PAGE 6 LAUNCH STATE DRIVE TO FIND JOBS Unemployment Commission Will Be Named by Governor Emmerson. liti United Press CHICAGO, Oct. 14. forces of business, industry, bank ing, labor, church, social welfare and state government will be or ganized definitely Wednesday to plan Immediate relief for the un employment situation. A state commission on unemploy ment, with an unlimited repre sentation from all these organiza tions, and probably others, will be appointed by Governor Louis L. Emmerson and will endeavor to solve its problem within sixty days, it was decided late Monday at a preliminary conference called by the Governor. Early Relief Necessary “Whatever remedy is applied, it must come within the next thirty or sixty days,” Albert Fisher of the Illinois Federation of Labor told the conference. "The worst hasn’t come in my opinion,” said Fisher. "I don’t know what is going to happen. These people won’t see their wives and children starve, not even if they must steal.” Others of the dozen speakers who explained to Governor Emmerson conditions in Illinois were not as pessimistic as was Fisher, but there were few notes of real optimism in any of the reports and it generally was agreed the situation was worse than in any year since 1921. Barney Cohen, state superintend ent of labor, estimated there were 400,000 unemployed men in the state. He said employment had decreased 17.3 per cent this year and that Illinois is facing its hardest winter in a decade. Suffering Is Very Real Expressing a desire not to “paint the picture darker than it is, but to face facts as they Ire,” Gover nor Emmerson, who had just re turned from a similar conference in New York, explained the purpose of the meeting. "While I believe present industrial conditions are the backwash of de pression and financial Insecurity in European nations and are to a con siderable extent due to state of mind on the part of the public, nevertheless, the resultant lack of employment and the suffering of many thousands of people is very real," he said. G. 0. P. TABLOID TO BE ELECTION WEAPON New Campaign Journal Will Appear Saturday at Washington. WASHINGTON, Oct. 14.—A week ly tabloid journal dealing with gov ernment affairs from the adminis tration standpoint will make its ap pearance Saturday as an additional Republican campaign weapon. While th- Republican national committee \-'s understood today to be sponsoring the journal, its financ ing was said to have been arranged by a group of President Hoover’s ciose friends. Distribution on a national scale of some 75,000 copies weekly was planned to continue at least through the November elections, and possibly indefinitely. David Henshaw of New York, for merly associated with Republican publicity, is the editor. • The tabloid will be printed here as “Washington, a Journal of In formation and Opinion.” MILK FLOODS STREETS Dairy Wagon, Ice Truck Collide; Both Are Overturned.

