12.000 MORE STATE MEN TO GET PWA JOBS 28 New Projects May Be Started Within Next Sixty Days. The Indiana machinery of the public works administration should be thrown into high gear within the next sixty days to give work to an additional 12.000 men in the state. Otto p. Deluse. chairman of the state PWA advisory board, announced today. Approximately 12.800 PWA workers are engaged on twenty-four projects in Indiana at the present time. Mr. Deluse revealed. Within the next sixty days, an equal number of men should be taken from county relief rolls to start work on the majority of the twenty-eight remaurng projects granted Indiana. Word that the entire amount of the $3,300,000 appropriation by congress has been alocated to the various states for PWA projects was received by Mr. Deluse today from PWA offices in Washington. Although it is not known what share of this appropriation will go | to Indiana, it is hoped that the sum! will be sufficient to obtain additional j projects for the state in the near futifre. $7,000,000 Already Spent Os the fifty-two projects approved by the PWA for Indiana since August. actual work has started on eighteen highway construction jobs and six other projects. Over $7,000,000 already has been granted Indiana for PWA construction work. This money will be used to construct new highways, build bridges, water works, sewage disposal plants and municipal light plants. Additional units to college buildings will be constructed at Purdue, Ball State college and Indiana State Normal at Terre Haute, with PWA ! funds. Delay in starting the remaining j twenty-eight projects granted has been due to red tape in Washington occasioned by the flood of projects under consideration. Dr. Deluse said. Bonds Must Be Adjusted Before work starts on the proj- ! ects. the blue prints and specifications must be approved in Washington. Bond contracts between the PWA and the municipalities also must be adjusted before actual construction begins. With these technical difficulties expected to be cleared in the next few weeks, an army of men can be placed on the PWA pay roll in Indiana. Mr. Deluse asserted. Mr. Deluse said that the Indiana advisory board hopes to obtain the approval of thirty to forty more projects for the state through future appropriations. A file of requests for PWA grants are stacked in the advisory board office and will be submitted to Washington for approval just as soon as Indiana receives additional grants he revealed. Members of the Indiana advisory board are Otto P. Deluse. chairman; Lew G. Ellingham. Ft. Wayne, and John Napier Dyer. Vincennes.
