The Municipal Loan Board today announced its first loan of State funds to a flood-stricken Indiana city. It loaned $50,000 to New Albany for repairing damage done by January floods. The 10-year loan carries 3 per cent interest charges. ¢ William P. Cosgrove,
State Accounts Board chief examiner, said interest payments will not start until Jan. 1, 1939, and interest and one-twentieth of the. principal are to be due semiannually after July 1, 1939. He said the time extension was given to enable New Albany to “get on its feet.” The loan was the first from a million-dollar fund set up by the 1937 Legislature. Members of the Loan Board are Governor Townsend, State Auditor Laurence Sullivan, Treasurer of State Peter F. Hein, and Mr. Cosgrove. The board also announced today it had approved a $60,000 loan to Clark County, $40,000 payable immediately and $20,000 when the
RUSH WPA JOBS TO COMPLETION, FOREMEN TOLD
Officials Eager to Finish}
City Projects Before July 1 Deadline.
WPA ‘foremen today had been ordered to speed work on every important Federal-aid: building project here to meet the July 1, 1938, deadline, when the present WPA program expires. a John K. Jennings, State WPA administrator, yesterday outlined to City officials plans for the completion of 11. City improvements. Meanwhile Street Commisisoner Fred Eisenhut requested additional WPA digging crews to repair sewer cave-ins. .
Terms System Antiquated
“The breakdown of the sewers was, a result of an antiquated system, one that has not kept pace with City development,” Mr. Eisenhut said. “ Mr. Jennings explained that the July 1 expiration date did not preclude applications for new projects in the meantime. He said, however, all projects started must be completed on that date. Completion of the Fall Creek boulevard system between Millersville Road and Ft..Benjamin Harrison, and a City park development program included in a recently approved $900,000 WPA allotment were assured by July 1, Mr. Jennings said. Rush Sewer Work
Plans were made to rush work on the 21st St. sewer, and the rebuilding of the Harding St. sewer to meet the deadline. : Other projects to be speeded include the Shelby St. bridge over Pleasant Run, rebuilding of the 10th St. bridge over White River, reconstruction of the New York St. bridge over White River, reconditioning of unimproved streets, and smoke abatement program. Nine additional WPA projects for Indiand were approved yesterday by Mr. Jennings. None was for Marion County.

Eliminate Dangerous Curves,
Road Project Sponsors Told
John K. Jennings, State Works Progress Administration head, today announced that sponsors of county road projects are to be asked to emphasize elimination of dangeYous curves and sharply inclined railroad
crossings.
Inclined railroad crosisngs, he said, are regarded as one of the great-
est menaces to traffic safety.
Such crossings shut off the view of the
motorist until he is on the tracks and tend to stall the car engine.
Mr. Jennings said it would be bet- &
ter to improve safety conditions on roads than to concentrate on ditch digging and grading activities. Under the direction of county highway superintendents, the state administrator is expecting hundreds of WPA workers to be used in improving dangerous conditions at

railroad crossings. The work can be done, he explained, by making fills and grading highways back a distance of 50 to 75 feet on either side of the grade to make the approaches to the tracks level. By removing the inclines motorists are afforded a clear view up and down the tracks. Improvement of dangerous crossings in cities also is to be encour= aged, according to the state admin-
istrator. In municipalities this type of work is prosecuted in connection with street improvement projects.
