Roosevelt Focuses on Restoring Government Pay Next July
President Roosevelt announced at a semi weekly press conference that full restoration of government pay cuts will be recommended for July 1, restoring 5 percent to reach the 1932 level. He warned against expecting changes by January 1 and discussed budget plans, relief expenditures, and potential tax legislation tied to relief and public works. The administration released a relief report on cattle in the drought area showing substantial processing contracts and rail shipments, with monthly relief spending around 142 million dollars. An executive order merged the executive and national emergency councils under Donald Richberg, adding to the administration’s central leadership.
