BY HARRY FERGUSON United Tress Staff Correspondent NEW YORK, Nov. 26.—From out of the mass of data assembled in the flies of the emergency work bureau there stepped today a composite man who stands as a symbol for the 4,000,000 unemployed in this country. He is a product of the law of averages, and information which will be presented here about his family, his wardrobe and his business ability represents findings based on the 11,000 records in the bureau files. These individual case histories have been averaged by officials of the bureau and they offer the following characteristics as typical: The man is 40. He has a wife and two children, and lives in an apartment which he leases by the year. Two years ago he was making $37.50 a week as clerk in the accounting department of a middle-sized manufacturing concern. His suit is neatly pressed, but he bought it fourteen months ago for $32 50 at a sale.

By United Press Chicago, Nov. 26.—out in the neighborhood of Halstead and Nineteenth streets where 1,000 turkeys disappeared from a poultry company delivery truck—there were preparations today for bigger and better Thanksgiving dinners. Rudolph Patrick, truck driver, who was hauling the turkeys from a market place to a downtown store, told of the circumstances in the case. “Nice and fat, the turkeys were,” he said, “All ready for the stuffing, dressed and with the feathers plucked off. The boss said they were worth $5,000. “I parked the truck in front of a Halstead street cigar store and was only a few minutes. The turkeys were packed in barrels and at first I didn’t know they were missing.” Patrick indignantly denied the charges of residents of the neighborhood that he watched while the turkeys were loaded on another truck. The policeman who walks the beat took the truck driver’s part. “All along the street,” the officer said, “I hear people singing ‘Happy days are here again.’ Most of those people are too poor to afford turkey for Thanksgiving, but that's what they’re cooking.” a tt a Judge Ignores Dry La w By United Press CHICAGO* Nov. 26.—A1l the laws in the Constitution, except the eighteenth amendment, will be upheld by Thomas Greene, municipal court judge, the jurist announced when he was sworn into office.

"It is ridiculous to dress a policeman up that way,” said Alderman John Toman, in a resolution to the city council, “even if it does make him look well-tailored. “Recently I saw two women hold two policemen helpless, simply by grabbing their belts and pulling them together. Every time the cops swung at the women they would hit each other.” a a tt Hcs a Good Loser CHICAGO.

i The third week in November of 1929 he lost his job after getting two weeks’ notice. He has not worked since and the $1,413 that he had in a savings bank gave out on Sept. 28 of this year. In the middle of the summer he moved with his family to two furnished rooms where the rent was less than it had been in Iris apartment. He gets up at 6:30 a. m., to be the first in line at the employment agencies. He hides the gravity of his finanical condition from his friends and believes things will be better soon. With the approach of winter, however, he has begun to pose as a common laborer, because he believes his chances are better at getting that type of job than they are of finding a so-called white collar position.
SLEDS BANNED FROMSTREETS Coasting in Public Parks Only, Police Say. Children must not coast or skate on public streets. They may take their sleds or skates to the city parks, where arrangements have been made to care for them. This was the edict this morning of Police Chief Jerry Kinney. Heretofore, the police department has erected barricades at certain streets, barring traffic so that the children might have their fun in. safety.

At the park board meeting Friday. arrangements will be made for coasting throughout the winter, Kinney said. BANDITS SLAY HEIR Shot When He Laughs at Holdup Men, By United Press CHICAGO, Nov. 26.—E.