Raub, general secretary of the Indiana Salvation Army and Mr. and Mrs. William A. Mclntyre. Salvation Army Leaders Point to Types Made by Depression. BY SHELDON KEY Winds of fate may toss the “down and outer” to and fro before an un heeding world, but they do not cool the pride of a gentleman. It is with this unbending pride Salvation Army workers must deal. It’s pride that is causing the job less to sleep on sidewalk pallets rather than ask succor of charity. This was revealed by the confer ence of Salvation Army leaders in Indianapolis today at which William A. Mclntyre, Salvation Army com missioner for eleven midwest states, is presiding officer. New Kind of Dependent “Recent unemployment has brought forth anew kind of de pendent—the man who is out of a job for the first time—and we are studying how to help him without hurting his pride,” Mclntyre de clared at the meeting today. Here is how it’s being done in some cities of the midwest. In Chicago, where Salvation Army leaders say conditions are worse, William Wrigley Jr. has helped solve the problem. In a five-story building, donated by Wrigley, two thousand jobless men are given lodging and food. But as Mclntyre explained, This is not a ‘free gratis’ institution. In stead, it is a co-operative settlement in which the men work for one an other.” Unlike Owen’s New Harmony so ciety, the midwest’s earliest example of common, community living, the Chicago project is succeeding. Neces sity is its own master. Work to Earn Bread It banishes pride because men, brought in from the streets, are given work by whilh to earn their bread. They may even follow their own particular trades. The barbers do the barbering, cooks prepare the food, tailors mend the clothing, cobblers repair the shoes until the w T ants for all are provided in this way. “We had to repair the building in Chicago," Mclntyre said, “so we surveyed our army of jobless men and picked out the brick masons, carpenters and helpers and set them to work under a capable contractor. ’ “In ways such as this, the Salva tion Army leaders of the midwest are aiming to aid the unemployment problem,” Mclntyre declares. EARL AND ELZA GET ALONG ‘JUST DANDY’ Friendly Notes Pass in Mistake on Election Letter. A little humor was injected in the state political campaign today through the exchange of polite notes by the state chairmen. In the mail addressed to R. Earl Peters, Democratic chief, was a letter from an Elkhart county G. O. P. worker containing a printed list of county workers. Peters mailed the list to Elza O. Rogers, Republican leader with a note saying that although he knew many Republicans were Democratic in their sentiments this year, he had not expected that list of workers would be submitted to him. Rogers countered with a letter de claring: “You see we are conducting this campaign absolutely on the level and my instruction to all of my precinct committeemen and women is to submit lists of workers to you for your approval. I believe in co operation.” EATING A SWEET IN MID-AFTERNOON RESTORES VIGOR Fatigue Quickly Overcome by Sugar Content of Candy, Cake or Beverage "Fagged out” at four o’clock ia an experience that nearly every business man and woman faces daily. Asa matter of fact this condition has become so apparent that it has been studied by medical men and food scientists. One of the best "remedies” dis covered for this mid-afternoon fa tigue was “something to eat.” Experiments showed that when a few pieces of candy, ice cream or cookies were eaten, vitality was quickly restored. The same was true when a flavored beverage was drunk—such as water sweetened with sugar. The refined sugar content of these foods is responsible for the renewed vigor. For when refined sugar is eaten it almost immediately supplies nourishment to the body. And when the system is nourished fatigue disappears. American business people are fortunate in being near places where candy, ice cream and bever ages are sold. With practically no loss of time and very little ex pense, a mid-afternoon snack can be enjoyed. Most foods are mqre deligigßs and nourishing with sugar. The sugar Institute. GAMBLER SHOT DOWNJN CAR One Bullet Is Fired Into Heart by Chicago Foe. IJ}u United Press CHICAGO, Oct. 14.—David W. Emmett, 39, said by police to have been one of Chicago’s most suo cessful gamblers, was killed late Monday night by a gunman, who jumped upon the running board of Emmett’s automobile and fired one shot into his heart. The killing occurred in front of the gambler’s home. Stephen Platon, garage owner, who was with Emmett at the time of the shooting, said Emmett had offered to take him home in his car, and had paused in front of Em mett’s home to talk for a few min utes. “Look out, duck!” Platon quoted Emmett as shouting when a gun man, who alighted from an auto mobile about 150 feet away, stepped on to the running board of Emmett’s car. Platon jumped. The gunman fired, and the car, started quickly by its terrified driv er, raced across the street, jumped a curb and was wrecked against a fence. The killer, meantime, ran back to his own car, and escaped. In Emmett’s pockets, police found a handwritten list bearing numerous notations of dates and amounts of money from SIOO to $5,000. Emmett formerly operated sev eral notorious gambling resorts, and acquired wealth as a handbook operator. JIMMY TIRED OF MAYOR JOB X ‘All Glory Gone, Glitter Worn Off,’ Says Walker. Bv United Press NEW YORK, Oct. 14.—James J. Walker is tired of being mayor of New York. ' “All the glory is gone and the glitter is off,” he said in a speech Monday night before the United Real Estate Owners Association. “It’s just a hard job. Someone else ought to have it. I want noth ing save to leave the city a little better than I have found it. That’s all I want to live on for the rest of my life.” Walker’s attitude was revealed after he had told the real estate men of the city’s recent graft trou bles. He admitted there might be irregular practices among the in spection departments of his admin istration. “If there ever was a travesty on government it is the inspection service in our city,” the mayor de clared. Referring that the inspectors have been taking money from citizens, the mayor said he.had been un able to find a single property owner who would specifically charge an inspector with demanding graft. “I would kick such an inspector out myself, to make an example of him,” Walker said.

BY PAUL HARRISON JiEA Service Writer NEW YORK, Oct 14.—Radio is answering the demands of its air wise audience —a vast army of lis teners estimated to be increasing at the rate of 400,000 a month—and is entering the fall and winter season with advances in every branch of its service—entertain ment, education, advertising and the promotion of international re lations. The ten-year-old industry, or in dustrial art, an established commer cial success, is preparing to pour vast sums into its already large budgets for talent and broadcasting facilities Practically all the program favor ites of last year are to be on the air again, and will be generally avail able to larger areas of reception. A number of new programs are being started which promise to rank high in popularity when they are estab lished. Most important of new radio features probably is a series of twenty-seven concerts by the New York Philharmonic symphony, famed 88-year-old organization, which never before has gone on the air. Columbia is putting this, as well as a series of fifteen concerts for children and young people, on its nation-wide network. Wells to Be Heard Other Columbia programs include 105 broadcasts in the 1930-31 Ameri can School of the Air, specially pre pared for classrooms, “The Radio Follies” and a number of other widely varied sustaining features, including a series of broadcasts from London. The latter will bring the voices of celebrities such as John Masefield, Viscount Astor, H. G. Wells and Lord Beavei brook. Several new commercial programs have been organized, some revised and others have taken on additional time. Elgin (NBC) has jumped from two to eight broadcasts each week; Evangeline Adams (CBS) will horo scope virtually the entire nation; Atwater Kent (NBC) will continue its search for big names, has signed Madame Louise Homer, and is re ported to be angling for Paderewski; Lucky Strike (NBC) has bought an extra forty-five-minute period each week. Whiteman to Broadcast Paul Whiteman (CBS) will broad cast regularly for the first time from a supper club, and Guy Lom bardo, Columbia’s most popular orchestra leader, will be heard oftener this year, though sometimes anonymously. “Death Valley Days” (NBC), a new program glorifying borax, seems slated for a big hand from the fans this winter, arid so are the Johns-Manville Fire Fighters (CBS), another new commercial feature. Both national organizations have enlarged their staffs of “special events” experts and will pay in creased attention to radio report ing. Sports promoters and athletic associations generally have acceded to the demands for broadcasts of their matches and games.

