UNEMPLOYED TO
 BE CONSIDERED
American Federation of Labor Will Do SOn1e=
 thing at Its Session

Atlantic City, N. J., Aug z. (UP) Organized labor's leaders, were believed planning gigantic drive for extended government action against unemployment to-day as the American Federation of Labor executive council meeting entered its second day.
 President William Green indi- cated the annual Federation Con- vention at San Francisco October 1 would throw it's full force behind a drive to establish a compulsory five-day work week Restoration of the civil works administration in place of direct relief measures which succeeded it, may be asked.
 Green, estimating the unemploy- ed still numbered 10,000,000 de- clared:
 "Our four years of terrible un- employment have demonstrated the fact htat if we are to provide work for all, the five-day week must be established.
 He asserted that while MIRA had made jobs for 3,000,000 to 4,000,- 900 persons, industry was too slow in absorbing the idle, and probably would not be able to take up the slack without uniform shorten ing of working time. The council will confer 10 days or two weeks in laying the framework for con- vention action.

(By Unted Prcss)

The world listened today when bugles blew taps over the grave of Paul Von Hindenburg and the mournful notes sounded a valedic- tory to a VOW taken 20 years ago this month just as the sun drop ped behind the Masurian lakes in East Prussia.
 Paul Von Hindenburg took that VOW. Had he not taken 1t and fought the battle that followed he would have died in obscurity-Just another German soldier who was born too soon to seize the main chance.
 Even before the World War started they were calling linden burg "Der Ate, the old one. The march of the years, they were say ing, had left him fit for nothing except an occasional chess game at the Lime Tree cafe in Neu- deck.
 Then, in the Indian summer of 1914, two Russian armies clamped themselves like pincers on East Prussa and slogged through the marshes toward the high road to Berlin. Someone in the German high command recalled that Der Ate" had been somewhat of a crack-pot on the subject of the strategic importance of the Masur- ian lakes. There came a summons one day from the Kaiser and the chess men were put back in the box at the Lime Tree cafe.
 With Hindenburg went Erich Won Ludendorff as chief of staff. On Aug. 23, 1914, they stood to- gether at Marienwerder with 200.- GOO disorganized men encamped around them. The two Russian ar mics totalled 600.000.
 The story that follows is the story of the battle of Tannenbure "a disastrous rout that sent the invading armies reeling back to ward Moscow, left hundreds oi fhousands of drowned Russians ir the Masurian lakes.
 Outnumbered three to one. Hin denburg knew his only hope wa' to destroy one Russian army Sn' strike Che other one before 1t cou't be reinforced. Directly to the sas were 400, ,0OG Russians under 1en eral Rennenkampf. on the sout'
