0 evangelical bishop of Germany,
Jared up violently in the Brandenburg
Provincial Synod today when a Nad
motion prevailed asking the general

The vote on the motion was 1872 to
q. The general synod will convene
sbon. Pastors, deacons and other
church officers would be affected by the
measure.
Adoption Of this motion by the gen
eral synod would mean, for example,
that an Aryan pastor, who married q
Christian girl whose grandmother was
Jewish, would be deemed unfit to preach
the gospel In Germany.
Pastor jacob, on behalf of the nom

luton pledging the Zionist movement
not to remain silent until the deprival
of rights and the indignity to German
Jews comes to an end" crystallized
sentiment at the Eighteenth World
Zionist Congress today against anti
Jewish acts In Germany.
A resolution calling for world wide
fight against Hitlerism and indors1ng an

problem.
Disorders Break Out.
Disorders broke out last night in the
lounge of the hall Of the Praha City
Council, where the congress IS in ses-
sion, when an unidentified person
showed the wife of Vladimar Jabotin-
sky. revisionist leader, as the couple
chatted. The revisionists are the right
wing militant Zionists.
Immediately all those in the lounge
divided into two camps. The two
groups clashed as shouts in praise and
abuse of Jabotinsky were raised. Police
soon restored order and locked the gates
of the lounge after clearing it.
The disorder did not penetrate to
the congress hall, where the night ses-
sion had got under way after many
delays.
An appeal for relaxation OF Ameri-
can immigration laws because Of the
German situation was made by DR.. Ar
thur Ruppin, agricultural and COLOMBIA
ton expert for the Jewish agency for
Palestine. He also asked that at least
$4,000 German Jews be placed in coun-
tries other than Palestine by the League
OF Nations.

DR.. Nahum Sokolow. president OF the
world Zionist organization, said that
the necessity for the creation of Jew
ish national home was demonstrated by
'the fate of the German Jews" He
called for an energetic. emphatic pro-
test" against German anti-Semitism:
A belief that the Roosevelt admins
tration would actually improve the eco
nomic situation was expressed by DR..
Ruppin during discussion of the possi-
bility of Americas absorbing 100000
German jews over a period of several
years within the existing immigration
quotas.

MANUSCRIPT OF
 WALTER SCOTT | IS RETURNED
It Was Stolen From Burg lar Proof Vault Last October and Is Mysteri. OusIy Returned

New York, April 1s-(UP)-The perplexing and sensational disap- pearance of a precious Sir Walter Scott manuscript from a supposed- ly burglar-proof case last october became a still greater mystery when the document was returned with no questions asked"
 The l1and-written manuscript of "Guy Mannering" was returned to the Morgan library, from which it had been taken while exhibited in brilliantly lighted, carefully guarded glass case during the Scott centenary celebration at Columbia university. It was part of a col lection presented the library by J. P. Morgan. by Roger Howson, librarian at Co., lumbia university. He expressed himself as mystifiedua recovery 9f the valuable document.
 Mise Bella D'Acosta Greegs, di- rector of the $S.500,000 Morgan library could shed but little light on the mystery.
 "The manuscript was returned in perfect condition last Friday. she said. we are glad 1t came back and no questions asked"
 A $500 reward had been offered for the 200 page document valued by collectors at $15,000. Albert R. Lee & company, insurers of the library, said the reward had not been paid.
 '"The return was very myster- ious," a spokesman added.

