Tan PROJECTS LIES WITH CONGRESS

Funds for Further Work Are. Available Only Until Jan. 20.

BY ROBERT W. HORTON Times Special Writer

WASHINGTON, Dec. ~All WPA projects will be suspended not later than Jan. 20 unless Congress, which meets Jan. 5, finds a short cut to

| | provide more funds at once.

In allocating $152,000,000 for expenditure in December, WPA scraped close to the bottom of its

reserve. Such funds as remain will not carry its two and a half million employes farther than Jan. 20. The December grants were about $8,000,000 less than November's and about $16,000,000 under October. Aubrey Williams, acting WPA administrator in Harry L. Hopkins’ - absence, has ordered state adminis- . trators to make no commitments in December which can not be cove cred by funds already granted. Previously, state administrators had enough leeway to earmark funds in excess of one month’s grants in the expectation of financing them out ot subsequent grants. This new ruling accounts for reports from many states that “WPA rolls are being drastically reduced, throwing hundreds of persons on 0 local direct relief.

Set No New Quotas

“We have set no new quotas for WPA employment,” Williams said today. : “Up to date ave have funds and we are approving new projects daily, but only those which can be coms

pleted by the time our present funds expire.” He admitted that WPA faces an impossible situation unless Congress acts promptly. - “When Congress passed the last WPA appropriation we believed that increased private employment would enable us to keep our expenditures for the fiscal year within two billion dollars. “But two things have happened. First, business improved but re-em-ployment has failed to reduce our rolls more than about 3 per cent a month. This is because employers have - drawn more heavily from those unemployed not on relief. “Second, the drought has had a tremendous effect on our finances. To assume responsibility for 260,000 or more drought cases has taken $300,000,000, which would otherwise have carried us into March.”

Transfer 250,000 Cases

Williams said that a plan to re turn the 250, drought cases to the . Resettlement Administration had been completed and that the transfer was under way. But he foresaw some trouble because the average grant under WPA has been about $40 a month while RA will be able to pay only $20. or seriousness of the situation is evidenced by repoxts of strikes and other disturbances in various cities following reductions in WPA personnel.
