A fear expressed from the outset
that the cost of goods would get far
out in front of employment and wages
has in so many instances become a
painful reality that leaders of the adj
ministration this week sounded warn
ings of danger ahead.
The Department of Labor reports
that living costs have jumped about
10 per cent during the past two
months.

who has been investigating a milk

Unless the profiteers are curbed at
once, Secretary of Agriculture Henry

that, he declared, would upset the

Peek pointed out that the total cost

BOYCOTT OF HIT
LER GOODS is
GROWING

NEW YORK-(FP) - The world
wide movement for the boycott of all
goods produced by Hitherto Germany
is sweeping onward with growing
force.
The Swedish labor movement, which
controls the government, has accept
ed the suggestion of the Init. Fed
Grafton of Trade Unions and official
ly declared a boycott of all German
made goods. British labor had al
ready taken that stand. 1t is expect
ed that much of European labor will
take the same attitude.
In America, the Jews are taking
the lead in the boycott as they are
expected to do around the world now
that their congress at Geneva has of
ficially gone on record ~favoring the
program. The Assembly of Orthodox
Rabbis has just declared a charem, or
boycott, on Everything manufactured
in Hitler's Germany" Jews are sol
emily asked to refrain from handling
or dealing in raw materials, manufac-
tured goods or anything German"
until "the withdrawal Or repentance of
the Hitler regime in Germany" This
has decided significance because of
the loyalty of the Jews and because
they have been important customers
for German goods.
Reports indicate that the world boy
cot of Hitlerism has steadily cut Ger
man exports and that Nazi business
men are panic-stricken as a result.
