BULLDOGS TO PLAY BASKETBALL TEAM
 AT GADSDEN TODAY
BY HARWELL ALLEN

The Howard college cage five leaves today for Gadsden, where they will attempt to start winning streak by defeating the Y. M. c. A.. of that town. The Bulldogs may do this too, for they have somewhat shaken their lineup these days.
 At present, Shorty" Webb, of whom no one knew anything a week ago, is sure to make the trip on account of the classy way in which he has been put ting the sphere into the basket for the past two weeks. The fight for the other forward position is now be- tween Bill Wright and Robinson and at this time it is hard to tell just which of these two boys will be se- lected as a running mate for Webb. The report is that Blackwelder, on &C., count of his managerical duties and his studies, has quit basketball for the remainder of this season, but, of course, there is always a chance of him coming back into the fold as he just naturally loves the game. A lit- tie persuasion may get him back on the team just any time. If he does not ehAnge his mind in the next few days, the Hol rdites are certainly losing a good man, for Blackwelder is not only fast, but he is always there when it comes to putting the ball into the goal.
 MacCullough, who has been out of the game for few days on account or minor operation, is now back and 1t IS very probable that he will be right there with the old shooting abil- ity tonight and continue to lead in the scoring for the Bulldogs. Captain AL 1ord is sure to be present at one of the guards, for it takes a broad im- agination to imagine the team doing without him. Dan Gaylord will nroh, ably be at sticking guard for, SO far Dan has been playing good basketball and 1t looks like he might continue to do so for the remainder of the sea son. ". K. Newman or Hurley Knight Will go along as the sub guard.
 After what happened in Jacksonville le Is not safe to predict that the Bull- dogs will win but it Is a sure fhinr that they will hold the Gadsden five "a small score v

Anderson at forward promises to be one of the highest prep point scorers in this section of the sunny scuth. He has collected 20 tallies in the two en- counters that he has mixed matters in and, at that has not played an entire game. Capt. "Nigger" I.lwley, long, lean and lanky center. follows close on Tommy's heels, having looped the loops for 24 digits. Stubbs. the other for ward. Is not far in the rear with IS counters.

 DEMANDS ACTION
Ask Government to Remedy Plight Brought About By
 Growing Unemployment
By Associated Press

London, January 27.-British organ ized labor at the national conference of the labor party and the trades union action on the part of the government to remedy the plight brought about by the steadily growing unemployment in the country. indorsed a policy which its authors assert will permanently re- move the cause of the present indus trial depression and adjourned until February 23 in order to give the labor members of Parliament an oppoi tunity to press forth the desired remedial steps. fs
 "IG we cannot achieve what this pro- sramrne suggests by eo1stft titional means we will adopt some means of an extra a-constitutlonal character" de- clared Robert Williams, leader of the transport workers, in supporting the resolution.
 The conference was characterised by the Daily Herald, the labor organ, this morning as either the most moment ous or the most futile in labor's his tory" But it was productive of little of a sensational nature It reached the culmination of committee meetings held during the recent weeks of the workers, at which a common policy regarding unemployment and related issues was formulated.
 General dissatisfaction with the gov ernment's proposed remedies was un- mistakably reflected by the delegates, who. however, seemed to differ on the most effective means of moving the government to the desired ac.ion.
 When MT. Williams and other speak CTS brandished the general strike weapon as one the workers would eventually have to resort to in order to accomplish the aims of the confer ence, there was applause. But when a moment later the railway men's leader, J. H. Thomas, counsel;ed moder- ation, urging that Parliament was the only authority which could give effect to the workers presentations, there was also applause, and it was difficult to determine which section was the . dominating ono

HARDING GUEST OF
 PALM BEACH COLONY
Boards Boat Late in Evening for Last Lap of Journey
 to Miami
By Associated Press

Palm Beach, Fla, January 2I.- President-elect Harding paid short visit to the fashionable~colony at Palm Beach today on his vacation trip along the coast of Florida.
 Changing his plans at the last moment, the President spent sew eral hours ashore here. and did not board his houseboat Victoria until late in the evening for the last lap of his- southward journey to Miami. The Vic toria does not run at night, but will leave early tomorrow morning and is expected to reach Miami Saturday morning.
 Eluding crowd that gathered at the docks of the winter resort hotels here, Mir. Harding went ashore early in the afternoon at the cottage of Joseph Ritter, a friend of Henry F. Fletcher. who is member of the Victoria's va cation party After a private luncheon there he played IS holes of golf at the country club and afterward was a guest at dinner at the Everglades club, which is part of the Palm Beach winter colony
 Plans for an official reception to the President were abandoned when his personal representatives told offi- cials of the reception committee that he wanted no formalities to attend his visit here and during most of the day he managed to escape the crowds which gathered along the waterfront.
 A committee from Miami whose members included Frank B. Shuts of the Miami Herald and former Governor Durbin of Indiana, conferred with MT. Harding regarding plans for a formal reception at Miami, and were told he would prefer to carry out his vacation programme without devoting attention to popular demonstrations in his honor. It is now expected that the Miami re- ception will be entirely informal and that the President-elect will spend sew eral days after his departure from that city fishing among the Keys to A+

Daily Financial Gossip
By HOLLAND

\ New York, January 27.-(Special) )--
 During and soon after tSe holidays
 improvement in the securities market
 and in many industrial and mercantile lines was observed. It was slight but it seemed to indicate that there was Justification for the prediction that
 after the first of the year the turn of the tide would be noticed. Then there
 came at least in the securities market a little reaction, and this caused the lapprencnsion that the holiday improve ment was no more than 8 momentary spurt and that depression is likely to continue for some time.
 Those, however, who are competent observers and are of long experience, say that there are likely to be from this time on reactions less and less frequent, and this is as it should be. Some have feared lest improvement would be too rapid. The safer way is for gradual gains and these are al- ways accompanied by occasional reac- tions, until at last these momentary depressions cease and steady improve ment, slow it is true. but certain is under way.
 For a few days attention has been called by those who are qualified to speak of the importance of maintain ing and increasing our foreign trade in the year 1921, and especially of gaining large satisfactory trade rela- tions with Germany. Good authori- ties. of whom Thomas W. Lamont and Bernard Baruch and others are types. now venture to say that possibly the
 most important of the matters that re- quire immediate attention to the end that we may gain large foreign trade, is the definite fixing of the indemnity which Germany will be required by the allies to pay. As the United States seeks no indemnity from Germany, 1t might be inferred that our attitude towards this problem should be one of comparative indifference. But that is
 not the view which the ablest author ities take. The world and especially
 the nations which were our allies dur ing the war are looking earnestly to-
 ward the United States for financial
 aid. There Is no doubt about our abil- ity to furnish financial aid of this kind
 from time to time, until the necessity for it has passed away But the ques- tion is, how are our allies to be put in position to liquidate not only existing debts, but those which may hereafter
 be incurred. If Germany knows what
 the precise indemnity is which the al-
 lies will demand, and if that indemnity
 is not excessive and beyond Germany $ ability to meet, then through the pay
 ment of these indemnities our former allies which are now and hereafter arc
 to be debtors to the United States, will
 be the better fortified to meet their obligations.
 GIVING CREDITS TO GERMANY
 One of the best authorities has re-
 gently stated that if Germany can ob-
 tain credit in sufficient amount com
 pietely to revive her industries and
 thus enable her to gain world trade,
 the result would be the stimulating of
 all industry upon the European conti-
 nent. In that way. the nations would
 increase their earning power, and if
