WOMEN'S WORK , BIG PROBLEM IN i 1 JOBLESS CRISIS Million Unemployed in Na-; tion, Estimate of U. S. Officials. By United Press WASHINGTON, March 26.—Unemployed women workers, numbering possibly 1,000,000, are being given serious consideration and attention In the present attempt of the government to provide work for every one. Women, through their organizations and individually, are leading in the effort to provide work. The President’s emergency employment committee today made public a report on attempts of women's organizations to use education as a corrective for future depressions and periods of unemployment j —to educate the workers so they j can turn to something else when factories close. Flexibility Great Need Flexibility of workers particularly j is needed among working women, but in more than a score of such efforts now under way, men and women are being trained in pioneer ventures in vocational education. i Working women statistically | housewives are not classified as! workers—made up 370,324 of the j 2,429,062 out of work and looking j for a job last April 1. If unemployment among women j increased as much as it was estimated by Commerce Secretary Lamont to have increased among all workers, the total of jobless women workers increased about two and one-half times since then. New Jobs Are Taught The committee’s resume of vocational training reported cases where factory women, thrown out of work, had to be taught housework so they could take jobs as domestics. Worn, rn in Erie, Pa., are conducting a course in training for such workers. Public schools have adapted their facilities for unemployed in many cities. An Oklahoma city night school for adults reported a total enrollment of 3,600 adults, equally divided between men and women, and ranging from 18 to 60 years, most of whom are said to be attending because of unemployment. Similar reports of expanded educational enrollments came from many cities. CITY WOMAN NOT TO SEEK FORTUNE SHARE Mrs. Cora Clark Decides Against Wendel Will Suit. Legal action by Mrs. Cora Clark, S6Ol Clifton street, to claim a share of the $100,000,000 Wendel estate in New York is not contemplated, according to a statement made by her sister today. Mrs. Clark believes that her great-grandfather was a brother of Miss Ella V. Von E. Wendel’s father, and that a nephew, Frank Wendel of New York, is her first cousin. She believes that separation of the Wendel family, some members going east, others west, resulted in many distant relatives. A cousin, Mrs. Emma Cook, living in Taylorsville; John Wendel of Columbus, Ind.; Alexander Wendel of Jeffersonville, and George Wendel of Hope, are taking legal steps toward proving claims of relationchip. Unless claims of relatives can be maintained, the proceeds of the sale of the Wendel real estate holdings will be scattered among charitable Institutions.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

G. 0. P. NAMES TAMMANY AS ITSJBIG ISSUE Democratic Victory Would Put Gotham Machine in Capitol, Is Claim. By United Press WASHINGTON, March 26.—The Republican national committee intends to fight the 1932 presidential campaign on the issue that a Democratic victory would mean Tammany control of the White House. Remembering the success which attended their emphasis upon Tammany and related issues in the 1928 election, the Republican high command has decided that discussion of the current municipal travail in New York is the best antidote for anticipated Democratic utilization of the depression, unemployment, the unsatisfactory farm situation, and prohibition unrest as campaign ammunition. By making Tammany an issue the Republican believe they can capitalize prohibition sentiment in the west and south without alienating anti-prohibitionists in the populous east. This belief is based on the theory that Tammany is with the liquor traffic in the minds of prohibitionists while many anti-pro-hibitionists object to other features of the New York machine. The Republican national committee built up the Tammany issue with a statement put out under the name of Senator Wesley I. Jones (Rep., Wash.), ostensibly in reply to the accusation of Chairman Jouett Shouse of the Democratic executive committee that the Republicans hope to divert attention from administration failures by emphasizing the New York city scandals. Shouse went no further than to propose that the problem of purifying Tammany should be left to the people of New York.

DOCTORS END COLD QUICK. NOVEL WAY

Many Here Find Hospital Method Ends Colds In a Few Hours — Is Convenient For Home Use Urging the danger of neglecting a cold during pneumonia weather, hospital physicians are recommending home use of a pleasant hospital method. And numbers of Indianapolis people find that it gives almost instant relief—then quickly drives the cold out of one’s system. Miss Mildred Kearne, for example, had neglected a cold until congestion started spreading rapidly. Fearing pneumonia then she called her doctor, who advised double strength doses of Ayer’s Pectoral, a concentrated mixture of wild cherry, terpin-hydrate and other ingredients which have relieved even the most extreme hospital cases. With the first pleasant swallow she felt its comforting, healing' warmth—from her nose passages deep down into her chest. In a few hours that “feverish, grippy” feeling began to disappear; she coughed less and could breathe

1211-DAY TERM GIVEN ACCUSED DRIVER Operator’s License Was Revoked Nine Months Ago for a Year. Sentence of 120 days on the state penal farm and fines totaling $2lO were levied "against Frank Fox, 57, of 1134 Holliday street, today—his punishment for admittedly driving while drunk and failure to obey a court order. Police testified that at Senate and Indiana avenues Wednesday Fox’s car careened along Indiana avenue, skidded, shuddered and then halted abruptly when the wheels folded underneath it. Fox pleaded guilty before Judge Paul C. Wetter on charges of drunkenness, operating while drunk and blind tiger, on which the judgment was given. He also admitted Wetter had ordered his driver’s license revoked for a year on similar charges nine months ago. “Let this be a lesson to those who violate the court’s order,” Wetter said.
