Economist Urges U. 5.
NOT 10 Compete With
Private Construction
BY ROBERT ]. LEWIS.

Government should refrain from
rushing into a gigantic public
works program which would tend tc
compete with private construction, >
Frank E. PioVia, consultant to the
Senate Small Business Committee
said yesterday.
Speaking before the Washington
Congress in the Mayf1ower Hotel
Mr.. Piovia, economist on leave from
the Producers Council since last
February, said:
Private industry should be given
the chance to step up its output
from the low levels to which it has
been forced during the war"
A heavy program of Government
public works, he added, would com
pete for materials and "the very
labor to which private construction
would otherwise furnish employ
ment."
FavorS Advance Planning.
Supporting advance planning, Mr.
Plovia said the Government could
appropriate more funds for State
and local governments wishing to
chart a backlog of future public
works. He advised. however, that
Use Of such funds be limited only
for useful public works which are
needed to round out our national
and community life"
Urging the programming of public
works so they can be built when
needed or whenever falling off
of private construction requires
stepping up of public construction, -
the economist added:
Planning must not be of a ma
ture which will lead to a revival of
WPA ideas"
Beavy Building Volume Seen.
Pointing out that competent econ
omiSts believe the United States will
reach an annual construction VOL
ume Of $4,000, 900 900, or 43 per cent
more than in any peacetime year,
Mr.. Piovia said that at such level
the Districts share would proba bly,
amount to Sl50,000000.
The Senate Small Business Com
mittee Is interested in the construc-
ton industry because it is small
business and at the same time the
Nations largest nonagricultural ac-
tivity, he said
In the District. he explained, g.
of every 100 contract construction
firms in 1889 handled an annual
volume of business of less than S25,-
000. On countrywide basis. he
said, 81 of every 100 firms had an
annual volume of less than $25,OOO

for this exclusive privilege.
Directors point out further that
because an agency receives sup
port from the Community Fund
does not mean that agency does not
b other sources OF income. In
fact. it is the function and respon-
sibility OF a community fund to
give financial assistance to health,
welfare and recreation agencies
only To the extent Of supplying
them with funds necessary to COW
er the difference between what they
need TO operate their program and
the income they may get from other
sources. This is considered good
practice and tends to give an agen-
cy greater strength and self-reli-
ance without in any way restricting
the use of that agency to the peo-
pie who need its service, it was
pointed out Fees and charges are
never applied so rigidly as to ex-
clude aU person or group from
getting the service that the Com
munity Fund desires to have avail
able to everyone in the community,
il was stated.
President Raymon Bair appoint
ed a committee to work with the
secretary in mapping out pro-
gram of public information, the
purpose of which is to keep the
citizens of the community informed
from time to time throughout the
year as to the activities that are
being carried out with the money
which is raised by the Communi-
ty Fund each fall
The Board approved the outline
of a suggested overall city wide
recreation program and authorized
the ALLEGATION of $1,000 to help fin
ance such a program if it is adopt
ed, this money to be made avail
able during the - month period
beginning July l. 1915.
The Board decided to hold its
next regular meeting the last
Thursday of April at Gilbert Com
munity House.

have died from starvation. The
campaign starts April immediate
ly following Easter Sunday.
Mr., Wiltse has announced that
he plans for volunteer collections
at schools and churches April s to
10. He is confident that the War
time Council of the Schools will
bring the results comparable to
the various bond and paper drives
held at various times throughout
the war effort.
What is needed according 10 the
members of the committee, is good
substantial clothing for both sum.
mer and winter wear. Even IL the
money were available, clothing
is not to be obtained in Europe
nor in the Philippines. Although
clothing may not be in good re-
pair it must be useful to the peo-
pie who will receive it. Under
clothing and all types of cotton
garments should be washed be-
fore they are sent but they need
not be ironed.
Plans are being completed so
that clothing may be received in
