Washington July 15 High officials said today that elaborate laws prepared by the National Sources Board based on Roosevelt's $4 000 000 000 work relief plan have been abandoned for the present jobs drive.

Delays came until May after the work relief act passed when spending plans solidified. the Public Works Administration and Hopkins relief office had no independent plans. Free Gas at Hudson's Adv.
