HOOVER PLANS CONFERENCE ON FIVE-DAY PLAN National Parley of Labor and Industry Sought to Provide Jobs. B‘l I inirrl l‘re WASHINGTON, Aug. 2—President Hooker soon will call a national conference of industry and labor to promte more general adoption of th- five-day week, as a means of giving jobs to many nowidle. He accepted the suggestion for a general conference made by Governor John G. Wmant of New Hampshire, sponsor of the “New Hampshire” plan designed to create jobs for 3.000,000 through the fiveday week. Following up a conference Monday night with Winant and other representatives of the New England council. President Hoover will discuss the problem with other groups as a basis for the broad and detailed study to be made by the general conference he will call later.
“Deep Interest” Is Shown Commerce Secretary Lamont and Secretary Doak will make a careful analysis of the New Hamqg shire and numerous other plans sered the administration. President Hoover, Winant said, evinced "deep interest” in the plan whirh New England industry generally approved at a recent conference. Mr. Hoover did not commit himself to this particular solution of the ba ic problem which the United States faces in its millions who want work, but can't get it. The President recently included a shorter work week as part of his nine-point program for economic recovery. Doak said he has found a “growing sentiment” in industry for the five-day week. Predicts Spread of Plan “There is very good prospects of the five-day week principle spreading widely in the near future,” he said. The New Hampshire plan would require co-operation and sacrifice or the part of those now employed. They would go on a five-day week and contribute a large part of their smh days pay to a fund from which other works would be hired. Contributions also would be required from dividends. The New Hampshire plan works out on a proportionate basis. Its aim is a 10 per cent increase in employment. ROPE. AUTO END LIFE Man Steps Into Car With Noose Around Neck and Dies.

SENATE PASSES BILL CHANGING SCHOOL BOARD State Education Committee Rapped for Elementary Education Methods. Blame for “inability of elementary school children to think" was laid at the door of the state board of education today by Senator Alonzo H. Lindley (Rep.) Kingman. Lindley's accusations against Hoosier elementary school efficiency was made in argument in support of his measure to change the state board makeup, passed by a 35 to 9 vote. Under provisions of the bill the board would be reduced from eleven to four members and the state superintendent of public instruction. The members would be appointed by the Governor, one to be a county superintendent, one a city superintendent and two “not connected with school work.” Senator William B. Hoadley (Rep.), Bloomington, called atten-

P. floor leaderr “deliberately” was retarding action on the Allen county salaries cut bill at the orders of John H. Aiken, tax lobbyist, were made in an altercation in the statehouse lobby by Representative Chester Watson 'Dem.), Ft. Wayne. The quarrel was precipitated when a delegation from Allen county of the Hoosier Taxpayers’ Union. Inc., asked why the slash bill had not been acted upon in the senate. “Aiken told me he had it held up by Hartzell because it wanted the state-wide salary slash bill to pass,” Watson, who sponsored the measure, declared. “Hartzell is acting under Aiken’s orders and that’s the reason for the delay. It has been in committee in the senate since last Wednesday and he is to blame.” This w’as denied by Hartzell, w r ho said he held no conversation with Aiken on the subject.

RIVAL PARTIES SEEK DEAL TO CONTROL REICh Efforts Made to Piece Out Ruling Majority in New Parliament. By United Presx BERLIN. Aug. 2.—Efforts to make a deal that would piece together a parliamentary majority in the new reichstag went forward today with all major political factions pleased because the “other fellow’’ did not win control of the government. Reasons for satisfaction in this unusual election w r ere: The right wing, anti-Republican group, were elated because they drove another nail in democracy’s coffin. They hoped it was the final nail. Adolph Hitler's Nazis particularly
were gratified at the dominating popularity which made them the largest party in the new reichstag. although short of a majority. The moderates, notably the Catholic party of ex-Chancellor Heinrich Bruening. rejoiced because the majority of the electorate opposed any Fascist dictatorship and frustrated supremacy of the right wing.

Undoubtedly Chancellor Franz Von Pa pen foresaw the result of the election accuately and hoped lack of leadership in the reichstag would strengthen the rule of his own government.
