An excellent program has been arranged. — o SAPP PLEADS FOR RETURN TO CHURCH OF MEN K'tiNTlNi ED FROM PAGE ONE) of Mr. Sapp, presided as chairman of the meeting ».n<! introduced the speaker. A men'« chorus composed of singers from all the Protestant churches and led by W. F. Beery entertained 'with several songs and the entire assembly sang several songs. The banquet meal was prepared by members of the Eastern Star lodge and served by ladies of the various local churches. It included filed chicken, mashed potatoes and gravy, beans, pineapple salad, rolls, ice cream, cake and coffee. The meeting was the result of a conference of delegates from all local Protestant, churches. C. E. Peterson was chairman of the committee. It is understood the group will be permanently organized and that a series of men's gatherings similar to last night's will be held. The Men's Brotherhood of the First Evangelical church of this city has invited the men of all churches to a similar meeting May 8 at the Evangelical church. The entire group present last night accepted the invitation. Following the program, the men of various churches remained for an hour and discussed current church problems. Mr. Sapp returned to Huntington last evening. NEW COALITION WILL REWRITE TARIFF BILL <(X)NTINVED FROM PAGE ONE) previous roll calls. They have justified these switches by saying the lates now being proposed are not so much as vyere previously proposed. Charges have been made openly on the floor that a secret understanding exi ts, but whether these charges are true or not, the various groups are getting what they want. Tiie situation undoubtedly will prolong the tai-iff discussipn in the senate indefinitely if it does not arouse a filibuster. The farm bloc members already have signified their intention of asking another vote on cement and sugar, and they can go on indefinitely demanding additional votes. Some observers give credit for formulating the new coalition to Sen. Joseph R. Grundy. Repn., Pa., alleged employment of a senate office for his American tariff league has aroused considerate senate debate. While there have been threats that resolutions may be introduced proposing to oust the league from Grundy's office, if Grundy himself doe not act. no resolution has yet been introduced. Six Are Not Guilty South Bend. Ind., Mar.B <U.R) Six defendants in the Michigan City conspiracy trial were treed today when the federal court jury trying them, reported a verdict of not guilty after 18 hours' deliberation.

Those acquitted are Joseph Allie, former prohibition agent; Richard Kruse, former Michigan City police chief; Frank Lapham, former deputy sheriff, and Frank Arndt, Louis Mazzaia and Joseph Cardona, alleged racketeers.

HOOVER SEES BETTER TIMES Predicts Peak of Unemployment Will Pass Within Next 60 Days Washington, Mur. 8.- (U.R) —President Hoover and the commerce and labor departments see the dark clouds of unemployment and business uncertainty cleared away within 69 days. Chief executive, Secretary of Commerce Lamont and Secretary of Labor Davis were on record to tills effect today in a series of optimistic statements which were issued after they had made a three-hour study of the latest tig i urea. "The undertakings to maintain wages have been hel<J.” j In connection with the promise lot business leaders last fall to i maintain wages and personnel, so far as possible, however, it. was learned that the labor department has received four or five complaints stating employers are not carry j ing out their agreement. Two of these complaints, according to Hugh L. Kerwin, councilia- | tiou commissioner of tiie depart ment, were forwarded by the White House while the others came directly to the labor department. One was from the American Federation of Labor, another from a Washington labor organization and the others from various laborers over the country. The hand of Mr. Hoover was seen in an appeal to the average citizen to help by starting ahead of time this year those little jobs of cleaning up and repairing usually done about the home in tiie springtime, so that many now unemployed may have work. This suggestion was made In the joint statement by Davis and Lamont, which was issued with that of the president from the White House late yesterday. High points of tiie joint sum mary of tiie situation were: 1. The worst effects of the stock market crash on employment will pass within 6tt days. 2. The low point of business depression and unemployment was i reached in late December and early 'January. Conditions have steadily ! improved since then. 3. The amount of unemployment, jin proportion to tiie number of I workers, is only one-third or onehalf as serious as it was follow ing the paiiics of 1907-08 and 1920122. 4. A canvass of trades employj ing 17.900.000 persons indicates [that between 1,900,000 and 1,125,090, more persons are out ot' work now than at tins time last year. 5. Acute unemployment is con fined to 12 states, while in the other 36 "seasonal unemployment" or "minor abnormal unemployment" is rapidly being absorbed. — o— Youth Betrays Trust Indianapolis. Mar. B.—(U.R) -One youth is under arrest charged with betraying trust placed in him by a girl, and another is hunted by police for alleged betrayal of confidence of two other girls. Wayne Estus, 23, was arrested after Miss Eleanor Cobb, 19, maid, told police he had taken her watch, diamond ring anil auto, and that he owed her sls. She told police she had met Estus two weeks ago, and head been keeping company with him since. He was arrested when he returned her car last night. He admitted pawning tiie watch and ring. Miss Josephine Russa and Mary Smith complained to police that a "nice young man" they had permitted to occupy a room in their apartment when he had no other place to stay, returned in their absence and took S3OO worth of clothing, jewelry and toilet articles. [Crockett Acquitted of Murder on 10th Ballot Logansport, Ind., Mar. a.—(U.R) John Horace Crockett today was acquitted of a murder charge by a Cass county circuit jury on its 10th ballot. Crockett was charged with the murder of Earl Armstrong, one of two men killed Feb. 28. 1929. ai a liquor camp cn the Wabash river near Logansport. The jury's first ballot was 9 to 3 for acquittal.

forced to give up his duties on the supreme court several weeks ago.
