WPA WILL DROP 4000 SATURDAY
Further Culs in in April to Bring All-Time Low in Rolls, Jennings Says.
Approximately 4000 workers will be dropped from the Indiana WPA rolls Saturday in conformity with a national reduction in tie WPA’s winter relief load, State Administrator John K. Jennings announced today. Further WPA cuts will come in April, the Administrator said, bringing total WPA employment in the State to a new all time low. The State rolls which now stand at 47,000—the lowest February load since 1935—will be slashed to 43,000
during March, a low for that month. Mr. Jennings said he was unable to predict the extent of reduction in April, but indicated he expected it to be drastic. In addition to the relief, a 13 per cent reduction of mon-relief office and administrative personnel will be made in accordance with WPA policy of keeping administrative
personnel in ratio to reliefers.
“The proposed reduction in work relief and administrative employment is not only occasioned by national defense activity, but also by a Shoviags of funds,” Mr. Jennings sai The Administrator previously had indica that the WPA is rapidly reachin t he terms a “core” of persons who, because of age or inoo have few opportunities for jobs Increasing business and industrial activity, he said, have absorbed a great many skilled workers on WPA. There are virtually no skilled workers left on the rolls, and WPA workers now are being hired as unskilled labor, he said.

BRITISH IGNORE
GERMAN RADIO
They. Listen But D But Don’t Take Propaganda Seriously, Survey Shows.
ATLANTIC CITY, N. J. Feb. 27 (U. P.) —Dr. Henry Durant, director of the British Institute of Public
Opinion, said today that surveys|;
showed 60 per cent of British radio listeners tuned in the German radio, but did not take the Nazi propaganda seriously. Even in the dark days of last May and June, Dr. Durant said in an
address before the American Association of School Administrators, a British opinion survey showed that only 3 per cent of the people believed their country would lose the war. During the war, British feeling that the German people, rather than the Hitler leadership is the enemy, has increased to 52 per cent, he said. The famed “Lord Haw Haw” of the German radio, who had a pronounced Oxford accent, has been replaced by a glum speaker, Dr. Durant said, and the British Broadcasting Corp. has dubbed him “Sinister Sam.” It was discovered that 60 per cent of English listeners tuned in on Lord Haw Haw and later Sinister Sam, but they did not take either seriously, he said.

Approximately 2500 workers, chiefly unskilled, will be employed at the proposed $11,500,000 Gqvern-ment-owned brass cartridge case plant to be constructed in Marion County, west of the city. Officials of the Bridgeport Brass Co., Bridgeport, Conn., which will establish the factory under Government financing, declined to give

GITY IS PROPOSED AS AIRMAIL ‘PICKUP’ HUB
A group of Indianapolis men, including several attorneys, today petitioned the Civil Aeronautics Board for permission to establish a seven-state airmail and express
“pickup” and carrier service. Incorporated as the Mercury D.velopment Corp., the group, headed by Harold L. Plummer, president, former assistant national adjutant of the American Legion, seeks to establish seven feeder carrier routes in Indiana, Illinois, southern Michigan, Tennessee, eastern Missouri, western Ohio and Kentucky, with headquarters in Indianapolis. The company, which is operating a headquarters at 301 Underwriters Bldg., plans to open its main office in the new Roscoe Turner air school hangar at the Municipal Airport if petition is granted by the CAB. The plan of the Mercury Co. ds modeled on an airmail pickup and carrier service established in Pennsylvania. Under the system, airmail and express would be picked up by planes in flight with special equipment and dropped at other points
A total of 135 cities in the seven states would be served by the line. Action by CAB on the petition is ex-
