WPA's Existence Ended; OPA Lives Under Criticism WASHINGTON, July 3 (AP) A once-embattled government agency, set up to spend billions to make jobs, died quietly at mid night June 30, while a year's lease on life was given another agency fighting to keep the pub lic from spending too much for necessities. The WPA the Work Projects administration expired almost unnoticed, although in its nine years of life it had spent $10, 136,743,293 in federal funds to provide employment for a total of 8,500,000 persons. The OPA had its life extended by a bill signed by President Roosevelt, although he question ed the wisdom of numerous changes required in OPA's activ ities from now until July 1, 1945. The president said he feared the changes would weaken and obstruct the cffeclive enforce ment of price control and wage stabilization regulations. He said that if it should develop that en forcement agents run Into troub les "in bringing chiselers and black or.eraors to book," he would ask congress to remove the difficulties. WPA at its height found Itself the target of many charges among them political favoritism, extravagance and waste of mate rials which became the subject of hours of debate in congress. And, like OPA, it was the butt of many jokes, jibes and jingles. Ex-Mayors, Police' Heads Face Bribery Charges OGDEN, Utah, July 5. (API former "Boy Mayor" Kent S.
