The thing that !struck mie was what he says about |the Social Securities Act. It is placed in quotes and I rely on it (to be correct.

The appropriation for the fiscal year 1933 was made way back in 1931. Congress appropriates money a long time ahead. The ap- propriation for the fiscal year 1934 —and by fiscal year I mean the year ending July 1, 193¢—that appropria- tion was made in 1932 before the New Deal came into power. It wasn't very large, something under half a million dollars, and if if had not béen for the PWA we would not have had more money that year, but the PWA was set up in 1933 and for the fiscal year 1934 we did get more money, but we are not responsible for the appropriation made in the fall or winter of 1932 or ‘before the adjournment of Con- gress March 4, 1933.
