LLINDSPEPHRE TORELEVEWANT State Plans to Build Up Re- serve Without Calling for Federal Help. Wed 50 Years ANNIVERSARY CELEBRATED AT HOME HERE. Bpecial Dispatch to The Star. CHICAGO, February 20.—A definite | program to meet unemployment relief | problems on a State-wide basis, with- | out recourse to ‘ary request for assist- | ance from the Federa. Treasury, is shaping up in Illinois. | Under the stress of necessity, this State is pioneering in the field of co- ordinated relief work, through a new- ly created Illinois emergency relief commisison, backed with an initial $18,750,000 supplied by State credit. ‘This fund is in the nature of a re- serve, available for the county units which exhaust their local efforts. Al- lotment of funds from the State pool is on a loan basis, with repayment to be made through the county portion of the State gasoline tax. Federal Appeal Unlikely. By this method, administration of relief remains a local obligation and continues to lie in the hands of local committees who are in direct touch with individual needs. There are no State gifts of funds on an outright basis, and, it is fully expected, there will be no occasion for an appeal to the Federal Government for aid. % The development is considered the more significant because Chicago is presumed to present the most pressing relief problem in the Nation—with 640.- 000 normally employed persons listed as out of work in a population of 3.000,- 000. The collapse of Chicago’s city and county credit and the general pros- of government disorganization only complicated the situation. Voluntary relief contributions of more than $10,000,000 were exhausted here this month, necessitating emergency action to prevent widespread suffering. The State Legislature, called into spe- cial session, stepped into the breach by setting up an emergency relief commis- sion and providing it with a credit of | $18,750,000, which is being raised through a State-endorsed note issue. ‘Will Survey State.

THE SUNDAY STAR, WASHINGTON, DE VALERA'S LEAD MOVES 10 12 SEATS Leader of Fianna Fail Seen as Almost Certain Win- ner of Elections. By the Associated Press. DUBLIN, Irish Free State, February | 20.—Eamon de Valera, leader of the Fianna Fail, gained steadily today s | the count of the ballots cast in Tues- day’s general elections neared a close | and it appeared almost certain he would be asked to form & new government. | ‘The Fianna Fail and its labor ;ug- porters had a total of 71 seats in the | Dail Eiarann, & margin of 12 over the 59 seats won by President Cosgrave's Government party and its independent | allies. Results from 23 contests were | still out. H The Standing. ‘The standing of the parties was: Fianna Fail . Labor Government . Independents In De Valera circles it was sald one of the first moves of the new govern- ment would be to review the sentences recently imposed by the military tri- bunal recently set up by President Cos- grave's government to try cases of al- leged disloyalty and the suspension of the tribunal’s activity. ‘The anti-De Valera forces were can- vassing the possibility of forestalling the election of a De Valera goverment | by the Dail, but the belici prevailed that the enmity of the Labor groups to President Cosgrave would przvent any shift in the alignment of the seconda.y parties. | Tarift Attack Feared. The Irish Times quoted an unnamed high British cabinet official as saying: “It may be an awkward position for us, | but I can tell you we are not contem- plating sending any Black Indians or warships to Ireland. “Mr. de Valera has no other market for his butter, eggs and meat, however, and we are not going te take his sug- gested repudiation of the Anglo-Irish treaty without some counter-stroke. (This reference was to the possibility of Britain’s using the tariff as a weapon.) If he rekindles the old fires of bitterness which recently died down the consequences must rest upon his own head. We certainly will act.” MINSTREL TO BE GIVEN | The Maryland State Society of the | | District will hold & minstrel show and | entertainment at the Washington Club Thursday night at 8:30 o'clock.

STIMSON TO DECIDE FATE OF DIPLOMAT Chrictian Channing Gross Listed as Absent Six Months Without Leave. By the Assoclated Press. The fate of the diplomatic career of marked for six months on State De- marked for six months on Statet De- partment lists as “absent _without leave,” will rest finally with Secretary Stimson. Gross some six months ago left a Chicago court room to avoid a sum- mons by the attorney of his former wife, Virginia Harrison Gross, daughter of the former governor general of the Philippines, for contempt of court in New York. For some years Gross has been involved in litigation with his former wife. ‘The diplomat had been assigned to the legation in Ottawa, but did not re- turn there. During the past few days he has been in Washington, unknown to many of his friends. | _The personnel board of the State | Department had his case before it and they will leave for Secretary Stim- son’s determination whether being ab- sent without leave justifies dismissal from the diplomatic service.
