Defense Construction
Reported Defuyed 4 Doys

The national defense building
program as q whole was four days
behind contract schedule in No
vember, Secretary Perkins an
nounced today. Her estimate was
based on reports submitted by con-
tractors to the division of construc-
ton and public employment Of the
Bureau of Labor Statistics.
According to figures made public
by Secretary Perkins, an average of
279,122 wage earners was employed
in November on defense building
projects for which contracts have
been let since June. Work on these
projects was 1877 per cent completed,

for 229 per cent of completion.
Some projects were substantially
ahead of schedule" Secretary
Perkins said. For example, 80
Army building projects in the South
were two-flfths complete, whereas
the schedule called for one-third
completion. A number of smaller
Navy building projects were SINH
larly ahead Of schedule.

to appear yesterday before : Dis

paign expenditures on the ground
that his subpoena was no good, but
Government prosecutors promptly
issued new one returnable to-
morrow
The Government prepared the
new subpoena as their answer to an
assertion by Elisha Hanson. Mr..
Marshalls attorney, that it was the
Governments next move.
Mr.. Marshall, an Iowa newspaper
publisher, said in New York that
he had no comment "at this time
on the new subpoena. He flew here
from New York to confer with Mr..
Hanson, who had advised him that
he was under no compulsion to ap-
pear before the grand jury because
the first subpoena handed him was
defective
Prosecutors here admitted that
the original subpoena probably was
defective, in that it bears the name
of Frank E. Cunningham, former
clerk of the District Court, instead
