Through these additional funds the administration intends to increase the part-time work of men now on relief rolls so that they may be put on a self-sustaining basis. It is intended that two million men shall be put on a self-sustaining basis by Nov. 16 and that an addi- tional two million men may be put on this basis by Dec. 15. Harty Hopkins, the federal relief administrator, will direct the civil works administration. ‘ The president has laid down the principle of a 30-hour week for the workers he intends to employ. Roosevelt believes that by this one stroke at elast two-thirds of the fam- ilies in the country now receiving re- lief will be removed, at least in part, from relief rolls, Approximately three million fami- lies are now being cared for by pub- lic relief agencies, according to white house estimates. This is a reduction since April of 1,500,000 families. The president has been informed that during Septem- ber alone 250,000 families were taken off relief rolls, representing about one million persons. Other recovery signs noted Wed- nesday at the White House were: A rise in farm prices for the week ending Oct. 25 from an index figure of 50 to 52. A rise in prices paid by farmers of less than one per cent. A decrease in retail food prices of one per cent. An average rise of less than one per cent in commodity wholesale Ss. Roosevelt also showed considerable interest in a report from Secretary Perkins comparing present recovery figures with those of the period of 1921 when the country was coming out of the post-war depression. This report showed that during the six summer months of 1921 there were 1,453 strikes and lockouts involving 895,000 employes, while for the simi- lar period in 1933 there were 900 strikes and lockouts involving 584,000 workers.