NAME WOMAN TO GUIDE JOB RELIEF WORK Mrs. George Cunningham Takes Charge of State Clubs Organization, ASSIGNMENTS GIVEN Each Luncheon Club Group to Have Definite Task in Program. Appointment of Mrs. George Cunningham, wife of the manager of the Claypool hotel, to take charge of the organized club work for unemployment relief throughout the state was announced today by Dr. John Hewitt, secretary of the state unemployment relief commission. Mrs. Cunningham will interest the Indiana State Federation of Women's Clubs and the various luncheon club organizations in definite jobs to be dene in the interest of unemployment relief, Dr. Hewitt declared. Offers of services of the federation. in any capacity, was made in a letter to the Governor from Mrs. Edwin F. Miller, Peru, president.
Surveys to Be Made Women's clubs will make job surveys in the various communities in regard to working women who are not dependent upon their jobs for support. “The club women will be asked to urge married women and girls who have been working for pastime or luxuries to surrender their jobs to unemployed family bread winners, whether men or women,” Dr. Hewitt explained. Mrs. Cunningham will confer with former State Senator William F. Hodges, Gary, district president of the Rotary clubs, to enlist the Rotarians in a program of part-time employment for more men rather than any overtime in industry. The Rotary club men will be asked to take up this matter directly with the large employers in their communities, Hewitt declared. Assignments to Clubs Kiwanians will be asked to foster the employment of Hoosiers in solving unemployment, rather than giving any available jobs to transient laborers. To the Lions Club goes the assignment of trying to discourage employment of several members of a single family in public offices and on public works. This move is to see that public funds thus expended are distributed to as many family pay rolls as possible. Other luncheon clubs will be given similar assignments, until all have some definite job to perform, Hewitt asserted. Jobs Are Being Found George Shumaker of Brazil. Clay county relief chairman, presented a report today showing that of 500 unemployed in the county, nearly half are being provided with jobs. The relief program includes the employment by each full-time worker of one man for two days each, month at $2 a day or two men one day at $2 each on whatever work about homes and property that needs doing, the report stated. Robert M. Feustel, Indiana Insull . utilities chief, reported a SIOO,OOO street railway track job under way now at Ft.

TRACTION PLAN CAUTJONURCED Mayor Asks Careful Study of Insull Proposal. Caution in consideration of the proposed Insull plan for reorganization and rehabilitation of the city’s street railway system was urged by Mayor Reginald H. Sullivan today in a letter to E. Kirk McKinney, works board president and chairman of the mayor's committee weighing the street car plan. “We all are agreed that, adequate, modem, efficient and up-to-date transportation for the city would be of great benefit,” the mayor wrote from his bed in St. Vincent's hospital. “We should endeavor to obtain this objective unless we are compelled to surrender rights of the city and our citizens which, it is most imperative, should be retained.” The Insull plan calls for legislative enactment creating a city utilities commission with broad ..•egulafory powers. The prospect of “dual authority” of the city commission and the public service commission concerns the mayor, he wrote. He indicated he believes the local body should be vested with all the powers now exercised by the public service commission, including authorization of securities. Urging close study of the value of the street railway plant, the mayor closed his letter with the question: “Is the cost-plus system best?” The city hall committee on the Insull plan today wrote letters to promoters of the reorganization requesting them to submit their proposals by Dec. 3, when a date will be set for public hearing.

Mt. Fuji and scores of towns were rocked and a slight tidal wave occurred on Boso peninsula. The quake was the worst experienced in Japan since the disastrous temblor of Sept. 1, 1923. Tokio and Yokohama escaped with slight material damage, chiefly water pipes. No casualties were reported in the two cities. Airplanes Rushed to Area Airplanes were sent into the moutain region to check the casualties and damage. Physicians and Red Cross workers were rushed to the quake area. Landslides caused by the earthquake blocked numerous roads, and several streams in the, mountains overflowed when they were damaged by debris. Lack of crowded population centers in the quake area was believed to have held the loss of life to a minimum. Mountain roads were blocked by landslides, hindering relief work. The Shingenji temple at Yumoto fell in ruins and a priest and two other persons who were worshiping at the time were killed. Foreigners at Miyanoshita. a mountain resort about ninety mile.-? from Yokohama, were reported frightened, but not injured,by th© quake. The Hakone lake district, another region frequented by Japanese and foreigners during the winter, was rocked by the quake. The district is just beyond Miyanoshita, and near the famous Mt. Fuji. Frequented by Foreigners The entire region of today’s quake has been affected by major disasters frequently in recent years. Steam spouts from hot springs beneath the volcanic mountains. Slight tremors are common throughout the entire volcanic area. Landslides add to the danger of living in the moutainous district. Scores of foreigners were in th© Hakone-Miyanoshita region when the 1923 disaster struck Japan. The roadways crumbled beneath them as they fled down the mountain sides. A few lost their lives and many were badly hurt during the recurrent tremors. Miyanoshita and Atami are usually crowded with foreigners during the holiday season. The region'is particularly noted for its beauty and the walk along the mountain ridge which runs along the peninsula affords one of the most remarkable scenic views in the far east. The ocean is visible on either side for much of the way to Atami from Hakone. STORE BURGLAfTgETS THANKSGIVING DINNER Loads New Coupe With Groceries Then Drives Away.
