PWA Grants Include Iowa University Project
The Public Works Administration allotted 24.54 million dollars for 215 non federal projects. Of these, 45.5 thousand went to two Iowa projects including 35.5 thousand for building work at the University of Iowa and 10 thousand for Elma street improvements. The Iowa university grant covered 30 percent of 116.307 thousand for five building additions and repairs in Town City. Many allocations aid drought areas in the west as the vast PWA fund nears depletion. PWA says expenditures support about 700,000 on site jobs and possibly twice that in related industries.
