' Similar orders were Issued last night to all state CWA administrators by National Administrator Harry I. Hopkins. The action was necessitated when payrolls were found to be far above original estimates and exhaus tion of funds within a week or 10 days was Indicated. Clerical, supervisory and profes sional workers will be allotted a maxi mum of 30 hours a week, but with proportionate wage adjustments. Status of sdmlnlstrative officers will remain unchanged. These instructions were sent last night to all country CWA heads. WASHINGTON, Jan. 19. (API Seeing the time growing short before exhaustion of civil works employment funds, the administration put under wav today a plan to expedite the president's recommendation to con gress for over a billion dollars, out of which the CWA would be financed until spring months.

Senator Dill (D., Wash.) told news papermen the program would not only have to be continued, but enlarged with greater Inheritance taxes to pay the bill. He added the project should be made more or less permanent. WASHINGTON. Jan. 19. (API A sudden stop-order on the parcelling t out of 500.000 new Jobs, coupled with a drastic slash in all working weeks, was the answer of the civil works ad ministration today to Its fast dwindl ing money supply. Official estimates were that about 4.000,000 CWA workers In every sec tion of the United Statea would draw reduced pay envelopes. All civil works Job-giving through out the country, where many appli cations for work were still being filled, was called to a halt. The only ex ception made was for replacing work ers who had quit and been paid off. rrotest Filed. At least one protest against the orders dispatched from CWA head quarters here was plsced on file almost as soon ss the move became known. The executive committee of the United States conference of mayors ssld In a statement: "We have now come back to the thoroughly vicious dole system." The sudden contraction In civil works activities was expected to add speed to a request President Roose velt will send to capltol hill shortly , for an additional 1,116.000.000 for the federal recovery units. Funds would be allotted from this to carry en civil works until May 1. Fands Nearly Gone.
