STATES Held
RESPONSIBLE
BY PRESIDENT

WASHINGTON. Aug. 20.-tPy-
Pres. Hoover scanned the field OF
the country's leadership today in
search of men and women to as
sist Walter S. Clifford. president of
the American Telephone and Tele-
graph company, in q nationwide
organization Of unemployment re-
lief.
In announcing late yesterday
that Clifford would mobilize and
direct the relief army the chief
executive said the New Yorker
would be given a national advisory
committee to serve as his staff.
That committee has been partly
selected and its personnel Will be
announced soon by Mr.. Hoover. 1t
will be divided into regional groups.
In requesting Clifford to assume
the relief responsibility Pres. Hoo
yer assured him that "the whole
force OF the administration" would
be at his disposal.
Il am asking you TO do this"
the president wrote, because OF
my long acquaintance with work
you have done in similar fields
and it is my desire that you should
use your own judgment as to the
type of organization you set up
and its methods OF work"
Clifford is president of the Char
ity Organization Society OF New
York and has been in close touch
with the unemployment situation
through the statistical organization
OF his company. He has conferred
with Pres. Hoover on two occasions
within the past month.
Headquarters for the new or
ganization will be established in
Washington. The presidents emer-
gency unemployment committee.
OF which Col. Arthur Woods was
chairman, will be merged with II.
Woods, the president said, had
returned ito his other responsible
tiles after volunteering his serv-
ices with an understanding that
he would have to retire this autumn.
Mr.. Hoover characterized his
Craftsmanship as splendid leader
ship"
The American Association Of
public welfare officials has present.
ed to the emergency committee an
outline OF the fundamental prin-
ciplesr for relief during the com
ing winter.
1t declared the major responsible
itv for relief was on the local com
munity but called attention TO us
opinion that there are some COM
munities where financial condi-
tions are so acute 1t may be impos-
sible to provide sufficient funds"
The president has maintained a
position throughout the discussion
or unemployment that the primary
responsibility for relief lies with
the state. county and community
and the federal government Should
act only in an advisory capacity.
The Labor department state
ment on July emp iyment showed
a decrease of employment OF ? per
cent in Is industrial groups during
the month and a payroll decrease
OF 49 per cent.

claims. stating a district Judge had
70 help largely on the integrity OF

House prosecutors claimed that By
the exercise Of reasonable diligence
Judge Price could have discovered
the alleged exorbitance Of the ac-
counts.
Prices attorneys included Dan
Mody, former governor; r. L. Bats

Although forecasting basketball
championships is a hazardous pas
time and the Big Ten race is tradi-
tionally uncertain, there has has
been general rush to install North
western in the favorite's seat.
Have Four Vets
While rival schools are depending
largely upon green material, North
western has team composed of
four veterans and the sophomore
star, Joe Reiff. A schedule advan-
tage which does not require them to
meet Purdue, Indiana or Wisconsin,
gives the Evanston school an added
pull over the field.
Purdue has lost three of the vet
Grams which enabled it to go unde-
feated in the 1890 conference race,
but Coach Lambert has developed a
powerful club and will be a factor
in the race.
Wisconsin and Illinois, tonight's
lid-tilters, are unknown quantities.
Wisconsin's material is reputed be-
low par, but DR.. Walter MeanWell's
coaching wizardry assures the Badg-
ers of respect throughout the race.
Illinois is regarded as the most like
ly dark horse of the campaign. The
Illini have shown strength both at
defense and offense and may be a
title contender if Coach Ruby can
keep them keyed for victory.
Buckeyes Improved
Indiana, situated in the strong
hold of high school basketball, al
ways has good material and the
HooSiers are certain to be an i'm
portant contender for champion
ship honors. Deans team is rated
as Northwestern's chief title rival
Michigan has titular aspirations

more material and can not be rated

Grace Up
Heavy Champ Must Accept
or Refuse Sharkey
Bout Tuesday.
BIZ United Press

BIZ United Press
NEW YORK, Jan. 5.-Maybe-
and it's capital letter maybe, the
muddIed heavyweight boxing situa-
ton in this state and city will be
cleared up a trifle by Tuesday
The seven days of grace granted
Joe Jacobs, manager of Max
Schmeling. by the New York boxing
commission in which to answer
yes" or mo" to its demand that
the German agree at once to de-
fend his championship against Jack
Sharkey of Boston, end Tuesday.
The commission also meets Tuesday
and Jacobs will be there.
Unless Jacobs has sudden
change of heart, he will tell the
commissioners that he would much
prefer to wait until ninety days
before the date set for title match
and then sign to meet the out
standing contender.
It has been Jacobs contention all
along that though the commission
erS were all very smart men, indeed,
they were not quite smart enough
to peer into the future and name
the leading challenger four months
in advance. If Something's man
ager refuses to accept the Sharkey
bout, the commission has stated it
will declare the heavy title vacant.