BY FREDERICK KUH United Press Staff Correspondent BERLIN, Oct. 14.—President Paul Von Hindenburg appeared ready to take over the reins of the German government today if the cabinet of Chancellor Heinrich Bruening tot tered from its weak position in the reichstag. The first session of the new par liament lasted only eighty minutes and was marked by uproar within the reichstag and rioting and anti- Semitic demonstrations in the streets of the capital. Bruening’s position was threat ened when the economic party asked Minister of Justice Johann Bredt to resign, but President Von Hinden burg saved the situation, at least temporarily, by persuading the min ister to remain in office. Defy Reichstag Regulation Adolph Hitler’s Fascists, wearing their brown shirts and uniforms in the reichstag in defiance of parlia mentary regulation, today dis claimed all responsibility for the in cidents at the opening session. A Fascist communique attributed rioting partly to “a spontaneous outbreak of mass fury” and partly to Commurtist agitation. A police communique, however, said that rioters arrested were Fsscists. The Nationalist press seized the opportunity to declare that the agi tators were Communists who had appropriated Fascist slogans to compromise their political rivals. 95 Men Are Arrested Ninety-five men were arrested during the rioting, the police an nounced. The rioters concentrated their at tacks on Jewish department stores, mostly in the vicinity of the Pots damer Platz. Strong police guards, patroling the vicinity of the Prussian diet, today dispersed crowds of extrem ists and curious when the diet con vened at 1 p. m. The diet and reichstag neighbor hoods comparatively were quiet with police in motor lorries patrol ing the districts. DANGER OF ‘MACHINE SURGERY’ IS CITED Sympathy, Kindliness Called as Vital as Accurate Diagnosis. By Science Service PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 14. A plea to save the practice of surgery from becoming too much of a product of the machine age was voiced by Dr. C. Jeff Miller of New Orleans, in his presidential address before the first general session of the annual clinical congress of the American College of Surgeons here Monday. The virus of standardization, characteristic of present-day Amer ican civilization, has infected Amer ican medicine, he said. Hospitals, medical schools, laboratory methods and medical and surgical treat ments have been standardised in many respects, the patients are bet ter off as a result. But there fs a limit to standardization. Medicine and surgery have reached this limit. Hand in hand with accurate di agnosis and scientific treatment, should go sympathy and kindliness and pitifulness on the part of the physician, which will awaken faith, hope and trust on the part of the patient —CLIP THIS COUPON— R INDIANA ook r=n BAUROOM ■ “— 1 Scotch Dance TONIGHT Present at Box Office.

Miss Arnold will play the lead in “Coquette,” which she did in stock in Chicago last season. Byron will act as director and will also be the leading man in this company.

When this department tried to find out if there was sufficient strength for Berkell, Byron and others to come back to this city the re- sponse was most encouraging.

You can address your messages to Milton Byron in care of the Ho tel Davenport, Davenport, la. u n n MEETING SOME PERSONALITIES There are several personalities on the bill at the Lyric this week which commands attention. I believe that most of my interest centered upon the way the Four Karreys twisted and turned their bodies in many shapes. Here is an act which might come under the mere head of being just another one of those athletic acts. But the Karreys are more than that. They have a routine which never becomes just a mere routine. The three men who do the work have enough personality to get the hu man contact with the audience. When one of the men twists his body in several different shapes, he also has a smile on his face and not one of those hospital expressions. I liked this act; in fact, every minute of it. And I believe you will agree with me when you see them. Evelyn Dean has surrounded her self with six men who know how to dance. The work of two of the men stands out. The act has a good finish from an applause standpoint when the men toss Miss Dean nearly all over the stage. The act has a pleasant feeling. Raffles goes in for magic at the beginning of his act and ends with his safe mystery. He places a girl and a boy in a safe, blindfolds him self and then fingers out the com bination of the safe. Bob and Margie Dupont go in for juggling. That is, Bob is the big shot. Have maintained for years he is the best of his kind. Greene and Clifford have a bunch of eccentric fun of the rough and tumble order, but done in fine style. Takes a little time to get wise to them, but the fun is there and done splendidly at times. Comedy efforts of Raines and Avey failed to Impress me at any time. The movie feature Is Grant Withers In “Sinners’ Holiday.” Now at the‘Lyric. Other theaters today offer: “Fol low Thru” at the Circle; “All Quiet on the Western Front” at the Ohio. “Scarlet Pages” at the Indiana; “Moby Dick” at the Apollo; “Whoo pee” at the Palace; movies at the Colonial, and burlesque at the Mutual. • Two in Autos Hurt ANDERSON, Ind., Oct. 13.—Two persons were injured when an auto mobile driven by Bradley, New castle, collided with a truck driven by Elmo Flatt.
