Public Works to
be Continued on
a Limited Scale
Secretary Ickes in the Meantime
May Escape Airing of His Atti
tude Before Senate.
Washington. A smaller scale con
tinuance of the public works and re
settlement administrations, largely
under the financial auspices of Harry
L. Hopkins' work progress adminis
tration, was promised by President
Roosevelt. Coincidentally, Secretary
Ickes, who had announced he would
testify before the senate appropria
tions subcommittee considering the
$2,364,299,712 relief and deficiency
bill, postponed his appearance. When
the time came it was announced the
PWA chief would not appear until
Saturday. Finally Chairman Adams
(d., Colo.), of the senate subcommit
tee, told newsmen that it was "un
likely" Ickes would appear at all. He
added, "We can find out what we
want to know from his records."
In between the first two postpone
ments, the public works administra
tor conferred with President Roose
velt for an hour and a half at lunch
eon. He carried a bulging brief case,
but declined any comment whatever
about his white house conversation.
Presumably to talk over the latest
turn in the relief situation, the pres
ident invited Hopkins and Rexford
G. Tugwell, the resettlement admin
istrator, as guests on a weekend
cruise, embarking at Annapolis.
Preparing to Fold Up.
Rexford G. Tugwell, whose reset
tlement administration would be con
tinued but curtailed, as would Ickes'
agency, already has testified before
the senate committee that his unit
would "fold up" on July 1 unless
given new money.
The committee ha3 before It an
amendment by Senator Hayden (d.,
Ariz.) to expand the relief-deficiency
bill by 700 millions with the money
to be given to the public works ad
ministration. President Roosevelt
has flatly opposed such an allocation
for PWA.
Ickes apparently will not present
his views personally either upon the
Hayden proposal or his own sugges
tion that if he had 75 millions more
he could cancel a projected 25 per
cent slash in his administrative per
sonnel. Even as the chief executive made
his -announcement about continuing
PWA and RA at a press conference,
senators who have importuned the
subcommittee to expand or embark
funds directly for the agencies greet
ed Mr. Roosevelt's assurances that
Hopkins would provide the money by
asking: "How much?" the question
was not answered.
Hayden stated he would confer
shortly with PWA leaders to ascer
tain how much they are likely to get
under the terms of the president's
promise.
Inflated op ordinary dollar
either kind will still buy most if
expended In your frome community-
where a part Is retained to
help meet the tax Duraen and
other community obligations.

PAY OFF SERVICE BONDS
Postmaster Gillaspie of Lincoln,
has received notification from the
post office department at Washing
ton the Lincoln office has been de
signated as one of those selected for
the payment of adjustment service

Washington information in the post
master's hands, to make payment by
check with the name of the post
master to be printed thereon. Checks
to be signed by an employe or em
ployes designed for the purpose. Pro
cedure tentatively adopted provides
that the clerk will be engaged only in
actually signing checks and will not
be responsible for verification or
names, such verificatio nto be done
before check signature.
According to the notice the treas
ury department desires that checks
be mailed the day request for pay
ment i3 received. -This may make It
necessary to designate several signity
clerks. The postmaster sent to Wahs
ington for approval, a list of six offi
cials and employes recommended as
eligible to sign the adjusted service
bonds.

mate would bo about 500,000 less
than theirs.
