UNEMPLOYMENT REPORTED LESS IN SOUTH, EAST Aid Work on Decrease in Large Industrial Cities, Survey Shows. By Boripps.ffrncard S'ewtpaper Alliance WASHINGTON, April 10.—Reports from the south, southwest and midwest indicated that the national campaign to help the unemployed is slowing down. None of these sections, according to reports from Scripps-Howard newspapers, knows, of course, what further efforts will have to be made later in the year. All, in more or less degree, are benefiting from what appears to be a slight seasonal improvement in business. This is not only furnishing a few more jobs inside, but, also, the warmer weather is providing some more outside work. The Red Cross in Birmingham, an industrial city, is now giving food, fuel and medical aid to about 10,800 persons in 2,400 families. This is a reduction of about 4,400 from the peak of hard times last February. Oklahoma was so heartened last month that it was proposed to discontinue relief work there early in April, but the report from Oklahoma City is that if this is done the distressing situation encountered several months ago soon will return. In Houston, where the census bureau found 10 per cent of the population unemployed last January, things are improving. Somewhat better off than during the winter—which apparently did not bring such widespread distress as elsewhere—Ft. Worth looks for better times, and raort; employment. In the three Ohio cities of Akron, Youngstown and Cincinnati, the pinch of hard times still is felt,

with relief activities still under way. A good deal of money still is being swept in these places to aid the idle. In Akron, still the rubber capital, it is considered unlikely that the city will soon again reach its employment position of 1930, when 50.000 men worked in the shops. Caring for families left in the wake of hard times and Industrial change will cost Akron about $1,000,000 before the year ends, community chest leaders have said. Issuance of charity bonds may have to be resorted to. Cincinnati, too, looks for better times in wanner weather. PREDICT SILVER PARLEY League of Nations Is Expected to Call World Conclave.
