(Continued from page 1)
Harrington declared -at a press
conference in Chicago that he
had no Intention of asking con
gress 'Tor legislation at this
time" to alter the new relief
statute.
Harrington said the conference
of WPA directors decided to start
putting into effect immediately
the law's requirement that, effec
tive September 1, employes who
have been on the rolls 18 months
or more be laid off for SO days.
If the furloughs were delayed to
September 1, he said, projects
would coUapse bceause of the' ab
sence of so many men at the same
time.
- The commissioner predicted, in
response to a question, that there
would be a "loud howl" when the
WPA readjusts' geographical 'dif
ferentials in monthly work relief
wages, as the new act directs. He
had explained previously that
wages in the north and west would
be reduced September 1, while
those in the south would be in
creased. The law provides that
differences in WPA rates in vari
ous sections shall be no greater
than differences in the "cost' of
living, but that the present na
tional average 152.20 a month
shall not be changed.'

Over big Show
Convention to Hare big
: Parade With' 30 Bands,
Blany Floats
; Calls for a shoe horn which
might be useful to wedge more at
tractions into the big show of the
American Legion department of
Oregon convention, Friday night,
August 11, were sent out during
last night's meeting of the con
vention commission. The show
will include, discussion revealed,
the biggest and longest parade
ever formed In Salem, including a
dozen military units. 30 or 40
bands and drum corps, patriotic
organizations, floats and novel
ties; the 'annual drum corps com
petition, drills by troops and the
CO-piece band from vancouvei
Barracks,' stunts and novelty at
tractions. - The parade will pass through
Sweetland' field as the " opening
event of the show; and the prob
lem was not to find attractions
but to telescope them so that it
would all be over around 11
o'clock at night. -
. Discussion of other convention
plans was devoted to minute de
tails Indicating that the arrange
ments are virtually complete al
most a month before the opening
date. This Is especially true of the
4 0 et . 8 program, ' scheduled for
Wednesday, August $. -i '
Great pains are being taken, by.
the commission to forestall any
chiseling" on the part of persons
who may falsely, represent them
selves as agents of the American
Legion.' Mayor W. W: Chadwick
who Is a member of the commis
sion said the city council might
pass an. ordinance Which would
help to curb any such practice in
connection - with this - convention
and others in the future. '
