WORK RELIEF WILL TAKE PLACE OF DOLE WASHINGTON, Nov. 10 —There were definite signs today that the Roosevelt administration plans fun damental alterations in its relief program. The president may disclose them in his next “fireside chat’’ with the nation early in December. Several ideas are under discussion among his prominent assistants. So far as is known, none has yet re ceived the approval of the man at the top. One program, already brought to public notice, calls for the whole sale shifting of unemployed from the direct dole to work relief. At pres ent. half of the 17,000,000 people be ing assisted are getting direct relief. Another suggestion, which has just been disclosed, is that the government might get millions off the relief rolls by offering to guarantee private in dustry against loss if it speeds up production. The authors ot tnis plan, wmcn nas not been worked out in detail, say that the purchasing power of those who got the new jobs would absorb the increased production. The the ory is that if the government stands the risk, business will be willing to go ahead and with purchasing power reviving, the possibilities' of loss will be small. Various methods of putting this plan into effect are under study. Under one of them the government would determine the normal demand for staple commodities and offer to buy any production within that amount which could not be absorbed by the market. If the thing were worked properly, the proponents say, the government would not have to buy much. Another proposal gaining favor in government councils is to lend large numbers of families enough money “at one shot” to take them off relief rolls and make them self-supporting. Hints dropped casually by Harry L. Hopkins, the relief administrator, focused attention on this idea today. “Our rehabilitation work, now rel atively minor, will some day reach the great number of needy unemploy ed in the cities,” he said. “This is one of the important things that has to be done in America.” P. T. A. WILL MEET MONDAY AFTERNOON Arrangements have been made whereby the P. T. A. meetings will be held in the court house instead of the grammar school auditorium, which has been condemned by build ing inspectors. The November meeting of the P. T. A. will be held in the court room Monday afternoon at 3:30 vl’clock, According to announcement of the president, Mrs. J. B. Pickel simer.
