The commute investigator, Geo. J. Shillito, said yesterday this was made possible by a "state supply fund project" which Secretary of Commerce Hopkins authorized when he was federal relief admin istrator. This project, Shillito said, included 1,200 workers handling general WPA operations, although there were 1,119 persons already listed as administrative employes. The witness was asked if similar "supply projects" were authorized elsewhere and, in response, he read an order to establish one in Ohio.

The order carried the approval of Hopkins and David K. Niles, WPA official. Rep. Taber (R-NY) asked if "This is a subterfuge to keep the books from showing that the administrative cost is as high as it actually is?" The project, in effect, split administrative expenses, Shillito said. LAUNDRY WORKER KILLED CARDINGTON, O.
