Felton Says the 20.061 Persons Now
Working are All that Can be
Cared for at This Time.
"With a total of 20,061 persons re
ported employed on work projects in
Nebraska by the area statistical of
fice, State WPA Administrator Felton
has announced that he instructed
district directors several days ago it
would be impossible for them to put
additional persons to work on pro
jects. The present number of work
ers will be maintained by reassigning
them to new projects when they com
plete work now under way.
Felton said. "Nebraska now has
employed aa many persons as funds
alloted to the state will permit. Un
til such time as additional funds are
auowea Dy comptroller Mccarl, we
will be unable to give the balance of
unemployed in the state jobs. The
state WPA organization is prepared
to give work to all certified unem
ployed as rapidly as tne money is
available, but we cannot expand fur
ther until additional funds are allot
ted." Of the total of 20.0G1 now employ
ed on WPA jobs in the state, 17,254
have been drawn from the certified
relief rolls, while 343 are non-relief
workers. The source of the balance
of workers, totaling 2,4 64 is not dis
closed. The figures for the six districts
are as follows:
District 1 2,622 relief, 49 non
relief. Total, 2,990.
District 2 6,924 relief, 9S non
relief. Total, 8.043.
District 3, of which Cass county Is
a part 3,793 relief, 42 non-relief.
Total. 4,392.
District 4 2,138 relief, 84 non-
relief. Total, 2.446.
District 5 1.133 relief, 41 non-
relief. Total, 1,378.
District 6 644 relief, 29 non-re
lief. Total. 812.
In the third, or Lincoln district,
Lancaster county leads with 1,479
relief, 15 non-relief. Total, 1,798.
Cass county has 47 relief and four
non-relief. Total, 75. Otoe county
has 222 relief. 1 non-relief. Total.
228. Nemaha county has .150 relief,
1 non-relief. Total, 167. Richardson
county has 23.7 relief, 11 non-relief.
Total. 271.
Sarpy county. In district 2, has 65
relief and 2 non-relief. Total 67.
Douglas county leads the state,
with 6,777 relief and 96 non-relief.
Total. 7,882, or more than a third of
the number employed in the entire
state. Incidentally, the rate of pay in
Douglas county is the highest of any
county in the state for all four clas
sifications of labor, ranging from the
common labor class, which draws $32
a month in Cass county and $45 in
Douglas county, up to the profession
al type, which is the highest paid,
drawing $48 in Cass county and $79
in Douglas county.
From this compilation, it is quite
evident that Douglas county is not
only receiving more than a third of
the total number of jobs but close to
half of the money being expended
for labor, with material expenditures
probably running equally as high.
Except for Butler and Polk coun
ties, with 45 and 16 respectively,
Cass county with 75 total number of
employed, is the lowest county in the
Lincoln district.
FLAYS DEUTKINO BY GIRLS
Philadelphia, January 1 Denis

archdiocese of Philadelphia criticized
drinking by girls "who are encour
aged by their mothers in order that
they may pass for up to date mem

made at his annual reception to rep
resentatives of diocesan societies.
"Time was," he said, "when it
would blast a young girl's chance to
get married if it leaked out that she
drank. Now, in too many cases,
young women drink publicly and
sometimes have to be carried out In
an intoxicated condition from hotels,
taprooms and private dwellings."
Cardinal Dougherty praised the
efficiency of diocesan total abatinance
societies.
