Remove Danger of Any Collapse of Conference Americans Win Out in Setting Aside Stabilization Dispute Tariff Question Next Up. London. Effort3 of the world eco nomic conference to improve the status of peoples of the world were said by important leaders to have been saved from collapse by clarifica tion of the American plans regard ing the dollar thru an official state ment announcing that currency sta bilization cannot be realized at pres ent. At the same time James M. Cox and James P. Warburg, of the Anier- J i; ifnn prnn n cnffnHtr1 In pntivinrin"'! ! the French and their allies of the European gold bloc that this policy would not lead to an orgy of currency inflation. Expressing satisfaction with this assurance, Georges Bonnet, French finance minister and spokesman for: the gold standard countries, agreed! to the indefinite postponement of the; problem of fixing the relative Value of j tho dollar and the pound sterling. While representatives of hte gold bloc! could not conceal their disappoint ment that fluctuations of the Amer ican and British currencies v. ere not to be definitely limited by an immed iate agreement, their talk of ad journing the conference quickly sub sided. The French, indeed, said that the American statement was a wel come contribution to clarifying the monetary situation. British officials, who had been more sympathetic with the Ameri- lan position from the beginning, al tho anxious to see stabilizing prop3 put under the dollar, said the Am erican declaration was "reasonable." Stabilization Set Aside. Discussions of the contentious is sue of stabilization appeared there fore to have been barred temporarily from conference discussions as a re sult cf the dramatic meeting between Mr. Cox and Mr. Warburg with M. Bonnet, and tho skillful maneuvering of tho conference chairman, Prime Minister MacDonald. Commissions and committees turn ed their attention at once to other problem on which they hope to make immediate progress, namely condi tions of a permanent monetary stand ard, reduction of trade barriers, dis criminatory restrictions on imports, international indebtedness and con trol of production. Having clarified the American stand on stabilization, Cordell Hull, secretary of state, tensed in the reso lution calling for reduction of cus toms duties and excessive barriers to international trade. TRY AT ABDUCTION FAILS St. Paul. Police were told that an attempt was made to kidnap a child from the home cf Mrs. George Carter of St. Paul.

Washington, June 22. A broad beamed policy aimed at spreading work as quickly as possible was set forth today by President Roosevelt's cabinet board in charge of public works. In its third long afternoon confer ence, the cabinet board headed by Secretary Ickes discussed ways cf pushing out over the country the $3,300,000,000 construction fund and set forth basic requisites that pro jects must have in order to be con sidered. Priority was asked for projects on which work can be started at once and completed with reasonable speed over those that would be spread over a relatively long period. "Socially Desirable." Next it ranked: Projects in or near centers of un employment as more desirable than ones "in areas where the problem of unemployment is less acute." Projects "which are integrated with other projects into a significant plan is against those which "are iso lated and unrelated." Two prime requisites written by the board were: "The project should be socially desirable in the sense of contribut ing something of value to the equip ment of the community and should not be a mere makeshift to supply work. Want Woik Quickly. "Xo work should be constructed which would require for its mainte nance or operation an additional out lay by the federal government." Coupled with this declaration of building policy was a labor program designed to get as many to work as possible, with the proviso that all contracts must meet the requirements of the national industrial recovery law for short workirp hours and fair wage scales. To states, cities and counties eager to share in the work billions, the board said: "Application for federal financing Thursday Friday Worsted Suits, custom tailored, only . . $17.23 9 or other aid for proposed projects should not be ru?hed to Washington. They should be withheld until an organization is in existence and functioning which can handle them in an orderly and effective manner." Avoid Capital Jam. To prevent a "hopeless jam" in Washington, the board said there must be wide decentralization, which it proposed to bring about by state administrators to recommend to Washington all nonfederal projects. Units will be set up in Washington to consider tho state projects. All projects and expenditures will be passed upon by the cabinet board, subject to the approval of President Roosevelt. State administrators' names, tho board expects to have ready for sub mission to the chief executive upon his return to the crpital. World Ilerald. IRRIGATORS RESENT DELAY Kearney, Neb. Irrigators in the central Platte valley, from Grand Is land west to North riatte, are ex pressing resentment over delays In promotion of the Sutherland reser voir proposal. In North Platte, proponents of tho project said mere than 700 laborers have signed petitions, addressed to Governor Bryan, urging his interven tion to insure speedy action on the application for federal aid. Similar action, they said, is be ing taken in other sections of tho valley. The irrigators fear, Suther land backers say, that the project is being involved in an entanglement with others of a similar nature, in the making or contemplated. CALLED BACK TO WORK Everett Noble, formerly engaged as a switchman for the Burlington here, who has been in the "pool" during the shrinkage of railroad work, has received the call to go hack to work. Mr. Noble will resume his activities at the Omaha yards of the Burlington. The renewed activity of the rail roads is reflected in all lines of their operations and the increasing traffic: has made necessary the placing back In service of a switch engine at Pacific Junction, where the freight trains passing through that point has made the additional engine nec essary. t Saturday t Y T f f Y T T Specials for BOYS ' Fast color Wash Suits .... 550 Seersucker Pants 920 Kaynee Shirts or Waists. .590 Pajamas, large sizes 790 Gowns, full cut 230 LOOK!
