Talk:Federal Writers' Project

message: In paragraph four of the body, we find this quote:
:"Blakey (2005) estimates that at any one time the Indiana office had fewer than 150 men and women on the payroll."
The article does not discuss individual states' participation outside of this quote.  So, the question is, what relevance does it hold to the topic?  Anyone?  Help would be greatly appreciated  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.132.129.225 (talk) 22:12, 24 February 2008 (UTC)

message: Another project that is probably worth mentioning in this article is the ex-Slave Narratives, something that was a part of the Federal Writers project.  As the Slave Narratives article directs to this page, it would probably be worthwhile to add this topic.
:Dear anonymous, I'm not sure when you wrote your comment but I just added about slave narratives and Grapes of Wrath and social context, a few minutes ago before turning to the discussion page and seeing your comments but there is now something about the slave narratives, with 3 links. --Harel (talk) 18:44, 11 February 2010 (UTC)

message: Sentence in the "Controversies" section says: "By 1939, HUAC's tactics seemed to work, and the newly elected Congress cut $150,000 million from WPA budget, while quadrupling HUAC's funding."
Presumably this is either $150,000 or $150 million? The source is offline, so I can't check.

replies: text: The DeMasi book (p213) seems to have provided that text: In The WPA: Creating Jobs and Hope in the Great Depression (Opdycke, 2016), in the details of the 1939-1940 Emergency Relief bill, it says On the other hand, The Great Depression (Burg, 2009) says . Obviously, DeMasi (referring to the budget the year before the 1939-1940 Emergency Relief Bill) is a misprint. I think we're safest to just say the budget was cut. I'll change it.
