PWA IS TO HIRE MORE WORKERS. NEC AID STATES 78 Projects Are Yet to Be Started in Indiana, Hutchinson Says. With 90 projects now under construction and 78 yet to be started, the Public Works Administration in Indiana is to continue to employ more persons in heavy building construction during the spring and summer months, Louis Hutchinson, National Emergency Council administrative assistant, predicts. More than 2000 men now are employed, he said in a radio address last night. "As you know,” he said, ‘‘the PWA program is financed by outright grants and loans, to the sponsoring governmental unit. Under the initial PWA program the grant was 30 per cent of the cost of the project. Under the Emergency Relief Act of 1935 ihe outright grant was increased to 45 per cent. "Statisticians of the PWA reported today that more than 60 per cent of the public works money thus far spent has gone for material manufactured. This has blanketed the country with indirect and industrial employment far exceeding the direct employment given on construction sites where the materials were used. Termed Major Factor "These expenditures have been a major factor in the revival of the heavy industries, where unemployment was greater than anywhere else during the depression. Manufacture of the materials required to complete unfinished projects will help to sustain the heavy industries at their present high level of operation. "Here in Marion County the public works has 13 approved projects which are to cost $5,769,537. Among them are anew sewer system at Beech Grove, work on the Indianapolis World War Memorial, a garbage and sewage disposal plant for Indianapolis, a water works at Lawrence, a testing laboratory for the State Highway Commission and four new school buildings. "The PWA is only one of the agencies that has been created by the government during the last two years for the purpose of taking men ofi the relief rolls and putting them on pay rolls. The other agencies have supplemented the $5,000,000 program of the PWA by an additional $15,552,739 during the two-year period.” Vital Statistics Marriage Licenses (Incorrect addresses frequently are given to tbe Marriage License Bureau deliberately.

BETTER SCHOOL GROUNDS URGED Purdue Landscape Expert Seeks Beautification of State Sites. School properties of Indiana are some of the most desolate spots than can be found, according to R. B. Hull, landscape expert, Purdue Horticultural Extension Department. Mr. Hull, speaking before a group of county community leaders at a training school meeting yesterday in the county agricultural agent’s office, said: "Children spend most of the day at school and the suroundings should be as attractive as possible. Most of the grounds are even devoid of shade trees.” The extension service is attempting to enlarge on a program of beautification of all rural community, home and church properties through the utilization of native trees and shrubs, he said. Heretofore farmers have been content to live on their farms without regard for looks. Recently, however, they have become beautification conscious and have started to make homes instead of just farms of their land, he asserted. The extension service is to assist in the landscaping. This is done by a detailed drawing showing the physical layout. W. B. Ward, also of the department, explained functions of the Hoosier Garden Club. Its aim, he said, is to provide through recommended varieties of vegetables and fruits, efficient planning, proper fertilization and pest control, sufficient foods for each member of the family.

TRUCKERS ASKED TO OBSERVE ROAD LIMIT Saving in Road Repair Costs Is Pointed Out by Traffic Group. Truck line operators today were asked by the Indiana Motor Traffic Association to observe the three-ton gross road limit for certain state roads imposed by the Highway Commission. Adjoining states have started enforcement of limitation laws. Indiana road maintenance costs will be cut if the load limit is observed, the announcement stated. The Highway Commission limit applies mainly to short strips of secondary roads, or macadam and low-type pavements of retread character.
