MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE, MEDFORD, OREGON", FRIDAY, OCTOBER 7, 1932.
Seven Million and Half Un
employed Must Be Cared
for During Coming Cold
Months By .Relief Aides
BERLIN (AP) German govern
ment and organized charitable relief
agencies face prospects that the com
ing cold months will be the father
land's worst pre-war winter.
With an Indicated 7.500,000 unem
ployed among Its 62,000,000 Inhabit
ants, the stress will test truly Ger
many's ability to care for Its Idle.
Despite the best efforts of the gov
ernment, the number of Jobless was
higher this summer than ever before
for that season. The army of un
employed being augmented rapidly as
farms, building companies and other
seasonal Industries release their la
borers. Uncounted Host Idle.
The government register already
shows cne out of every five able
bodied men and women out of work.
How many of the thousands upon
thousands who are not eligible for
government aid are also Idle Is not
known. -
In the six years since 1926 the
number of registered unemployed has
risen from 2,444,000 to 5,694,400. The
ratio of growth has been especially
striking In the big cities, particularly
here In the capital. The Berlin Idle
In 1929, .for example, numbered 47.1
per thousand of population. The In
dex Jumped to 80 the following year.
Today It la 110.7.
The one glimmer of hope is the
preliminary success of the govern
ment scheme for voluntary enlist
ment In labor companies employed
on public works. Since the first of
August 95,000 persons have Joined up
and the total Is expected to be around
200,000 by spring.
In this service the workers receive
their sustenance, working clothes and
dally wages of from 30 to 50 cents.
Some sickness and accident Insur
ance Is also carried for them. They
enlist for 20 weeks but a man can
obtain a release If he gets a real Job.
Whole Nation Charitable.
But the financial burden of car
ing for the destitute is bound to be
huge. Last winter the Welfare lea
gue alone disbursed (24,750,000 in
cash and foodstuffs. Other organized
charities spent an estimated $10,000,
000 and 93,750.000 was added to the
total by reduced prices for coal to the
poor.
These figures, moreover, take no
account of the enormous sums spent
by government agencies or by private
philanthropists who left no record of
their gifts. One of the exceptions to
this latter rule was Max Schmeling,
ex-heavyweight champion, but his
charity serves to Illustrate the size of

Bulk-roasted coffees sometime
disappoint your taste. Their
"let-downs" in flavor are prob
ably due to the roasting. It is
difficult to take big batches, and
always roast every berry alike.
Instead of roasting in bulk,
Hills Bros, use their patented
Controlled Roasting process.
The blend flows through the
roasters in an even, continuous
stream ... a little at a time.
Continuous small quantities assure per
fect roasting for every coffeebcrry J The full
charm of their flavor is developed in every

Hills Bros. Coffee is packed in vacuum
cans, and can't go stale. The vacuum process
of packing coffee is the only method that
fully preserves coffee freshness the air is
removed from the can and kept out. It was
originated by Hills Bros, over thirty years

it will not make poor coffee good, but it
will keep good coffee fresh.

MEXICO FEARFUL
OF AMNESTY FOR
POLITICAL EXILES
Plan Proposed by Minority
in Congress Would Drop
Bars to Many Refugees
Now Living On U. S. Soil
HILLS BROS COFFEE
MEXICO CITT. (P) A general
amnesty bill, permitting all political
exiles to return to Mexico, has been
proposed by the minority - antt-re-
electlpnlst party in congress.
It has aroused denunciatory com'
ment among government party law
makers who predict Its defeat If It
ever gets beyond the debate stage.
Is Sweeping Measure.
The bill would drop the bars for
both military and civilian political
refugees and clear off all charges
pending against them. It would af
fect a number- of former Mexican
leaders In Los Angeles, San Antonio,
El Paso, Phoenix and other cities In
the southwestern states.
A few of these exiles are living off
the spoil of their attempts to over
throw the government. But most of
the former generals, governors and
lesser officials who unsuccessfully
challenged the federal authority, re
working for a living, or looking for
Jobs.
The antl-relect Ion lata have sought
passage of an amnesty law for half
a down years. They regard It chances
ss slightly improved now because the
new president, General Abelardo L.
Rodriguez, has declsred himself with
out rancor against former rebels.
But the president has stated fur
ther that while he agrees in principle
with political amnesty, he thinks each
case should be passed upon Individ
ually. See Strength In Merry
"Alt of the exiles are Mexicans,"
the minority party argues, "This Is
their country and we should not force
them to live abroad. Clemency could
not be regarded as Indicating weak
ness' in the government nor as a
breaking down of revolutionary ideal
ism. Rather It would be looked upon
as a generous gesture and a patriotic
act.
"We therefore call upon the gov
ernment to forget passion and ex
hibit true democracy by offering the
hand of friendship to all."

OF SAILOR'S LIFE
PORTLAND. Oct. 7. (AP) James
Thorsen, school "boy survivor of the
wreck of the Ill-starred steamer Ne
vada, returned to his home In Port
land today, thankful for his narrow
escape from death and eager to re
turn to school.
His one venture as a sailor, he said,
will be his lAst. He and two com
panions were the only ones of the
Nevada's entire crew to be saved when
the steamer plied up on the rocks of
ar. Aleutian Inland. He la a Junior
u; Lincoln high school.
The first of the office help of the
States Steamship company, owners of
the Nevada, to appear for duty this
morning, found a broadly grinning
Fll'plno standing respectfully In the
lobby of the company's headquarters.
Hatless, wearing a huge sweater with
a roll collar that came up to his
ears, his dark, round face broken Into
an Incessant grin, Gonzales Dacanay,
another survivor, and a hero of the
expedition, awaited developments.
Decanay's trip on the Nevada would
have been his third trans-Pacific
voyage. "Nothing to eat," he said.
"I get hungry. Much hungry. No
water. Nothing. And very cold. On
President Madison, (the rescue ship)
oh, very fine." So he described the
wreck and rescue.
And then he added. "Sure, I go
back to sea. I take some time here,
then I sign on. Sea all right, only
sometimes bad."
The third rescued sailor Is Ul In

BOLIVIAN PILOTS
USE NO 'CHUTES'
WASHINGTON' (AP) The army
air corps has found one flying fore
that doesn't agree with Its require
ment of a parachute for every pilot.
Bolivia's atr force, on account of
the rarity of the atmosphere In the
altitudes where It operates, dismisses
the parachute as an Item In each
flier's equipment.
Owing to the rartfied air, the de
scent rate of a parachute is extremely
fast and instances have occurred
where Bolivian fliers received broken
legs and other severe Injuries In
Jumps,
Airplane take-offs and landings are
correspondingly difficult, large fields
being necessary for the long runs.
Many planes have been equipped with
extra size wings Jn an endeavor to
overcome the high altitude handicap.
