THE spectacle of Jewish athlete on the Amer
n lean team-and there always Jews on the
American teams-saluting the swaStika, like that of
a Catholic athlete paying similar respect to the
insignia of the Ku-Klux Klan is picture no artist
paint.
Mr.. Brundage has evnced a gift of diplomacy
which should not be neglected after this Now that
he has obtained the promise of Nazi government
minister, as a sportsman and gentlemen, to refrain
from prosecuting the Jews for this limited time and
IN this limited connection, perhaps he could induce
the biygoat to smell prettier when wet.
There is just trace of doubt, however as to
the worth of this pledge. Colonel Charles A. Lind
bergh relied on the honor of the man who murdered
his child. The man promised to return the baby
Tor $4,000 and didn't. Now the Germans have got

The Star of David Us. the Swastika

ONE detail which Mr.. Brundage does not appear
~ to have gone into in his dealings with the Ger
is the matter of the salute to the coorS which
is traditional rite in all Olympic games In fact,
the athletes spend good deal Of their time swapping
to attention, facing the mast and salutng ore set
another of national colors they are ruin up
the pole in recognition of victories on the field
or in the water. Then. also, there the grand
ceremonalS and salutes to the colors of the nation
which happens to be host to the games both at the
start and at the conclusion of the festival
Tt imposes some strain the imagination to
fancy Americas Jewish athletes Soemnly saluting
the Nazi swastika unless special diSpensaon could
be obtained to permit them to substitute the rasp-
berry or Bronx cheer. In that case, doubt, they
would be glad to salute with great enthusiasm.
Yet, if they do not salute in the formal manner,
German national custom will require that the mob
rush down out of the stands and kick them around
until such time as they be locked up in the
police station. In due to be sure, the Amer
lean consul will get them out and the German gov
eminent will say excuse it please" but by that time
the athletes might not be of much use to the Amer
lean Olympic team. 1t might even be necessary to
bury them.

FIND HORSE STEALING
CARRIES HEAVY TERMS
Vehicle Taking Lesser Charge in
Eighteen States.

By United Press
COLUMBUS. O., Sept. 29.-Horse
theft is punishable in eighteen
states and the District of Columbia
by heavier penalties than the steal
ing of motor cars.
This fact was discovered by the
Ohio bureau of motor vehicles in a
survey of vehicle laws. Ohio's code
has been revised, as have the codes
of twelve other states, to increase
car theft penalties above those of
horse stealing. The law provides
for one to twenty years imprison-
ment for a first offenSe, five to
thirty years for subsequent offenses.
States in which horse stealing is
the more serious crime under the
law are Arkansas, Delaware, Flori-
da, Georgia, Illinois, Indiana, Ken
lucky, Michigan, Montana, New
Hampshire, North Carolina, Okla
homa, Pennsylvania, South Caro-
lima, Utah, Vermont, Virginia and
Washington.
