Mayors Call For
Renewed Relief,
State Payments
WASHINGTON, Nov. 20.-yP-
New federal relief appropriations
and "adequate" state contribu
tlons were demanded today by the
nation's organized mayors.
Capping President Roosevelt's

relief policy, the United States
conference of mayors voted to ask
congress for enough cash "to meet
a planned and comprehensive pro
gram for relief work and direct
aid to meet the unemployment sit
uation" through the fiscal year
1956-37.
Such a program would extend
federal relief activities, including
the dole, at least to June 30, 1937.
The present relief program, as
projected by latest White House
statements, embraces a virtual end
to direct relief by December 1,
and expenditure of all but $900,
000.000 of the $4,000,000,000
works appropriation by next June
30.

High Bids Worry
School Directors
Alternate Proposals on
High, Grade Buildings
Being Drawn Up
' As a result of the-high bids re
ceived by the Salem school board
on the two Leslie junior high pro
jects last week which resulted in
only one contract being let, the
board has been conferring with
its architects in an effort to submit-
alternative propositions to
contractors who bid n the grade
school and high school work.
It is said that the Increasing
costs are endangering the whole
school building program. It is un
derstood that under the bond is
sue votea ior tne scnooi ouuaing
program, all four of the projects
outlined must be completed.
Program Impairment Faced
If the building costs continue
to rise to such an extent that all
the projects could not be con
structed, the whole program
would be seriously Impaired, it is
thought.
Under present plans two or
three alternative propositions will
be submitted to contractors upon
which to bid. If all of the acces
sories to the buildings can not be
included because of the cost, then
one of the alternative bids may be
accepted. A'

the grade school and Knighton
and Howell, who are drawing
