at the M. A. Webb residence late

Mr. Webb's .trousers were lying
'across the bed. Legs of the trous-
ers were buirned off and tihe up-
per part was badly scorched.
They had been cast aside with
some of the other debris from
the fire. Mr. Web'b remembered
that his watch and two or._-dollar

investigated anid found them safe.
Practically all the furniture in
the bed room was damaged. Some
of the other rooms were smoked.

. With several thousand men en-
gaged in swinging picks and
shovels on dozens of projects in
Texas, state Works Progress Ad-
ministration officials have
plunged welTL, into the second
ipfhase cf the' program intended
to eradicate relief rolls in Tex-
as.
Workers :on the Lake Tram-
mell flood damage repaiir project
near Sweetwater, Friday, became
first former relief clients to re-
ceive pay checks from Works
Progress Administration. On that
day also, 600 laborers began to
earn their pay on four projects
in the Houston WPA district.
First on the list of WPA; pro-
jects to secure federal approval,
flood damage repair jobs are al-
ready under way in several sec-
tions of Texas. All of the $300,-
000 federal allocation for that
type of work has been allotted to
Texas ■ districts, State Project
Director E. A. Bauhg reported.
In addition to this lump grant,
Texas has received federal al-
lotment of $1,534,208 in local pro-
jects, many of which 'h'ave already
been started or will start soon
throughout the state.
. As 'first authorizations to be-
gin Work were mailed out to the
districts whose projects were
given early federal approval, state
officials had completed final de-
tails on the handling of labor
problems.
State officials adopted the 140-
hour month as standard working
time 'on projects, H. P. Draught,
state administrator, announced
early last week.
Explaining that some deviations
from this policy would be neces-
sary due to suclh variable fac-
tors as location of the projects
or the availability <of equipment,
Drought declared that the 140-
hour month will be maintained as
fciosely as possible. Due to the
nature of canning plant and sew-
ing room activities, women will
generally work 138 hours per
month, Mrs. M. K. Tayl'or state
wo'men's work consultant,
ciared. In order to realize the
full benefits of these projects,
it will be necessary in some in-
stances to work two shifts per
day, M.rs. Taylor said. Women
employees on other tytpes of pr
jects are expected ito work the
regular 140Jh'our month.

R, W. -WILLIS OUTLINES; PLAN
TO EMPLOY 163 MEN HERE
FOR ONE YEAR
It would appear from a letter
received here Wednesday by
Jiudge W. L. Helton from R. W.
Willis, supervisor'of projects and
planning for Works Progress Ad-
ministration in District 16, that
the 'Gem City road, or Highway
170, is to be the project that may
receive .alpproval in Hemphill
County.
Mr. Willis states that he ex-
pects • authorization ,on about; 19
federal-state highway projects in
this district and presumes that
Hemphill County will want this
work jn this county to go for-
ward. The authorization ir. Hemp-
hill will 'be Highway 170. It will
use a- total of 163 men daily for
aipproximately lone year.
Hardsurfacing the Gem City
road with caliche from tihe end of
the paved connection, just com-
pleted, at the Allison corner, to
the 'Oklahoma-Texas line is the
jproject mentioned by Mr. Willis.
It would require the 'county, ob-
taining some additional right-of-
way, Judge Helton says.
The judge expressed an opinion
that he Ibelieves the Gem • roa;d
project is iprobably the best one,
taking everything into considera-
tion. The court and planning
board will likely take: action on
the matter either this week or
early next week.

Quite a compliment was paid

Marion told the local Rotarians
he has had occasion recently to

trict in Missouri. None of till em,
including Rotary, Lioris, Kiwanis
/and others, in towns the size of
