SECTION TWO CLASSIFIED SECTION TWO INLAND EMPIRE and The Dally Orange Belt News SATURDAY MORNING, JULY 13, 1935 ptui hamber Aids Attack New Relief Program in County Near Three Dead in Auto Wrecks; Trucks, Car Crash Near Needles IETER1 TO NOMINATE NEW OFFICERS CDUNTYTOEET FARM SCHODL FOR HOMELESS RED CROSS TO HONOR LEADER ON CITY VISIT County on State ssessment Figures Four Are Hurt, One Gravely; Ontario Mishap Fatal The first appropriations under the plan designed to change San Bernardino county's SERA work relief program over to the new Federal works progress administration, were received yesterday by Harold Thorcson, relief admin istrator. The allocations, totaling about $11,000 and providing employment for 49 men and women on the SERA rolls, were received from the joint headquarters of the SERA and the WPA at San Francisco. These new authorizations limit expenditures to the period ending Aug. 15, in accordance with orders received this week by Director Thoreson, who has been told to complete the changeover from SERA work relief to Federal works progress projects by that date. After Monday night only supple mental appropriations for the completion of existing SERA projects, or for their continuation until they can be transferred to the WPA pro gram, will be granted to San Ber nardino county by the joint state headquarters of the emergency unemployment relief set-up, Mr.

Thoreson has been informed. This time limitation for comple tion of jobs financed by the SERA is supplemented by a definite termination of approval of any work relief projects unless they are submitted through the new WPA setup, Director Thoreson has been told. The county advisory committee that passes upon the merits of proposed work relief projects has suspended consideration of projects until the WPA set-up is inaugurated in this county. Following is the list of the first SERA work relief projects under the new time limitation: Barstow union high school ath letic field improvements, county-wide self-help cooperatives, $250; Yucaipa self-help cooperative project, survey of rural case loan of the county's SERA unit, $3,650. KARNES QUI1S Lester Karnes, 40 years old, wounded in a shooting affray in Highland June 28 in which his brother, Albie Karnes, 33, was fatally shot, was removed from the county hospital to his home yesterday.

His asserted assailant, Raymond Dalrymple, 49, Highland rancher, is being held in the county jail on a charge of murder. The two brothers were shot as the aftermath of a quarrel resulting from what started to be a friendly wrestling match. U. 5. to Defray Foremen's Pay Sponsors of San Bernardino county work relief projects under the new Federal works progress program will be relieved of the burden of employing foremen, supervisors and superintendents, according to word received yesterday by Harold P.

Thoreson, county relief administrator. Under the SERA set-up, and prior to that time under the CWA plan of work relief, local sponsors of projects were required to defray the costs of hiring supervisory employes. Transfer of this load to the Federal payroll will be an important change for the county and its cities, districts and organizations that have cooperated to sponsor work relief projects. Labor foremen will be classed as "skilled workers" and draw a wage of $70 per month. Foremen of special crafts, and supervisors and superintendents will be classified as "professional and technical" employes, and be paid at the rate of $77 per month.

In most Instances where men capable of handling the supervisory responsibility of a project cannot be hired at the specified maximum wage, the sponsor may match funds with the WPA to bring the salary up to the necessary point. In a few isolated instances the WPA may pay a special higher wage for supervisory work, according to Mr. Thoreson, Collecting Hobby Leads Boy to Court (Rv Associated Press) SAN FRANCISCO, July 12. Lu Chung's penchant for collecting led to a court of law today. It all began, the 15-year-old Chinese youth explained to Superior Judge Michael J.

Roche, with just plain, ordinary stamps. Then foreign stamps from letters reposing In mail boxes proved enticing. But these soon yielded in Interest to the letters themselves. And then came checks inside the letters. And the money they represented.

Transient Youths to Be Cared For in Agricultural Plant On Glen Helen Ranch An agricultural school for home less boys is to be established on the old Glen Helen ranch near Devore, Frank Y.

The schools will be conducted along lines similar to the citizen training corps camp for transient youths, which will open at Clyde, Contra Costa county, July 20. Each school will have an enrollment of about 80 homeless boys who show special aptitude for agricultural work.

MANY WANDERERS McLaughlin said California has at least 2,400 boys between 16 and 21 years of age who are wandering about the state. He said this was the largest number reported by any state and greater than the combined total of 20 states where the homeless boy problem is a comparatively minor one.

Dymond made several addresses before service clubs and other organizations in San Bernardino recently, but never publicly condemned the exploration expedition here.

He was discharged June 9 in Boston. Dymond.

whose parents live In San Bernardino, said he signed up on the Jacob Ruppert in New Zealand, "looking for adventure and thrills."

Fire detection and suppression In the San Bernardino national forest will be materially aided under a new photographic survey plan inaugurated this fire season, Supervisor DeWitt Nelson announced yesterday.

The system will be supplemented by the regular charts and maps used under the old detection method. Two sets of the photographs are used, one at the lookout stations and one in headquarters in the Federal building in San Bernardino. By use of the photographs, the actual nature of the country in which the fire fighters must work is depicted and fire plans may be quickly determined, said Charles M.
