Jt wa* nearly 5 o’clock when debate
started.
As reported, the measure lies much|
closer to the admniiskration’s desires
than the bill psts.>ed by the house, fori
the committee threw out such house
provision? a? a $125,000,000 contri-'
b’jtion from the WTAA to the PWA,
and a house stipulation that WPA be
adm-nis'.ered by a three-man board,
instead of the present one-man ad
min ist'■at or.
The senate bill requires, however,
that 25 per cent of the coat of WPAj
projects be borne by the state* or mu
nicipalities. that the federal theater
continue o^y when locally sponsored,!
and retains a house limitation of $40,-
(8)0 on the federal cogtributkm to
WTA building projeets.
