Relief ‘Washington, Dec. 18.—(7)—A cab- Met discussion of proposals for an accurate check on the nation’s mil- the same month s year ago while! Woman Hit by Auto lions of unemployed was scheduled pe Friday by President Roosevelt. Meeting reporters for the first time since his peace-mission visit to Gouth America, and with the open- ing of congress only three weeks off, the cheief executive reiterated that he would ask a deficiency appropria- tion of about $500,000,000 to carry on relief for the remainder of the fiscal year, He will\deliver his annual message to congress personally, he said, when- ever it is convenient to leaders, The session opens Jan. 5 The presi- dent's message customarily is fol- lowed the next day by reading of the budget message. % To Remain Neutral In answer to questions about the house majority leadership contest, the president said he would stick to his established policy and take no sides, He said he would have no major a@ppointments to announce before dan, 1, it turn the cabinet conference on & census of the unemployed might take was not indicated, but some ‘weeks ago Mr. Roosevelt spoke favor- ably of a self-registration method. He also disclosed he plans to dis- euss with his cabinet whether two new battleships will be laid down for the American navy next year. Has Authority The last congress gave the chicf executive authority to order battle- ship construction, after the expira- tion this year of the Washington and London treaties, if he believes the building activity of any other sea power necessitates .additional. ships. Great Britain already has ‘ap- propriated funds for laying the keels | of two new battleships soon after Jan, 1.

A strike of 13,000 flat glass work- ers—whose output includes automo- bile glass—continued. Glen McCabe, head of their union, planned a meet- ing at the capital with Homer Mar- tin, chief of the United Automobile Workers, and John L. Lewis, with whose Committee for Industrial Or- ganization both eerie were affiliated. Cc leading The Libbey-Owens-Ford company, one of those affected by the strike, issued a statement Thursday accus- ing ‘‘a few of the union leaders” of “trying to mislead our employes and the public.” Negotiations failed to shake dead- locked “sit down” strikes involving 5,500 Detroit employes of the Kelsey- Heyes Wheel Co., and the Aluminum Company of America, The Flint, Mich., city commission named a committee Thursday night to investigate possible leasing of equipment used by a bus company | _ whose facilities were tied up for the 1th day by a strike of 106 drivers.