WATER. SUPPLIES CHECKED
 IN CONNECTICUT
Periodically Subjected to Three Different Tests to Confirm Purity of Re- servOirS and Vicinity

All water coming from Connecti- cuts public water supplies is triple checked to insure it's purity, the health authorities requiring three separate proofs of this purity be- fore sanction is given for it's con- tinued use for public consumption. Samples of water taken from all supplies must pass the tests. of 8 bacteriologica1 examination, a chemical examination and 8, sani- tary survey. The results of these are the basis for deciding whether water is safe or unsafe.
 Although one might get the fm- pression that the meteorological and chemical examinations were most important in deciding upon the safety of a water supply, such is not the case. These laboratory examinations tell the story of the past and present, whether the wa- ter has been and Is now polluted. The sanitary survey, which is physical inspection of the source of the water, it's surroundings and the location of any possible sources of pollution, Is the third and most important check, since 1t shows the probable future of the supply and its purity. All three are neces- sary to bring out all evidence con- corning the supply. however.
 The meteorological and chemi- cal examination of all water SUD- plies in the state take place pe- riodically. Samples are collected in special containers and sent to the laboratories of the State De- partment of Health for g. detailed investigation of their purity. The meteorological examination fur nishes an index of the presence and degree of any active pollution, while the chemical test furnishes information regarding the source and age of the pollution. The sani- tary surveys of each reservoir and watershed are made usually about once a year. The surveys are greatly aided by the laboratory results and the three types of ex- aminatlons taken as whole are of inestimable value in keeping Connecticut's water supply pure.

 ON TAXATION
Principal Speaker Before the Rotary Club at
 The Elton To-day
DEFENDS EDUCATION

Taxes on real estate are too high, stated Daniel T. Harrington, Jr., of the Non Partisan Citizens Union. in his address this noon be- fore the Rotary Club at the Hotel Elton. Cities have increased ex- penses and in a time like this 1t is hard to retrench. It is almost im- possible to fire a policeman or fire man, unless he is found inebriated while on duty. That eliminates one method of reducing expenses.
 Education in Waterbury costs the city about two million dollars. It has built up good will for itself in which the average man says taxes must be reduced, but don't interfere with education. In mak- ing the organization non-partisan 1t is necessary to have city officials cooperate with us.
 Mortgage interest, added the speaker, in my opinion, will be re- duced. One bank has already done so and you can expect another soon. The cost of electricity and gas has been reduced and our com mittee on this is working at pres ent on what may result in gas and utility rates reductions.

Mysterious Order
 Gave Shah Power
Army Bulletin Founded New Line-Romance Follows
 Posting

The monarch in fact already was Riza Khan, who in 1923 became Premier and in December, 1925. became Shah, being crowned some months later. There was a mo- ment in 1923 when he could havo become Persia's first president, as Renal Pasha had in Turkey. But he decided that his country was not ready. Wherefore he founded 6 new dynasty.
 Riza Shah Is ono of the few absolute monarch left. The mem- bers of tho Medjles, presumably elected, are in fact hand-picked. He sees the list of candidates" and scratches out the names of those he doesn't approve.
 For those who want to western ize Persia the Shah has been not only a leader but symbol. As he said in his interview, he does not wish to impose European culture on his people; he merely wants to adapt modern technique and vest ern civilization to Persia's uses. That, in substance, is the attitude of every intelligent modern young man in Persia.
 The fate of Amanullah In Ar ghanistan has been restraining influence on Riza Shah and na- tionalist enthusiasms generally. It served as a signal that @ back ward Moslem country could not be westernized overnight. He realizes that his population needs more time to assimilatc the innovations. Yet the imprint of his ideas is legible everywhere. In tho west ern clothes and tho "pahlevi" hat imposed by law on all men. In the system elementary and higher education being gradually extend ed everywhere. In obligatory mili- tary service for all young men. which is not only providing an army but molding Q consciousness of national unity.
 Rixa shah doubtless will be ranked by history with Kemal Pasha and other eastern leaders whose role it Is to bring Asia into the orbit of the industrial age.

|KIDNAP RING E
 MIXED IN JAKE THE BARBER CASE
Six Members of Old Ca- pOne Gang Gave That Information to Police of Chicago
By ROBERT T. LoUGHRAN

