The closing resolution of the party

ated opposition to German demands
for restoration OF her lost colonies as
an aid to her economic expansion.
The Radical-Socialist party resolu-
ton declared that ito establish real

for the improvement of international
economic relations, which are an es..
sential condition Of peace

Substitution of Regional Dis.
trictS Immediate Cause
of Reductions.

Approximately 500 field employees
were served from Public Works Ad.
ministration pay rolls today as the
new regional set up went into effect
The substitution OF seven regional
districts for the 48 separate State
units existing heretofore was the i'm
mediate cause of the initial reduction
in personnel. Onicials explained it
was lust the beginning"
A large majority of the estimated
$500 persons remaining in the P. w
A. will be let out Of the service In
the next few months. With funds
denied for new projects, it was esti-
mated the existing program of public
works will be completed within the
next year. Then the p. w. A. will
fold UP. unless, in the meantime, Con-
gress provides funds for additional
projects. -
Old Story to p. w. A. STAFF.
These reductions in personnel COM
prise an old story to members of the
P. w. A. staff. In April, 1896. there
were 10.936 employees in the field and
in the Washington headquarters. n
cluding the dismissals today, the staff
has been scaled down to approximately
$500.
A large majority of the $500 en-
ployes in the Washington headquar-
ters will be affected by future layofis.
The reductions here, however, will be
fewer than in the field, as it will be
necessary to maintain q competent
working nucleus until the last chap
ter of the p. w. A. is written.
600 Workers Transferred.
The 600 employees in che former
Housing Division were transferred to-
day by executive order to the new
Housing Authority under Administra-
tor Nathan Straus. This had been
arranged by the President last week.

BEGINS PARLEYS
N. L. Wilson First Agency
Head to Bring in Problems
of Administration.
By J. RUSSELL YOUNG.

~ ASOSoA<A>A u OSKN0s
James Roosevelt, son Of the Presi-
dent and member of his secretariat,
today held the first of q series Of con-
ferences with the heads OF independ-
ent and emergency agencies to solve
the administration problems and effect
better coordination.
The first was with M. L. Wilson,
Undersecretary Of Agriculture. The
others scheduled for a half hour each
throughout the remainder of the day
were with A. ]. Altmeyer, chairman Of
the Social Security Board; John c.
Page, reclamation commissioner: Clyde
L. Seavey, chairman of the Federal
Power Commission; Joseph p. Ken
nedy, chairman of the Maritime Com
mission; w. A. Ayres. member Of the
Federal Trade Commission; Q. F. Hos
ford, chairman of the Federal Bitumi-
nous Coal Commission, and ]. w. Mad
den, chairman Of the National Labor
Relations Board.
Mr.. Altmeyer, who was accompanied
by Miss Mary w. Dewson, member Of
the Social Security Board, said that,
while nothing definite was discussed
today, he felt sure the conference idea
will offer splendid opportunity for
agencies to lay their problems at the
White House and obtain suggestions
for bringing about greater co-opera-
ton. Mr.. Page and Mr.. Wilson gave
reports which were virtually the same.
Mr.. Seavey said he was pleased to
have such medium of contact with
the White House and that he had laid
some OF the problems of his commits
sion before young Roosevelt.
Today's conference schedule orig
inally included the names Of Jesse
Jones, chairman Of the Reconstruction
Finance Corp, and Mariner 8. Eccles,
governor Of the Federal Reserve Board,
who were out of the city today, and
w. I. Myers, governor of the Federal
Farm Credit Board, who was Ill 1t
home.
As outlined by the President, these
conferences, intended to promote en-
cheney and to save the Presidents
time, will be held each Monday and
Tuesday In James Roosevelt,s ONCE.
As explained by the President fol-
lowing an announcement about q
week ago as to this new White House
set-up, James Roosevelt Is not to act
In the capacity Of co-ordinator Of Gov
ernment activities, but merely In the
capacity Of clearing house, head.
In other words, independent bureau
and emergency heads, when they have
administration policy and problems to
suggest, win bring them to SECRETARY
Roosevelt ct the weekly conferences
instead Of to the President himself.
OF course, matters Of Importance
which develop ct the conferences will
b. brought immediately to the atten-
ton Of the President by his son.
