark-haired chap named Howard
Hunter. deputy administrator of
WPA.
As No 2 man in the WPA high
command. Mr. Hunter is the tar
set at which the congressional
critics OF WPA usually elect to
shoot Sol went around To see
him. and ask him if maybe things
wouldn't be improved if the whole
work-relief program were turned
back TO the states. as some of the
critics have been suggesting
Mr.. Hunter leaned back in his

That way he said. you'd sill
ply multiply the politics there

Of governmental units you'd tum

cities. you'd be multiplying II by

The main source of political
manipulation in WPA is in the local
relief offices and by local politi-
clans on both sides OF the fence,
Democratic and Republican
The argument now is that. OF

politics entering into the thing il
the program is turned back to the
