ABANDON CASH FOR WORKMEN ON ‘MADE' JOBS Move to Broaden Plan to Care for All Relief Applicants. Broadening of the, “made work” plan to make It apply to all applicants for relief in Marion county was begun today, following a meeting of relief workers in the Chamber of Commerce Monday afternoon. Co-operation of city, county u.nd school city officials *o create more Jobs than when they were called upon to create last winter is assured, according to William H. Book, secretary of tne general committee on stabilization. Through the winter, the emergency work committee has been making small cash payments in Addition to providing baskets to laborers. Under the new plan, the cash payments will cease. Mounting expenditures that have nearly exhausted funds of township and city relief agencies is forcing the relief administrators to turn to the “made work” program in which, it is expected, all able-bodied men applying for relief will be given , work. “We are broadening the emergency work plan because it has proved a success,” Book declared. Herman Lleber is chairman of the special committee inaugurating the program and is assisted by Walter Clarke, attorney for the Center k township trustee; Bowman Elder, W. A. Hacker, assistant superintendent of the city schools; Charles Holtman, Center township advisory board member, and Waller Boetcher, council member.

LEGGE DENIES FARM BOARD DEATH NEAR Reports of Dissolution “Premature,” Says Former Chairman. By Uniter Press CHICAGO, April 7.—Reports that the federal farm board might pass out of existence are “premature,” Alexander H. Legge, who resigned recently as chairman of the board to •esume the presidency of the . International Harvester Company, said Monday night. While Legge was speaking, the Farmers’ National Grain Corporation, affiliated with the farm board, issued a report showing that its net profits from operations for the fiscal year ending Feb. 28 were $666,266.84. “I have been called a rat deserting a sinking ship, but I’m not a rat and the ship is not sinking,’” Legge told the Junior Chamber of Commerce.

BY BEN STERN ALTHOUGH it seems to be a foregone conclusion that Gov- • ernor Harry G. Leslie will reappoint to the highway commission I its chairman, Albert J. Wedeking, | Dale banker, whose term expires ! April 17, much criticism is being | aroused because both the chairman ! and the director, John J, Brown, ; Rockport, are from the same j county. Critics of the highway commis[sion point out that practically all | western and central Indiana is without representation on the board. The three members, besides Wedeking, are Jess Murden (Rep.) | of Miami county; Arthur P. Melton '(Dem.), Lake county, and Robert B. Boren (Dem.), Wayne county. Both Democratic and Republican leaders of the western and central sections are urging that they be given representation on the commission. * a a PROTESTS will, of course, be of no avail. Leslie is sure to reappoint Wedeking, who helped engineer the ouster of Director John D. Williams in 1929, and thus paved the way for the appointment of Brown, who temporarily was acting as secretary to the Governor and, sometimes, it is said, as Governor. Incidentally, despite the lambasting he got from the senate highway probe committee for his alleged “ignorance of everything connected with the operations of the highway department,” Brown’s deep bass continues to reverberate undiminished and his self confidence has in no evident manner been weakened. ' It did, however, seem to put a quietus on the persistent story that Brown was being groomed by Leslie to be his successor.. ADMIT WOMAN TO BAR Mrs. Jessie Van Arsdale Becomes Marion County Member.
