HOPES To STOP
SPONTANEOUS
. !. CAMPAIGNS
Newspapers Regard Movement
as Drive to Still For
eign Protests

BERLIN. March 20 GN.SO.-
The Nazl party's sweeping eco
nomic boycott against Jews in
Germany was organized to prevent
Spontaneous independent meas
ures which were likely to assume
uncomfortable proportions" Chan
cellor Adolf Hitler told his cabinet
today. He said:
"The boycott had to be or
ganized. We now have the
action in our hands.
"WOrld Jewry should realize
that the Jewish war against
Germany can only hit German
Jews"
The German press generally
hailed the boycott, officially
scheduled to begin at 10 a. m,
Saturday, as defensive meas
ure."
Hope For Early Victory
Various newspapers expressed
hopes that Jewish anti-German
propaganda" in foreign countries
would cease in time to permit the
Nazi party leaders to call off the
boycott before it gets under way
officially.
Commenting on the situation,
the democratic newspaper Boersen
Zeitung charged that foreign
propaganda was causing German
Jews to be affected both at home
and abroad.
In his speech to the Cabinet,
Hitler charged that anti-German
propaganda was continuing in
Great Britain and the United
States despite steps taken by the
government and independent or
ganizations to stem it.
Threatened Split Averted
Meanwhile, the Cabinet sue
ceeded in settling the threatening
dispute between Nazis and the
Steelhelmet, Nationalist Associa-
ton of War Veterans, in the
state of Brunswick. Terms of the
settlement were not made known.
Nazi storm troopers in various
parts of Germany continued their
preliminary measures in anticipa-
ton of the boycott, pasting pla-
cards on the windows of Jewish
shops urging that the places be
boycotted.
The Jews Immediately closed
their places of business, offering
neither resistance nor violence.
Placards posted at Wernigerode
in the Harz Mountain district
read:
Germans! Do not buy from
Jews as long as the boycott and
anti-German atrOcity campaign
abroad continues"
Similar placards were posted
at Dortmund, Beuthen and other
centerS.

SENATE REPORT
To BACK FARM
REL|EE:PLAN
Roosevelt Victories Scored on
Two Test Votes in AgriCuI-
ture Committee

Administration forces scored a
victory today on President Roose-
velt's farm relief plan when the
Senate Agriculture, Committee
voted to report the measure
favorablv leaving nine basic farm
commodities in it.
The commodities affected are
wheat, cotton, corn, oats, cattle,
sheep, hogs, rice, and dairy
products.
Opponents of the bill en-
deavored to remove some of these,
but on two test votes the
Administration won easily.
The Administration apparently
was exerting strong influence on
the committee to keep the bill
intact. On the two votes taken,
the Administration rolled up big
majoriieS.
The first vote came on a mo-
ton by Senator McNary (R0 of
oregon to limit the bills relief
operations to wheat and cotton
as an experiment. 1t was defeat
ed, to 13, with only Senators
Smith CD of South Carolina,
Kendrick (DD of Wyoming, Nor
ris (R.) of Nebraska and Nc
Nary voting for it.
The second vote was on a
motion to exempt cattle and
sheep from the allotment plan.
That was defeated too, to g.
The five voting for it were Smith,
Kendrick, Norris, McNary and
Wheeler CD of Montana.
Adoption Due Today
Then the committee recessed
until this afternoon when it will
take up the various plans for
providing relief. 1t was apparent
though that the Presidents plan
would be approved. Said Smith:
1--WE have only been clearing
the decks on what commodities
we will include in the bill.
From now on we will discuss
just how we will operate"
McNary said:
"The Administration beat us
twice this morning. 1t now
looks as If the bill will be
reported just as the President
wants it reported"
Senator Thomas CD of Okla
homa added:
"It will go through the COM
mittee with very few amend
ments."
