Finn Outlines State Position in Relief Work
Edward R. Finn, district engineer for the Pennsylvania Department of Highways, explains that relief labor supplied by the County Relief Board in food orders is used for ditch cleaning, cross drains, and slides. Regular department work pays 40 cents per hour and uses lists from the Welfare Board, with three days per man before lists are reposted. The arrangement keeps relief labor from interfering with regular workers and aims to distribute work evenly among county men.
