The Vanderbilt yacht Alva, recently completed at f Kiel, Germany, is undergoing final touching at New- | port News, Va., in preparation for a round-the- I world cruise. The yacht will be commanded by the owner, William K. Vanderbilt, who will be accom- 1 panied on his eight month s tour by his present wife, the former Mr*. Rosamond Lancaster Warburton.

I I Newport News, Va., May 7. —Peri haps one of the most noted sea exj plorers in> America is the socially i prominent William Kissam Vanderbilt, Many will recall his eventful voyage aboard the Ara. in which, . accompanied by his wife, a few guests and a crew of thirty-six, th" millionaire sportsman, set out from I New York on a trip around the | world. During the eight months' I cruise on the 213-foot yacht, the I Vanderbilt party touched at seventy- ! nine European and African ports. I The trip took them through the Atlantic and Pacific oceans, the Modi terranean. Arabian, China and Red seas. Mr. Vanderbilt, who is a lieuteniant conunander in the United States i Naval Reserve, commanded the I yacht on the 28,000-mile voyage. In a comprehensive manner he deI scribed his journey in a 261-page j volume embellished in twenty-nine

SHORT WORK DAY ASKED TO SOLVE UNEMPLOYMENT German Committee Gets 3,000 Proposals; Many Are Bizarre Berlin, —(UP)—More than 3,000 written proposals have been presented to the Committee of Ten which the Get man government appointed early in February to study means for coping with unemploy-* metit. The committee, headed by ex-' Minister of Labor Heinrich Brauns, pub-' shed its first recommendations on - il 4, the most significant proposal being curtailment of working hours in various industries by enactment of a special law. While the 3,000 suggestions submitted to the committee may be regarded as monuments to the deep I Interest which the committee’s in- | vesttgation aroused among the dis- ' tress population, many of the proi posaU are bizarre. Thus, one citizen j urged that women be barred from I employment and Implored the com ■ mittee "to throw out the short-hair I ed, petticoated mob, cluttering up | our industries,’’ Secret Scheme Another announced that he had a secret scheme for reducing gdv- • eminent doles for the jobless; he ' stated h.’s willingness to unveil his i secret providing the government I would pay him one per cent of the vast sum to be saved.

He secured many rare specimens of fish for I ! his private collection on the north .'shore of Long Island, N. Y. Includ- ’; ed in the 3,000 specimens of marine ■ life were many birds of rare scieni title value. Perhaps the most in--1 teresting of the catches, from a non- ' I scientific viewpoint, was a crucifix ■ fish, which has* on the under part -of its skull a detailed representation of the Saviour upon the cross, (it was captured in tlie Sea of Fonseca, Manhuera Islands. I The Ara is a historical yacht. Bought by Mr. Vanderbilt, it was originally built for the British Ad- < miralty at the end of the World ■ War and later turned over to the i French.

1 tributpr was so convinced of the efi ficacy of his plan that he cautious- | !y registered it at the German patI ent office before handing it to the | committee. Other suggestions were; seal all; I machines in Germany and return j o the age of handicraft; tax the j twner of eve y machine so heavily ■ I bat he will prefer to replace it by j human labor; every Get man who I rea; lies the ago of fifty-live shall be barred from paid employment and j receive a modest pension; the huge: .urns reeded for the telife of workless citizens should be raised by evying a special tax on every Gernan who walks the streets without i ha: (it is not known whether this dea emanated from a hat urer; certain German plains shall be trftnsiormed into tea plantations! ~on which jobless shall be emplov;t d: int-ead of giving the unemploy-1 ed cash doles relief should be ad- ■ ministered by the distribution of . food, clothes and other merchandise; a sixty-page manuscript sag-j j guests the formation of a national j I fire department for the occupation ■'of the jobless; special scheme] ■! were outlined for developing whal- j ' j irg, oil wildcatting and herring-1 ■ i fisheries; byway of economy, one j '' "economist" proposed that every, ■ I workloss citizen must swear a “na1 i tidnal oath’ that he has no means; I ] of support and, in case of purjury ■ be barred from the dole for three I years and forfeit all his civil rights.
