District organization was begun the third week In July. At that I time, eight District Directors and eftrht Assistant Directors were aD- Pointed with instructions to begin plans fo rorganizing by August 1st. These District Directors with their Assistants were confronted with tl-3 task of organizing and at the same time, acquainting a bun- i to 5 people In each District office, or a total or tnirty-two to uuny five throughout the State, and a State Headquarters Staff of about , hundred and twenty projects per week has been maintained.

I Transportation Airports, etc., $4,500,000.00. These Statewide blanket projects necessarily include many projects already approved, but It insures l leeway for additional desirable pro jects which are found to be neces sary to put the jobless to work. In no case, will these Statewide projects cancel projects already approved. The Director of Women's Work has initiated a Statewide project involving $12,500,000.00 which is expected to employ 6,000 men on white collar jobs, and 18,000 wom en on jobs of all types. Types, of projects initiated are: Sewing Rooms, the making of useful gar ments; Homemaking; Canning; Bedside Nursing; and Diatetics, and will continue for a period of twelve months. If no Projects oth-r than these are Initiated, they alone will insure employment for 24,000 men and women for one year. Dispatches from Washington In dicate that projects involving $10, 000,000.00 from North Carolina have been partially approved, how ever funds have actually been re ceived for only two projects. These are in Belmont and Concord, and it is expected that several hundred men will begin actual work there next week. Delay has been inevi table due to the rush of projects and the congestion in Washington. After forwarding to Washington, eighteen to twenty days is required for projects to pass all obstacles and receive allocation of funds. Desirable projects of useful per manent benefit, of types desired by the public totaling $53,000,000 -00 should and will assure security wages for the jobless in North Ca rolina for the coming year. Works Progress Administration reviewing its work up to now faces its future task with assurance and confidence. TJNIVERS A LIST CHURCH NOTICE ,. Preaching ' at Outlaw's ; Bridge Sunday at, 7:30 P. M.
