SANDLAND WAS
MENTIONED FOR
THE CHAIRMAN
North End. Political Club
Has Endorsed Him for
That Place

ExMayor William II. Sandland
has been endorsed for the post of
. chairman of the republican town
committee by the North End Po-
litical Tub, 1t was announced to-
day. With the reorganization s<of
the 8. o. p. committee now a short
time away, 1t is expected that a
concerted effort will be Amade to
upset the present personnel and to
date the name of ex-Mayor Sand
land is the only one to be heard
of as the possible successor to
Chairman T. Il. Conway.
The Pape-Cooney forces are to
demand a complete change over.
The name of ex-Mayor Sandland
is not to be received with pleasure
by them, 1t Is an assured fact. It
is likely that ex-Alderman Andrew
j. Cooney, himself, will be set
forth for the post.
The North End club also en-
dorsed George L. McGrath for the
post of assessor. The term of As
SCISSOR Arthur Nelson expires the
end Of this month. Mr. Nelson Is a
republican and so Is Mr. McGrath.
The administration has limited,
however, that Mayor Hayes may
appoint a ar-a-year-man" for
the post. 1t is also possible that Mr.
Nelson will be named for another
term.
Republican Town Chairman
Conway has delayed calling the
organization meeting of the 6. o. p.
town committee for some un-
known reason. With the state cleo
ton only several months away,
many republicans are. asking why
organization steps have not been
taken so as %oi let the ball get
started rolling.
When the town convention dele
gates meet there is likely to be a
complete upset. The Pape-Cooney
forces are now working hard
among the delegates, it is re-
ported, and plan to spring some
very great surprises. The reason
for the dissatisfaction in the ranks
of some &. o. p. members is that
the republicans of Waterbury fell
down on ex-Alderman Cooney in
his mayoralty campaign last fall
rs repayment for the assistance
given Congressman T.. w. Goss by
the democratic organization in the
election OF 1882.

America, But Became
British Subject

Torquay, England, Feb 12-(U.
P.) Washington M. G. Singer,

For three years the Anglo-Amer-
lean sportsman had suffered from
heart disease. 1t was his ambition
to win the derby and he was bit
terly disappointed when his Orwell,
favorite in the 1882 race, failed to
win. Singer was forbidden by his
physician to see the race because
it was feared the excitement might
cause his death. In 1925 his Lance
gave was @ close second to Lord
Wolavington's 43-5 horse Coron-
ach. An enthusiastic horseman,
Singer was the first American mas
ter of fox hounds In England.

negotiations toward settlement OF
any Industrial dispute are made
much easier when employers ana
employees are able, as they are un-
der MIRA, to sit down at the same
table and discuss a situation sane
ly. That obviates such drastic ana
harmful methods as strikes" The
board has handled in its 10 weeks
lis cases, II of which are still
pending. The bulk OF them were in
and around Detroit; others were in
Pontiac, Flint, Coldwater, Muske-
gon, Bay City, and Grand Rapids.
I'VE have not yet encountered a
case which we had to drop because
we could not reach a settlement"
continued Mr. Larned. our chief
difficulty has been lack of UNDER
standing of their obligations among
both sides. A number of complaints
were withdrawn when the parties
effected settlements between them
selves" OF the IL members of the

5 are employers, and labor lead
ers. All serve without pay.
Mr. Larned also is chairman of
the Detroit NRA Compliance board
which seeks to obtain full compli-
ance of employers who signed the
Presidents Unemployment Agree
ment. a
"Since the Compliance Board be-
gan to function, September Is, said
Mr. Larned Approximately 1900
complaints in a form requiring ac-
ton have been filed. In addition
there were 1900 anonymous COM
plants and an untold number of
inquiries or MISUNDERSTANDING to
handle. In 13 cases, where en-
ployers were not complying and
would not comply with the PRA,
the Board recommended to WASH
ington the withdrawal of the Blue
Eagle. Except for these cases, the
attitude of Detroit toward the PRA
is very favorable"
About $50 petitions for excep-
tons, on the ground of great hard
ship" from provisions of the PRA
were filed with the Board, 200 by
restaurants, and 16 by laundries.
Eight of these were denied and 176
approved. The first to lose the Blue

application for it's restoration, ac-
companied by satisfactory restitu.
