Two hefty Nazi Brown Shirts saw

The Nazi leaders had passed down
the word to remember that if Win

100000 AT EASTER
CHURCH RITES HERE
Attendance Increase Over
Last Lear, Is Report.

Church attendance in Indianapo-
lis Sunday showed a decided in
crease ever last years Easter serv-
ices, according to estimates today
by DR.. Ernest N. Evans, executive
secretary of the Church Federation.
The attendance in Sunday schools
reached $4,000, while approximately
100000 people were present at vari-
Gus church services throughout the
city, he said.
Attendance at Disciples of Christ
churches totaled about $4,000, Evans
said In the thirty-two Baptist
churches in the city there was an
estimate of $4,000. and Roman
Catholic churches of the city had
an attendance of more than thirty
thousand persons. Exact flures on
church attendance will not be pos
sible for several days. according to
officials.

The one day boycott revealed in
Frankfort, at least, the immense
role Jewish business plays in that
town. The leading shopping streets
we're dead.
The Jewish owners chose to close
their stores rather than be humili-
ated by the offensive yellow placardS
which the Nazi guards were ready
to place upon any establishment
seeking to do business.
1t was a great day for the Nazi
guards The streets were filled with
the troopers, pistols on hip, swag-
gering through the streets. Others
dashed about on motorcycles, on
bicycles and in motor lorries.
Nazi Band Plays
On Goethe PIatz, in the heart of
the town, a Nazi band played Nazi
airs. AS the day wore on. the
streets became crowded with Gu
rious sightseers, out to see what
would happen to the Jewish shops.
Few Jews, however, were to be seen.
The following morning the
Sabbatical quiet was broken by the
booming of Nazi band, which
headed parade of 500 Nazi troop
ers who goose-stepped through the
town. The Swastika flag flew
everywhere.
With the boycott day over, the
next step was the appearance of
pacards announcing certain shops
as racially pure German. Meanwhile,
among the saddest people in Frank
fort, were the hotel keepers. Their
lobbieS were deserted and their
rooms empty.
There were no Jewish and few
foreign travellers. Business already
was in bad way and the war on
Jews has not helped.

visit to Leipzig, one of the great

From grim Snatches of converse
ton between the gangsters while
they drove for more than 300 miles
with their guns leveled on him con-
stantly, Jones said he gathered that
his abductorS we're seasoned rack
eteers and had selected him as a
victim because he was driving an
expensive make of car.
Il had just gotten into my car at
Sixteenth and Pennsylvania streets,
Friday night" said Jones, when
three men suddenly Jumped on the
running board 1t was raining hard
and I could not see their features.
Get into that heck SCAT ord be
damn quick about it,! one of them
said.
Il obeyed. I've often thought if
I ever we're robbed I'd put up a
fight. But there was something SO
menacing and business like about
those three that just did as they
told me.
They took this soft hat and
pulled it down over my eyes. I only
could see the floor of the car and,
occasionally, by feigning sleep or
leaning over a bit, I could catch
glimpse Of the bandits. They all
switched to caps when they start
ed driving.
Jones related how the robbers
once had remarked that they were
passing through Mooresville" He
also recognized hills approaching
Bloomington
South of Bloomington, Jones said
che of the bandits shouted: That's
one of our fleet He's got a big
load"
Further another car followed
close behind Jones automobile, he
said.
The bandits, said Jones. thought
they were being pursued. The driver
who had had a 45-caliber auto
matte. wanted to fire at the car be-
hind. but his companions restrained
him.

inside my trousers. They found that
and s6 in my pocket. They were
disguised because I was carrying a

On the long drive back. the trio
was just as silent. No one said a
word until the car finally stopped
