TO add that In the yard where ]
work remarkably friendly feeling
exists between the red hsts--fire

workers.
The new man going into ship

sion some outsiders have. he
doesn't pay for a work permit.
Within 80 days. II he remains
that long in the yard. he must
apply for initiation into the union.
which costs $50 for helpers. AZ
TO that initiation fee, Sam says:
"The dividends q shipyard worker
gets. In the form Of working con-
ditions and wages. more than equal
his initiation fee into the union"
Sam also points out that when q

worst beating since Midway.

"a colOred woman came to me with a

ed was kerosene with which 20 cook her
meals, and the QUESTIONABLE given her
wanted to know how much fuel-it would re-

about eleemosynary institutions, and much
more irrelevant stuff along the same lines.
If gotta fill out all dat the colored
woman told me, then guess I'll have 10

A. note was written for the colored
woman; it told the rationing board that all
she wanted, in the way of fuel, was enough

We have not seen a QUESTIONABLE yet.

conserve rubber, but instead of requiring

slip of paper half as large as ones hand

of ones tires? We know of man who had
to take off the tires on his car to find out

WPA SERVED AMERICANS
TO END IT'S ACTIVITIES
GAVE AID TO 10000 600

Established in May, 1885, the
WORKS FioJect administration
win come to an endnin all states
by June 81, 1913, aceording to, an
oIder issued to MajoFt General
Philip 3. Fleming,1u Adninistya-
tor, by President RooSevRlt. who
points out that experience has
amply justified the belief that
pr oViding useful work is stipef4of
to any and every kind of dole".>
The President, in his letter,
points out that the WPA gave
employment to 100000 Ameri-
cans, with 30,000,000 dependents,
bringing to them renewed nope
and courage The organization
was based upon Government ac-
ceptance of the responsibility to
provide useful employment for
all who were able and willing to
work without being able to find
such opportunity in private in
duStry.
WPA officials, reviewing the
work of the organization, point
out that peak employment was
reached in November, 1889, when
3,334s594 persons were sons the
rolls By November of this. year,
employment had dropped to 1884,
GIG persons. In seven years, the
work relief agency received APP
tpropriatfons of $1O,458 ,276, 900.
1t lists among its accomplish
ments the construction of 644,-
900 miles of roads and 77,OOO
bridges; construction of 10000
buildings of all kinds, including
322 armories and about $4,000
other buildings for the armed
forces; construction improve
ment or enlargement of more
than 300 airports, including the
construction of 700 miles of run
ways; the serving of 8788,0O0,000
hot lunches to school children;
the operation of 1900 nursery
schools and the operation of a
training program to produce
skilled and semi-skilled en-
ployes which enrolled 100000
persons during the six-year Pc
riod.
There is hardly a community
in the United States that has not
seen some evidences of the &C
tivity' of the WPA. The organi-
zation was the subject of con-
siderable criticism and opponents
delighted. in deriding it's activi-
ties. Nevertheless, the organiza-
ton performed creditably and it
is now. generally recognized that
much of the criticism was based
upon antagonism to the idea
that the Government owed en-
ployment to anybody.
This viewpoint has largely die
appeared because thoughtful
Americans. recognize that any
future depression will result in
some organization similar to the
WPA. There are few individ-
uals left to assert that a govern
mental do nothing" policy is
justified when millions of Amer
leans, willing to work, face pri-
walton and starvation.
Consequently there will be
general agreement with the
Presidents statement that the
WPA has earned ian honorable
discharge" for good job well
done and with a high sense of
integrity.
