CWA Payroll for State Million and a Quarter Christmas List of Workers Drops Slightly Wcrk Provided for Teachers. HOLDS FUUERAL SERVICE Statistician Mehner will report to the state CWA committee at its meet ing at the capitol that the payroll for the veek ending Dec. 2S was $315, 532. This makes a total of $1,237, 059 paid out in the rtate of Nebraska since the first payroll was started late in November, a total of six weeks, one of which was a short week. Dur ing the past week the number of peo ple on CWA jobs dropped from 27. S15 to 27,725. The number on CWA jobs during the past weeks was 562, an increase. The decrease of men on CWA jobs dropped because of bad weather and Christmas holidays, it is alleged. Chairman Smith said the state com mittee would discuss and fix wages for work relief teachers of whom 11S have been approved and submit ted by State Superintendent Taylor for employment. Nineteen teachers had previously been approved by the state committee. Discussion of what to do with single men who have no families and who have been given no relief and cannot get CWA jobs because they are single will be taken up by the committee. Most of these single men are in cities. George Thomas of the Seward coun ty committee reported that every per son in that county able to work is new off the relief list and employed on CWA jobs. The county was given 5500 federal relief funds in Novem ber just before CWA Jobs opened, and this -money has not been used. Work for more than fifty addition al women on CWS projects to cost nearly $5,000 were announced as ap proved by the state committee.

Her task was to assist relief workers in helping needy fam ilies make relief and CWA money go as far as possible. Relief allotments expected neces sary for January were being com puted during the morning, but Ran dal! Biart said many counties, despite CWA funds, would need more direct relief grants this month than in De cember because of heavier demands in winter. Douglas county was al loted $100,000 last month and has asked $146,000 for thi3 month. Biart said he would recommend that the state committee allow this amount and possibly $150,000 for January.

The advent of Rummel into the game late in the first quarter had served to give the Storz more ginger and at the half they had accumulated fix. while the Harkerts had sixteen. Rummel played a fine floor game and on the defense was outstanding. While the opening of the second half the brewer lads had apparently benefited by the confernce as they started to go places with the boys from up the river and soon had the Y. M.-C. A. league leaders trying to stem the attack that wa gradually whittling down the lead of the visi tors. At the end of the third quar ter the visitors had 21 points while the Storz had acquired 1C and were within striking distance of their fee. In the last quarter Rummel. Donat and Krejci were bombarding the bas ket of the Harkerts and in the dra matic last moments of the game it was tied and then placed out in front by Hartford for the win for the Storz and keeping their record unblemish ed for the season.
