HOOVER MAY CALL
Jobs CONFERENCE
Expected to Summon Lead
ers for Discussion of
Five-Day Week.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
The administration is on record today
for a plan to give jobs to more people
by letting all work less and may pre-
sent the idea to business leaders in a
national conference shortly.
The likelihood that President Hoover
will call such a conference stands out
clearly as an aftermath of his talk yes
terday with a group of New Englanders
who presented work-shortening plan.
Gov. Winant of New Hampshire said:
I'VE made some progress in the meet
ing with the President" The New
Hampshire" plan would spread employ
ment through a f1ve-day week, shorter
work days or any other method found
advisable.
Other Parleys Promised.
1--WE have been assured that further
consideration is to be given this and
other means for spreading employment
and that there will be other conferences
and other discussions along this same
line" Winant said.
Administration leaders also are con-
templating even the four or three day
week, the siX-hour day, staggering OF
working hours and flexible work weeks
depending upon the volume Of business.
Application of these plans, they say,
while reducing incomes of employed
workers. would giver much-needed jobs
to others.
President Hoover in his recent nine
point rehabilitation program indicated
he favored a plan of this sort when he
said, II have under discussion with
various agencies the question of
movement to further spread existing
employment through reduction of work
hours.
Survey Completed.
He has available for study before
calling the conference a survey of
shorter employment hours made by
Secretaries Doak and Lamont and COW
ering 6,551 companies.
Doak predicted, after meeting the
New Englanders, who came to the Cap
ital to carry out plans advanced at
their recent economic conference. that
industry would adopt the shorter work
principle generally. He Endorsed this
trend.
He did not specifically approve of
the New Hampshire idea, but indicated
belief that acceptance of shorter week
could be expected in many industries
now even though a new national con-
ference were not held.

SMITH |NVADES
G.O,P.LA|R .

NEW YORK, Oct. 27 G.N.S0.
Former Gov. Alfred E. Smith, hav.
ing offered his 11-word proposal
for legalizing beer and ale, in-
vaded rock-ribbed Republican New
England today to castigate the
Hoover administration for mis-
management of the nations
finances.
Smith was in fine fettle as he
left Grand Central Terminal
aboard a special train carrying
him to Providence, where he
speaks this afternoon, and then
to Boston, where he speaks over a
nationwide radio hook-up at $3.50
o'clock tonight.
Smoking the inevitable cigar,
the former governor apparently
was unperturbed by the sensation
stirred up by his speech on bigotry
in politics Monday night in
Newark. He said:
"That speech stands by ITSELF,
Naturally, the Republicans
didn't like it. Naturally, the
Republican press roasted it.
But 1 didn't go to Newark to
please the Republicans. And re-
member, it's always the stuck
pig that squealS."
AS for Senator Borah's fiery de.
nunciation of the speech and his
claim that it was "the best speech
uot ,,oodo foY. Hoover - Smith had
this to say:
"Of course BOrah said that.
He is not for me or for ROOse-
welt, but I don't find fault with
BOrah. Don't you remember, in
1928, he went all over the West
tying me up to booze and beer?
Well, now that his own party is
for resubmissiOn, he is silent on
that subject"

Alfred E. Smith will make a brief
talk at Providence, r. l., when
he stops there this afternoon en-

liver his second major speech in
behalf of the Democratic national
ticket.
Reports that John W. Davis,
Democratic candidate for Presi-
dent in 1924, was allotted time
on a nationwide hook-up origin
ally intended for Smith at Buff
falo Saturday night were vigor-
ously denied today.
Davis will speak for the ma

Endorsement Of the State ticket.

Smith has been arranged for the
