to the employees today, and the negotiations on wage reductions and unemployment will narrow down tomorrow to the weighing of proposals. Daniel Willard, president of the nue and South street with central ized heat appeared imminent yes terday with the report that the Phil, adelphia Steam Company is negotla cause of damages to his merchandise during floods resulting from the damming of the Wingohocking sewer by debris last summer. The Jury's verdict will be appealed from to the Supreme Court. It was an.iounced by Assistant City Solicitor James ting; for the purchase of a large plot i on a proposal substitute Ambas-' sador Charles G. Dawes for Vice President Charles Curtis as his run-; ning mate this year.

Whether or not the President is aware of it, certain members of the Republican National Committee, one of whom was in the President's headquarters organization four years ago. have been sounding out col- rtyan. at the southwest corner of Pine and Tanev streets, west of Twenty-sixth. on which It contemplates the erection of an Immense plant. This company Is now controlled by the Philadelphia Electric Company.

The Aron suit Is the forerunner of scores of similar suits, with claims aggregating many thousands of dollars, which. It is now expected, will be filed by other Logan residents and property owners, as the result of this verdict in what was considered leagues quietly to see what support such a plan might command in the LAWRENCE PIIIPPS Former Republican 8e-natr fram Colorado, wha I mentioned as a possible. tuaoastAT Ambassador at the. Court of Bt. Jsmas.

The proposed site has frontages of national convention In June. The proponents of the plan point out that Vice President Curtis will a test sun. be 72 years old In a few days and PATRICIA PATTERSON Birred from Britlah ataft aa that Ing-llah actreia could bare her "told digger" rela. the Ohio American didn't grlaya whaa ahow "folded up" twe weaka latex. Judge James Barnett, before whom the Aron case was tried, charged the Jury on Friday to eliminate from that General Dawes is nearly five years younger.

It is contended that PHIPPS consideration testimony of the plain A i r-sk Mil ft i r) tiff's witnesses that the sewerage system in the Logan section is inade Mr. Curtis can bring nothing to the ticket which the President himself cannot command, while General i Dawes would Infuse, new blood, add a touch of color arid moisture and perhaps increase business confidence quate.

The further point Is made that ice President Curtis, though appealing to the average voter four I years ago as an "original American," 1 being part Indian, hardly strength The jury apparently upheld the contention of the plaintiff that the damage at Twelfth and Courtland streets last summer was caused by an obstruction in the Wingohockinij sewer at Church lane and Penn streets, about two miles away. This obstruction caused the water to force off man-hole covers and it flowed in larg-: waves down into the Courtland street neighborhood.

Fear Offense to Following The suggestion persists In the face of vigorous objection in party councils on the ground that such action Fletcher Selection Held Unlikely; Ambassador Bliss Mentioned in Rumored Shifts Baltimore and Ohio and leader of the group representing every major railroad In the country, told brotherhood and union delegates why the managements considered It essential that the men accept voluntary 10 per cent, wage cuts for one year. David B. Robertson, head of the Firemen's Brotherhood and leader of the union delegation, had previously offered a programme under which average rail forces would be assured employment for a year, and relief would be extended to those out of work.

Caucuses Planned With the two viewpoints explained, the conference, which Is fully authorized to reach an agreement on the two matters, adjourned this noon to give each side an opportunity to caucus Its membership regarding the suggestions. To men who have worked most of their lives on railroads Sunday offered no obstacle to continuous work and two sessions were planned for tomorrow. Then will begin a general free-for-all discussion of the problems. Most of It is expected to centre on the labor programme with the outcome hinged on the questions of how much will the managements, concede to get Immediate ten per cent, cuts and how little will the men accept without forcing the long legal process necessary to bring about a wage reduction. Legal Steps Started The legal steps toward reductions have already been started and today they brought about a request on the part of the unions that the presidents make sure of a few roads that had been unclear on the subject.

The railroads, on December 20 and 21, filed notice of 15 per cent, wage reductions. Under the Railway act, unions are given 30 days to answer and offer to negotiate. When the present conference was decided on, most of the roads agreed not to take any action on the formal 15 per cent, notices pending the outcome to the negotiations regarding a voluntary cut. Because the conference might not be over when that 30-day period ended, the labor delegates asked that all of the roads make similar stipulations. President Willard promised to make every effort to have the matter cleared up.

Willard refused to make public his plea on behalf of the railroads. Robertson called It a "very fine presentation" of the reasons why the roads felt Justified in asking the reduction touched on the decreased earnings of the. carriers and on the changes In the cost of living. NEW YORK, Jan. 16 fA.

Jan. 1 (A. President Hoover is looking over the diplomatic corps for some of the men lor the nigh vacant posts, but it seems iiKCly that he will turn to a friend in this country to fill the all-important position the Court of St.

James. Serious consideration is being given by the President to Lawrence Phlpps, former Republican Senator from Colorado, for the post at Great Britain being vacated by Ambassador Dawes. While Henry P. Fletcher, of Pennsylvania, a former member of the diplomatic corps, has sought support for the post, his selection is not considered likely, although the President and Mr. Fletcher are close personal friends.

Senator Oddie, Republican, Nevada, today said he had written President Hoover urging appointment of Phlpps. He added a number of others were seeking the appointment. There have been rumors recently of a possible shift of Robert Woods Bliss, Ambassador to Argentina, who is now In the United States, but there was no confirmation.

It consists of parcels formerly owned by Wark As Henderson and Charles Schell, who conducted a coal yard on half of the lot. Title is now held by Lillian M. Maeder for Albert M. Greenfield, who purchased the properties several years ago.

