Roosevelt seeks 1.477 billion WPA relief bill in new year
President Roosevelt urged Congress to approve 1.477 billion dollars for work relief in the next fiscal year with an additional 25 million for related activities. He defended relief administration as an efficient achievement while House leaders signaled a slow path to action as lawmakers debate fixed funding formulas and state delegation options. The bill would trim current funding and keep about 2 million workers employed on relief rolls, far below this year’s peak.
