BLAMES RICH JEWS FOR STRIKE
OF POOR JEWS

Frances Crane Lille will give
newspapers this afternoon an open
letter to the Jews of Chicago. She
wishes to raise he0point that in the
garment strike now on it is Jew mas
tiers of the clothing trade who won't
arbitrate, won't meet committee of
strikers, won't meet a citizens COM
mittee to talk over the situation, who
are responsible.
The harness bull, the, individual
policeman who loks on while slug
gers batter the faces of. Jew strikers,
is not so much to blame for the vio-
lence of the strike and the failure
of the bosses to arbitrate as the mil
ionaire Jews of the Wholesale
ClOthiers' assn.

that all churches in Chicago take up
the cause of the strikers. Preachers |

GERMANY TO AGREE TO RECALL
OF EMBASSY ATTACHES
Washington, Dec. Germany is

yielding.
This was the belief of officials to-
day causing marked relaxation Of
tension over German-American rela-
tons. Unofficial information reach
ing the state department led the adj
ministration to believe Germany
shortly will agree to the request for
recall of Captains Boyd and Won
Papen, embassy attaches.
1t is now believed Sec'y Lansing's
original statement to Berlin that
Boyd and Won Papen have become
persons non grata because of military
activities will be accepted without
further demand for specifications.
Possible departure of Won Papen
and Boyd before formal announce
ment of their recall is made is report
ed. Negotiations probably will be re-
sumed to secure safe conduct for the
attaches.
