Special Despatch to THE New YORK HERALD
New York Herald Bureau,
Washington. ID. c.. Sept. go.
a new air of hopefulness that pros
perfty Is just around the corner per-
meated the unemployment conference
tonight. 1t came from realization
that conditions are not nearly so bad
as had been supposed. Secretary
Hoover expressed the unanimous view
when he declared that the conference,
after four days deliberations had
PASSED the experimental stage and
could be regarded as a success.
Il came to light that jobs must be
found for 100000 wage earners be-
fore employment conditions are re-
stored to normal. The delegates had
supposed that jobs would have to be
found for nearly twice that number.
That figure developed from an
nouncement by the committee on un-
employment statistics that unemploy-
ment in the United States at this time
Is not less than 100000 nor more
than 100000. This is sharp reduc-
ton from the estimates made six
weeks ago by the Department of
Labor in response to Senate resolu-
tion, when 1t was held that about
5,e50,000 wage earners had been dis
placed.
100000 Idle mt All Times.
Even In normal prosperous times
there is unemployment due to the natural
turnover of labor, illness of workers and
the like. This amounts. 1t Is estimated.
to not less than 100000 as an average.
On this basis it is figured that normal
conditions will be restored If provision
Is made for not less than 100000 and
not more than 2,500.000 to go back to
work.
That the unemployment conference by
fits constructive measures will be able
TO stimulate industry and public work
TO an extent where 100000 wage
earners can be put back on payrols is
the firm belief OF those participating In
the sessions.
The most spectacular recovery Is
anticipated through the action of the
committee on emergency measures by
calling on manufacturers. wholesalers
and retailers to enter a vigorous price
Slashing policy so that confidence may
be rcestablshed In the minds of the
buying public. The scheme, which con-
templates the fixing of prices on
present day replacement basis, won the
approval OF the manufacturers commit
tee. A resolution by them will be re-
ferred to the conference tomorrow for
consideration. If the conference ap-

According to all Indications, the big
demand by home builders for several
years to come will be for small homes.
Thousands of families, in an effort to
get away from the exorbitant rents of
the apartments in the cities, will build
homes of their own, and because of
the cost and their limited means, these
homes will necessarily be small. But
they will be as complete and just as
modern as any pretentious home on an
exclusive boulevard. The building art
has been developed to the point where
the small home can supply the same
comforts and conyeniences that the
larger and more expensive one has
heretofore had alone.
