SAYS CONFIDENCE - WILL BOOM TRADE Senator Fess Asserts Coun- try Is Sound; Gifford Com- pleting Relief Groups. As Walter S. Gifford. national relief | director, today was putting the finish-| ing touches on his new committee to be headed by Owen D. Young of New | York to mobilize resources to relieve | distress among the ureemployed this Winter, Senator Fess, Republican, of Ohio declared an exchange of confi- dence between bankers and the public was imperative for the restoration of a situation most difficult to . Senator Fess said in a let- ter to a constituent; “the country has all the assets it ever has possessed with the single exception of confidence, There has been no great calamity since the World War involving destruction of property or loss of resources. Finds Bases Sound. “We have all the basic elements of a sound prosperity, including managerial ability. The one thing lacking is con- fidence in our financial institutions. How to insure this is our prob- lem. * * * For the life of me, I do not see how you can cure this lack of confidence, out, like the mumps, it must work itself out.” His_constituent had written to Sen- ator Fess, pointing out that in his Ohio town since March 15, a total of $357.028 had been deposited in postal savings. Meanwhile, commendation of the plan of the President’s Organization on Un- employment Relief was received at the White House from five Governors, while three previously had signified their hearty approval. Hope for Local Aid. The Governors indorsing_the plan were Cross of Connecticut, Brucker of Michigan, Emerson of Illinois, Parnell of Arkansas, Conley of West Virginia, Rolph of California, Winant of New Hampshire and Gardiner of Maine. They expressed confidence the States and cities would care for the local situations and pledged their co-opera- tion. In line with the campaign for gar- dening and canning surplus food, being sponsored by the President's organiza- tion, Agriculture Department officials said today they believed bread lines this Winter will find comparatively few farmers waiting their turns because of the increase in the diversification of crops throughout the country, but par- ticularly in the South. Reports to the department show more food for the home has been grown this year than ever before. The de- artment for years has urged the armer to raise his own food and feed. Officials said some listened, but a good many didn’t until hard times and dry weather taught them the error of their i ways. “There is more food and feed in the South than I've seen in my 27 years' experience,” J. A. Evans, assist- ant head of the Extension Service, said today. Sees Help in Adversity. Mr. Evans believed that in the end the drought and low price for cotton would help the South. *“Pretty hard medicine right now for the cotton grower,” he commented. “If most of them didn't have something in the pantry and garden, I don’t know what they would do.” While the primary purpose of the President’s organization is to provide relief, it is continuing its campaign to prevent distress by increasing employ- ment and keeping those who support families on salary rolls. To this end it is inaugurating a Nation-wide radio campaign today to encourage young people to stay in school until employment conditions im- prove. Willlam Green, president of the American Federation of Labor, this aft- ernoon is to make the first of a series of speeches to urge youths to remain in school and thereby not compete for Jobs with hecds ol families. Having virtu-lly completed selection of the committec ‘5 be headed by Mr. ‘Young, Mr. Gifford has made it kncwn that the same kind of men are being sought to form groups which will ad- minister relief funds and devise means :nf rlé.smhu!mg and increasing employ- ent. ‘Will Stimulate Interest. Mr. Young's job will be to stimulate interest in local fund-raising campaigns that are to be conducted from October 19 to November 25. The Gifford organization is attempting to have all drives conducted at that time. Before this period, however, it is is pianned to seek contributions frem wealthy citizens and big corporations in order to give the campaign a good start. In the meantime, President Hcover was studying the Nation's fiscal out- look with a view to continuing Federal construction, said to be furnishing em- ployment for 380,000 men. Government statistics indicate ap- propriaticns for public construction have jumped from $250,000,000 to $750,000,000. Officials considered this program a tremedous burden on na- .;mna] !Lnnn‘ces. tbut they added they vere preparing to carry it throi the fiscal year. i M Will Prevent Suffering. Administration officials were said to consider maintenance of the Govern- ment’s social obligations one of the big problems in fixing its fiscal policy. It was indicated governmental ma- chinery will be tuned to prevent suf- fering from starvation and cold, but no explanation was made as to how this would be accomplished. With the work of his organization ex- Ennd{n: steadily, Mr. Gifford expects to ave his organization in the Walker- Johnzon Building, 1740 New York n\'e-l nue, by the first of next week. Prepa- rations were continued today to move from the Commerce Department Build- ing. In the new bulf’dmg the relief organization will have one floor and part of another, where its forces can be centralized instead of being spread in scattered rooms at the Commerce De- partment. o SIX SPEND STORMY DAY INSIDE PLANE ON LAKE Pilot Lands Party at Destination in Canada Safely After Stop Until Weather Clears. By the Associated Press. PRINCE ALBERT, Saskatchewan, September 2.—After spending 24 of the 36 hours they were stormbound in the Northland with only the cabin of an airplane as shelter, a party of six, in- cluding T. C. Davis, former attorney gel;enl. was safe last night at Waskesiu e. Storms forced Pilot Broatch down on Emeline Lake Sunday shortly after he had taken off from Lac La Ronge for Waskesiu. There the six remained, subsisting on emergency rations as a wind and rain storm raged until a break came Monday afternoon. Then Broatch made a dash for Swan Lake, where a ‘hearty meal was eaten and the night spent in a trapper's cabin. As soon as the weather had cleared Broatch brought his passengers safely to Waskesiu. g s Two Die in Chemical Blast.

