APPRAISERS COURT is
QUARTER CENTURY OLD

Washington, Aug 2-The Board of
United States General Appraisers is
today celebrating it's 25th birthday. In
the quarter century of its existence it
has received more than million pro.
tests from importers against duty and
value exactions by collectors. Judge
Henderson M. Somerville is the only
member of the original board now
serving. Although there have been
four revisions of the tariff act since
1890, the principal features of the
original law have all been retained.
The board now has all the powers
possessed by the federal circuit
courts. There are nine members, five
OF whom are Democrats and four Re-
publicans.

CHARGES
WIFE "ABUSED" HIM

Salem, Mass, Aug. 2-Over 100 wit.
nesses are expected to be called in
the divorce action of Charles S. Eat
on, millionaire Boston restaurant
owner, against his wife, pretty Pas
adena woman, when the case comes
up today in the divorce court here.
Eaton charges that his wife pulled
him downstairs, made him sleep on
the porch of their mansion at Pasa-
dena, nagged him before the servants,
and claims his health and life were in
danger until he left her last year.
Eaton is the owner of Thompson's
Spa, one of the famous eating places
of the east. He met his wife, who
was then Mrs. Ella F. Bartlett, at
Pasadena, where he had gone for his
health. The couple were married in
1909, went to Europe and Egypt, and
built mansion in Pasadena. Mrs.
Eaton will contest the divorce action,
claiming that she has not been abus-
i've to her husband, but was merely
locking after his welfare.

NATIONAL CONFERENCE
ON LABOR

San Francisco, Aug. 2-Questions
OF unemployment, the distribution of
labor, federal control of employment
offices and the relation of the indus
trial conditions to immigration are
among the topics to be discussed by
prominent men at the National Con-
ference on Labor, which opened here
today. Secretary Wilson of the de-
partment of labor has brought to-
gether for the conference representa-
tives Of many state and city govern
ments, prominent labor men and Soc
iologists, as well as his experts from
Washington. The main discussion
will center on the federal employment
bureau which was recently launched
by the department of labor. 1t is
hoped to adopt system of co-opera-
tion between the state bureaus and
the department of labor, to prevent
duplication in the work and to provide
for efficiency and uniformity in hand
ling the distribution of labor.
The establishment Of federal fund
to advance transportation to the un.
| employed with assurances that it be
returned when work is secured, is
recommended by many of the investi
| gators. 1t is pointed out that the so.
luton of the unemployment problem
does not end with Offering jobs; there
| must be some way found to bring the
man to his new work.