Copyright 1893 by United Press) Chicago. April IS. - (UP)-A kidnap ring which has terrorized the corn belt in recent months was hunted today in connection with 19, son of John (Jake tho Barber) Factor, whose promotional exploits won international attention. | Authorities acted on information obtained from six members of the old Capone gang, whom offlcerssbe- lieved Factor had called upon as intermediates.
 The Factor youth has been held since Wednesday night by abduc- tors who ask $50,0O0 ransom. Roundup of the kidnap ring which has been operating in south ern Illinois and Iowa was ordered on information obtained from the six gangsters, who were seized in a surprise raid in a room at the Con- gress hotel.
 Police said the men admitted they were aiding Factor in an ef- fort to get back his son. When police entered the room the group was studying a Rogue's gallery photograph from the Des Moines police department. It pictured three suspected members of the kidnap ring.
 Sam Hunt, old Capone leader who gained fame for carrying a sawed of shotgun in golf bag. headed the six men arrested. The others were Tony Accardo, West Side leader, Michael Spranza, Louis Cramer, Edward Guida and Louis Romano, South Side gang chief.
 The photograph which the "gang detective agency" was studying pictured Ted Patterson, Archie Brown and Joe Varsalona. Varsa- Iona was one of nine men arraigned yesterday at Peoria on kidnap charges. The other two are known to be his associates.
 The Corn Belt kidnap ring has abducted at least half dozen vic- tims in the past year. Police said they preyed especially upon gang sters, gamblers, racketeers and others whose occupation made 1t unlikely that police would be called in on the case.
 Factors status--he has been fighting extradition to England on charges of fraud growing out of his promotions there-made him a likely victim, officers said.
 Factor, meantime, issued 9 fran tic plea to the kidnapers to com municate with him through his

Police Chief John A.

 Chief Adamson said the accused had removed his undershirt, tied it securely around his neck and was attempting to afflx 1t to the upper part of his bunk when the chief entered the cell.
 This incident happened the night of last March 27th, a short time af- ter Stanovich had been arrested by three Naugatuck policemen. The men, James Fenton, Martin Gar rick and George Froelich, all of the borough police department, were also, witnesses to-day.
 They said they went to Stano- vich's home on. March 27th in an- swer to a summons that there was trouble at the house. When they went up to the bedroom of the accused ,Garrick was the first to

Boston, April 18.-(UP)-The condition of Judge Webster Thayer, sacco -vanzetti trial justice believed near death, is directly or at least indirectly" traceab1e to shock suf- fered when his Worcester home was bombed last September. his doctor told the United Press to- day.
 The bombing was attributed to sympathizers Of the communists, Nicola Sacco and Bartolomeo Van- zetti who were executed here in 1927. seven years after being con- victed of a double murder. After spending 45 minutes at-the | bedside of the 75-year old jurist this morning, the attending physi- cina, Dr A. Everett Austin said: "It is very doubtful if Judge
 Thayer will survive the day. His temperature is 103 and pulse 150. He is unconscious. He Is suffering from a cerebral embolism."
 'Is Judge Thayer's condition due
 to the bombing?" the doctor was Il asked.
 l Certainly" he replied. l 'Ts that the direct cause?" "Well, indirectly at least." said Dr. Austin.
 So alarming was the veteran justices condition that his wife, Bertha, who was injured by the bomb, and his son and daughter in-law, MT and Mrs H. W. Thayer, remained at the bedside.
 Doctors dared not transfer the judge from the University Club, where he was stricken Friday, to a hospital, so delicate was his con- dition. Two nurses were in attend ance.
 Apparently fearful that the per- petrators of the bombing might make fresh attempt upon his life as he lay unconscious in his sick bed, authorities today assigned

 Stanovich was later captured by the officers as he came around to the front of the house from the rear.
 When Stanovich was originally arraigned there was question as to his sanity and an examination was ordered by Judge John Rich ards Booth. Dr. Max Mailhouse, noted alienist, reported to States Attorney Lawrence l.. Lewis yes- terday that from his test, Stano- vich was not now insane, although the doctor could not tell what his condition was on the night of the shooting.
 States Attorney Lewis then pre- sented Stanovich for trial this morning. The case will probably be finished today.
