Hoover Orders Public Building of 200 Million Large Part Will Go for River, Har bors End Flood Control To Provide Jobs. Washington, Sept. 9. To reduce unemployment. President Hoover said today he had instructed var ious branches of the government to increase immediate public construc tion activities by an expenditure of almost 200 million dollars. Simultaneously, jt h e president handed to newspaper men a letter from Secretary Mills saying such a sum would be available at once. Mr. Hoover explained that much of the speeding up, made possible under appropriations provided by the Yagner relief bill, will De "largely in the river and harbor, flood control and public building projects which were authorized from two to five years ago." Detailed figures as to which pro jects will be most affected were not available at the executive offices. Mr. Hoover said the actual projects will be announced later by the govern ment d?partments. The now controverted 100 million dollar public fcuilding3 program is scheduled to come from the treasury department on Monday. Comptroller General McCarl has ruled that a 10 per cent slash should be made in thi3 sum, and no public decision yet ha3 been made as to whether this cut should apply to the entire sum or should merely reduce the amount to be spent on individual projects, the money saved to be avail able for additional work3. As for the river and harbor and the flood control projects concerned, Secretary Hurley left the capital this morning to attend "the American Le gion convention in Portland. Ore., and it was indicated at the war de partment that final decision on ap portionment of funds might await hi3 return. World-Herald. See the goods you buy.

Hoover Lends His Support to Winter Relief Will Open Conference on Measures for the Raising of Needed Millions for Relief. Washington. With figures at hand revealing unprecedented relief expenditures even during the sum mer months plans are under way for a nation-wide autumn campaign for funds to tide the destitute over the winter months. President Hoover i3 scheduled to open a one-day national welfare and relief mobilization conference at the White House on Sept. 15 which will meet to discuss the needs confront ing all American communities this fall and to co-ordinate plans for meting these needs. Representatives of 28 national or ganizations will attend. Last year these groups raised over $150,000, 000 for relief purposes. Now these funds are almost exhausted and they are faced with the necessity of rais ing even larger quotas to take care of this winter's needs. Three subjects of vital interest will mark the program first: ways in which states and communities can co-operate in the distribution of the $300,000,000 federal appropria tions for relief; second: the im portance of communities maintain ing well-balanced social service pro grams in the present crisis; third: discussion of special means to strengthen local fund-raising cam paigns, community chests and oth ers, which last year raised upward of $150,000,000 for welfare and re lief purposes. Relief expenditures by public and private agencies held up well above rormal in June, according to reports received by the United States chil- dn n's bureau from 991 relief agen cies in 126 cities, and made public today. The decline from May to June of this year was only one per cent compared with a decline of 6 per cent from May to June, 1931. Relief expenditures increased 91 per cent in June of this year as com pared with the same month of last year for direct and w rok relief was $22,900,285 as compared wiDi $12, 030,581 in June last year. Only one third of this amountlaet year was general relief administered by public departments while the amount of such relief in June, 19 3 2, wa3 $10, 136,031, or nearly half the month's total expenditures for all forms of relief. The number of families aided in June, 1932, as reported by 747 agen cies totaled 793.169 as compared with 811,355 in May. The average grant per family reached by these agen cies in June was $20.89 in compari son with $20.49 in May. DEMOCRATS FOR REPEAL East Point, Conn.

Academies to Play Again Sign a Three-Year Agreement on On Eligibility Rule Clauses To Battle Dzc. 3. New York. Untied States Mili tary and Naval Academies healed a five-year break in one of the oldest of all intercollegiate athletic rival ries, and two great service football elevents will battle again at their own instigation Dec. 3 on Franklin Field, Philadelphia. The weakening hostility cf the two training academies for Uncle Sam's army and navy, all but swept away in two post-season contests between their football teams for charity in 1030 and 1931, was dissipated en tirely as the superintendents of the two schools met in Philadelphia and signed a treaty of peace. The disputed ground upon which they broke in December of 19-7 the three-year QliJIbility rule for gridiron warriors was left as it al ways had been up to the time Navy made it an issue. For three years, at least, each academy will make its own eligibility rules, the plan for which Army held out at the time of $19.50 Inner Spring Mattress $11.95 Reg. $6 new Mattresses, fancy tick, roll edge. . . 3.95 $75 Dectric Sewing Machine 25.00 WE'RE HEADQUARTERS FOR Stoves, Ranges, and Household Supplies o All Hinds 0 Stores, Eeatrcias, Ccal and Wood Heaters, E&nges, Cook Stoves, Iarrdry Steves, Oil Steves, Kataral Gas Langes, Gasoline Eanges.

Can the break. The agreetient signed runs through 1933 and 1934. "Faced with a situation under which post-season football games are repeatedly played very late in the year to the detriment of the academic work of both institutions," said the official statement, "the military and naval academies have decided to ar range a three-year series of athletic contests. The arrangement is made with out change in existing policies under which each institution fixes its own eligibility ruleb but without preju dice to any future position which either academy may take in the mat ter." The statement was signed by Maj.-Gen. William D. Connor, sup erintendent of the military acad emy, and Rear Admiral Thomas C. Hart, head of the naval academy. Thus the two service Fchoola un der political and public pressure al most from the moment of the break for renewal of a football classic that had grown into the most colorful climax of each football season, bur ied a fading disagreement in tho common ground of each t.chool work ing out its eligibility problems as it saw fit.
