ATLANTIC CITY. N. j., July 12.-No
political party and no presidential can
didate will be endorsed by the Executive
Council of the American Federation of
Labor, which opened its To-day Summer
session hsre today.
The political situation will be the big
business of the session. over which
President William Green will preside,
but there will be no partisan indorse-
ment issued and no afrliation made.
The federation, however, will draw up
a comparison of party platforms and
urge labor voters generally to favor the
platform that appears to offer labor the
most hope.
May Urge Federal Relief.
1t is probable pronouncement will
be made relative to relief legislation and
Congress will, in that event, be urged
to lay aside partisan considerations and
speed up Unemployment relief The
federation is deeply interested in the

President Hoover and Speaker Garner

The federation has observed closely
the bonus army in Washington and may
have something to say on that score.
30-hour Week Proposed.
Steps for stimulating a reduction in
working time per day and per week are
expected to be considered. 1t Is known
that National campaign for 30-hour

Only in one presidential campaign

voted, through the executive council.
to confer Endorsement When Robert
M. La Toilette headed third ticket in
1924, his candidacy was indorsed. 1t i'm
mediately became clear that no such ac-
tion would be taken again, unless and
until the entire political policy Of the
American Federation of Labor under
goes change.
Affiliated National and International
Unions are free to chart their own
course and some of these probably will

OWEN D. YOUNG
MAY HEAD R. F. c.
Hoover Said to Favor His
Selection Under New
Set-up of Agency.
BY G. GOULD LINCOLN.

President Hoover's recommendation
to Congress that the board of directors
of the Reconstruction Finance Corpora
tion be composed of eight members,
four Republican and four Democrats,
may lead, 1t was said today. to the Sc
lection of Owen D. Young as president
Of the corporation If the services of
Mr.. Young cannot be obtained. it was
said. Wilson W. Mills. president of the
Detroit Bankers Co., may be selected.
The President, in special message
to Congress read in the Senate yester-
day, recommended that the act creating
the Reconstruction Corporation be
amended SO as to eliminate from men,
bership in the board OF Directors Eugene
Meyer, governor of the Federal Reserve
Board, and Paul Bestor, farm loan COM
missioner. on the ground these officials
already have as much work as they
san 00eUutside of the corporation.
The act creating the Reconstruction
Corporation provides for board of di-
rectors composed of seven members,
three ex-offlcio. who are the Secretary
or Undersecretary of the Treasury, the
governor of the Federal Reserve Board
and the farm loan commissioner. 1t
also was specified that not more than
four members of one political party
could be members of the board.
The President now recommends that
the board be strictly bipartisan. with
four Democrats and four Republicans.
He would leave as member OF the
board the Secretary of the Treasury
or the Undersecretary of the Treasury.
As a matter OF fact, the Undersecretary
of the Treasury, Arthur A. Ballantine,
has been acting as a member of the
board and could continue to do so un-
der the new set-up proposed by the
President.
Gen. Charles G. Dawes not long ago
resigned as head of the Reconstruc-
ton Corporation. giving as his reason
the necessity Of attending to his own
business in Chicago.
1t was said at the Capitol today that
the President would like very much
to have Owen D. Young serve in a
similar capacity provided Mr.. Young
can be prevailed upon to accept ap-
pointment
Mills, tie Detroit financier, also
was mentioned in the gossip at the
Capitol as a likely selection to head
the Reconstruction Corporation. Mr..
Young is a Democrat and Mr.. Mills a
Republican.

The name of the woman in this case

rendered to Representative William H.
Sutphin of New Jersey. who identified
the married woman merely as "the wife
of an enlisted man of the Army or

This clause provides that In any re-
duction Of personnel. married persons
employed in the class to be reduced,

This provision has raised a Storm
of protest and many organizations
charged discrimination against married
women. 1t was even suggested that, to
save their jobs, some married women
would have to resort to temporary d.
vorce and some who were contemplate
ing marriage would have to postpone it.

Northern Peruvian City Is Recap

bardment.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
LIMA, Peru, July 12.-Peruvian fed
eral troops were in possession of the i'm
rortant Northern city of Trujillo again
today and Red Cross forces were organ
izing to clear away the devastation left
by one of the bitterest battles in the
history of Peruvian revolts.
The city was re-occupied yesterday
after the federal troops launched a
fierce attack against the Communist
rebels by land, sea and air.
Persons arriving by airplane from
there last night said Trujillo was sad
spectacle. The streets, they said, were
filled with bodies while some of the
rebels still hiding in private houses were
keeping up a scattering fire on the fed
eral troops entering the town.
The city was taken, the government
said, after the cruiser Grau had shelled
the rebel positions from the coast. Two
airplanes then flew over the city and
the rebels signalled they would surren-
der. When the plane landed, however.
they were fired upon.

