CENTRALIZE ON “OFFICE WORK IN CWA ACTIVITIES LOCATED 1N LIGHTHOUSE DEPARTMENT BUILDING Within the next week all of the LARGER FORCE ON | BOULEVARD WORK ‘SAME ACTION WILL BE TAK- | EN SHORTLY IN BUILD. ING OF AQUARIUM | Arthur Sheppard, director of work for the CWA in Monroe county, said today that the force working on the boulevard project had been increased yesterday, The men are working in two shffts, it being the intention of those in charge to hasten this project as much as possible before February 15, on which date work will stop if the proposed regula- tions remain effective. It is not believed, however, that work on all CWA and FERA pro- jects will cease at that time as there are a great number of coun- ties throughout the country that have merely started on some of the | work. When the much needed material with which to increase the num- ber of workmen on the Key West Aquarium structure arrives, it is held that if and when the volume of work in the emergency educa- tional programs becomes so great that the regular supervisory staffs can no longer take care of the supervision required, the necessary records and reports, etc., it will be permissible to assign teachers or workers on relief funds to as- ‘sist the regular supervisory force. jIn such a case, however, they |should be paid as teachers on | special assignment or as clerical workers and not as assistant supervisors.” Doctor Zook points out that |“no travel funds are available in connection with the emergency educational programs, except .in the budgets approved for voca- tional rehabilitation where not to exceed five per cent may be spent for the travel of case workers and trainers.” He suggests therefore, that “such teachers or clerical workers assigned to assist county, superintendents be used to take care of the office details thus per- mitting the regular supervisory staff to spend more of their time in field work.” Commissioner Zook cautions however, that the “Federal Emer- gency Relief Administration has in no cage been granted permission for the employment of super- visors, directors, teacher trainers, teacher helpers, etc, as such, | understood that two shifts will be | from the relief funds granted the |put to work to finish this as soon | States for the development of the oi of New Jersey| 2d had refused to accede to the} as possible. emergency educational programs.” | request thrown out, The admiral suffer- Company ed a fractured skull and died with- ‘In a few minutes without regain- INSPECTION MADE SS) OF COUNTY JAIL Raeibabiinky wes barn in sate E.
