BE Fil RESOLVED B„ L1 CITY COI21IS3IOlT 0? CIE CITE' OF 11JBBOCK
That ive protest against the earriarkinG of '.forks Progress
Administration Funds in the 13ill nol.-i pending before the
National Congress, to appropriate honey for relief work, because
we believe earmarking of such funds will hake it e..treneiy dif-
ficult for the City of Lubbock to obtain funds for relief work,
and to carry on such worl: as the City of Lubbock has been doing
with Jorks Progress Administration funds, and that earmarking
of such funds will in all probability hake it irpossible for the
City of Lubbock to secure any aduitional funds to conplete the
work the City id now doinC- -Tith forks Progress Adninistration
funds.
Any be it further Resolved that a copy of this Resolution
be sent to Congressnan George I1ahon and United :Mates Senators
1-:orris Sheppard and Tore Connelly, and ve respectfully request
said members of the National Congress - to tale such steps as they
deers necessary to prevent any change in the systeri of handling
and administering �Iorks Progress Adninistration funds.
