Job spreading in all trades asked at once
President Roosevelt’s cabinet considered action to spread employment and raise minimum wages across industries. Public Works Administration approved 40 million dollars for roads in nine states as part of a job creation drive, bringing total road funding to 166.5 million and signaling more allocations as a 750 million federal building program is trimmed. William Green of the AFL pledged investigations into shorter workweek discharges and reported union loyalties and non union favoritism in protests over job losses.

Canal planover New Jersey by Raritan route
Arthur Brisbane notes in The Globe that General Atterbury supports leasing the Raritan Canal to the Pennsylvania Railroad for 999 years. He argues a canal across New Jersey would shorten the water route between New York and Philadelphia from 275 to 90 miles, reducing coastal shipping risks and honoring Roosevelt.

Fight Planned To Save Local Airline Route
Senator Clint Small described a Monday Oklahoma City air mail conference opposing possible elimination of the Amarillo to St. Louis route via Oklahoma City. He plans to confer with Congressman Marvin Jones before action. Officials said the federal budget for air mail and lighted airways would be cut and lines under contract may face about 25 percent reductions. Transcontinental and Western Air operates the Amarillo route and wants to preserve it for oil traffic and mail linkages to the West Coast. Fort Worth and Central Texas seek to drop the Oklahoma City leg in favor of El Paso routes, though abandonment has been discussed due to sparse population and duplication with Amarillo. Telegrams and letters noted.