Declares Secretary THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C, WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 2, 1931 JONES SAYS HE WAS OUSTED FOR OPPOSING DOAK'S PLAN Opposed State and Local Co-operation in Employ- ment Offices. Prancis I. Jones intimated today that he was ousted as director general of the United States Employment Service be- cause he opposed plans of Secretary of Labor Doak to establish local Federal employment offices without the co- i)?efltlnn of the States and municipal- ties. “It has always been a policy of the Government to co-operate with the States and their political subdivisions,” Jones asserted in an interview, “and not to establish local Federal public em- ployment offices independent of them. The task of caring for the unemployed is primarily a State job and should be accomplished by the States under the direction and co-operation of the Fed- eral Government. Reed Stressed Point. “Senator Reed of Pennsylvania stressed this point in his reply to Gov. Pinchot's letter to President Hoover, calling for an extra session of Con- gress to assist in relieving unemploy- ment. The Senator said Pennsylvania always has been able to care for its| own people and would continue to do so without calling on the Government.” Jones said this poiicy of establish- ing employment exchanges only with the co-operation of the States had been the foundation upon which the employment service was built up over the last 10 years that he has been in charge. Starting with only one farm labor office, in Kansas City, in 1921, when he took over the post. Jones has set up 19 other offices throughout the agri- cultural belt. He established 23 spe- cialized employment offices for World War veterans and had proposed 44 ad- ditional exchanges. For this work he has been commended by the American Legion. Split Occurred in March. His first split with Secretary Doak occurred last March when John R. Al- pine, then affiliated with the American Federation of Labor, was placed over him with the title, “supervising direc- tor." It was in March, Jones disclosed in his letter of resignation, that Mr. Doak disapproved his plans to create ad- ditional employment offices to specialize in the placement of World War veterans. Subsequently, the Labor Secretary re- scinded his order abolishing this type of office after a protest from National Comdr. O'Neil of the American Legion and John Thomes Taylor, Legion at- | torney. “I “must admit,” Jones continued, “that I have ot worked as hard since | Mr. Alpine became supervising director as I did for the 10 years previously, as practically all of the work was taken out of my hands. No reason was given for relieving me of my duties, but obviously it was because the plan I had worked out to expand the service and help the unemployed in a practical way did not jibe with Mr. Doak's ideas.” Tells of Proposals. Jones sald he had proposed among other things: Extension of the farm labor service, enlargement of the information service, further development of the State co- operative service and establishment of 44 additional specialized employment | offices for war veterans. Secretary Doak rejected the proposal, according to Jones, because it did not take care of trainmen and labor. Re- plying to the Secretary, formerly an official of the Railroad Brotherhood, Jones said “Organized labor takes care of her own and the war veterans repre- sented a cross-section of all kinds of | labor.” “The offices and services set up by me are continuing in co-operation with the States and municipalities,” Jones said, “but the employment service under Mr. Alpine is establishing offices inde- pendent of the States. In many cases these exchanges are being set up in cities where the employment service | already has co-operative offices. “I do not propose wasting time and breath contradiction any of Mr. Al- pine’s statements. Time and patience are great chemicals and time will con- | firm my earlier statements of the futil- ity of the present set-up as an aid to the unemployed.” ‘Alpine announced this morning he | would hold a conference with newspaper men later today, at which he would outline his plans for carrying on the employment service. MDONALD IS SEEN RECAINING FAVOR Trade Union Heads Blamed by Members for Split With Premier. By the Associated Press. LONDON, September 2.—The tide of opposition against Prime Minister Mac- Donald and his parliamentary economy program was believe by some newspa- pers today to be turning in his favor. They noted increasing signs that many who followed the premier with devotion in years past ar: experiencing heartburnings over the split in Labor party and what has been de- scribed as the dictation of trade union- ism to Socialism. MacDonald recelves daily letters of sympathy and _encouragement from many parts of the country, and some of them are from Laborites who indi- cate that, while they favor his action to balance the budget. they are compelled as trade unionists to follow the direc- tions of their organizations. Suggest New Party. Some Lamorite candidates for the next election have written to assure him that he can count on their ad- herence and suggesting the formation of a new party to oppose the old Labor machine. An unnamed Laborite mem- ber of Parliament was quoted by the Daily Express as saying he had found that nine-tenths of his local executive 2greed with MacDonald's program, but could not openly support him. The idea is current zmong friends of the new government that when Par- liament meets a number cf Laborite members hitherto believed to be af tached to Arthur Henderson's banner will declare themselves supporters of the prime minister. Local authorities are following the government’s