District WPA rolls face big slash in Pennsylvania
The WPA employment rolls in Pennsylvania may be cut by about 4,200 workers, with total WPA jobs dropping from 90,000 to 80,000 in the state. President Roosevelt and WPA administrator Harrington estimate a $160 million cut would force layoffs of about one million workers nationwide, impacting Erie and other areas. If the cut proceeds, Erie’s local load could fall from about 9,800 to 6,400, and state officials warn this would strain relief and stability.
