_ IS' Beioves Prosperity Wou't Shake With Presidental Campeign Oct. 30 (—Presi- dent Coolidge holds that business conditions are remarkably stable and prospercus, and that the foun- dation for this prosperity is secure- ly established because it cannot be shaken by the presidential cam- paign now in progress. Both imports and exports have been represented to him as keeping up and business conditions general- ly as beng in a better state than a year ago. In view of this, Mr. Coolidge is confident that tax returns for the current year will be large enough to wipe out the $100,000,000 deficit Washington, which had beei estimated by next| June 30. The president is aware, however, that balancing the budget will be hampered by two or three extra items which will have to be includ- ed among the expenditures before the end of the current fiscal year. Among such items are the increased wages to mail carriers and further appropriations for Mississippi flood control. Should legislation be passed for the construction of Boulder Dam on the Colorado river this would Salewm, Mass, JFolice Trying to Check Up on Man Who First Ad- mitted Murder of Boy. Salem, Mass, Oct. 30 (P—Al- though two confessions by Carl Pangram, held in Washington, D. C., were sald to be false, City Marshal Donald Phalen and Police Captain Gideon Pelletier left for the Cape with two witnesses today for a final check on whether or not Panzram {is the man who killed 12 year old Henry McMahon near here in 1922. The two witnesses were Mrs. Ber- itha Luxton of Marblehead, and Mrs. | Theresa Parsons of Salem, believed {to be the last persons who saw the |boy alive a3 he was walking into a {woods with a man. Upon their identification will depend the course |of action of the Salem police in re- |gard to Panzram, the officials said {today.

Chinese Relief Has Many Appeals for Aid Shanghai, China, Oct. 30 P—The China international famine relief is being flooded with appe. famine stricken district 1y in Shansi, where, it is declared, “babies are being killed because there is rothing to feed them with and children are being sold for a mere song.” Thousands of persons are said to be living on the park and leaves of trees. In addition to Shansi the famine includes districts in Kwangm, Suiyan, Hupeh, Hunan and Honan. A magistrate of Yang Hsien in a letter estimates there are 200,000 famine sufferers, owing to the drought and the devastations of the “red spears,” a guerrilla organiza. tion. The situation in Shansi the magistrate declares is unprecedented children being sold openly in the market by parents eager for cash. In Hunan thousands are on the verge of starvation, due to banditry, communist uprisings, the red spears and drought. COMMISSION WORKS ON Lahore, British India, Oct. 30 (P —The authorities are leaving ny stone unturned to keep boycotters from hindering the work of the Simon commission which is to make a report on legislative reforms in India. When the commission arrived bere today it found the station guarded by police and a barbed wire fence. Several thousand hoyeotters carrving black flags and headed by T.ajpat Rai and other leaders press- ed against the barrer erying: “Simon go back.” A the cars carrying the commls. sion members left {he station, the police chareed (he crowd and some i the leaders suffered minor injur- cs. tration, if the spirit of the law is to | guide the action of carriers and em- ployes. | President Coolidge was said to feel hopeful that the recommenda- tions made by the emergency board would form a base for settling the controversy between the western | |roads and their conductors and trainmen, It is his understanding that the findings were largely idel tical with terms reached at a Wash- ington conference between the roads and the representatives of the | brotherhood. This was said to be particularly true of the wage in- crease rates proffered. Regarding | suggestions as to changes in work- |ing rules the president fecls that |these matters will get reasonable consideration from all of the par- ties. i Further Evidence is Presented To- day in Murder Casc Against Louis N.

The speaker sald that about 30.- 000,000 people have come te these shores since the earliest days. The o | federal census of 1930 listed 14.- 000,000 foreign born in the United States and since then about 3.500,- 000 immigrants have arrived. These people contribute te the ecenomic financial and cultural development of the nation, it is our duty to en- courage their effective assimilation into our social body, he declared. Applied to New Britaln New Britain had a population of 59,316 in 1920, Mr. Kley continued. According to the 1920 census 21,230 of the population were foreign born, over 12,000 non-citizens and ¢,22¢ adult illiterates. The efforts of the educational agencies of New Rritain are reducing these figures, he added. A new federal census is to be taken in 1930, and Mr. Kley ex- pressed the hope that the literacy and citizenship status of New Britain in the new record would show & marked improvement., He suggested that the Lions club sponsor a move- ment to encourage foreign-born residents to attend English classes, study American government and in- stitutions, and become citizens, Mr. Kley closed his address with |a graphic impression of Europe, using a map for {llustration.
