Efforts To Boost WPA Quota Fail
PIERRE Oct 18 Governor Bushfield relayed Rep Francis Case’s word that attempts to raise South Dakota’s WPA quota have failed. Fred R Rauch assistant WPA commissioner said maximum quotas are in place and an increase is unlikely. Only possible change would require withdrawing quota from another state. Rauch noted efforts align with private employment trends and adjustments as warranted. Bushfield also expected emergency drought area classifications for Bon Homme and Aurora counties to secure Farm Security Administration grants.

An affidavit filed with the State Department alleges the liner Athenia carried coast defense guns for Canada and was to be outfitted as a raider after its voyage to New York. Passenger Gustav A. Anderson, a travel bureau operator from Evanston Illinois, testified after interviewing Chief Officer Copeland who said there were many guns aboard for Halifax and Quebec. Anderson recounted the torpedo attack and his rescue by the Swedish vessel Southern Cross. The affidavit relies on questions from Congressmen Case Brooks and Pierce and follows several similar affidavits obtained from Athenia passengers.
