America needs a plan for national
unity to cope with dangers of strife
at home and abroad, Dr. Frank N. d.
Buchanan told 1900 delegates to the
Second World Assembly for Moral
Rearmament today.
The founder of the Oxford move

Trial j. ). Census
To Ask New Data on
Jobs and Housing
Procedure to Be Tested
In Indiana; Also Whether
Questions Are DisIiked
By the Associated Press.

Nose-counters soon will tap on
doors in two Northern Indiana
counties chosen as guinea pigs"
for 1910 census planned to bring
in new facts on American living
habits.
In addition to the usual name
and-age data they will ask about
employment, housing, personal in
come and migration-none of which
were on the 1880 bill-of-fare.
If the experiment works the
census door-knockers of 1910 will
ask at every American home such
new questions as rs your home
owned free of debt, owned mort
gagged or rented?" And Where
were you living on August IA, 1934?"
and Were you at work any time
last week?" and (of persons unem-
ployed How long have you been
seeking wo-k?"
AS usual, the answers will be con-
fidential.
Secretary of Commerce Hopkins
ordered the trial heat of the census
runners in two typical counties" a
year before the big 10th year nose
counting of Americans to find out
how the new questions go.
I'VE want to find out if there
are any bugs in our schedule of
questions" explained Census Di-
rector William L. Austin, "and what
the reaction of the average Ameri-
can is to the queries. The best way
to find out is to try them. We
want to check, too, on the efficiency
of our field force so we can correct
any faults before the big census
starts
If the census takers are not
scoWled down when they put the
questions to 100000 Hoosiers in Mar
shall and st. Joseph Counties the
queries will be carried throughout
the land next year In less than
a month some 100000 enumerators
then will bring in the answers for
the more than l20,000,0OO Ameri-

Recreation Board
To Meet Tomorrow
On Reorganization
Important Positions in
New Setup Will Be
Subject Of Study

The District Recreation Board
will meet tomorrow at 10 am. at
the District Building to consider the
organization proposals submitted by
Recreation Director Lewis r. Bar
rett.
The proposals were presented
earlier to a tWo-man subcommittee
of the board consisting of Engineer
Commissioner David McCoach, jr,
and G. Melvin Sharpe, member of
the Board of Education.
Col. McCoach announced that the
proposals of Mr.. Barrett relative to
the less important personnel posts
had been approved and that these
appointments would be made for a
temporary period. Details of the
more important positions in the or
ganization probably will be discussed
tomorrow.
Another COmplicatinx Factor.
The latest complicating factor in
the organization picture, it develops,
was the unlocked for situation in
which the salaries for the director
OF the community center and sew
eral secretaries in the department
are appropriated for in accordance
with acts of Congress and therefore
cannot be reorganized. Some OBJ
servers expressed the opinion that
this situation could be circumvented
by failing to fill the post of director
OF community centers, which is be-
ing vacated by Mrs. Elizabeth K.
Peoples for a school principalship.
The appropriation of $500 would
be lost by this procedure, however.
the money returning to the general
fund
In addition Mr.. Barrett has been
given $50 1000 less to work with than
the estimates called for, because of
his expressed opinion before Con-
gress that this much could be saved
by the consolidation of recreation
facilities and personnel according
to plan he had prepared.
Transfer of Appropria tions.
The 1910 Budget Act, by a
transfer of appropriations, merged
the former Municipal Playground
Department with the Community
Center Department of the Board of
Education under the joint control
OF the board and the Commits
sloners. The Recreatio Board was
formed to control the new setup
and consists of the three District
Commissioners, Mr.. Sharpe. Mrs.
Henry Grattan Doyle, president of
the Board of Education, and John
H. Wilson, senior colored member
of the board.
If the plan submitted by Mr.. Bar
rett Is ratified by the Recreation
Board tomorrow, it will have to be
approved by the School Board before
it is effective.

hauling in trophies. Some were
thrown back into the sea. Others
were brought in as priced memen-
tos.
Capt. Savage said Secretary Of
Commerce Harry Hopkins and four

did not know were in the party.
Capt. Savage said those fishing
from the Potomac found the yacht
too large for real fishing and that

