PRICE FIVE CENTS Public Works Expenditures To | Differ In ‘New Deal’ Program: Many Daisiots To Be wit In Outlay Of Govern-| ment Funds By Adminis-| tration By HERBERT PLUMMER (By Associated Presn) WASHINGTON, 4.—Be-| hind three recent | ! | ! i Jan administrative | acts and utterances seemingly | isolated and unrelated in them-/ selves may be detected a general, | i the i but definite, trend by new deal” away from the extraordi-j nary use of emergency power. Granting that unforseen con-} tingencies might halt and even re-! verse this drift, there is new an apparent desire to return to old! sources some of the heretofore exercised by President | paign against depression. The first hint of thi: | state of af-| fairs came in Mr, Roosevelt’s re- cent disclosure that the $500,000,-! 000 public works bill to go be- fore the new congress is to be vastly different in important te spects from predeces: In the sors. past such funds have been pro- vided in huge lump sums by con-] gress for expenditure substantially as the —administratiog-—meaning| the President in last analysis— might see fit. Now,/Mr. Roosevelt has made plain he wants congress itself to appropriate for specific projects, That means -and the of projects will return in large meas- ure to Capitol Hill. Income Boosted The second s\ seen in a car the power selection aw in the wind is an-, alysis by A ing that the farme been boosted to the assert-! income had lative point 929—the debacle. ing this statement furthe ers found AAA r also, that the done about as much as it could do, standing alone, to the! farmers’ _ position. im-} it occupied in 1 fore the great adm ation had improve Further provement, it was held, must come through greater demand for farn ers products through increased in-! dustrial payrolls. The final nificance of the analysis was that it had a tendency to put AAA on record as seeking a qu with the y- executive power and action, for the future—always barring major contingencies. End Of NRA Again, a third arrow toward comparatively ized executive author in President Roo: for the final liquidation of NRA! fong only a ghost of its former self but neverthe still a com- pletely self-contained new deal! agency. Functions of NRA, it oF understood, are to be spread out! among _ old-establis! govern- ment departments. ‘With congress back in control of expenditure of public works ap- propriations, AAA maintaining 5 status quo and the last vestige of | the old NRA gone, a substantial | amount of the old emergency} flavor would be gone from Wash-| ington. e | SS “7 Seagram's WHISKIES AND GINS i sig-} Pointing ity was raised velt’s decision! | | another educational and , West, of which the Commodore is} ! eressing satisfactorily, The Stamp ; New Year’s Day means were also’ | discussed for gathering material | for the Oceanographic Division of this community. ‘NOYES FAMILY .{ OTHERS HAVE ARRIVED a decentral- | ® ig {invitation to talk at a meeting of ‘OCEANOGRAPHIC | RESEARCH UNIT HOLDS f MEETING ANNOUNCE MELODY HOUR TO} BE PRESENTED ON THURS-!
