EFFECT OF NAzI REORGANIZATION
 ON JEWS SECRET
Government Makes No Statement Indicating
 Any New Policy :.

Berlin, July 9. (UP)--on the basis of tho best available informa- ton. it ins nsiinpossible' ct present to define the effect of the Maxi reor- ganizaticn on the position of the Jews, communities and socialists. The government has made no statement indicating any new poli- cy.
 Some quarters expected that the whole purpose of the party purg- ing would be Co get the Nasi move- ment nearer to the people. others, however, believed the bloody week. end would increase the autooratio character of the movement to hold tho popuiation--particularly those sections inclined toward socialism In even closer check.
 Both Hitler and Goering unques- tionably increased their prestige and strength by their decisive ac. ton. Both, son brief occasional ap. pearances In public, were hailed with much moro than tho custom ary enthusiasm.
 As full reports came in the na- ture of tho radical Maxi revolt be. came moro apparent. The report that part of Roehm'a program, if 1t had succeeded, would have been to restore the monarchy Is in direct contradiction to all signs. The United Press correspondent at Munich reported that Roehm's aim was . ''purely socialistie" dictator shiip based no exclusive rule by tho storm troops.

 on Sight of Cop

This hot weather is bad enough think tho members of the police department, without thieves hav- ing to go and complicate 1t by bringing up all sorts of apparently unconnected developments. ono case in particular has the police report book all cluttered up.
 John Sheehy of 6b Walnut ave- nue parked his car in his garage near his home last night and went to sleep the sleep of the just mos torist. Unfeeling thieves, however broke into MT Sheehy's garage and managed to connect the cars sg- hilton wires. They then rode mer- rily on their way.
 Mir Sheehy's car has marker numbers KS-200 and the thieves had no liking for even numbers. Consequently they stopped their ride long enough to discard MT Sheehy's markers and put In thelr place markers numbered kS-15S, which they had stolen from q car parked on Grown street.
 Now that they had . new car, the thieves thought some new clothing would At in quite well, and they drove to the corner of East Main and North Elm streets, where tailor shop occupies tho second floor. The only way to get to the second floor, they found, was to use ladder. Which they did.
 Patrolman Jack Haggerty eame into the picture at that point, saw the ladder. divlned the burglary and scared away the thieves. Tho car was abandoned.
 Today, after mucn untangling, the police gave back MT Sheehy his car and his markers, the Crown street owner his markers, and as- sured the tailor that all was we'll.

By HENRY SUPER United Press Stan Correspondent


 San Francisco. (UP)--Aleatraz Island, Q ponitontiary in San Fran cisco Bay from which 1t Is said thore is no possible escape, will Do taken over July 20 by the dopart- mont of justice. The most despor. ato of this eountry's criminals will be imprisoned there.

 Transfer Preparations
 On Juno 10, seven officers at the Federal Penltontiary annex in Leavenworth, left for San Fran cisco whore they began prepara- tionB for the transfer.

 In the senso that Aleatras iso- latos it's prisoners In much tho same mannor as the French penal colony in the Caribbean, this be- lief Is true.
 But the similarity stops at that point.
 Sanitary Prison
 Department of justice officials say Aleatrag ie sanitary and healthful; the original Devils Is- land is believed to be tho opposite.
 Aleatras has mild weather the year round: the French prison has tropical heat and rains throughout tho year.
 Few persons outside of prisoners and officials ever have eet foot on Aleatrag. San Franeiseans know it Ia a prison that from the shoro looks like q medieval fortress. Swift currents sweep around tho rocky island, Q milo and c half from tho mainland.
 Spanish Fortress
 Spaniards first to use tho Gold on Gate, had fortress on Alea- traz. Prisoners working around tho island continually dig up old gun placements and tho rock is said to Do honeyeombed with tunnels.
 The island, up to now, has been principally used as disciplinary barracks for errlng soldiers of the Pacific division. Out of somo 12- 900 federal prisoners in govern. mont institutions and 6,000 being boarded in state institutions. only the worst will be sent to Aleatraz, it 10 understood.

Crawford Notch, N. H., July ?- (UP)-Hundred-de degree sun beat ing on . sheet of rock is hell on earth" Roy whitmore, 17. of Portland, Me, said today as he recovered painfully from near- tragic experience in mountain climbing.
 For hours and 70 minutes, Whitmors was stranded on stone shelf about a foot wide while att tempting to scale precipitous ledge in the Crawford rock region yesterday. -
 To an amateur, at least, there were not enough chinks and cram nies to permit further ascent. To attempt to retrace ones steps means hurtling into a rock pit be- low,
 Sun -bllstered from the waist dp- ward and dazed by the sizzling rays reflected from the sheen of rock, Whitmore was fearful of falling from his perch when other climbers finally saw him. A rope moose was lowered and he was hauled 100 feet to the crest of the ledge.
 Doctors said it would require a weeks treatment to cure Whit more's sunburn.

 The boards final report was made public today. The report completes the public life of tho board named in answer to wide- spread complaints of MIRA. Clar- ence Darrow, eaustie chairman, has already left Washington.
 The board took oognisanee of some code revisions inaugurated by tho MIRA but maintained that the situation was substantially un- changed.
 Basic charges made by the board were: f...t,
 Codes have enabled powerful in. terests to seixe control of indus tries and to extend q control al- ready established. ,.
 Codes foster monopolies. Small enterprises are oppressed.
 Production and distribution arc hampered by resentment aroused by coercion.
 Elimination of the basic point system of prieo making should Do obtained to stop spread of monop- oly
 Price fixing should be abandon cd.
 Small industry codes "wero inex- eusabel interferenee."
 Codes covered too much ground and wcro too drastic,
 The report pointed out tho gov- ernment had lost thousands of dollars through refusal to allow non.hoiders of Blue Eagle to bid on kovernment business.
 Ford's approval of the MIRA was announced by Johnson but today it seemed that an apparent "feeler" lotter had been sent by the Ford Motor co. Johnso nexpeets this will lead to complete peace.
