Executive Order No. 5596 of April 9, 1931, withdrawing public lands in Nevada, pending resurvey, is hereby revoked.
I recommend that an appropriation of $1,500,000,000 be provided for work relief for the fiscal year 1938.
I regard it as extremely important that we should achieve a balance of actual income and outgo for the fiscal year 1938.
We must resist these importunities or provide the necessary revenues to meet the increasing costs.
