_— STATISTICS WILL BE USED IN FIGHT Smith Intends to Battle Hoover | With Figures Washington, Aug. 14 (UP)—Al- fred E. Smith will meet Houver on a battlefleld of statistics 80 far as the issue of “prosperity” 8 concerned, it was indicated today. Close senatorial friends of the New York governor learned, pertected to their satisfa tion a campaign argument of “in- creased unemployment under repub- lican rule,” which they will use in the effort to elect the Smith. They will attempt to employ Hoover's own words against him in their speeches for Smith. The re- publican candidate said, in review- ing eight years of his party’s ten “Great progress has been made in stabiliaztion of commerce and in- dustry. The jJob of every man has thus been made morve secure. Un- employment in the sense of distress is widely disappearing . a gen- eral reduction in the tarff would fill our streets with idle workers. + .. At one time we demanded for our workers ‘a tull dinner pail” We have now gone far beyond that con- ception. Today w= demand larger comfort and greater participation in life and 1o The democratic senators plan to quote these ments to their audiences, and then to declare that they are incorrect. They will assert, cn the basis of 1. §& burcan of la- bor statistics, that thongh there are more potential workers in the coun- try now than three years ago, there are 1,874,050 fower employed They will say this proves that the job ot owing less secure and that millions of idle al- ready fill the streets, and will agres with Hoover that the issue, for some, is not “a full dinner pail” but any kind of dinner pail at all. Republicans, if they reply, m: do so by saying increased unem- ployment is due, not to something inherent in their party, \qm to mod- ern industrialization wherein ma- chines tend to displace hand laboi ers. In this they would be using the same kind of logic as some demo- cratic newspapers which have said the enlarged comforts of American homies nowadays are attributable to the American system and not to the republican party, as Hoover inti- mated. Hoover, in citing 6,000,000 more telephones, 7 re eve 7,000,000 radio sets and 14,000,000 additio automobiles as evidences of prosperity under re- publican presidents, had access to correct commerce department fig- ures. The democrats, in their unem- ployment argnment, have no exa figures to go by. There was talk about an unemployment survey during the last congress, but no ap- propriation was mad u of labor statistics can t it said to Secretary when he reported to the state last March—that 1,874- 050 fewer men were employed then than three years before. There is no accurate figure for unemployment in 1925, and there is nothing better than a guess as to how many men and women took status as potential workers since then. To discover the actual unemploy- ed would require a house-to-house canvass, bureau experts said. They pointed out that a recent house-to- luse survey in Baltimore, Md., dis| closed only 1547 unemplo; whereas the state federation of la bor had estimated 75,000 out of | work in that city and the Baltimore Chamber of Commerce had guessed $3.000. The bureau’s eniployment index, tssued monthly, does not try to esti- mate unemployment. It merely is| based on payrolls of factories in b4 selected industries and shows the trend only in those industries. New Type of Man Being Evolved, Scientist Says Eliot Me., Aug. 14 (UP)—Science is creating an entirely new type of human being, professor E. A. Burtt of the University of Chicago told the Institute of World Unity here. He said that a distinctive pe of man would be developed by this scientific age, just as a distinctive Ml type was developed by ancient Greece of medieval Europe. “Already we see the beginning of this new human race in the changed attitudes of the younger generation toward religion, art, philosophy, morals and all .other social values,” he declared. “It is futile to stem this tide of change, which works its influence without distinction of race, class or creed. ™ Virtually nothing will be salvaged from the previous beliefs in religion or philosophy. in Professor Burtt's opinion. Runs Do“n Two Children, Autoist Under Arrest Westport. Aug. 14 (UP)—William Fassett, 16, son of Mrs. Kavah Deo Griffin, Westport Mystic, will be ar- raigned here tomorrow on a charge of driving without a license after running down two children here yes- terday. Sitting in a driveway eating ice eream cones, Josephine and Joseph Rivituso. aged five and seven re- spectively, were struck by Fassett's automobile.
