YOUR LIVING ~ ROOM IPART-TIMEE WORK PLAN IN EFFECT Labor Suggestion Being Fol- lowed in Many Industries, Croxton Says. | By the Assoclated Press. The American Federation of Labor’s suggestion that full-time jobs for a few be made into part-time jobs for many already has been put into prac- tice in some instances by American in- dustry. A continued tendency in that direc- tion was reported today by Fred Crox- ton, vice chairman of the President’s EmergencyCommittee for Employment. Croxtcn, who is in charge of the committee’s work while Chairman ‘Woods studies unemployment in Europe, said large numbers of workers have | been provided a living during the de- { pression by employers dividing avail- able work, and that this policy still is being followed. Barnes Backs Plan. A special committee of the United States Chamber of Commerce, appoint- ed to study means of stabilizing em- ployment, is including the apllc-work | plan in its survey. It has the backing of Julius Barnes, chairman of the board of the chlmber, who urged the committee to give it special consid- eration. Officials of the American Federation | ct Labor, of the chamber and of the President’s committee have all been informed of instances in which the 'alan has been put into actual opera- jon. Included by Willlam Green. ‘The scheme was given added prom- inence this weck by its inclusion in a general plan advanced by William Green, Emlden! of the federation, for npprou ing problems of the depression. The announcement of his program followed utterances in which he said labor should strike to prevent wage cuts, if nothing else proved effective. Both Secretary of Labor Doak and Croxton said that in their opinion there always were around 1,500,000 persons_out of work and that only those above that number could be con- sidered unemployed because of the de- pression.

ALWAYS ASKBY NAME Former Secretary Pro-| duces Written Agree- ment in Probate Court. By the Assoclated Press. CHICAGO, May 29.—As a reward for having broken an engagement to marry seven years ago, Miss Nan Kamp, 31, of St. Louls was awarded $96,265 in Probate Court yesterday from the estate of her late employer, Samuel Levitt. Levitt, wealthy hotel owner, of Chi- cago and St. Louls died last December 29, leaving an estate of $1,000,000 and a bequest of $3,735 to Miss Kamp, who had been his secretary since 1921. The rest of the estate was left to Levitt's widow, Bessle, and his three children, all of St. Louis. Miss Kamp filed claim for $96,265 and revealed an unusual story of a broken engagement. “In 1923 I became engaged,” she told Probate Judge H. C. Daniels. “Mr. Levitt was upset when I told him I was | contemplating marriage. He asked me not to marry and promised to bequeath me $100,000 in hls will if I broke off the engagement and remained his sec- retary until death.” | She produced a written agreement in court, and Harry K. Curtis, an attor- ney and son of Vice President Charles Curtis, testified as to her assistance in | helping Levitt build his fortune. | ERNEST S.

BRIAND AND LAVAL VOTED CONFIDENCE French Chamber Upholds Policies in Four Suc- cessive Polls. By the Associated Press. PARIS, May 29.—Upheld in four suc- cessive votes of confidence by the Chamber of Deputies, Premier Pierre Laval and Foreign Minister Aristide Briand looked forward today to smooth sailing until the formal dissolution of the government at the installation of the new President on June 13. Late last night tbe chamber voted approval of a cabinet resolution imply- ing confidence by a margin of 532 to 256. Earller the chamber had indorsed th the officlals’ policies by votes of 298 to 263 and 318 to 261. On still another motion confidence was voted by 319 to 257. M. Laval and M. Briand combined forces to repel the attack of the radi- cals, who forced the debate from for- eign to domestic policles, Laval was attacked on the conservative composi- tion of his ministry and Briand on his treatment of the Austro-German cus- toms accord at Geneva. “My majority has always besn faith- ful to me, and I have never betrayed it,” said M. Laval. “The government’s for- elgn policy is not at stake, There is no difference between it and M. Briand's policy.” In reference to Franco-Italian rela- tions, the foreign minister said: “Italy is a great nation, having her | own viewpoint, but she has supported the Prench viewpoint whenever it was possible for her to do so. Our relations toward that country are evolving toward complete agreement.” CiYRATEOFMAGR!I SiA RATION DAY New Homes Open Today—Big Reductions ‘ You Can Buy One of These Homes | —for the Rent You Are Now Paying— 3rd St. N.W.
