Unemployment Com's'n
Sets Forth Some of
Necessities
MINORITY MAY DISSENT
Lower Freights Would
Increase Volume of
Commerce
(By Associated Prcss.)

Washington, Oct. 7.-Practical
completion of a majority report on
permanent measures for the better
ment of business throughout the
country was effected today by the
manufacturers committee of the ma
tional conference on unemployment.
Whether a minority report will be
submitted OF the full corfneeecnRf
submitted to the conference when it
reassembles Tuseday was not dis
closed.
On the question of business read
justment majority of the commit
tee was understood to hold the view
that readjustment of wages and
prices downward was a necessary pre-
cedent to commercial readjustment
from which revival of the nations
industry could spring. In connection
with the readjustment process the
report was understood to favor lower
freight rates to permit of gretaer
flow of commerce.
Passage of the railway funding
bill for the financial relief of the car
riers now pending in congress, was
understood to be regarded by the re-
port as an important step in econo-
mic bettermen while the discontinue
ance of functions of the railroad
labor board which come in conflict
with the activities of the Interstate
Commerce Commission was regarded
favorably.
Legislation changing the Adamson
eight hour law was understood to be
suggested as means of more readi-
ly accomplishing industrial read
iustments. On the subject of taxa
ton the report was understood to
favor a program likening unneces-
sary burdens while at the same time
providing ample revenue for the
federal government.
Lack of unanimity upon various
features of the report was indicated
BY committee members who, how
ever, declined to discuss the report
until it was made public at the full
conference.

andclosing instances. States Attor-
neyFrank A. Wideman, and Assistant
States Attorney William A Hal
lows, Jr., sought to convince the jury
that Pope had used Rawlings, "a half
starved" boy, as Hallows expressed
it, to carry out the theatre robbery.
Several women who have frequented
the trial took up collection in the
court room for Rawlings in order that
he might have sine luxuries not en-
joyed in his Jail cell.
Throughout Hallows' remarks to-
day the grief of Mrs. F. ]. Hickman,
mother of the slain manager, was
plainly audible. The mother of the
defendant maintained her attitude of
composure, the attitude with which
she has absorbed apparently every
word at the trial. The defendants
calm demeanor was undisturbed even
when Attorney Hallowes made his
direct accusations.

SEARCHING FOR SLAYER
Suspect Not Captured,
Although Six Were
Arrested
(By Associated Press.J

Cpnyers, Ca, Oct. 7.-Active search
was begun late today for Joshua
Cresley, 1S year old negro, in con-
nection with the murder of Charles
E. ,Reagin, banker and plantation
owner, who disappeared last night
and whose body was found today in
a river near here. Cresley, who for
merly worked for the banker, had
since been arrested on a charge of
stealing from him.
Six other negroes, employees of
Reagin's farm or living nearby, were
taken into custody while the coro-
ner's inquest was in secret session,
but after that body adjourned until
Monday without verdict, it was in
dicated by officials that nothing had
yet developed. to. fasten the crime
upon any Of those hnder arrest.
Mr.. Reagin's automobile in which
he had just left his plantation after
a ride from his bank, was found last
night on the river bridge and after
a fruitless all night search a fisher
man at daybreak today found the
body tangled in his trot line a few
hundred yards below the bridge. The
skull was fractured from a blow on
the head and there was a long slash
across the front of the coat and vest
as though from a sharp knife. The
man was dead when thrown into the
water, physician said.
Officials believe robbery was the
motive of the murder.

New Jersey Growers to
Get 100000 From
Government
"SAP|RO" PLAN IS USED
Organizers Coming Into
Florida to Call On
Growers

Julius LANCER, promoter of the
various cooperative associations for
farmers on the Pacific and Allan
tic coasts is coming to Florida short
ly to encourage closer organization
here of growers, especially in the po-
tato line. He will go to Gainesville to
confer with the University Extension
authorities and lay his plan before
them. He will then come to Palatka
at the instance of the Chamber of
Commerce and confer with the potato
growers of this section.
Mr.. LANCER installs the "Sappiro"
system, which is described in a re-
cent article in the New York Times,
telling of the organization of the
potato growers along the eastern
shore" The article from the Times
is as follows:
Within the next week New Jersey
potato farmers who are organized on
a cooperative basis will take first
steps to arrange for $500,000 loan
for financing next years crop of New
Jersey potatoes. 1t is estimated that
this loan will place on basis of
commercial efficiency over 60 per
cent. of the potato growers of the
New Jersey district, or Central Pota-
to Belt, as it is called.
The organization primarily inter-
ested in the loan is the New Jersey
Potato Growers Association. This
cooperative marketing association
has membership of 600 farmers and
represents an acreage of 10000 in
the potato district composed of Mon
mouth, Middlesex and Mercer Coun-
ties. The Central Committee of the
association reports that the associa-
ton did a business of a little over
S3,O00,OO0 on the last crop. The Gen.
trail is composed of an alliance of two
locals, known as the Monmouth Coun-
ty Potato Growers Cooperative As
sociation, with headquarters at Free
hold, N. j., and the Giant Potato
Growers Association, at Hightown,
where the central office is also located.
In order to be enabled to avail it
self of the collective credit" system
Of borrowing, the potato growers are
now comforting on the various fnan-
cial, legal and economic advantages
of the "Sapiro Plan" of cooperative
marketing with Julius Langner, or
ganizer of the New Jersey Poultry
Producers Association, and many
other co-Operatives in the country.
Mr.. Langner gave out statement
yesterday from the office at 1872 West
Forty-second street, eastern headquar-
ters of the seventy-five co-operatives,
in which he said that the plan of f.
nancing the farmers which he had
presented to the New Jersey potato
growers will include the furnishing
