allurements have been broadcast to the world on any such scale. This years campaign as planned will greatly exceed in magnitude and scope the first annual campaign launched by the council in 1882.
 An impressive list of publica- tions is carrying the councils New England advertising. These include National Geographic Magazine, Lit erary Digest, Time, Home and Field, Atlantic Monthly, American Magazine, Saturday Evening Post, National Sportsman, The New Yorker, House and Garden, Good Housekeeping, Sportsman, and Harper's Bazaar.
 This years campaign is being doubled in intensity and scope for two reasons, the council statement said to-day.
 The first is the increased import ance to New England of recre- atlonal income, In view of the con- tinued depression in industrial and farm income.
 The second is the increased com petition for the travel dollar due to the intensified efforts of other rec reational areas to attract more vis- itors this year.
 Opening of q New England cam paign of major proportions was marked yesterday (Tuesday, April 25)' In Boston, when the New England Councils recreational de- velopment program was the subject of q tribute meeting by the Advertising Club of Boston, at which Governor Joseph E. Ely of Massachusetts was the principal speaker. Colonel William A. Bar ron of Crawford Notch, N. H., chairman of the New England Councils recreational development committee, was master of cere- monies. The governors of the other five New England states were represented by directors of the New England Council from their respective states, who spoke briefly. An exhibition of New England recreational advertising accompanied the tribute meet ing. The Advertising Club program will immediately precede the open ing of the New England hotel show at the Statler. Hotel men from all over New England have been in- vited to the Advertising Club meet ing.
 The council advertising program has been the subject of special CO., operative meetings of tho advertis- ing clubs of Providence, Hartford, New Haven, Worcester and Pitts field.
 The program is designed to in- crease New Englands income from recreational visitors who are esti- mated to spend annually some 500,000,000 in New England.

LOSS OF MANY
JOBS FACED IN
RAIL PROGRAM
Joseph Eastman Suggests
Laid Off Labor Get
Public Works Posts.
BY MARSHALL MCNEIL
Times Special Writer

WASHINGTON, May 10.-Or-
ganized railway labor stated its op-
position to President Roosevelt's
emergency railroad coordination
bill to the senate interstate COM
merce committee today on the heels
of frank admission by Joseph
Eastman, who may become the CO.
ordinator, that the proposal will
throw many men out of work.
But Eastman, who is an interstate
commerce commissioner, also pro-
posed plans for absorbing the labor
thus to be laid off. by the railroads
themselves instituting a program Of
rehabilitating their plant and equip
ment at a cost of not less than
billion dollars, and by the Inaugural
ton of national public works pro-
gram.
Donald r. Richberg, counsel for
the Railway Labor Executives As
ISOLATION, todays witness before the
senate committee, is expected to
make similar suggestions.
Commissioner Eastman was to ap-
pear today before the house inter-
state and foreign commerce commit
tee to explain to that group his
idea of how the Presidents plan
will work out.
Labor's plea today for more con-
in the administrations
plan will fall on friendly ears, for
inquiries made by senators of East
man Tuesday indicated that the
paradox of co-ordinating the rail-
roads and thus laying off workers
while at the same time the govern
ment is spending millions to put
other persons to work. had not es-
capped them.
Eastman's answer was first that
the railroad bill is not offered as a
cure-all. The purpose of the bill,
he explained, is to eliminate waste
full practices and services by the
carriers.

RENO SEES NO
HOPE TO BALK
FARM STRIKE
House Defeat of Plan to
Guarantee Production
Costs Last Straw
BY HARTZELL SPENCE
United Press staff Correspondent

DIES MONIES, Ia, May 10.-The
National Farmers Holiday ASsocia-
ton appealed today to every planter
and cattleman in the country to
join the strike it has called for May
Is, ignoring reported plans of Pres
ident Roosevelt to provide emergency
relief to avert the embargo.
Milo Reno, militant head of the
Holiday association, said he was not
prepared to comment Immediately
on President Roosevelts announce
ment that he would appeal for a
moratorium on mortgage fore
closures until his agricultural pro-
gram started functioning.
Previously, Reno had said he be-
lieved the strike could be averted if
congress complied with one of the
associations five acknowledgements
tee of production costs and reason
able profit for farmers.
Peasantry, or Fight to Finish
When the house Tuesday killed
the SIMPSON, Norris amendment to
the farm bill, which would have
guaranteed production costs, Reno
declared that hopes of canceling
the strike were shattered.
Now" he said, there's nothing
for the farmer to do except submit
to peasantry or battle to the fin
ish."
The other four points of the as
sociation's demands are: Settlement
of mortgages on a interest, long
term basis, lower property taxes,
free silver and payment of the
soldiers bonus.
Reno today predicted that the
strike will end in ten days if IS per
cent of Americas farmers join the
movement"
He is confident the strike will
'starve congress into submission"
but regardless of whether it wins it's
immediate objective, he said, sit will
be tremendous value to agriculture.
Put Farmers on Feet
Reno said he felt President Roose-
welt was doing his honest best for
all industry" But he added that he
hoped the impending strike would
impress on the administration that
sit is beginning at the tail of this
problem instead of at the head"
He said that if the Simpson-Nor-
riS amendment had been approved,
the strike probably would have been
Cancelled
Put farmers back on their feet
and the depression is over" Reno
said
eff farmers were guaranteed cost
of production alone, they would
spend $200O0O,Oo0 repairing their
equipment and restoring their run
down farms

MUSSEL SHELL
FRANCHISE SOLD
BY WATER co.
Advance Guard of DiggerS
Soon to Encamp on
Canal Banks.

The battle Of muscle VS.. muscle
shells" will be resumed here in a
few days with the Indianapolis
Water Company's canal as the
scene Of conflict.
Probably within the next week,
advance guard of small army of
mussel shell diggers will encamp on
the canal banks and resume the
digging of shells which last sum-
mer resulted in a miniature war
between rival mussel shell mag
mates.
In an effort to avoid complica-
tons which resulted from the per-
NIT system which prevailed last
summer, the water company this
year has granted an exclusive fran
chise for removing the bivalves to
an expert in the industry, Fabius
GWin, Shoals attorney and present
Martin and Dubois state repre-
sentative.
500 May Get Jobs
Gwin expects to employ possibly
as many as 500 jobless men, a ma
jority of them from Marion county,
for the summer. He expects his
daily pay roll to average nearly
$500.
The mussel shells will be hauled
from the canal banks to a steam
cooking plant near Broad Ripple
where the mussels will be separated
from their homes and the shells
then shipped by railroad to Musca-
tine and Washington, Ia, where
they will be transformed into pearl
buttons and similar articles.
Gwin is chief stakeholder in the
Shoals Pearl Button Company,
which operates three plants at
Shoals, and sole owner of the GWin
Pearl Button Company, which oper-
ates two plants in Loogootee and
one in Vincennes.
Discovered by Accident
He is reported to have agreed to
pay the water company a royaltI
of S. a ton on all shells removed,
and to have contracts to dispose of
all the shells at $50 ton to the
Iowa plants.
The water company first discov-
cred that the much sought after
shells inhabited the canal, last
summer by accident.
A minor employe of the company,
working on the canal, gave permits
sion to one of his Broad Ripple
neighbors to remove some of the
shells.
Army Soon at Work
Soon an army of shell diggers
were at work, the original digger
having sold his contract"
Broad Ripple residents resented
an invasion of Noblesville diggerS
and several pitched battles en-
sued, resulting in police arresting
a number of the Noblesville contin-
gent.
Through arbitration engineered
by the company, an armistice was
declared and the two groups finally
agreed to work together.
