NEW JERSEY PARTIES HOLD
CONVENTIONSJOMORROW
Prohibition Enforcement One of Big
Issues Confronting Delegates
Trenten, Oct. 3. Preparations are
en feet today in both the Democratic
and Republican State camps for the
conventions hern tomorrow of the re re
pectlve purtles, at which each will
adept a platform en which their can-
t dldates will seek election.
Net the least among these issues, and
In fact, considered by many of the
leaders en both sides, is State prohibi
tion enforcement. It Is expected that
there will bu n struggle in the Repub
lican Convention ns te whether the pres
ent VauNess State enforcement act
shall be indorsed a-, it stands or modi
fied ns te permit trials of violators by
juries as provided in the Velstead net.
An attempt hIse is looked for in the
convention te modify the search and
seizure previsions?, of the VnnN'css art
and te tenu down some of the otle r
alleged drastic previsions of the law.
The New Jersey Anti-Saleen League, It
is known, will unc nil Its influence te
retain the prtent act in full fere- ami
effect and will seik its Indersement at
the convention. It is generally belicvtd
thnt the Democratic party will attack
the act en the ground that it Is un
constitutional nnd unpopular.
It is expected that both conventions
xvlll denounce the Ku Klux KInn. nnd
probably will refer, In their platforms,
te the Irish situation with sympathetic
expressions favorable te home rule or
Independence. Other planks In the plat
forms, it Is expectid will ileal with
housing, tnx reduction, tinoniplewnent,
Sunday amusements, modification or in in

Administration Will Heneflt
If something like what happened nt
Paris happens here, the Administra
tion will be the gainer in presenting its
disinterested effort toward peace and
disarmament te the American people
nud the country will equally gain in
the minds of certnin sections of Eng
lish opinion and in Cliiua by its fair
dealing?.
According te this view, the United
States has everj thing te gain nnd noth
ing te lese from bringing the Far
Eastern situation into the full light of
public ity. The Administration does net
wish any such pressure for disarma
ment nt home as will lead the foreign
Powers te think it will have te limit Its
naval building in any event because
Congress will net give it money for
mere warships. It desires foreign
Powers te feel thnt if armament is net
te be limited, it can stand the race
for increased nrmament better than
nny ether participant in the conference.
The critics of the Administration who
are worrying nheut publicity have little
grounds for their nuxietv of this view,
if the position of the United States Is
maintained throughout the discussions.
Publicity is the essence of the American
program. Naturally, discussions will
have te take place in private, but it
will be desirable that the position of
this ceuutry nnd the resistance it en
counters should be known net enlv by
Its own people, hut by the people of
England and Japan as fully as possible
nud as promptly ns possible.
Ne Trailing Conference
If this weru te be a trading con
ference then secrecy might be expected
But as the Administration cencehes it,
it is net te be a trading conference.
The main object is open discussion un
der circumstances which will promote
mutual understanding.
Fer that reason the suggestion from
Londen that the Fur Eastern question
be dis, usbcil there in advance of the
Washington meeting was rejected. Slti'e
that rejection the English Government
bus unquc-itlenablv held aloof.
The signs of differences among the
three principal Powers alreadv exist.
Japan showed pluiuly from the out
set thnt she did net welcome President
Harding's invitation. Eng and wanted
s'u)i! kind of private uude.'standin te
be arranged in advance, at Londen.
Thus when the gathering assembles
this country will stand somewhat alone.
It is itet assured of support lrem
(Jieat Britain, where the peiicy of close
( o-epeuition with Japan has strong ad
vocates in the foreign office, in the naj
and in the toleniul office.
France and Italy, it U supposed, will
generany support the I'mted States
en Fur Eastern questions and en tin
limitation of nanl armaments. If lmid
dlsuitiiami-nts couie up, then a sharp
question will arise with France oer the
guaruntee of her safety from (ier

U. S. MAY AID IDLE
Fund for Leans for Municipal
Worle In Years of Depres
sion Proposed
EMERGENCY RELIEF BEGINS
Ry llie Associated Press
Washington, Oct. 3. Advisability of
a Federal bend issue te create n fund
for making leans te aid munlclpnl pub
lic works In years of depression when
Jobs are scarce was under consideration
tedny by subcommittee of the Na
tional Conference en Unemployment.
Such a proposal hns been suggested
te the conference ns part of n plan for
pcrmnncnt snfeguardi against bad
venrs for the not'en's werk"rs. Ne on en on
tlmnte of hew mnny millions of dol
lars would be required ter Midi a fund
has been made as yet. The plan con
stitutes ene of the recommendations of
the Conference Advisory Committee.
Leans te municipalities would be
made by the Federal Government under
the plan only upon proof of natlennl
unemployment and Industrial depres
sion, ns shown by industrial nnd vun vun
empleyment stntlstlcs nnd upon proof
of the soundness nnd titllltv of specific
public works proposed. The Interest
rate for leans te municipalities would
be net less thnn that paid by the Fed
eral Government.
Steps have been taken by city offi
cials of Rosten and Cleveland te put
into effect the emergency relief pro
gram adopted Inst week by the confer
ence. Secretary Hoever announced to te
dny. adding that he hnd been informed
unofficially that Portland, Ore., and
Milwaukee were working nleng the snmc
line.
"The next step in the emergency
measures for the unemployed," Mr.
Hoever fnid, "Is definite organization
by the Mayers In the municipalities
where this has net et been done dell
nitcly nnd systematically. The employ
er and business men, the relief asso
ciations, the State and Federal ngen
clcs, cannot surround the problem sys
tematically until the Mayers hnve es
tablished streng1 emergency organiza
tions with the municipalities behind it.
The conference Is anxious te knew what
steps nre taken in the various cities
nnd te have the views of officials for
further comprehensive plans."
Mr. Hoever made public telegram?
from Mayers Fitzgerald, of Cleveland,
nnd Peters, of Rosten, announcing the
formntlen of emergency unemployment
committees. The problem of uncmploy uncmpley
cnt probably will be presented te the
American Rankers' Association nt their
convention this week in Ies Angeles.
Henry N. Robinson, of I.es Angeles,
chairman of the Organization Commit
tee of the conference, has left te attend
the convention, nnd it is expected he
will lay before thp convention the prob
lems and plans new under discussion by
the conference.

Arthur niid James Burns, of Ard Ard

rest for driving nn nute white under
the lnflucnce of liquor nnd then bat

It happened yesterday en Lancaster
plke in Ardmore. The men wcre driv
ing their car in a rather erratic man
ner, .id Traffic Officer Ayler stepped

genr was functioning properly.
The nnswer was the equivalent of
residence In the icnims of fire nnd brim
stone. The pntrelman's reply wns:
"You're under arrest." Further con
versation wns prevented by the Rums'
leaping from .the machine nnd assault
ing the patrolman, he charges.
lie pleaded with them te step, Ayler
says, and when they didn't, he .con
vinced them se thoroughly they should,
that they were treated nt Bryn Mawr
