Federal Grants In Projects Cut By Roosevelt Plan
Washington reports that President Roosevelt endorsed a shift to faster, lower cost works programs. The move reallocates United Relief contributions to state and municipal PWA projects with private financing possible, totaling about 2 billion dollars under Hopkins W P A administration. Officials say wages average around 850 dollars with materials, and no PWA housing or nonfederal allotments have yet been approved.
