(API President Roosevelt today allotted 83, 460,000 of work relief funds to the public health service for a survey of chronic diseases. The proposed expenditures fox the survey by states includes: Oregon 863.000: Washington 875.000; California 8259.000. Surgeon General Hugh S. Cum mtng estimated that the three-fold study would give a year's employment to 3.500 white collar people now on rallef rolls. His estimates said it would include: 1. A house to house canvass In se lected urban and rural communities to determine the prevalence of long standing illnesses among the rich. the poor, and the middle class families. 3. Physical examinations In a small number of Instances to check the ac curacy of canvass reports. 8. A survey of medical facilities, particularly for chronic diseases. - At the same time, Harry L. Hopkins, works progress administrator, an nounced that adult education classes designed to provide work for needy teachers as well as an opportunity for self-Improvement to grownups would be continued under the work relief program. Twelve hundred teachers are to at- tend summer schools In preparation , for classes to be resumed In the fall.j and Hopkins estimated that 3.000.000 adults not necessarily for relief rolls would take advantage of the aca demic and vocational training. He added that at a cost of $21. 024.230 during the past two school years, work had been provided 44.000 needy teachers who Instructed 3, 000.000 adulta and 60.000 klndergar- j ten-age children of destitute families. Although relief funds were advanced i to a few states for payment of rural , teaehers, Hopkins said that In gen eral he avoided use of federal funds for the regular public school system "lest local Initiative in supporting schools be broken down, or employed people thrown out of Jobs In order to give relief teachers their places."
