JOLIET, Ill., March 21.-(A)-The legislative committee investigating conditions in the Stateville peni- tentiary, which has been the scene of rioting the past week, today turned its attention to two minis- ters of the gospel for further light on the disorder. Rev. George L. Whitmeyer, who resigned as Episcopal chaplain at the older of the two state prisons and who made charges of brutality, against the penitentiary adminis- tration, was summoned to testify. Rev. Eligius S. Weir, Catholic chap- lain at Statevillo, the newer of the two prisons, also was called. He has expressed opinions at variance with those of Mr. Whitmeyer.I Warden Henry C.

Slight Decrease in January Seen; as Favorable Indication by Commerce Secretary. WASHINGTON, Mar. 21.-()--- Encouraged by new data placing the number of unemployed in Jan- uary at 6.050,000 but showing more recent signs of business improve- ment, relief agencies plugged along today in their efforts to keep job- lessness at a minimum. Secretary Lamont estimated that number of persons were out of work, able to work and looking for work the first month of the year. He based ;is figure on two reports simultaneously issued by the census bureau. One gave revised unemployment totals for the 1930 census taken last April as 2,249,062 out of a 122,- 755,056 population. The other was a special January, 1931, unemploy- ment count covering 19 cities with a population of 20,638,981 which showed 1,930,666 hunting work. Both these unemployment totals include only those seeking jobs. Since the special January census was made, Lamont said, there "has been evidence of a slight but un- mistakable improvement in the em- ployment situation." "Information obtained from more than 13,000 manufacturing estab- lishments by the bureau of labor statistics," he said, "reveals a gain of 1.4 per cent in the number of employed during February as com- pared with January. In addition, further evidence of increased em- ploymnient during February is shown by a gain of 7.5 per cent in the volume of wage pay.;ments of these manufacturing establishments, in- dicating a decrease of part-time work and an expansion of opera- ting schedules." IN UNEMLOY! r , LANN ARBOR NEWS-BRIEFS_ RULING EXPECTED IN SALARY FIGHTI Means of remedying the salary controversy, in which eight county officials figure, will probably be made at a meeting of the finance committee of the board of super- visors within a short time, possibly. next week, it was said yesterday. The tangle in the county's finan- cial affairs came up several weeks ago when the finance committee of the board ordered county treasurer' Frank K. Ticknor to withhold the March checks of officials involved. Conferences between local officials and Lansing authorities resulted Friday in a ruling by the atorney- general upholding the legality of the 1907 salaries act and ruling void the change in salaries made in 1928 by the supervisors. However, checks of officials, the sheriff, county clerk, treasurer, register of deeds, undersherilt, deputy sheriffs, .and deputies in county offices, will be based on the figures provided in the 1907 act, Albert J. Rapp, prosecutor, said yesterday. Means of straightening out the difficulty were discussed from every angle with the attorney-general, Rapp said. He indicated that the finance committee would meet next week to discuss the affair.
