coolidge DRIVE
GAINING STRENGTH
Next Few Days Will See Added
Campaign Work

Washington, April Is {UP)-The
movement to crystallize republican
sentiment for the denomination Of
President Coolidge well in advance
Of the convention next year. will
take decided turn into the open
over the coming weekend.
Senator Tess OF Ohio. one Of the
chief engineers OF the movement,
will issue a statement tomorrow de-
claring again for the denomination
OF Coolidge and in it will answer OBJ
jections on the third term" score.
This statement will be put forth as
a "feeler." and coming from Fess
will bear peculiarly official tinge.
Fess has taken a most active part
in trying to head off the boom OF
former Governor Lowden OF Illinois
by formulating a compromise farm
relief program. The plan is to have
western farm republicans bring this
program forward. with the admin
istraton giving its acquiescence.
Meanwhile. Mr.. Coolidge is saying
nothing publicly and. according to
all who vis, him, is saying nothing
privately, merely listening to those
friends who advocate another term
The aim of his friends is to Gre
ate, ii possible. an avalanche Of sen
timent among the rank and file OF
the party, so that no other candi-
date will have a look-In. and to
make the 1928 convention such an
other mere formality as that in
1924.
The reaction in the next few
months to such feelers as the Tess
pronounccment and such active eff
forts as the compromise farm re-
lief program will show how the
wind blows. Other supposed cam
didates FOR the nomination. except
Lowden and Senator Borah OF Ida

test of the soviet consul general over
the picketing OF the soviat consulate

that a consular officer does not en-
Joy the immunity that the soviet
consul general claims"

Sentences ranging from, six 10 ten

LESS NON-EMPLO LOYMENT.
Manufactures Increase Demand for
Labor in February.

An increase of Is per cent IN en-
ployment in manufacturing industries
was noted in February, while pay
roll totals increased 6.1 per cent. the
Labor Department announced today.
The increases, the department said,
more than overcome the moderately
large decreases in both items which
occurred in January. due to taking of
inventories and repairs, and also the
small decrease in employment noted in
December.
February employment. the depart
ment said. was at higher level than
at any time since November and pay
roll totals were considerably higher
than at any time since October. The
upward trend had not yet reached the
level of February, 1925, when both
volume and payroll to-
tails were higher than at present.
The February report is based on re-
turns from 1929 establishments In
81 of the leading manufacturing In
dustries, having during the month
3, ,009,9S2 employees. whose combined
earnings in one week were $S1 ,067,4SO.
