= THIRD PARTY PERIL AGAIN TOLD COOLIDGE Stanley Washburn Says Movement Is Growing in Several ‘Western States. KANSAS SEEN FOR PRESIDENT Representative Tincher Reports on Farmer-Aid Bill. President Coolidge was warned.to- day by Stanley Washburn of Kargo, D, that the much-talked-of third- party movement is growing in the west. Mr. Washburn. who is with the National Forestry Association, said that the political unrest among farm- crs should not be minimized or ig- nored. “There are cight states,” Mr. Wash- burn said, after his interview with middle and north west. A third-party movement will doubtless carry North and South Dakota, Minnesota, Wis- consin, Montana, possiblly ' lowa, along with perhaps Washington, Ore- #on and Nebraska, unless it is pre- vented by vigorous politioal action without delay. Faith in Coolidge. Mr. Vashburn sald that If'Presi- dent Coolidge is elected next fall it will be because of the voters’ faith in Coolidge and in spite of the republi- can party. “The people of the section of the country 1 am familiar with," he said, “feel that Presiderit Coolidge s on the square and will not play politics with big questios The vice pres- idential candidate should be a man trom the west, he holds : | President Coolidge today received & | delegation of Michigan lawyers, head- | |ed by Senator Cousens, who urged the appointment of Judge Arthur J.

The employment situation in Wash- ington was declared today by the federal employment service to be very much Improved over conditions dur- ing the winter, with every prospect for conditions in the very near future that will “greatly reduce the number of unemployed in this city.” Revi wing the month of March and looking into the future for the re- maining months of spring, Director Robert L. Plikington of the local em- ployment office said a surplus of #killed and common labor reported xisting in Washington during ocutive session, and, in his opinion, if it finally passes Congress, he feels certain the authors will not recognize their original product. He said he got_the impression that the President Eebruary diminished considerably during March, and employment con- ditions have improved. There has been a falr demand for female glerical help, principally for folding and sealing work, while a good call for stenographers and typ- ists Is reported. Bullding operations were declared to be increasing slow- 1y, among the most prominent addi- tions being a million-dollar improve- ment project started in connection with o local department store and & 450-room addition to the New Willard Hotel, to be commenced soon. Quite & number of small building activities are under way, the federal director sald, and will 'undoubtedly increase in volume with more settled weather conditions. Heavy demands are being made for labor for the wrecking of Camp Meade. Industrial activity in nearby Vir- ginla continues on a fairly satisfac- tory soale, with sklled labor very well employed for this seaso nof the year. There is, however, sOome sur- plus of common labor apparent in some sections of the state. In Maryland there is very little un- employment apparent in any section of the state and industrial conditions | are reported as excellent. Fair sized | building programs are contemplated s during the coming months, with | operations already bLegun in some | cities. Demands are being made In some quarters for farm labor.

Senator Johnson denied knowledge of the impending conference when his at- tention was called to reports that it was to be held, and made the same comment—*I know nothing about it"— with reference to predictions that he might soon withdraw as an active candidate. { Faikire of the campaign methods thus far pursued to get the dosired number of delegates im the west and middle west, however, has obviously dixappointed some of his supporters, and they are expected to Suggest various changes. The same returns, on the other hand, have proved encouraging to the Cool- idge managers, and they are going forward with post-convention cam- paign plans on the assumption that the President is assured of the nomination, WIill Fight in California.
