CAMP MAT BE SITE OF LAVAL. HOOVER PARLEY President Hopes to Thresh Out Important Matters at Rapidan. BY PAUL R, MALLON, United Prett Staff Correspondent WASHINGTON, Sept. 29.—Presi- , dent Herbert Hoover hopes to thresh out international problems with Premier Pierre Laval of France, in the solitude and informal atmosphere of the presidential camp in the Blue Ridge mountains. Mr. Hoover’s present plan is to take the French premier to Camp Rapidan upon his arrival here three weeks hence. In the brisk October air of two years ago, Prime Minister Ramsay MacDonald and the President sat on a log and discussed methods of eliminating discordant elements in relations between their two countries. They conceived the London disarmament conference and developed a mutual confidence which since has characterized diplomatic negotiations between the two nations. Favors Open Air Parley Authorities here look forward to the French premier's visit as an opportunity to establish a similar mutual understanding with France. Mr. Hoover favors the idea of open air conferences. He conducts much government business at camp during the summer. The President believes the surroundings of nature are more conducive to friendliness than closed chambers. A daily reminder of the success of the MacDonald visit still exists at the camp. One cabin officially has been designated “Ishbel,” in honor of MacDonald’s daughter. Another is called “Premier.” They appear under these titles on all government maps of the property. Laval May Bring Daughter It is understood here that Premier Laval may bring his daughter. If he does, Mr. Hoover will arrange for her entertainment. In accordance with an old custom, they will not be able to stay at the White House; lodgings are being made ready at the French embassy. But at camp there are no customs and traditions to be reckoned with. The only possibility of interference with the camp plan is the weather. Normally the October air here is chilly, but not too cold for comfort. Occasionally there is a rainy spell, and this might interfere with arrangements. Presidential advisers have described Laval as one of the coming men of Europe, a man w r ho may take the place of Briand as the leading French exponent of a policy of co-operation. FRAT HOUSE BURNS Two Injured, 12 Have Narrow Escapes at Dartmouth. By United Press HANOVER, N. H„ Sept. 29.—A Dartmouth student and a guest w-ere injured and twelve other students barely escaped alive early today when a fast-spreading fire enveloped the Sigma Chi fraternity house. The students, nearly trapped in the rooms where they were sleeping, groped their way through smokechoked corridors and down flamelicked stairways in some cas^s. A few of the occupants were obliged to leap from windows. William Lang of Pittsburgh, Pa., was taken to Mary Hitchock Memorial hospital, suffering from a deep cut on his wrist. Ralph Davis of Wellesley Hills, Mass., an overnight guest at the house, suffered burns on the face and hands and also required hospital treatment. Starting in the basement at 6 a. m., apparently from an overheated furnace, the fire raced through the three-story wooden structure before discovered by a fraternity member. POETIC WILL HELD BY COURT TO BE PERFECT Rhythmic Document Leaves “AH” to Auditor's Widow. By United Press ST. LOUIS, Sept. 29.—This is the will that David Laughlin, an auditor for the Missouri Pacific railroad has left: “All my earthly goods I have in store “To my dear wife I leave for evermore; “I freely give, no limit do I fix. “This is my will and she is my executrix. “To serve without bond.” The document is perfectly legal, lawyers say. Negroes Steal Purse and Jewelry Two Negroes, who fled with a purse containing $5.50 and jewelry valued at S2O from the residence of Mrs. Margaret Brickert, 3421 Park avenue, Monday afternoon, are sought today by police. Mrs. Brickert told police one of the Negroes stole the articles from a dining room table.

By United Press 4 OSLO, Norway, Sept. 29.—Enforcement of Norway’s ban on installment buying of many commodities is meeting with little active opposition, authorities told the United Press today. In general, the drive against installment purchasing, held by many to be especially dangerous during the present depression, is aimed at luxuries and articles which depreciate in value greatly during the period of weekly or monthly payments. Ready-made clothes, shoes, glassware, earthenware, cooking utensils, draperies and certain types of furniture are fixed articles on the “forbidden list.”

RAN ON HIRING WOMEN STIRS NEWJOR ISSUE Only Partial Solution of Unemployment Problem, Figures Indicate. By United Press WASHINGTON, Sept. 29. Announcement by the Norfolk & Western Railway Company that it will cease to employ married women after Oct. 1 directed attention today to a different phase of the unemployment problem. The railroad ascribed its change of policy to a desire to alleviate unemployment. A computation based on 1930 census figures shows some 2,700,000 married women employed in the United States, but only about 1,900,000 hold jobs that men naturally would fill. The rest are engaged in domestic and personal service. Relieves Only Portion Latest unemployment estimates place the number of persons out of work at between 6,000,000 and 7,000,000. If all married women now at work were replaced by jobless men there would be a sizeable dent in the ranks of the unemployed, but not nearly all of them would be absorbed. The 1930 census showed a total of 10,778,794 women gainfully employed in agriculture, industry and trades of all sorts. This was 21 per cent of the female population 10 years of age and older. The total number of men gainfully employed was 38,053,795, or 76.2 per cent of the total male population. Working Women Increase The census bureau has not yet counted the number of married women who were working in 1930, but in 1920, 23 per cent of women workers were married. There probably has been a slight increase. The estimate of married women working now was made on a percentage of 25 per cent. Os the total women working, 29.2 per cent, or 3,149,391 were engaged in domestic or personal service. This leaves 7,629,403 in other occupations, divided thus; Agriculture, 913,976; forestry and fishing, 3,249; extrac-
