WPA Hearing $50,000,000 Public Works Plan Delayed
Washington July 39 The Public Works Administration has proposed a $50 million public works program for President Roosevelt. The president said it is being held to determine how many relief rolls can be reduced and how many workers would be absorbed by each project. He noted the plan aims to stretch the $1.425 billion work relief fund through the year with many small projects and about 20 listed at roughly $30,000 each. Approval may begin within a week and much of the program could be under way this fall.
