HIGHWAY WORK TO BEGIN WHEN FROSTOEPARTS 145 Projects Affecting 800 Miles to Start When Weather Permits. Most of the 145 projects in the 800 miles of state highways to be improved with funds advanced by the Works Progress Administration are to be started as soon as frost is out of the ground and weather is suitable. James D. Adams, State Highway Commission chairman, said today that maintenance engineers from the highway commission’s district offices have been engaged for a week in the preparation of plans for the projects in their districts. In the general program submitted by the commission and approved by WPA, provision was made for shoulder and culvert widening, elimination of hazardous curves and grades, sodding of banks to prevent erosion, general landscaping and drainage work. Shoulder and culvert widening, started in 1933 as an unemployment relief measure, has been most effective in reducing accidents and fatalities in the widened sections of the state highway system, Mr. Adams said. Plus increased gaiety for motorists, the new program is expected to add materially to the attractiveness of the highway system. Several thousand men are to be employed on this program, which must be completed by Aug. 1 under terms of the WPA approval. A. F. OF L.

School building construction form the major contracts to be approved. Papers are on file with Indiana's PWA seeking $63,000,000 for projects.

Some Held in Abeyance With but $5,765,317 allocated to the state, numerous sewage disposal projects, estimated at $12,000,000, have been held in abeyance. “The major portion of the $5,765,317 went to the state’s schools and smaller projects in an effort to spread the grants as far as possible,” Mr. Logan pointed out.

officials hope that Congress will budget funds for Indiana for outright grants to municipalities, and thereby augment the dwindling funds. Revolving Fond Is Aid A revolving PWA fund for loans to municipalities and corporations will continue to provide money for school cities and towns. It is the belief of PWA officials that money from this fund might be used as the funds are made available for outright grants as well as loans on projects that await approval of the engineers.
