Asks Congress For Greafer Leeway On Relief Projects Requests Include New Theater Program, Removal Of Building Cost Limit By the Associated Press. The W. P. A. has asked Congress, well-informed legislators said today, to give it greater leeway in the size and type of projects which it can undertake with relief funds. Members of the House Appropria- tions Subcommittee considering President Roosevelt's relief estimates sald that the requested revisions include: 1. Restoration of the Federal the- ater projects where local sponsor- ship can be obtained. 3. Removal of the $52,000 limit on the cost of construction projects. 3. Elimination of the requirement that local sponsors contribute 25 per cent of the cost of all non-Federal projects. 4. Reduction to 15 days of the en- forced lay-off period for all persons continuously on the W. P. A. rolls for 18 months. $100,000 Limit Suggested. Committee members said W. P. A. Commissioner Harrington, recom- mending the changes, suggested that if the committee felt a top limit should be fixed for construction projects, it be placed at $100,000. He asked discretionary power to determine where local sponsors’ con- tributions should be insisted upon. Members said it had been found that this requirement denied some Poor communities W. P. A. projects of any kind. Legislators pictured Col. Har- rington as favoring continuation of the mandatory layoffs for persons on the relief rolls for 18 months, but suggested that the layoff be reduced to 15 days from the present 30-day period. He was quoted as saying the furlough provision had caused little hardship. Theater Projects Face Opposition. There were indications that the proposed restoration of the theater projects, even on a local sponsorship basis, would encounter opposition. The committee was very critical of that project when it was eliminated last year. Members disclosed that the W. P. A. writers’ project was criticized ear- lier this week by Col. Brehon Som- ervell, New York City W. P. A. ad- ministrator, who told the committee he did not regard it as a justifiable one for public support. F. H. A. Home Financing Figures Show Gain The volume of home financing accepted by the Federal Housing Administration’s District of Colum- bia insuring office during March exceeded the figures for the cor- responding month of last year by a good margin, H. Loy Anderson, Dis- trict F. H. A. director, announced today. Mortgages accepted for insurance by the District office last month amounted to $1,745,000, Mr. Ander- | son said, as compared with $1,663,- 600 in March, 1939. This increase, he pointed out, is sharper than was the case last year. In addition, 92 loans, totaling $230,000, were approved for insurance | during the month on homes to be constructed under title 1, class 3 re- quirements. The maximum amount |insured on loans of this type is $2,500, with a down payment of only 5 per cent and the maximum | amortization period is 15 years. | “While we are not predicting a construction boom this year we confidently expect unusually brisk activity, especially in the small homes fleld,” Mr. Anderson said. “The home-building trend should increase as families of moderate in- come see the attractive small homes now being offered at prices and on terms well within their means. Builders are to be congratulated on the progress they have been making in producing ‘a good little house’ for the buyers of modest income, especially since the liberalized F. H. A. program has been in effect.” The architectural design now be- ing employed in the construction of small homes in the District has vastly improved over that of a few years ago, Mr. Anderson said.

OMAHA, Nebr, May 2—Nebras- ka's Democrats heard Paul V. Mc- Nutt laud the New Deal today as the producer of “basically sound” busi- ness conditions, while Col. Theodore Roosevelt told the State’s Repub- licans he feared the administration’s “benevolent meddling” would lead to war.
