Shep person, state relief admistrator, an nounced receipt of $500,000 from the federal relief administration, Miss Shepperson said this sum provid ed ample funds to carry on relief work in the state until May 1. Governor Talmadge has already suggested that Secretary of Agri culture Wallace and Relief Admin« istrator Hopkins resign. He said “Hopkins is a queer bird. He has been a charity broker so long until it’s done him pretty bad.” i Observers read-all these devel opments today and then recalled that 'in 1932 Georgia and Louisiana each turned in majorities of over 200,000 votes for Mr. Roosevelt, They also recalled that in & preferential presidential primary. some months before the nomina tion Roosevelt carried every ; county in Georgia.

BENSON'S, INC. ‘ HOPKINS ANNOUNCES GAY SHEPPERSON TO SPEND RELIEF FUNDS (Continued From Page One) Governor Talmadge attacked Pres ident Roosevelt as an “extreme radical,” Hopkins and Secretary Ickes moved together against them. Ickes, asserting Long has “hali tosis of the intellect” and that he does not know how to do business with Talmadge, held up four Pub lic Works projects in Louisiana cancelled as many in Georgia. The Georgia allotments can celled, purportedly because of the governor's failure to sign the bill validating highway certificates posted as security, were three in Glynn county, $105,000 for an air port on St. Simons Island; $37,000 for a “boat garage” on the is land, and $48,000 for county: schools; and $20,000 to build a jail in Harris countp. ‘ Hopkins disclosed he! had placed a man of his own choosing in }cha.rge of Louisiana relief, and ‘accused the Georgia governor of [, having failed to make a real efliort} to keep public s¢hools open in his state. : i | Calls lckes Jackass ‘ ~ Long, who like Talmadge is a vehement critic of New Deal measures, retorted last night with a statement in Baton Rouge liken ing President Roosevelt to a king and Ickes to a jackass. ( | “The king and his Ickes are both dead and won't lie down,” he said. "It will take a funeral and that's all over but the singing.” He indicated he would return to Washington to discuss the PWA! administrator more ‘fully on the floor of the senate. : Talmadge, who contended in the early days of the New Deal that Hopkins was luring workers away from normal employment by CWA wage rates, aimed his stronges* criticism at the administration yesterday. He said there would be a third party in the 1936 cam paign and that the New Deal gov-' ernment would end within a year and a half. 1 [ “Any man who condones the ' NRA, the AAA and other things Inow going on in this country is a radical in the extreme,” the gov ernor asserted. ‘ ‘Talmadge Veto Ickes said he cancelled four lPublic Works projects in Georgia because Talmadge had vetoed a bill "to validate the sale of state highway certificates to the federal government. Hopkins did not limit his at tention to the controversies in the two southern states. He -issued a warning at his press conference that federal re lief funds would be withheld from Pennsylvania unless that state contributed $5,000,000 a month reg ularly. In IHlinois, he said, the /state must put up $3,000,000 a fnonth and communities $2,000,000. _%lg_e_ amount “expected” from ‘North Carolina in the next fiscal 'year was placed at $3,000,000. In ‘all, nine states have not yet made Eava}lable the sums asked by Hop kins. & ; The relief administrator gave a blunt ultimatum to Pennsylvania. “Pennsylvania gives me a pain in the neck,” he said. “It's one of the richest states in the union and there's no reason on God's earth why they can't pay their share. “I'm not going to give them any money until they do. They're not putting up a thin dime—Philadel phia, Pittsburgh and the whole kit and boodle. The city of broth erly love hasnst put up a cent.” Status Unchanged Hopkins said the status of Geor gia's application for $2,500,000 to help rural schools was “unchang ed.” However, he added requests from all states for school money will be settled in a day or two “‘one way or the other.” Dr. M. D. ‘Collins, state super intendent of schools for Georgia, reiterated confidence a school re lief grant for his state will be forthcoming. “We're going to get it,” he said. “We've got to get the money/’ Collins said. *“Without it, rural schools of the state will shut down.” Comment on Governor Tal madge’s attack on President Roosevelt was not immediately available from members of the house from Georgia. Some said they wanted to see the Talmadge statement first. Senator George of Georgia was visiting his father ir that state. Senator Russell issued a state ment “deploring” the personal at tack on the President. Russell in the past has remained silent as Talmadge criticized the New Deal l pclicies but yesterday he said he ‘hoprd th: governor had been mis quoted. ' RusseM Speaks Out The Russell statement follows: “I deplore the governor's state ment and regard as particularly unfortunate his personal criticism ~of President Roosevelt. I do not believe that he reflects the views of any substantial portion of thel people of Georgia. In my opinion | a third party ticket against thel ‘President in 1936 would not get enough votes to count. I hope the governor has been misquoted.” It has been reported that Gov ernor Talmadge may oppose Rus sell for the senate seat next year. Sceertary Ickes said he recog nized Georgia had procured a rel atively smaller proportion of PWA projects because of state constitu tional limtiations on indebtedness. He predicted that failure to enact legislation submitted by PWA would mean continued limited participation in the upcoming pro gram, “If we continue to operate PWA as we have in th< past,” he said, “on loan and grant or even a loan basis, we can't do anything for Georgia unless Georgia can givel us reasonable security in market able bonds.” ! Some to Go On The PWA administrator said he would allow $500,000 -of Georgia projects now under construction to go on, although the security was defective.