lead in starting to revise expenditures in the directicn of econ- omy. The London County Council, largest local authority in Great Britain, is holding up projects involving the out- lay of public mcney and various other London boroughs are deferring proposed building schemes. Such important provincial cities as Bristo!, Cardiff, Swansea, Nottingham. Portsmouth, Plymouth, Southampton and Derby, as well as smaller towns, are dropping or deferring costly plans for expenditures on public buildings, parks and other ventures. MacDonald informed his Seaham constituents today that he prcposes to retain his parliamentary seat for that constituency at least until he has con- cluded his task of setting British finances to rights. Position Is Determined. In the course of a letter to the Sea- ham Labor party which had demanded his resignation Mr. MacDonald said: “Any action I may take in response to any resolution passed wili be only after I have finished the duty which I am now undertaking and not before. “I regret very much that ithout knowing any of the facts Seaham Har- bor's Deputies have passed the resolu- tion which you have communicated. However great the misunderstandin may be and however much superficial observers may consider that my im- mediate collegues and I have departed from our principles, our position has been dictated by the determination to keep standards of living, unemployment pay and such like at the maximum pos- sible. N “If you are discussing these things necw, free of collapse and panic, you owe this solely to my colleagues and myself who tcok the action which we did last week. “We are determined that the sacri- fice which for the moment is necessary shall be spi as equitably as human ingenuity can do it, and if we are com- | pelled to ask the unemployed to accept | conditions which are above their con- ditions in 1929 it is because we wish to protect them against a deterioration which would be of real substance and amount to truly tragic hardships. “It may be difficult for you to racog- nize that, but such is the case and be- fore long you will know it. Duty Held Imperative. “The spirit of the letter which I wrote you some days ago is still my spirit, and I wish to repeat that I' put myself in your hands. In view of one part of your resolution, I desire to make it perfectly clear to you, however, that I shall not under any circumstances carry out the above intention, while it involves desertion of a duty which I consider to be imperative to protect the great mass of wage earners in this coun- try from serious dis1sf Mr. MacDonald's letter, addressed to William Cexon, secretary of the Sea- ham Labor party, said he would like to be present at Seaham Harbor on Septem- ber 12, when the local Labor party meml| act upon the resolution de- manding his resignation, but doubted work would - g o AP SRRSO~} oot rpotet b ARGUMENTS HEARD AT SLAYING TRIAL 'Mrs. Jones Stays on Stand for Five Hours Denying Son’s Testimony.

By the Associated Press. ALBANY, N. Y., September 2.—The New York Legislature will be asked to include in its consideration of an anti- crime program a law prohibiting the showing of gangster moving pictures. Senator James J. Crawford, Democrat, of Brooklyn has prepared a bill which would empower the Licensing Bureau of the Department of Education to deny a permit for films depicting gangs and gangster life. Gov. Roosevelt yesterday asked the special session of the Legislature to strengthen the laws inst the hood- lum, gangster and racketeer. Drinking Not Included. Senc'or Crawford’s measure would | make i. the duty of the License Bureau to deny a permit to a film “depicting gangs, gangster life and glorification of | crime and the criminal classes, or de- | pleting evils of gang life and crime or | criminals.” The Brooklyn law maker, whose dis- trict borders the scene of a recent gangster shooting, said he did not have in mind films showing drinking scenes, or violations of the prohibition laws. Gov. Roosevelt in this message urged the immediate enactment of legislation | to aid organized socfety in its campaign | against “lawlessness which expresses itself in terms of gang warfare, hold-ups and reckless shootings.” “Gangdom has challenged the strength of the law,” he declared. “That chal- lenge we must meet.” Gives Recommendations. His specific recommendations were: | 1. A bill prohibiting the sale and | private possession of machine guns. | 2. Strengthening of the State law | governing the purchase and possession of firearms. 3. Measures prohibiting the possession and use of automatics by “the modern type of gangster, the voluntary idler and the habitual criminal” and “other persons who may use them for criminal purposes. 4. A crime statute providing that “any person who lives habitually idle and bears an evil reputation, or is en- gaged in some illegal occupation, or con- sorts with thieves and criminals, or quents unlawful resorts.” guilty of disorderly conduct. He also sent to the Legislature letters from Acting Mayor Joseph McKee and Police Commissioner Edward P. Mul- rooney of New York City. which urged passage of a bill providing an extra penalty for a person possessing firearms who is arrested in a stolen automobile or one bearing fictitious license plates. Plans Interstate Move. ‘The Governor promised that if the Legislature strengthened the New York firearms law he would ask the co-opera- tion of other States to prevent the in- terstate shipment of weapons and to secure uniform legislation. The message was recelved without comment in the Senate and referred to th: Cormittee on Codes. The Governor added: “The form of the legislation is not nearly so impor: tant as the speed with which we can put it into telling effect.
