MILLIONS SPENT ON FREAK JOBS STIR NEW YORK Money for Balkan Maps, Chicken Survey. Amaze Relief Probers. By Cnitf*l Prrtg NEW YORK. April 4 Bewildered New Yorkers learned today that the city's emergency relief oureau has spent more than $2,500,000 for academic lore such as mops of the Balkan Peninsula, the -movements of peoples in the second millemum,” and a ' model of the milestones in social welfare.” The aldermanic committee investigating home and work relief delved into a myriad of subjects while professors in charge of classical and historical research stoutly defended the value of their endeavors. Some of the maps were called “practically priceless," or “cheap if they had cost $2,000,000.” Chicken Survey Rapped A $2,239,648 item aroused much comment. That amount was spent in two duplicate real estate surveys for a mass of data which had been supplied to the department of taxes and assessments in almost as much detail at an intial cost of $1,375. Another endeavor, referred to as the "chicken survey,” sought to find out how many and what kind of fowls housewives bought each week. Thi c project will have cost $101,061 by July 1. Another pioject, costing $160,618, aimed to determine the learning habits of adults. It involved wordcounting. use of a “learning machine” and a bicycle ergometer to measure the cost oi physical work in terms of metabolism used in psychological experimentation. No Use in Bronx In revealing the unusual projects, the investigating committee sought to show that relief workers w ? ere used to gather data of slight value to taxpayers when they might have been assigned to investigate relief applications. Mayor Fiorello H. La Guarriia's special relief committee recently reported that addition of 1000 investigators at a cost of $200.000 a month would result in a net saving of $900,000 by weeding out chiselers.

Vigorous maternal objections, including an appeal to the law, failed to swerve Frances Farmer (above), pretty 21-year-old Seattle co-ed, from her resolve to visit Russia, a trip won in a subscription contest from a radical newspaper. She denies she is interested in Soviet government, but wishes to study Russian drama.
: sor of classics at New York UniI versity, was revealed as having 150 men employed at cartographers at $24 a week. This staff made, among other maps, the following: North sea countries, Vesuvius, British Isles, Italy, Spain, Greece, Asia Minor, Hispania, Gallia, Italia and the Near East. Paul Lloyd Stryker, counsel for the committee, introduced a geographical map showing a list of Greek dialects. i “Is it useful?” he inquired of Dr. Kraemer. The professor admitted it would not be of much use to a Bronx resident. for example. His defense was that his staff would not be efficient in relief investigation. “Men on relief,” Dr. Kraemer said, “have an unfortunate tendency not to be sympathetic with others in like position.” An economic survey of the five boroughs was started in January, 1934, and dropped last month after $317,586 was spent.
