mode here totday by Marshall N.
Dana, regional advisor for the public

"The PWA and OWA have dented
deeply the unemployment emergency
and have brought substantial relief
to many thousands In the four states,"
he said.
The Increased employment, Dana
said, "Is chiefly credited to the OWA
as a division of the general public

to come the employment effects of
PWA projects will be seen in the em
ployment of large additional numbers.
Due to the necessity for careful en
gineering, legal and financial analysis
of allocation to public bodies, thru
PWA, the time element In getting
work underway has necessarily been
Increased."
