Excerpt from The Public Works Administration Inasmuch as the statutes governing the p.w.a. Have been few and general in their provisions, and since no periodic reports have been issued by the establishment, the writer has had to rely on a considerable variety of sources for information concerning the activities of the p.w.a. These include executive orders issued by the President, the opinions of the Attorney General and of the Comptroller General, the hearings before committees of Congress, and the publications of the p.w.a. Considerable use has been made of administrative orders, press releases, and similar materials generally issued in mimeographed form, as well as of the rules and regulations available in printed form. Some use has also been made of non-governmental publications. These sources have been supplemented by personal interviews and by correspondence with officials of the establishment. The manuscript of this study was completed early in 1938. Since then, a new public works program under the supervision of the Public Works Administration has been inaugurated. It has not been practicable to incorporate in the text the changes effected as part of this new pro gram. However, a summary of the present statutory arrangements has been inserted as a footnote on page 28. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Back to Work: The Story of Pwa IN order to correct the ills Of unemployment and again to start the wheels Of industry, the national administration, in midsummer of 1933, under power granted to it by Congress, undertook a program Of public works. Pwa, as this enterprise soon came to be known after our Ameri can fashion Of familiar abbreviations, has aroused and held the interest Of the people in every part Of the land. SO far-flung have been its activities that there are few sections Of the country where visible evidence Of pwa may not be seen by the interested. In hundreds Of thou sands Of homes pwa has meant steady wages, which in their turn have meant food and shelter and clothing, with perhaps a bit left over for some of the comforts and modest luxuries Of life.

Excerpt from Harlem River Houses: Federal Emergency Administration of Public Works To a pronounced degree, housing in Harlem is of the old-law tenement type, with all this means in lack of air, light, and sanitation. Many of the rooms have plenty of space for sleeping bunks, because their walls are punctuated by no windows whatsoever. These dank grottoes effectively prop agate, among other crops, the sturdier germs of ravaging disease. The most characteristic factor of Negro housing, as distinguished from white, is the relatively huge proportion of income which rent extorts. The theoretical ideal proportion of rent to income, of 20 to 25 percent, means nothing to these people who are forced to spend up to even 50 percent of normal earnings for shelter.

Excerpt from Municipal Administration Much has been written on various aspects and problems of municipal administration, and some brief general outlines have also appeared; but nothing has thus far been published which can claim to be more than a partial or an elementary treatment, as indeed the authors would be the first to admit. This stage of fragmentary writing has been a necessary and an important one is developing the discussion and literary treatment of a new subject of large and growing significance. It would seem, however, that the time has now come for a more comprehensive and more systematic treatise, and it is an attempt in this direction that the writer makes bold to present this work. The title, "Municipal Administration," probably conveys a general idea of the subject to the minds of readers. Yet such is the vagueness and uncertainty with which words are used that it will be worth while to make the conception more exact by some definition of terms. Administration is a general term with the widest range of meaning, applying to the management of any kind of business. In reference to public affairs, administration is the detailed execution of general policies, the application of laws. It is to be contrasted and distinguished from legislation, and is indeed the work of public officials, established and set in operation by legislative measures. Municipal administration is that branch of public administration intrusted to municipal officials. The duties of such officials are almost exclusively of an administrative rather than a legislative character; and for that reason the title given is preferred to the less definite term "municipal government." It is necessary, further, to note more carefully the scope of the word "municipal." About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Principles of Public Personnel Administration The Institute for Government Research is an association of citizens for cooperating with public officials in the scientific study of government with a view to promoting efficiency and economy in its operations and advancing the science of administration. It aims to bring into existence such information and materials as will aid in the formation of public opinion and will assist officials, particularly those of the national government, in their efforts to put the public administration upon a more efficient basis. To this end, it seeks by the thorough-going study and examination of the best administrative practice, public and private, American and foreign, to formulate those principles which lie at the basis of all sound administration, and to determine their proper adaptation to the specific needs of our public administration. The accomplishment of specific reforms the Institute recognizes to be the task of those who are charged with the responsibility of legislation and administration; but it seeks to assist, by scientific study and research, in laying a solid foundation of information and experience upon which such reforms may be successfully built. While some of the Institute's studies find application only in the form of practical cooperation with the administrative officers directly concerned, many are of interest to other administrators and of general educational value. The results of such studies the Institute purposes to publish in such form as will insure for them the widest possible utilization.

Excerpt from The Economic Revolution of India: The Public Works Policy "Oh, when degree is shaded. Which is the ladder to all high designs, Then enterprise is sick." Shakespeare. "I have known merchants with the sentiments and abilities of great statesmen; and I have seen persons in the rank of statesmen, with the conceptions and characters of pedlars." - Burke's speech on Mr. Fox's East India Bill. "It is not certain that the despotism of twenty millions is necessarily better than that of a few, or of one." - J. S. Mill. "The best state for human nature is that in which, while no one is poor, no one desires to be richer, nor has any reason to fear being thrust back, by the efforts of others to push themselves forward." - J. S. Mill. "After clearly seeing that the structures and actions throughout a society are determined by the properties of its units, and that (external disturbances apart) the society cannot be substantially and permanently changed without its units being substantially and permanently changed, it becomes easy to see that great alterations cannot suddenly be made to any purpose." - Herbert Spencer.

Excerpt from Civil Service Administration Efinitiojn. Civil service administration has in. The past been that branch of the public service which has jurisdiction over the selection of civilian employes required to carry on the public business. In most cases these employes have been selected by means of competetive tests. With the recent introduction of service records, the recent development of promotion examinations and the prosecution of efficiency studies, the sphere of the civil ser vice administration has been gradually enlarged, and when the present day interest in salary classification, in service instruction and in centralized disciplinary control has been crystalized into legislation, civil service administration will include most of the activities whch in private life are com prehended within the field of employment management.

Excerpt from Public Buildings: A Survey of Architecture of Projects Constructed by Federal and Other Governmental Bodies Between the Years, 1939 The information in this book is based on a report made for the President in May 1939 by the "Committee on Architectural Surveys." The report was called "Survey of the Architecture of Completed Projects of the Public Works Administration." The Committee consisted of the two authors of this book, who were appointed by the then Administrator of the Federal Emergency Administration of Public Works and by the then Director of Procurement of the Treasury Department. Since the report was compiled, the Public Works Administration and the Public Buildings Branch of the Procurement Division were transferred to the Federal Works Agency, on July 1, 1939, together with the Works Progress Administration, the Public Roads Administration, and the United States Housing Authority, in accordance with the reorganization plan of President Franklin D. Roosevelt. In order to obtain the best and most representative selection of projects for that Survey, a Selection Committee was formed consisting of four architects, three being in the Government and one who was brought in from private practice for this purpose. The exact information about each Non-federal project was obtained from the records by representatives brought in from each of the Regional Offices of the P. W. A. The information about Federal projects was obtained by direct contact with the departments, bureaus, and agencies of the Federal Government. The opinions expressed in this volume are those of the authors only. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
