LONDON, July 1 (#.—The divorce of Countess Russell from Bertrand Russell, philosopher and advocate of companionate marriage, was made absolute today by Sir Boyd Merriman. The countess was granted a decree nisi November 22, 1934, in her uncon- tested suit, the decree to become ab- solute after six months at the discre- tion of the court. The countess charged that Earl Russell was guilty of immoral conduct after they had signed an agreement absolving each other of all past in- THE EVENING BIG WORK-RELIEF PROGRAM ON TEST Hopkins Says Month Will Make or Break 4-Bil- lion Undertaking. By the Associated Press. ‘Today marked the beginning of a month of Federal relief policy mak- discretions. ing which, according to Harry L. Hop- \ STAR, WASHINGTON, kins, will “make or break” the $4,880,- 000,000 work-relief program. At the same time a demand that the “dole” be stopped and a hint that Congress at its next session may be asked to appropriate $3,000,000,000 more for relief came from Chairman Buchanan of the House Appropria- tions Committee, who was one of the leaders responsible for forcing through the current $4,880,000,000 work-relief appropriation. During the next 30 days more than 100,000 persons are scheduled to get jobs, while some hundreds of thou- sands of others already on emergency relief work will be transferred from Federal Emergency Rellef Adminis- tration to Works Progress Administra- tion pay rolls. Even more important than opening l of the extra jobs, however, is the deci- ! _D._C, MONDAY, sion on the type of projects to be car- ried out, according to relief officials. July 1 finds $4,880,000,000 pret- ty well parcels . One billion or more for the Relief Administration, $720,000,000 for the Civilian Conservation Corps, $500,- 000,000 for highway, street and grade crossing elimination and at least $300,000,000 to help set up again some of the 1,000,000 farm families on relief. Frankly acknowledging the similar- ity between the old Civil Works Ad- ministration and an estimated $2,000,- 000,000 of Works Piogress Adminis- tration activities, officials still Insisted that the works projects would be worth while. ment with a remark that States and communities must contribute—as they have contributed under the C. W. A, JULY_1, But they qualified the state= _1935. and the old work-relief program—if “good” projects are to be available. ‘With the exception of roughly, $175,~ 000,000 in reclamation projects, and perhaps $250,000,000 of low-cost hous- ing developments, no funds apparently will be available for projects where the cost per man given work exceeds the $1,100 or $1,200 average. This leaves it to local contributions to prevent a recurrence of the “leaf-rak- ing” charges which helped prompt discontinuance of the C. W. A. Buchanan, In veicing his demand for an end of the dole system, de- clared the only reasen he worked and voted for the $4.880,000,000 wrk-re- lief appropriation was that he under- stood the :noney was to be ased to get people off the dole and put them to work. “It we don't swp the dole,” he said, “this Nation will be bankrupt. And if we don't make people work for the money, I don’t know whether I'll be willing to vote for a $3,000,000,- 000 appropriation Text session or npot.” FIRE SWEEPS PLANT Canadian Milling Company Suf- fers $500,000 Loss at El Reno.
