Relic plan proposed by Vandenberg in relief debate
Senator Vandenberg proposes a states rights relief plan replacing direct WPA funding with a federal grants in aid system. A nonpartisan board would allocate funds to state boards with 25 percent matching, increasing total outlay to 2.41 billion for next year. Senate backers seek enumerated projects ready to start within days, urging rapid action and expansion of subsistence loans and rural aid.
