MCARL CURTALS HOMESTEAD FUND Rules Repayment Must Go to Treasury, Not Into F Revelving Pot. The Resettlement Administration eannot perpetuate itself through the yevolving fund provision of the law | under which the subsistence home-| stead was inaugurated, as the new appropriation for this activity does not continue that provision, Controller General McCarl sald in a decision given today to Resettlement Adminis- trator Tugwell. The ruling was viewed as constitut- ing a stumbling block to any long- range program for subsistence home- steads, but not as affecting immediate plans. The homestead program was begun under the national recovery act, which sppropriated $25,000,000 for the proj- ect and provided that the repayment of those making loans would go back | {nto a revolving fund to continue the | program. The resettlement admin- {strator asked if this revolving proviso would remain in effect under the| work-relief act, which carries $950,- 000,000 for homesteading purposes. Goes Into Treasury. Replying, McCarl said this was pre- eiuded by reason of the expiration of the recovery act as of June 16 and | the fact the revolving fund provision | was not repeated in the new legisla- | tion. The repayments, he added, must | go back to the general fund of the | Treasury. ! McCarl's decision followed close on | the heels of Information that Admin- { istrator Tugwell has placed before tne Allotment Board requests for approxi- mately $225,000,000 for a subsistence homestead program to be carried out | by next September 1. 4 | The major activities planned: Construction of from three to five large low-cost housing projects, to pro- vide homes for from 1000 to 2,000 | families, near large cities. | Purchase of from 5,000,000 to 6,- 000,000 ac.es of submarginal lands. Would Add to Rolls. Addition of from 50,000 to 175,000 families to the rural rehabilitation zolls. | In addition to the large lcw-ccstl suburban housing projects, it was | learned the administration may, if | funds are available, build from 8 to 10 | smaller communities, to house Imm 100 to 300 families. These projects will be in sddmon to the 30 suburban and rural com- | munities completed or under construc- | tion, which were taken over from the | old Subsistence Homesteads Division of the Interior Department and from | CAMELS ARE SO MILD THEY DON'T UPSET MY NERVES OR SPOIL MY TIMING.

The Resettlement Administration al- ready has exercised options on ap- proximately 3,500,000 acres of sub- marginal lands, and it was hoped to increase this total to from 8,000,000 to 10,000,000 acres within a year. Now listed as rural rehabilitation clients are approximately 350,000 farm families, taken over from F. E. R. A. It was expected this list will be in- creased to 400,000 or 425,000 families within a year. Loans and grants are made to fam- ilies taken from relief rolls, and to those which would go on relief rolls | if help were not provided. Projects have been outlined, it was learned, which would cost considerably more than $225,000,000, but it was not expected that the program would exceed that amount for one year. —_— Huge Skull Found.