Considerable interest is attached to this location as It, is near the Baltimore and Ohio Railroads proposed new station, which Is to be erected on the site of the present station at Twenty-fourth and Chestnut streets, and other railroad Improvements, and because it is understood the company will negotiate with the railroad to supply the new station with heat. Company Holds 40-Year Franchise Organized in the early part of 1927, with Edward H. Reuss, president, the company was granted a forty-year free franchise. May IS, 1029, for laying underground mains Rnd providing heat from a central plant to clients. Mayor Mackey KlRned an amended ordinance after City Council voted twenty-one to one Ip its favor, Councilman William W.

Roper, of Oermantown, voting the only "Nay." The franchise marked the end of two years' wrangling and the Philadelphia Steam Company was all set to put the project Into execution when negotiations with the Pennsylvania Railroad for lease of Its steam plant Under construction fell through. The original ordinance was held up by Council because of the monopolistic character of the charter which gave the city little In return for the privileges It was asked to grant. After attempts to make the arrangement with the Pennsylvania Railroad failed thfl company set about the work of finding a suitable site for Its own central plant. Financial arrangements had almost been completed when the stock market made Its nose dive carrying the company with it. Interest In Project Revived In spite of the further delay, however, Mr.

Reuss, in February, 1830, denied collapse of the company's plan and announced emphatically that the system would be Installed as soon as compnny engineers and draftsmen completed their plans and selection of a proper site could be made. Now, In view of the selection of the plot on Pine street west of Twenty-sixth and the understanding that work will soon be started on a large plant, which will be the first of several units, lnter- est In the project has again been revived. Out of the central heating plant the company proposes to construct a vast network of pipes radiating to several large properties within the area, which Includes the Art Museum, the Free Library, Commercial Museum and many large office buildings. Recapture Clause in Ordinance Though the ordinance granting the franchise provides no recompense to the city fof this privilege, it contains a recapture clause so that at the end of forty years the city of Philadelphia may acquire the company upon the basis of an appraisal of physical property only. It Is specifically provided that franchise value is not then to be considered.

The original ordinance would have been lor fifty years. When the scheme was first contemplated in 1927 it was said that the initial capitalization of the company was $100,000 and that its ultimate capitalization following Coun-cilmnnic authorization for use of the streets would be $20,000,000. Purchased by Philadelphia Electric Purchase of the Philadelphia Steam Company by the Philadelphia Electric Company was effected sev- eral months ago. The Philadelphia Electric Company, which is controlled by the United Gas Improvement Company, already possessed the exclusive franchise to supply steam i heat in the area east of Broad street to the Delaware River, between Olrard avenue and South street. City Council late last year passed legislation permitting the installation of pipes and conduits under Broad street to Join the two systems, thus completing the link-up that places in one control the steam-heating system from the Delaware to Forty-sixth street, Glrard avenue to South street and Woodland from Textia n'-rtlieHMwarff to the Upper in-r lMfip Vuller and' the Southern Lake r- Borah, Republican insurgent, of Idaho, was Mr.

Curtis' nominator in the Kansas City convention four years ago and praised him as the "best liked" rrian at either end of the Capitol. Senator Borah, at that time a leader in the Hoover camp, is among the Insurgents who now are critically watching the movement for the President's renomination and some of whom are regarded as likely to bolt in any event. Those'who oppose the plan to deny renomination to the Vice President take the view that the movement may become formidable unless headed off, since it originates in a source which, though not in the President's official family. Is high in the party councils. Their opposition Includes the argument that public resentment outside the Vice President's personal following might be aroused In view of the fact that he was permitted to announce his decision not to seek renomination and re-election to the Senate from his home State of Kansas.

It is felt that those who were preparing to suggest a new deal in the Vice Presidency should have talked with Mr. Curtis before his public announcement, which would have given him a chance to take the alternative of running for the Senate There is nothing to Indicate that President Hoover took a hand, one way or the other, when the Vice President made his choice to stand with the national ticket, although not a few Republican leaders held the view that the opposition would have hailed a decision to quit the national ticket as Indicating the Vice President considered Republican prospects better in Kansas than In the Nation at large. Still In Formative Stage While the suggestion of nominating Mr. Dawes for the position he held in the Coolidge Administration has been going the rounds quietly. It Is still regarded as only in the formative stage, and it is not known whether its proponents had planned to consult President Hoover about it for the present, if at all.

At any rate the President's announcement through spokesmen that he will not discuss' personal politics with callers while seeking bi-partisan support for his economic reconstruction plans is believed to foreclose any conversation with him on the subject for some time to come.

Mrs. Whitehurst, a former actress, attracted Nationwide attention in 1924 when she obtained a $125,000 award from the estate of her late husband. Charles E.

Miss Eva Aldridge, a Baltimore policewoman, who aided in giving the destitute mother shelter In a police station for a limited time, said yesterday that neither Mrs. Whitehurst, daughters living in Atlanta and Pittsburgh, nor Mrs. Ulrlch's former husband, Joseph Ulrich, have replied to letters explaining the woman's unfortunate circumstances.

In the monkey house are loud guffaws at their expense, and in the lion house are mighty roars of delight, but the keepers have to grin and bear it. Director C. Emerson Brown announced yesterday the Zoological Garden's fifty employees are to get a 10 per cent, cut in salaries, but the 3500 animals will get full rations throughout the year. "No cuts but the choicest for the animals," said Brown, while the baboon poked the gorilla in the ribs and remarked, in monkey language, "Makes the keepers the goats, doesn't it?" "The animals must be kept in health," said Brown, "despite Council's cutting our usual appropriation to $25,000. Last year we struggled along with a $12,500 reduction and now we have still another $12,500 lopped from our customary $50,000.

But we are hopeful gate receipts will hold up." It is said to cost about $1000 a week to feed the thousands of animals. aaa-e: Moderure to frph nortlie.iKt wiuiia ana partly overt-ant weuther 8udy.