Sea "Alive" With Marlin.
Capt. Savage will take more bait
to the Potomac early tomorrow and
the presidential party plans to reach
the Jack Spot by am.
Capt. Chester Gray, aboard the
Hilda, reported by short-wave radio
this afternoon that the sea was
literally "alive" with marlin.
Capt. Gray said that before noon
the fishing fleet had boated more
than 40 marlin and that a large
number were being tagged and re-
leased. His own boat had landed
eight and released six.
He declared the run was "unbe-
lievable" and that boats were getting
two and three strikes at time,
losing gear as lines fouled and out
riggers snapped under the savage
assaults of the white marlin.
James Jarmon. Ocean City Cham
Der of Commerce official, stated this
afternoon that today's catch ran the
current weeks total to more than
4O0-almost half the number landed
during the whole of last season.
Conservation Asked.
The record catch brought former
Maryland Conservation Commits
sioner Swepson Earle, now with the
United States Bureau of Fisheries,
to Ocean City today to request the
aid of fishermen in conservation
work.
He asked sportsmen to retain only
the marlin they desire to keep as
trophies, and to throw the remain
der of their catch back into the
sea. Many did so.
Mr.. Earle gave each boat a sup
ply of metal tags bearing numbers
and the name of the Bureau of Fish
cries and requested that tags be
affixed to all marlin returned to the
sea SO the bureau, when advised of
subsequent catches of tagged mar
lin, can trace the movement of the
fish.
Two tags are to be placed on each
hsh, one on the spear near the
mouth, the other in the lower gill.

responsible folks that he was firmly
convinced that diversion was evil
per Sc and should not be considered.
But next day after Governor Hoey
made his appeal OF the joint session,
an appeal that was carried over a
statewide radio hook-up, Mayor Tom
telegraphed his excellency that the
speech had converted him. There
are those who see in this telegram
the mayors recognition that diver
sion is going to be more popular from
now on.
Then, on Wednesday night State
Auditor George Ross Pou, who in ali
OF his political experience has call
ed but one big turn wrong, took the
air in opposition to the governors
diversion program. Mr.. Pou wanted
to succeed his distinguished father
in Congress, but Harold Cooley and
the people of the fourth district had
other ideas. That was the astute
Pou's only wild guess. It was believ-

"the administration" contributed to
his defeat. But he came back and
joined the administration by getting

splcuous for his loyalty to Governor
Hoey and the administration pro-

surprise to find George Pou against
the governor as to find Tom Cooper

MARSHALL: A fellow who hasn't said
a word in the committee meetings so
far, but who is generally regarded as
status quo chap, one who isn't owe
~ fond of the idea of giving anybody
particular y Republicans, any more
break than absolutely necessary
Of course, Chairman Phillips of the
full committee, regards himself as an
ex-OfficiO member Of the suo-grou
He is a plain-speaking country law
yer who obviously wants to work ou
a bill which will give North Carolina
which has echoed and re-echoed since
the primaries of 1898.
Obviously, it is not gong to be any
easy matter to get flu agreement in
a group like this; but Mr.. Phillips
and many observers believe it will be
accomplished.
To begin with it can be written
down as absolutely certain that soma
sort of election law reform bill is
going to be enacted.
That admitted and conceded, there
become apparent three other possi-
bilities-complete repeal of all alb
sentee voting laws, repeal in pri-
maries and reform for general elec
tions, and reform without repeal fol
both.
There isn't more than an outside
chance, at most, for absolute repeal;
not even Mr.. McBryde will contend
there is.
That leaves only the last two pos
sibilities and it is between them
that the final choice will be made,
in all probability.
In the final analysis, the sub-com-
mittee struggle is going to come,
then, in clash between the Null and
the Taylor views (and parenthetically
it may be said they are two of the
ablest, most thorough-thinking mem
bers of the Assembly, The resu t
will be determined by their ability to
swing the others.
Without any warranty of wisdom
or guarantee of fulfillment, it would
seem that Marshall and McBryde are
quite likely to capitu ate to the Null,
rather than to the Taylor views
though for diametrically opposite rea
sons, the former because it would
leave the absentee for use against
Republicans, the latter because it
would give at least half the "aIbo j.
ton" for which the Cumberlander
has been working.
On the other hand, Kerr and Vog-
ler are more likely to follow the
Wayne rather than the Cleveland
representative, because neither want
~l,olish the absentee in either pri-
maries or general elections.
III trat snould in fact, be the way
