Massachusetts Solved Unem-} ployment Problem by Plan- ning Ahead for Public Im- provements, Which Prom- ised Jobs for Jobless Men, By Roger Bachelder. “Massachusetts has not the serious Unemployment, situation which pre- vaiis in many States," declared Gov. Channing Cox, who is at the Biltmore on his way to the conference of Gov- ernors which will take place next week at Charleston, 8. C. “Last Jantary," he said, “before the present conditions began to assert themselves, we evolved a plan where- y municipalities should plan the pub- 9 improvements which vould be nec- ry within five or ten years, and eld these plans until unemployment ‘became general, When men were out of work the various improvements were to be begun and unemployment thereby reduced materially. “Shortly after the plan was ap- proved by the cities and towns of the State the crisis came, and we now have definite results to prove its) worth. Cities which needed schools, ! streets, sewers or other public works made surveys, placed the unemployed on the jobs and thereby relieved the situation, The State also hastened the building of new highways.” Gov. Cox declared that the new Btate Police, which was recently or- nized and patterned after the Now ‘ork and Pennsylvania constabulary, had already made great progress. “The men worked on highways last eummer,” he said, ‘and curbed speed- ing and reckless driving to a remark- able extent. The force of fifty men, which we hope will be soon increased in number, recently went into inten- sive military training for ten weeks. The men are now ready for active service of any kind, particularly in the rural districts, and the people of the State are already greatly pleased with their work.” Goy. Cox sald that the annual con- ference of Governors, which is at- tended by nearly all the chief State Executives, would this year discuss ural credits, income taxes, prison management ‘and interstate extradi- tion. Fach State which has tried an innovation, he declared, made a re- port of its progress to the others. went to the nations of the ‘low ex- Unusual interest is expected in the report of Kansas on the progress of its Industrial Court. oe GERMAN IMPORTS NEED NOT BE FEARED. “We need. not worry about the danger of German materials flooding our market,” said Lieut. Thomas C. Tamsey, formerly attached to the Mplomatic service in Turkey, who is at the Pennsylvania after a trip through Germany. “The Germans have to pay fabulous prices for raw materials hecause of the present d Pression of the mark,” he said. “'T do not believe that they can buy in foreign markets, manufacture and re- export at prices which will bother American manufacturers, In my opin- fon, the ‘made in Germany’ menace Is over for the pregent.”” “AS OTHERS SEE US.” “New York prices for apart- ments are comparatively low.” That was. the statement by H. J. Fletcher of De Land, Florida, who is now at the McAlpin, which nearly threw the reporter for a Toss. "Tf you think that vou are hard pressed, you should come to Florida.” he declared, ‘Tourists are rushing there in greater num- bers than at any time since the beginning of the war, Rents for cottages and houses are higher than ever before, and there are nlenty of tenants. He who thinks that New York rents are high should go down to Florida and try to et an apartment for the win- ter.” \ ae . WHY GO ABROAD? “If any one has the idea that sume- thing is wrong with this country, and that it is not a good place in which to live, he should take a jaunt which I have just made,” asserted E. W. Castle of San Francisco, who is at the Astor after an eight months’ trip through Europe. “If he follows my footsteps, he will come home cured. “Unrest exists in every country in Europe, and it can only be dispelled by co-operation. The Englishman knows that world conditions cannot be righted by England alone—that he must have the co-operation of this country, And England is in far better shape than any other European na- tion, The other countries are broke and unhappy. . “English people are not travelling as much in former times, and in spite of the American totirist trade, Switzerland, for instance, Is hard pressed. The stories about cheap travel in Europe are exaggerated. The American who travels in his own country, instead of going abroad, gots more value for his money than he would get if he took a steamer and change.’ " .
