Further Cut Relief
There was also taken up the ques-

was done on the plea that since the

The provisions calling for a two

Average working hours per week in
the cotton goods industry according
to the governments own figures have
been A per week. At the same time

THE CLASS FORCES BEHIND
THE INDUSTRIAL RECOVERY
AIT

Beginning Saturday, the Daily
Worker will run the first of a Sc
ries of articles which will expose
the real meaning of the Indus
trial Recovery Act. These articles,
by Harry Cannes, a member of
the Daily Worker staff, will not
only show the class forces behind
the bill, how the mill will be used
to attack the workers, to smash
their unions, divide Negro and
white, skilled and unskilled, but
will take UP the imperialist policy
nationally and internationally be-
hind the Roosevelt program.
Do not miss these articles, as
they will be thorough analysis
of the bill itself and will show
how it will work in the various in
dustries. The articles will likewise
discuss methods of resistance to
the vast wage-cutting and profit
raising scheme Of Roosevelt.

PEIPING, March 27 (U.H-Frank
Lockhart, United States consul gen.
eral at Tientsin, informed Nelson
T. Johnson, United States minister,
today that Japanese airplanes hao
bombed the American Methodist
mission property at Taotowying. in
side the Great Wall few miles
east of Peiping.
The Reverend Kautto and his
wife, only foreigners in Taotowying,
narrowly escaped.
Kautto, an American, informed
Lockhart that at a. M, on March
"a, an airplane circled the mis-
sion. over which large United
States flags flew, and dropped
bomb within 20 feet of the mission
residence.
1t blew two holes in the COM
pound walls and demolished a
chimney. .ep
A second airplane arrived an hour
later, ne reported, dropping two ad-
ditional bombs which shattered win
dows, damaged the walls of the
mission buildinsg and killed nine
civilian Chinese men, women and
children.
Kautto said Taotowying has no
military significance and indicated
no Chinese troops were in the vii
cinity. He said Japanese military
agents previously had visited the
town and ascertained the nature
and location of the mission.

MOTHER AIDS
YOUNG OFFICER

LONDON, March 81. U.nf-Mrs.
Elsie Beatrice Wright, mother of
Lieut.. Norman Baillie Stewart, was
the first witness today at the re-
sumption of her sons trial on char
ges of betraying British military
secrets.
Mrs. Wright, occasionally glanc-
ing at her Son-who some time ago
changed his name to Baillie-Stew-
art-told the court martial that in
1882, when the lieutenant became
involved in an affair with a Ger
man girl, she gave him an allow
ance of five pounds sterling (about
$17.40 at present exchange) each
month, with an occasional addition
al gift of few pounds.
On cross examination, Mrs.
Wright admitted her son had told
her nothing of his adventures in
Berlin, where, he says, he became
involved with a girl he knew as
Marie Louise" who later sent him
money from the German city.
1T is not natural that he would
tell me- she said
The prosecution charged that for
so pounds the young lieutenant of
one of Britain's crack regiments
betrayed military secrets, and sup
ported its claim with proof that
he had received money from Ger
man source.
Baillie- Stewards defense is that
the money came from the German
girl, whom he had befrienGed and
who thus demonstrated her appre-
citation of his friendship.

GERMANY WILL
PUNISH JEWS
BY ERIC KEYSER
United Press Staff Correspondent


BERLIN, March 27.-Retaliatory
measures against Jews In Germany
were decided on by the Nazi party
today to balance the "atrocity pro-
paganda" being circulated in for
eign countries.
The government, 1t was under
stood, is prepared to countenance
retaliation in the exact ratio to the
extent foreign governments coun-
tenance the atrocity propaganda.
Retaliation will take the form OF
a boycott of Jewish goods and
shops, a sharp reduction of the num-
Der of Jewish students permitted at
German universities, and curtail-
ment of the licenses granted to
practicing Jewish physicians and
lawyers. The licenses would be linn
tied to the proportion of the Jews
to the German population, which
is less than one per cent.
The campaign will be encouraged
by mass meetings and newspaper
articles which will keep the anti
Semitism question alive.
It will be put into effect as soon
as possible. Reports from Munich
indicated special campaign commit
tees would be formed tomorrow to
start a wave of propaganda ito
enlightened the nation about the
facts of the role the Jews play in
Germany"

IDEAS ON JEWISH ATROCITIES

picable what was holy to the Ger
mans.
what happens now is the re-
suit of Jewish Goddess propaganda.
''The Jews are less than one per
cent of the German population. 1
am convinced they acted extreme
ly unwisely in spreading atrocity
lies. The fact remains that not
single Jew has been killed"
DR.. Hanfstaengl was asked for
his statement by the United Press
in the course of a canvass of well
informed sources among the Nazi
(Hitlerite) followers as well as au-
thoritative, neutral opinion as to
the cause, extent and purpose of
the anti-Jewisn activities in Ger
many.
The result indicated that the
movement was essentially politici-
cal and racial.
Nazis charged that the Jews were
mostly Communists and Socialists.
They pointed to hundreds of in
stances where Jewish homes were
raided and Communist propaganda
and sometimes weapons were found.
Before the war Jews were BAN
ned from holding influential Off
cial position, but they rode into Of

Anti-Semitism IS racial insofar

and personal interests above Ger
man nationalism, and maintaining
active international dolidarity with
Jews living beyond the frontiers.

BERLIN, March 27.-Ousting of
Jews from influential positions in
Germany will be continued until
the house is cleaned" but not by
means of pogrom, Dr. Ernst Han
fstaengl, chief Of the foreign press
section of Chancellor Hitler's or
ganization, said in statement to
the United Press today.
IF we had wanted to conduct a
pogrom against the Jews 1t would
have all been over now" he said.
1.-The Jews who already have been
,ousted were put out because they
were morally and politically un-
fit to safeguard German interests"
Asked the basis of the current
wave of anti-Semitism in Germany,
DR.. Hanfstaengl said:
In the last IA years JeWry has
achieved positions of influence
which it has grossly misused moral
ly, financially and politically IN an
unheard of manner, with the re-
suit that the German people have
crumbled morally, financially and
politically.
1.-The same Jewry now is seeking
to smirch Germany's renaissance.
"Anti-Semitism is not based on
strictly religious ground and is not
directed against the Jewish faith
as such. However, all German
Christians resent and denounce the
fact that the Jews have been the
chief advocates of Atheism, They
have influenced the workers chill
dren through Communist youth Or
ganizations, of which they are the
leading spirit, to abstain from di-
vine service in Christian schools.

have destroyed and rendered des-