OUST|NG Of SH0USE
REPORTED PLANNED
Roosevelt and Farley Confer
ring on New Democratic
Organization.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, July 12.-It appeared to
be not at all certain today whether the
post of chairman of the National Ex-
ecutive Committee, created for Jouett
Shouse, would be continued under the
new administration of the affairs OF the
Democratic National Party.
Reports that Shouse's position would
be vacated and eliminated were neither
confirmed nor denied at the headquar-
ters of Gov. Franklin D. Roosevelt, the
Democratic presidential candidate.
It was announced the new organiza-
ton, now being worked out by the Gov
ernor and James A. Farley. national
chairman, at conferences during the
Yachting trip up the coast to New Eng
land. would not be given out until their
return.
Various candidates fer Shouse's place
have been mentioned, among them
Arthur Mullen Of Nebraska, who was
the Roosevelt floor manager in Chlcago.
Mullen. who spent the week end with
Gov. Roosevelt in Albany and Hyde
PARK. was understood to be on his way
home.
The only announcement made con-
cerning the new organization so far Is
that Charles Nicholson. who handled
publicity for the headquarters estab-
lished by Shouse in Washington, will
continue in the same capacity with the
new management.
It is understood control Of the Ma
tional Committee and the campaign
plans will center in New York, with
Farley actively in charge, and that the
Roosevelt campaign will be run on sim
pier and less expensive lines than that
of Alfred E. Smith four years ago.
Shouse was made chairman OF the
National Executive Committee in the
Spring of 1929 At the time his ap-
pointment was understood to have been
made with the idea of trying to heal the
breach between the wet Democrats OF
the East and the Southern drys.
In a speech on March 2, Shouse said
the headquarters in Washington had
cost $4,000 a month or more for the
last three years, and John ]. Raskob
had advanced "every penny" Of the
money.
A report filed with the clerk Of the
House June stated the National Com
mittee still owed Raskob $120,250. A
short time previously he had wiped of
the slate 100000 owed him and had
thus converted into an outright gift a
100000 pledge which was to have been
paid on completion Of the victory drive.

CHAMBERLAIN, 8. Oak. July IL.
-Grasshoppers in this vicinity are
being wiped out as they came-by the
millions.
The insect plague which last year
was accounted the worst infestation in
years is disappearing before a strange
malady. Whether it is an unrecog-
rized disease or from the natural para
sites of the 'hoppers themselves has not
been determined.
But farmers from a wide area are
coming to the farm of George Spreckels
where the phenomenon was first noted
to gather dead insects and scatter them
over their own fields in an attempt to
spread the destruction.
Buffalo and Herould counties have
benefited extensively from this dis
seminal ton. And are the farmers

sion-Bonus Seekers Are Not
Deferred by Warnings.

Plans Of the California division OF
the bonus army to camp out on the
| Capitol grounds tonight suffered a set
back this afternoon when they were
| forced to divest themselves of their
| camp kits and bedding rolls as they
started to enter the Capitol grounds.
The vanguard of the marchers, led
by Roy w: Robertson, insurgent leader
OF the Californians, had started up the
roadway at the foot of Capitol Hill
when Chief of Police Pelham D. Glass

cycle and halted the procession with
an edict from Vice President Curtis.

equipment into the grounds, Comdr.
Robertson finally agreed to Glassford's
proposal that the equipment be de-
posted in a District truck and held
under guard pending further consid-
Grafton by the men of plans for the

Robertson asked Glassford if there
would be any objection to the men
being supplied with blankets in the
! case Of cold weather or rain tonight,
or on subsequent nights, and the police
chief indicated this would be taboo
also. The marchers were not swerved
in their decision to sleep at the Capitol
this evening. after presenting to the
Senate and House copies Of petition

veterans.
The California delegation, marching
to music Of a drum and bugle corps,

At 10 O'Clock this morning not more
than 10 bonus men were in the Admins

the pier staring out over the water
A little distance away John An
derson and Marks mother stood
talking together. Sondra had
wandered ~restlessly away from
them finding it almost impossible
to listen any more to Mrs. Merri-
mans eternal questioning.
What time is it now? Dc
you think the boat will be late?'
She was a small, spare woman,
as much unlike Mark as it is pos
sible for mother and son to be.
She knew all about Sondras'
marriage - everybody knew = Il
Sondra it had been like writing
"The End" on the last page of a
story which she had only just dis
covered what the ending was to
be.
She had not seen Anderson since
the evening he left her at the cot
tage till this morning when he had
motored her up with Marks moth
err to meet the boat.
1t had seemed a queer sort of
journey-the three of them united
by such strange ties-divided by
emotions even more strange.
Sondra knew that Mrs. Merri-
man disliked her and disapproved
of her; but it did not seem to mat,
ter-nothing mattered.
Even the fact of Anderson's
presence had hardly hurt her-he
seemed somehow so far removed,
He was kind. attentive-courte
Gus, but there was something gone
from his manner; she had felt all
the time as if he were stretching
out an arm to keep her away from
him.
Presently he came across to her
"The boat won't be in for an
hour yet Sondra. Well go and
get something to eat. You must
be hungry"
They had left the shore almost
at daybreak; Mrs. Merriman who
had stayed over night with Son.
dra had insisted on everyone's be
ing ready at an entirely unneces-
sary hour.
"Pm not hungry" Sondra said
in answer to Anderson's sugges-
