PRESIDENT TO CALL
OUT OF WORK CONFAB
Will Meet in Washington Next
Month, Hoover Says.

Washington, Aug. 29,-PreSident
Harding will call Il national confer
pnce. representative of the whole cuun-
Try. To meet here next month to inquire
into the unemployment problem.
Announcement of the presidents in
tcnIion WAS made by Secretary H"oN-
er, who WAS asked to formulate plans
for the gathering. These, he said,
would he ready for the president With
in ten days.
The object of the conference. Mr..
Hoover said, will be to inquire into
The volume of needed employment, the
distribution of unemployment. To make
can properly be taken in co-ordinated
speeding up of employment by indus
tries and public bodies during the next
winter and, in addition, broad study
of economic measures desirable to
umeliOrate the unemployment situation
and give impulse to the recovery of
business and commerce to normal.
Many constructive suggestions have
been made To the department by en-
ployerS. governors of states and by
city officials.
While it has been determined to
keep the number at the conference as
small as possible, he said, SO that the
work may he done with expedition, it
is intended to invite representatives of
the greater groups of industries and
thought and the cooperation of nation
al organizations will be sought in their
selection.
"While the business situation is
steadily improving" Mr.. Hoover said,
some sections of the workers may
have exhausted their savings by the
coming winter, and they must be a
matter of extreme solicitude. 1t is
inconceivahle that America with its
SURPRISES in food and clothing, with
housing-though crowded-and with
an abundance of fuel could allow any
suffering amongst those of our own
peOule who desire tt work.

in the Columbia Theatre shortly after
midnight shook the entire business dis
trict.
The theatre was empty at the time,
not yet having reopened for the sea-
son. Several persons we're reported,
however, to have been injured by fly
ing glass. According to the police, the
explosion was due TO labor trouble.
The bomb had been placed at the
entrance to the stage door in an alley.
The force of the blast shattered the
neavy steel door and broke hundreds
of surrounding windows. The interior
of the theatre itself was not damaged.
The theatre is located in the heart
of the business district, Il half-block
from the city hall, and the sound of
the blast attracted thousands. spe-
cial detail of police was called to clear
the streets and aided firemen in keep
ing back the crowd.

a steel cylinder, ha Il contained black
powder Parts of the casing were
found imbedded in the walls Of sur
rounding buildings The damage tC

result of the explosion guard of po-
lice was placed about Columbia and

TO THE VOTERS OF (THIS)
DORCHESTER COUNTY.

Cambridge, Nd, Aug. 4, '21.
l hereby announce to the voters OF
this county that 1 am a candidate
for the nomination Of State Senator
for Dorchester County, and, ii,
nominated at Democratic Primaries
and elected at General Election, L
shall use my influence that L may
have, by virtue of the senatorship,
to reduce the burden of taxation
which is now Weighing so heavily On
the shoulders of the people OF the
State to abolish the many useless Of
fees which have been created as re-
wards for political services.
It would give me the greatest
pleasure of my life to know that L
had used the opportunities that were
afforded me to lessen the burden OF
the people of my State and abolishing
Judges pensions, by doing away
with The Conservation Commission
which is now costing the State near
ly 100000, each year, The State In
dustrial Accident Commission, whose
functions can all be exercised by
The Courts, but which is now cost
ing the State nearly $4,000 per
year, The Public Service Commission
now costing 100000 per year; the
office of Commissioner Of Motor We
hfcles, now costing over 100000,
per year and various other useless
commissions and expenses.
The Constitution of the State re-
quires that the seat Of the State
Government shall be at Annapolis,
and | believe that it is the duty of
the next General Assembly to see
that all the State offices that are now
in Baltimore, shall be removed back
to Annapolis, where the Constitution
says they shall be. l think the wis
dom of this will be easily seen when
one counts that the State is paying
annually, for rented Offices in Balti-
more City from 100000 to $780,
900 yearly.
If nominated and elected to tbs
State Senate, 1 shall oppose any leg
is1ation looking to the increase Of the
representation from Baltimore City.
l shall support and vote for any
measure that is necessary to put the
women voters of the State on a per-
feet equality with the men, in every
respect.
