Controversial 130 Hour Regulation Held Unbreakable
The 130 hour work month for WPA employees, backed by President Roosevelt, can only be changed by an act of Congress. He said in Washington that only in extreme emergencies could adjustments occur. WPA Commissioner Harrington lacks authority to waive the rule, touching off widespread strikes last week. The Workers Alliance planned nationwide protests, with Lasser signaling a return to work if dismissed workers are reinstated. Union leaders in Philadelphia and Washington weighed in as violence and project closures sparked debates on compliance and policing.
