HOOVER STUDIES NEW PROPOSALS FOR JOB RELIEF Parley of Economic, Labor Leaders May Be Called; Co-Ordination Sought. by PAUL R. MALLON United I'rm Staff Correopondeut WASHINGTON, Aug. 7.—Two further steps for unemployment relief are being studied in President Hoover’s earnest search for execu- j tive methods of relief that can be put in effect before congress meets. A conference of economic and j labor leaders for winter planning ' is one of the proposals. Such a meeting has been demanded by 1 President William Green of the American Federation of Labor. Coordination of local relief work, possibly through the Red Cross and chambers of commerce, is the other. The President already has acted to speed up the government’s construction program and to strengthen the federal employment service. Need Definite Plan Mr. Hoover’s associates have cautioned against the conference proposal at this stage. They believe it would be difficult unless he could offer a definite program for adoption. Efforts to arrange conferences on the coal and railroad situations have failed. It has been suggested, however,! Lhat he might resummon the industrialists who were called to the White House a year and a half ago and seek their views cn what might now be undertaken. At the earlier conference the industrialist leaders agreed to try to maintain wage levels. Decision Delay Seen White House advisers believe the President will delay a decision on the conference for a month or more possibly until the United States Chamber of Commerce concludes its survey of the winter employment outlook. The executive was assured late Monday by Silas Strawn, president of the chamber, and Julius Barnes, chairman of the board, that the report would contain recommendations worth his consideration. The report is now being written by Edward I. Harriman of Boston. Strawn and Barnes came away from the White House with verbal statements to the press that Mr. Hoover is "much alive’’ to the possibility of a serious situation this winter, and preparing to act wherever he can. They said the executive agreed with them that the idea of money relief from the treasury is "simply appalling.”

Eugene V. Brewster and tvs wife, formerly Miss Corliss Palmer, beauty queen.

Millionaire Publisher and Wife File Papers of Bankruptcy. By United Press HOLLYWOOD. Aug. 7 —"Brewster’s millions” are no more, and the Cinderella romance of the former Miss Corliss Palmer of Macon was back today at the point w’here such things supposedly start—the kitchen stove. The former beauty prize winner who married Eugene V. Brewster, then a millionaire publisher, was found cooking breakfast at their small sidestreet cottage. Brewster was to wash the dishes. At the time of their marriage, Brewster was head of a chain of movie magazines, one of which sponsored the beauty contest won by the Macon girl. They later were married in Mexico. Stock losses wiped out their fortune and they sold their Beverly Hills estate. In a bankruptcy petition Brewster listed his assets at SIOO "But we're happy,” Brewster said.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

GERMANY MAY ASK NEW DEAL ON REPARATIONS Berlin Studies Scheme to Abolish Payments at Moratorium End. BY FREDERICK KUH, United Press Staff Correspondent BERLIN, Aug. 7.—Germany would abolish or revise downward—preferably abolish—reparations payments I at the end of the Hoover debts and ; reparations holiday next July. The government was considering anew economic policy today deI signed to convince the world that war reparations should be readjusted at the end of the year’s ! moratorium. It was feared, however, that the policy would be certain to arouse | widespread antagonism abroad. Germany has been forced to borrow heavily since the start of the reparations payment after the j World war in 1918, to make the | major part of transfers to the forI mer allied nations. The nation’s present financial weakness has been ascribed largely to this fact. The question of reparations adjustments has been connected closely with proposals for reduction of various war debts owed to the United States, which are paid by funds received from Germany as reparations. Hence, while the Hoover administration has taken the lead in offering foreign aid to Germany, it was feared Washington would bs j inclined to frown on a scheme for I drastic further reductions or abolition of reparations - payments enj tirely. The new policy also would involve non-repayrnent on schedule of foreign short-term credits. '’'s' *'T WAS just a wreck before my A baby was born.
