' One more man whom police said was at the head o‘- the gang along with Martin, is still being sought. Jargaille said his name was on record as Albert Herman Lm-oche or Larocque, the chief said it would "be well for him to report to Pro- vincial Police Headquarters as soon as ible."

ERS IDE BBNFERENBE GETSDBWN rnupnl Looked For At Ses- sions. (C- P- By " ‘ s Special Wire) OTPAWA, Dec. (ls-Launched by Prime Minister Mackenzie King amid expressions from the premiers of all the nine provinces of a deter- mination to approach their difficul- ties ln a spirit of co-operation, the Dominion-Provincial Conference got down to work today on the major problem facing the Dominion-un- employment and relief. Under the chairmanship of Hon- Norman Rogers, Minister of Labor. this committee was the first of the six to report, and its afternoon's de- liberations, according to the official press summary, resulted in agree- ment upon the necessity of separat- ing relief of unemployed from care of-the unemployable. The comrnit- tce will continue tomorrow. The official press summary was, in part, as follows: "It was generally recognized that the distinction between unemployed and unemployable which had tend- ed to become blurred in practice should be rstored and that the problem of relieving those normally indigent and unemployable should be kept separate from the problem of providing work or maintenance for men willing and able to woflr but unable to find it as a result of the prolonged economic depression. "Under normal conditions the first problem, which is chronic, was recognized as a direct responsibility of the municipalities. The other and major problem, which has been greatly magnified under present conditions, is obviously far too seri- ous for them to cope with. Opinions differ as to whether or not respon- sibility for the support of these un- employed but able and willing to work should be borne by the Do- minion and provinces and as to the proportions of which this financial burden could be most equitably divided. “The possibilities of government action resulting in a direct re-em- ployment and in the creation of ec- onomic conditions under which the "extension of employment by private enterprise would once more be profitable would be the subject of further study." Presenting a comprehensive agen- da, embodying the most pressing problems facing the provinces arid the Dominion in common, Mr- Mac- kenzie King declared that while all problems could not be settled at once, many decisions should be reached on matters of vital import- ance.

Dem 9—Bruno Richard Hauptmanirs chances of escaping the eleitric chair were definitely narrowed today when the Supreme Courts-f the United States, in a. one~wurd verdict, fe- fused to review his conviction for the murder of tiny Charles Aug- ustus Lindbergh. Only two‘ avenues remained open to the one-time German army machine gunner. One is an appeal for clemency to the New Jersey Board of Pardons. The second is a. petition for a new trial if frsh evidence can be found. Hauptmanxfs counsel promptly asserted at ‘Trenton, N. J.. that the defence was considering asking for a new trdal on the basis of evi- denoe not yet disclosed. In the death cell there the German him- self received the news quietly. Still asserting his innocence, he was described as smiling when he said: “Well, sorry you couldn't bring me any better news." “I do know that despite every- thing he will come home again," was the verbal reaction of Haupt- menu's wife, Anna.

The conference, held two weeks ago and attended by Ellis Parker, chief of Burlington County detec- tives who is convinced I-lauptmann is innocent, was apparently sur- rounded with as much secrecy as the Governor's nocturnal visit to Hauptmanrfs death house cell Oct. r- q The Governor's announcement gave fresh heart to Hauptmanrfs at- torneys, and sompcd the shock of the U.
