 Des Moines, Ia., Sept, 2.--(UP)- The meeting of President Roosevelt and Gov. Ali M. Landon tomorrow may provide one of the most deli- cate tasks of the presidential cam paign for democratic and repubh- can boards of strategy. Conveying on Des Moines for Q strictly nom political conference on drouth re- lief, the major party presidential nominees must nevertheless face the fact that the nation will wit- ness their meeting against back ground crammed with potential political dynamite.
 Keep Politics Out
 Both candidates have laid em- phasis on their desire to keep the vital problem of drouth measures out of presidential campaign poli- tics. Yet both will guard carefully against the possibility of charges they are making political capital of crisis which has drastically affected @ huge portion of the na- tion's agricultural belt. The pre- cautions taken by strategists of both parties. have promised one of the most unusual meetings in American political history.

IL was in Connecticut that Hiram Percy Maxim organized the Anneri- can Radio Relay League, with head-i qusTters at West Hartford, embrace ing a membership of many thotl- sands throughout the United States, its territories and possessions. Here,

These organizations, he declared, have made important coil- t-inutions to the use of radio, tech- nically and otherwise.

 Probably about noon," she said, and after @ moments hesitation, Would you like to come in the house and waltz"
 As that was exactly what I wanted to do, but so as not to appear too pleased about 1t I af- fected to deliberate before re- piled, "Yes, thank you, I think I'd better wait little while as l shall not be in town for long, and have an important inquiry to make of the President.

once every 60 days. So far, the work done in oflces throughout the state has been done by dividing the ap- plica1ts into four classes: (l) per- sons suited for competitive er- ployment; (2) suitable for protected employment, unable to compete, (3) unemplOyable, (4) unclassified. New Classification
 It is to be noted that this work is in no way connected with the present reclassification of WPA ern- ployes which is being done by the local department of welfare. The occupational classification is being done to find out the suitability of persons for jobs, while the reclassi- fication work done by the welfare department is concerned with the present need for relief of the per- sons now working for the WPA.
 At the present time 1t is estimated that there are about 10000 persons in the state working for the WPA and about the same number listed on the files as not yet placed on private or relief jobs. In the state about 5000 occupational classifica- tions of persons not on the WPA have been made.

The members of the staff at the State employment once in Water bury have been conducting occu- pational analysis in suburban towns included in the Waterbury district for some weeks, according to an announcement made this morning by Manager Thomas I. Shea. This has been done in order to secure accurate information in regard to the kind of jobs Waterbury's relief recipients are qualified to fill. The program is being carried out by all employment offices in the state.
 Studying Plan
 It is expected that some time next winter the work will be completed in all parts of the state and at that time figures will be released by the state and federal employment ser- vice which will clearly show what portion of the present relief load made upon the unefnployables and enable the agencies to know how employables can be best given work.
 The present plan is to contact those people on relief who have been removed from the active files because of failure to report at the

Yesterday in the great MOr- mon tabernacle i'm Salt Lake City, the nation honored its H. lustriOus son-the late Secretary of War George H. Dern. Presi- dent Franklin D. Roosevelt was numbered among the many dis tinguished motIrners. The cere- monies served to remind John Barr, one of Waterbury's out standing students of American history, of his exciting visit to the state of Utah when Mor- mons were aggressively defend ing their right to practice polygamy. MT. Barr rcnews his weekly contribution to The Democrat with this interesting article. His writings will be featured from time to time. At present Mir. Barr is preparing Q series on historical subjects Of the same interesting nature that aroused 50 much interest last spring. MT. Barr received many communications for his excellent work.
 His visit Co Utah Is described as follows:

 to California; via Union Pacific and Denver and Rio Grande rail- roads, and had planned to stop over for Q few days at Salt Lake City.
 Polygamy Popular
 The Mormon Question was then very acute. Utah was not vet c state; but the population was increasing rapidly - due to the activities of the travelling Nor mon missionaries" in Europe and Canada, where many converts" were made; besides their boldness in our own country, openly preach- ing polygamy as divinely ordered institution. Another attraction the Mormon church had held out was the financial prosperity of their organization and the success of its collective business enterprises which were in fact very shrewdly and capably managed.
 But President Grover Cleveland had q duty to perform in the mat ter and in his characteristic vig- orous style he set about an uncoTl1- promising enforcement of the Fed eral laws against polygamy as openly practiced in our Territory of Utah = despite the "cotlscien- tious objections of the Mormor1s. Necessary arrests and Jail-sen- tences followed - and the Mor- mons were in an ugly mood.
 And this was the state of things when our journey brought us into Utah, and ct about 8 o'clock one fine April morning to Salt Lake City,, 1; M
 Shortly before our arrival. the peace and quiet of our Pullman had been upset by an unexpecteo quarrel, that developed into the beginning of a fight, between two of the passengers - of whom happened to be one; ana these were the circumstances:
 Fighting Stranger As usual, I was Up and dressed at sunrise; the porter had put up my berth and ! was in my seat looking out of the car window. None Of the. other passengers were up except 6 young man Of about my own age, who came over pleas. antly and asked if he might sit with me till his own seat was ready,
 Ali was friendly between us till I chanced to refer to the action of the president in enforcing the anti-poiygamy laMs in Utah. Much to my surprise - for I had as- stunned that the young man was Q tourist from the East like myself -he flew into q rage and declared 4AiinntIy that the United States government had no right to Inter. fere in the domestic affairs of Utah.

noon. Tn line with his routine on the recent survey of the drouth areas, the president will motor from his train to the state Capitol for 8 luncheon to which Gov. Clyde Her. ring has invited the governors aTl senators of Minnesota, Wisconsin, Nebraska, Iowa, Missouri, Kansas and Oklahoma.
 Public Is Barred
 But at the Capitol, scene of the conference, the public will be barred from the building, there will be no posed photographs and the wing of the Capitol in which the meeting will occur will be blocked off by 8 canvas partition across the corridor effectively isolating the conferees. In addition, there will be no public speeches or appearances and, after the initial meeting, the president will consult individually with the governor of each state. Gov. Lan- don will take just as drastic pre- cautions against permitting his visit to the Iowa Capitol being turned into a political demonstration.
 LandOn By Auto
 The Kansas governor will leave Topeka early Thursday morning by automobile -because any available train schedule would put him in Des Moines several hours before the conference starts. He will arrive over an undisclosed route only a short time before he is scheduled to sit down at the conference table and he will leave as soon as con- venient after the dinner which will be given Thursday night on the presidents train. It was not even certain that the republican nominee would arrive in time to take ad- vantage of Herring's invitation to luncheon.
