now, would they give me treatment
in a prison hospital?" he mused as
he looked back with despair upon his
twelve year fight to gain exoneration
for a wartime fi.-t fight ar.d his sub
sequent desertion. The president,
rending back to congress a bill which
would have given 3G year old Mc
Ham all the benefits of an honor
ably discharged soldier, cited a t&
pert from Secretary Dern, who point
ed out McHam had left the army aft
er being allowed to re-enlist to ex
punge his dishonorable discharge.
"I was sent overseas to kill, did
more than my share cf it, and was
kicked out because of a common fist

record time in 1922 but learned, he

Washington, March 5. The civil
works program is expected to end
March 30. a full month ahead of the
scheduled closing announced last
week by President Roosevelt.
Harry L. Hopkins, emergency re
lief and civil works administrator,
announced today that all civil work3
employes in cities of five thousand or
ever would be dropped from civil
works March 30 and taken over by
work divisions of state and local re
lief administrations April 1.
A definite announcement as to final
j disposition of the program in rural
arc-as, where demobilization is pro
ceeding rapidly, is expected on Hop
l ins' return March 10 from a brief
acation.
Ends in Dakota Now.
The entire program or c:v:i works
was ended today in North Dakota and
South Dakota and in the drouth areas
of Minnesota and Kansas. Similar
action may be taken shortly in drouth
areas of Wisconsin.
Demobilization will continue dur
ing the next four weeks as originally
planned. It was pointed out that vir
tually all of the 1,500,000 persons
who will be oa the pay rolls March
Z0 will be in cities. The plan for de
mobilization calls for far more rapid I
disbanding of work forces in the
country than in cities. This is due
to the fact that farm work is begin
ning and most of the rural workers
uill find some sort of occupation.
The persons who will be trans
ferred to work divisions will cease
to be federal employes. They will be
come employes of the state and local
relief organizations. While on civil
works they were classed as federal
employee and as such received the
benefits cf federal insurance in event
cf accident or death. They were paid
Ly government checks. Hopkins taid
a new pian ior payment is uun.o
worked cut.
Checkup on Need.
Only those who can show need wiil
bo employed under the new plan.
The need will be checked by the staff
of local relief administrations act
ing under the state administration.
Only ona person in a family will be
given work. Only able-bodied per
sons will be given jobs, others be
ing cared for by direct relief. j
The federal emergency relief ad-'
ministration will aliot funus to tne
various states on the basis of needs.
This money will be spent by local
and state administrations which also
will be required to supply a share cf
the cost of operation.
Wages will be the local prevailing
rate but not less than 30 cents an
hour. Hours of labor will be 24 a
