CURTIS ANNOUNCES HIS
HAT IS IN RING AGAIN
FOR VICE-PRESIDENCY
KanSan Will Not Seek Old
Seat in U. S. Senate, He
Tells Press; Move Is Seen
as Wise Step.
BIZ United Press

By United Press
WASHINGTON, Nov. 2o.-Vice-
President Charles Curtis announced
today that he will seek renomina-
ton to the vice-presidency.
Curtis said he, had decided not to
be a candidate for senator from
Kansas, a matter he has had under
consideration for many months.
His three-paragraph statement
issued from his Office concluded
with the statement:
After careful consideration I
have decided not to be candidate
for the United States senate from
Kansas in 1882, and further, that if
the next Republican national con-
vention dominates me for Vice
President, / shall accept"
Arrives From Chicago
There has been presented for
my decision the question whether l
shall be a candidate for United
States senator from Kansas in 1882
and, if not, whether I shall accept
another nomination for Vice-Pres-
ident in the event of its being
rendered to me- the remainder OF
the statement said.
Many reasons have been assigned
by my friends to support either
course I pursue
The statement was brought from
the vice-president's private office
by his secretary, Miss Lola Williams
and distributed to newspaper men,
waiting in the outer Office. The
vice president had arrived here at
8:45 a. m. today from Chicago, &C
companied by his sister, Mrs. Dolly
Gam.
Receives Newspaper Men
After going to his home for few
moments, the Vice-President went
to his Office in the senate Office
building. He had prepared his brief
statement before he went to Chi
cago Friday.
Curtis later received newspaper
men, but refused to amplify his
statement. He was cheerful and
discussed the event of his weekend
trip to Chicago, during which he
delivered nonrolitical speech to
business men.
IT am an optimist, not pessimist,
you know" he said, laughing.
The announcement was taken by
most politicians as probably insur-
ing the denomination of Curtis.

The drop in revenue from income
taxes in the last fiscal year, which
amounted to approximately $550,000,-

the amount that will be received in
next Tuesdays payments. A year ago
the September income tax payments
amounted to $498,000,000 while this
year estiNates place the amount at
$228, 5000, 000, less.
While the September financing will
take care of the Governments needs
until December, the Treausry will be
required to raise additional money
then. On that date $500 600, 900 in
securities falls due and the income tax
payments for the last quarter of the
calendar year are expected to fall far
below that of December, 1880, when

l2-The unemployment problem is
making Grand Rapids safer and more
beautiful city for its residents, includ-
ing some 1000 men who are benefi-
Charles of a save self-respect" policy
toward the jobless.
Like the rest of the country, this city
of $4,000 people faced the problem
during the last two years of caring
for an abnormal number of unemployed
workers. 1t rejected the idea of a
dole. either from the public treasury
or from private charity, and chose in
stead to use the surplus labor to realize
some of the dreams of many years for
public improvements.
Forty projects altogether have been
undertaken. They include creation OF
a new park, widening streets, rebuild
ing sidewalks, making intersections
safer. putting in new sewers, painting
buildings. filling vacant lots, cleaning
I'D the river banks and park forestry
work.
Calamity Bonds" Issued.
These projects had been neglected
for years because the city lacked the
money for them. But money was found,
partly through issuance of $650,000 in
calamity bonds under ruling OF
the Michigan Supreme Court that I'M
employment is a public calamity, for
which emergency loans may be made.
The plan was put into effect in De-
cember, 1929, and back OF it was City
Manager George w. Welsh, who started
life as a newsboy He insisted the self
respect of the unemployed must be
saved.

which is redeemable only at the COM
munity provisions station, where food,
clothing and fuel is provided at low
prices.
Work on Halliday Basis.
The fuel comes from the municipal
woodpile, which is kept replenished by
one group of the 40-cents-an-hour
workers. They cut the wood from clSy
property which is being "beautif1ed.
When an unemployed man reports
to the city he is given physical exam
nation and other tests to determine
what he can do The applicants are
classified as to their experience ana
skill before they are assigned to varl-
GUS tasks. So far, only 3 per cent have
been found unable to do any work at
all. They have been given financial as
sistance.
No man works more than half OF each
day. Those with the most dependents
work six half days week. The num-
Der of half days decreases with the
number of dependents. No city worker
loses his status because he finds odd
Jobs when he is off duty. Rather, such
ambitious men are encouraged.
Men Have Own Garden Plot.
Economy is the watchword of those
in charge of the workers. One OF the
projects under way is the raZing. OF
structures to make way for municipal
auditorium. Hundreds of men have
been employed in scrap yard where
material from the RACED buildings Is
salyed for use elsewhere.
A 3O-acre tract of land was set aside
for the men to make gardens for them
selves.
OF those who have taken advantage
of what Grand Rapids offers the UNI

"They are fine men. They want moth
ing for nothing. Just Gods greatest
gift. independence"

II was the first city to use the system
Of putting the unemployed to work on
systematic basis.
Incidentally, of the $650.000 bonds
issued, 100000 already has been re-
