ITALY MAKE Here and There By ALEX. H. WASHBURN- ERE is a new imtl striking approach to the problem of the dole.

The Mississippi House of Representatives approved 83 to 40 an appropriation of $050.000 for continuation of the Job Program Lags; Extension to First of Year I provided that the names of all persons who received aid should be published in their home-town newspaper. Editor Edgar G. Harris of the West Point (Miss.) Times Lender draws the following conclusions: It is believed the publication of the names of those who receive a dole from the state will deter those who arc not absolutely destitute from asking aid, and that Ihe cost of such publication will be saved ninny times over in this way. It will, in our judgment, do more than this. II will prove an effective check on those who administer the fund and serve to prevent unfounded criticism such as we have bud in recent years.

No honest official afraid of publicity. And every home-town newspaper will be glad to print "the public list" for a fraction of what it gets on routine legal notices. Appearance of "the public list" is bsolutely certain if relief and pension work- 3 Million More Is Given Arkansas on Highway Work New WPA Allotment Released for Roads, Grade- Crossing Elimination GRANT Wrinkles?

States for Relief of Phys- cally Handicapped PI-3 Million More 3 presidential allotment of $11,512,897 of work relief funds for highway and grade-crossing- elimination construction work in six! suites was announced Monday by the Works Progress Administration (WP- A).

But capitol this week-end. with less than two weeks remaining, Several years ago Arkansas ended inshore is 2,189,267 jobs Some officials forecast Sunday that a renewed drive to put HIP work relief program over, this time by December 1, would start when the president reaches the capital Thursday. This would mean continuation of direct relief probably to the first of 1936. Reduced Deficit Forecast ltiei "is the task of framing a new program for submission to congress in January, Then the budget must contain figures on what shall come after the $4,880,000,000 work program.

Mr. Roosevelt has forecast smaller emergency expenditures and a reduced deficit. Shaping 1937 relief plans to meet these requirements is understood to have been a chief topic of discussion on the vacation cruise between the president, Harry L. Hopkins and Secretary Ickes. Officials here they expected little change in the relief picture during the coining that about 4,000.000 "unemployablcs" hereafter must look to states, communities and the social security program, instead of to the federal government for direct relief.

About half the nation's unemployed they estimated, are not on relief and arc not included in the present pro- groin. They expect that increased private employment probably would go first to those not on relief. Peak Itelief Ixiad In Prospect With winter expected to see the relief chart start climbing again, a peak load estimated by some ut 16,000,000 persons appeared in prospect. Direct relief by the first of the year will have cost the federal government more than 53,000,000,000. This was in addition to $3,700.000,000 of public works outlay.

$800,000,000 for the Civil Works. Administration and other recovery expenditures. Partly because of delays in is year's work program, about $1,300,000,000 of the appropriation is counted on to provide support for the 3,500,000 and their families and leave 5900,000,000 in the treasury at the close of the financial year next June 30. Some tentative plans for next year have called for supplementing the $900,000,000 000,000.000 to finance relief up to June 30, 1937. tLAPPERTFANNY HLG.

U. B. PAT. OFF. public spending new highways and new school found out that while it was rolling up a huge funded debt for tangible improvements it was also going in the hole on straight operating expense of the state government.

Expenses were drnstically cut, well within the assured lax revenue, and then each department was required to live on 80 per cent of the already-reduced budgel 20 per cent balance going into a sinking fund to pay off the stale's "hot checks." Today Comptroler Griffin Smith tells us a total of $866.907 of the general fund's deficit has ben paid off, and he estimates the state will be in the clear next March. Tliis is good it means thai when the state has paid up its old debt taxes can be reduced to level just sufficient to maintain the present style of state government. No taxpayer should permit the lesson of this drastic debt-payment policy to be lost. A man will work harder to get out of debt, sometimes, than he will after the debt is paid. But the taxpayers expect the same general policy to be pursued toward themselves as was pursued when creditors were banging angrily at the treasury's door.

Let us remember this 'in the immediate future. $866,907 Paid Off on State's Deficit H. W.

This sanction, by far the most drastic ever adopted by the League, is expected by its authors to cut off 70 cent of tho Fascist nation's exports rigidly enforced. It will affect di- cctly most and indirectly all the workers of Italy. In approving this step, the League's encral Committee of 52 nations fixed October 31 as the date the sanctions vill become effective. rPemier Benito Vlussolini has until then to think hings over. The altitude, or measures of co-op- Tation the League may expect in the iiove, will be sought from the United tales and other non-League members.
