Associated Press Staff Writer WASHINGTON. July 15. (API High officials said today that elabo raw plans prepared by the. national resources board on which President Roosevelt originally based the 84.000, 000.000 work relief program have been abandoned so far as the present Jobs drive la concerned. Lack of money and the need for peed In getting started toward the goal of 3,500.000 Jobs were given as the chief reasons. With Secretary Ickes as Its chair man, the board submitted to Mr. Roosevelt last year a co-ordinated public works program to improve land, water and mineral resources. It suggested a permanent works pro gram which mlcht Involve expendi ture of $125,000,000,000 In the next half century. Delay Explained Explaining some of the delays In the present works program ,one high official aald today that It was not until May. after the work relief act was passed, that any plans for spend ing the huge appropriation existed except for those prepared by the board. Earlier, when the senate demanded Information on how the fund was to be divided, the administration based lta classification entirely on the board's program, this official added. He said that, although the public works administration had collaborat ed In drawing up the program, it had n nin of Its own. Nplther. he aid. had Harry L. Hopkins' relief ad ministration because neither Hopkins nor Ickes knew until two weeks after the works relief act was signed which would be In charge. Difficulties Seen After Hopkins was given the prin cipal role, it wrs said, lie found that two difficulties would prevent carry ing out the national resources board program: 1. Much of the work It nroposed, In particular the rivers and harbors, erosion control, and highway con struction, would be In sparsely set tled areas where the relief load is light. It also would require several years to complete. This would leave little for projects in large cities where the destitute are concentrated, or for the 750.000 or more white col lar workers. a. The resources board program called for a large expenditure on ma terials how much waa never dis closed, but certainly more than the 1,600,000,000 to be spent on mate rials under the revised program. Halt Called As a result. It was said, a halt waa called after Mr. Roosevelt had allot ed about $1. 000,000.000. It was de elded that the works progress ad ministration would spend about 2. 000,000.000 on projects calling for comparatively small expenses for ma terials. Emphasizing the value of rivers and harbors Improvements, the resources board quoted an estimate by army en gineers that $8,000,000,000 could be spent profitably on such work. Mr. Roosevelt has allotted $97,000,000 meaning that activity In this line will be considerably less than at any time In recent years. Hopkins Is re sorted to have advised against any lurther extensive projects because of their high material costs. M:sa Josephine Clute entertained a.

E GOT ME OUT'' "What a vacation for a druggist jiwt another round of medicine, splints and bandages! I was heading for a cool beach, on all eight cylinders. Suddenly I hit soft sand and the whole world turned up side down. My car plunged into the ditch and I was pinned in it. "Luckily a Standard Service Man on his way to work was right behind me. And he wasn't afraid of broken glass either! He cut his hands to ribbons getting me out then raced to town for an ambulance and stuck with me clear to the hospital." Of course, this is miles out of the ordinary. But it's another example of "Standard Service Spirit." Standard Service Men are always on their toes to help you every way they can. See for yourself.
