Federal Relief Plans Uutlined By Minister

OTTAWA. Jan. 28 —(CP) —-A new measure of Fiederal assistance for civic works with the Dominion and Province paying the cost of direct labor on 1r 50-50 basis, was announced in the House of Com- mons today by Labor Minister Rogers,

In addition. the Minister gave a brief summary of the general pol- icy to be followed by the Gov-em- ment in making relief and employ- ment agreements with the Prov- ince during the current year.

Grants-in-aid for direct relief will be continued, youth training will go on for at least three years with an annual grant from Dominion and Provinces of $3.000.- 000. forest conservation and farm employment schemes will be en- largecl and a varied program of works will be entered upon. These will include highway construction, work in National Parks and on historic sites, level crossing elimina- tion. water conservation and air- port and harbor development.

Speaking in the debate on the address in reply to the Speech from the Throne, Mr. Rogers said the Government is going to pur- sue its policy of seeking to stimu- late private employment and he appealed to industry to coo crate.

"If private employment not able to take up the slack with the aid of Governments there may be thrown on fiemccatic Government such a pressure of public opinion to provide employment that Gcv- ernlnenm may undertake works for which they are not fitted," he

In his brie; summary of pro- posed iicies, Mr. Rcgers said granis- n-aid for direct relief will

e p d on a dollar-for-dollar basis with the Provinces up to a maximum Federal contribution of 40 ner cent in each Province.

"Under t-he maximum this would mean in general terms a 40- 40-220 division of the cost oi ma- terial aid as among the Dominion. tho Provincial and Municipal Gov- emments." Mr. Rogers said. “Un- der the proposed agreements the Dominion will provide _ior a shar- ing of the cost of aid to transients on a 50-50 basis with the Plo- virices." '

"The Government will offer the

Provinces its cooperation to enable municipalities to enlarge their normal program of civic improve- mer-‘s as an alternative to direct relief. "To this end the Dominion. un- der agreement with the Provinces. will contribute 50 per cent of the direct labor costs of such ro- jects approved by the Prov ee and Dominion, it being understood the Provincial Government in each case will also contribute 50 per cent of the labor cost. and the municipality will bear the cost of materials end superviflon.

"In up roving applications from

unlci lties due consideration

ll be given: (A) the extent of unemployment in the municipal- ity and (B) the value of the pro- posed improvement tn the com- munity and the relative cost of materials in relation to total cost of the iect.

"Bkrlp oy-ment will be supervised. at least in the larger communities. by a committee which shall regfue- sent each of the three eorltri t-

in¢ Governments.
