HANDS OFF JEWISH
ISSUE, LEAGUE TOLD
Germans, Faced With Ad-
verse Report, Attack Pro-
test of SiIeSian.
Ry the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
GENEVA, May 31.-Confronted with
an unfavorable League of Nations re-
port on the treatment Of Jews in Ger
many, the German representative has
told the League, in diplomatic language.
to keep its hands off the issue.
The Jewish question was considered
by the League Council at yesterdays
meeting. at which a committee of three
jurists was appointed to determine the
status OF Franz Bernheim, author of
the petition which brought the question
before the League.
Herr Bernheim, describing himself
as Jew of German Upper Silesia,
complained that Germany's anti-Jewish
regulations violated the German-Polish
convention which guarantees the life
and liberty of all residents OF Upper
Silesia.
Friedrich Won Keller. German dele
gate, replied that Herr Bernheim was
not of Silesian origin and had no right
to raise the question. Over the Ger
man representatives protest the ques-
jurists.
A report to the Council held that
German measures involved restrictions
which applied only to the Jews and
therefore violated the German-Polish
convention which provides for protec-
ton of minorities.
Although the question of the treat
ment Of the Jews throughout Germany
was not directly before the Council,
many members appealed to the Berlin
government to put an end to anti
Semitic regulations everywhere.
