Graft EYieuCe Causes Sensation
 in Garrett Inquiry

Boston, April 5 (P-Bostons po- lice department today stood shaken to the depths with the latest devel- opments in the attorney generals investigation of Oliver E. Barrett, pensoned liquor raider.
 Garrett and two other officers faced charges by the former pro- prietor of the liquor selling Ritz hotel, now padlocked, of having re- cciyed regular monthly payments from him. Garrett. former leader of the Headquarters liquor and vice squad, was accused of having been paid first $50 and later s1o0 month- ly.
 Wilson Rumors Persist
 Rumors that Police Commission CT Herbert A. Wilson would resign persisted, despite his denial last night that he would give up the office.
 Senator Frank ". Osborne of Lynn, chairman of the legislative committee on municipal finance, was reported to be drafting a bill to substitute for a single police commissioner appointed by the gov crror, board of three.
 Attention was turned to Lieuten- ant Daniel Hines, also a member of the Headquarters squad, whose bank account was said yesterday by Spe- cial Assistant Attorney General Damon E. Hall to have exceeded that of Garrett. Early in the in vestigation accounts of over s120,- GOO in the names of the Garretts were revealed.
 Public hearings stand adjourned until Tuesday.
 | Sullivan Gives Evidence
 The charges of paying money were made by John F. Sullivan, white-haired and feeble proprietor of the Ritz, late in yesterdays hear ing after Police Commissioner Will son had spent day and half on the stand.
 Testifying under oath, Sullivan said that he was told by Garrett dur ing a raid that he would have "tc come across" Regular monthly pay. ments of $50 were begun, he said being made through Mrs. Lillian Hatch, who later became coat room concessionaire and also through Mrs Garrett. Two other officers, whose names he said were Timmins anG Herman, were paid s20 monthly an6 later the amounts given to Garret were raised to s10o each month, he continued.
 Room For Police
 A room was maintained in the hotel in which policemen could drink, the proprietor testified. anG he was always tipped off in advance of raids by Mrs. Garrett by tele- phone. He denied that he had ever paid money intended for Police Com. missioner Wilson or Superintendent Michael II. Crowley, as previousl. charged in testimony during thu hearing.

EUROPE TROUBLED
 BY UNEMPLOYMENT
5,000,000 Persons Out Of Work
 in Five Leading Nations

London, April (UP)-More than 5,oo0,OoO people in five major Euro pean countries were out of work at the end of 1929.
 They cost the governments of their countries-Great Britain, Germany, France, Austria and Italy-some- thing like s5oo,ooo,Ooo to maintain.
 II is difficult to estimate whether unemployment generally is increas- ing or decreasing. Comparing the figures for the last two years, un- employment in Germany and France has increased, in Austria and Italy it has decreased, and in Great Brit ain there has been practically no change, although slight tendency was shown.
 Great Britain and Germany are the chief sufferers from this prob- lem, while France alone can be said to have a normal condition of unemployment.
 Here are the statistics for each of these countries for the last two years.
 Great Britain and Northern Ireland
 There were 1,552.000 unemployed people in Great Britain and North crn Ireland on December 30, 1929, as compared with 1,565,000 on De- cember 3l, 1928. It is pointed out, however, that the total number of working people in 1929 was 1o.1o0,- 900, while in 1928 it was 11,SS0,000.
 Of the total number of unemploy- cd in 1929, 1,129,oo0 were men, S15,0o0 were women and the re- mainder boys and girls. In 1928 there were 1,113,0O0 unemployer men, 23G,ooo unemployed women and the remainder of the total was made up of boys and girls.
 During the financial year which ended March 31, 1929, Great Britain and Northern Ireland pent 2SS,652,- 12o dollars on these out-of-works, while already in the present fiscal year ending March 51, 1880, 179,- 350,00 dollars have been spent in unemployment benefits, generally and colloquially known as "the dole"
 It is estimated that the govern ment IS paying out something over S5, 100000 a week in dolcs which average around SC per head plus allowances for families.
 Certain authorities contend that this unemployment dole tends to increase unemployment and point to recent parliamentary legislation introduced by tho Labor govern mcnt as supporting this belief.
 The unemployment insurance act provides. subject to certain excep- tions, for the compulsory insurance against unemployment of substan- tially all employed persons. This

able either for 1928 or 1929, but according to an authority this re- lief does not in any way affect the f1uctuation of unemployment.
 France
 Unemployment in France is al most negligible. At the end of 1929 there were 12,7o9 out of work, including 7,791 men and A. SIS women. as compared with Ill., 7s5 unemployer at the end of 1928.
 Unemployed in France receive state relief, paid out from the Min istry of Labor's funds. There is no unemploym insurance scheme as in Great Britain, all though social insurance law along these lines is shortly to be brought into force.

APRIL FOOL PARTIES. HELD IN NEW YORK
Society Enjoys Pranks-Debu'
 tant@ Are Launched
BY ADELAIDE KERR

New York, April R-The social sophisticates, who love to be fool ed if the foolng is clever enough, had many a laugh at each others expense this week. The tricks they played at the April Fools Gaieties did much to brighten the drabness of Lent.
 And when they turned from rub Der matches and fake telegrams to more serious social business they kept the greater part of that pat tering along in a light strain.
 The party which MT. and Mrs. James Quirk gave at the Bucking- ham in honor of Mir. and Mrs Charles Norris Tuesday evening was devoted to April first frivolity. Ev- erybody was asked to come as some- body else, and nobody was intro duCed by his own name.
 MT. Norris appeared as Brigham Young. Mrs. Norris, who is known to the literary world as Kathleen Norris, arrived as Madame Elinor Glyn, whose exposition of "It' has caused many a debutante to eye her self wistfully in the mirror. Irwin Cobb varied the procedure by com ing as himself, while the hostess, who was known on the screen as Mae Allison, appeared as Mae West in Diamond Lil.'
 While the guests assembled fake radio-which proved to be sound less-was turned on. A colored or chestra struck up the preliminary strains for 8 broadcast and MT. Quirk and Ray Long as Amos n Andy' gave a fake broadcast of their dialogue behind a screen.
 At ten o'clock the guests went into the dining room, which was decked as a modern night club, and served themselves in cafeteria style. Then they sat down at the tables, covered with checked gingham table cloths-only to find themselves con- fronted by rubber rolls, matches and candy. Part of the food, however, proved to be real and the diners searched it out for themselves.
 Among the other guests who at tended the party were MT. and Mrs. Kent Cooper, Mir. and Mrs. Roy Howard, MT. and Mrs. Joseph Moore and Prince Geno Orsini.
 Much of the more serious social business this week was devoted to launching the social ships at next years debutantes, and even of rig ging the sails of those who will not make their bows for several seasons a matter which now requires some years of careful preparation.
 Mrs. Jorge Andre gave a dinner party on Tuesday evening at her Madison avenue apartment for her
