WASHINGTON, July 81 W.D =
State department officials were on
something of a hot spot today as
result of Germany's emphatic pro-
test concerning the Communist at
tack on the German flag in New
York harbor last Friday.
Ordinary procedure would call for
a formal apology, or at least an Of
ficial expression of regret. That
would probably close the incident.
The case is complicated by a num-
her of embarrassing angles which
preclude any such simple solution.
Some of these are:
l. The strong feeling in this
country towards the Hitler govern
ment as a result of the oppressive
campaigns against Jews and Cath
olics in Germany. American Cath
olics and Jews would be expected TO
resent any "toadying' by the United
States to the German government
as result of the flag incident.
2. Agitation in and out OF con-
gress for severance of diplomatic
relations with Germany as a result
of the national policies of the Hitler
regime. Some elements would be
glad, apparently, to use the flag
incident as a convenient peg upon
which to hang such action.
3. The thinly yelled dislike of ad-
ministration officials themselves for
the Hitler regime, partly because OF
the religious and racial policies,
and partly because of German
violation of treaty obligations and
discrimination against American

Fit in All Phases.

By the Associated Press.
DOMPTON LAKES. N. j., Sep
- tember l8.-Joe Louis resumed
his training for Max Baer to-
day after two days that were
pleasant for him, but more pleasant
for his sparring mates.
The two days were pleasant for Joe
because he had nothing 10 do, and
the only thing he would rather do
than loaf is sleep.
The days we're pleasant for his
partners because they brought a
temporary armistice from the bombs
that are Joe Louis fists,
Six rounds of boxing we're slated
for the Bomber today. after which
his trainer, Jack Blackburn, planned
to rest him until Saturday. Joe then
will hold his last strenuous workout
before climbing through the ropes Of
the Yankee Stadium ring.
Tosses Base Ball.
I OUIS' exertions yesterday consisted
of tossing base ball around Joe,
an ardent Detroit Tiger fan, would
like to be a catcher on a base ball
team were it not for the fact that the
remuneration Of his present profess
sion is more than satisfactory.
He appears fit physically and
mentally. He weighs 1877 pounds. the
weight at which he expects to enter
the ring. He is confident that Baer
won't be around much longer than
six or seven rounds.

IRON r. G. Thomas at Riverton,

branches Of the Shenandoah
are clear-mighty good news
for bass anglers-and at Harpers Ferry
the Potomac and Shenandoah Rivers
also are clear. Around Washington
the river is in good shape and Piscata-
way Greek and Gunston Cove again
are attracting anglers. Many large
mouth bass are being landed In Gun
ston Cove, according to Capt. Aubrey
Sheppard, the majority of them weigh
ing around pound and a half, with
an occasional FOUNDER.
Reports that the blues have left the
Southwest Middles are absurd. Last
Sunday there were 10 boats on these
grounds, and, Of course, many of them
did not land fish, but many good
catches we're made, the largest total
ing so.

they were whoppers," Vincent Gomez
said upon mis- return from Southwest
Middles. I'VE lost 10 blues and had
three rods broken and some Of our
hooks were Strengthened out by these
fish," he said In his party, headed
by Capt. C. F. Willoughby, we're Mrs.
Gomez, John and Al Rupert and

Louis and James Kousen and family,

Southwest Middles Sunday, but had
difficulty finding the place. The
Kousens have their own boat and,
leaving Clarks wharf, in the Patuxent
River opposite Solomons Island, at

on the eastern side of the bay ana it
was 1870 in the afternoon before they
finally saw the big feet Of fishing
boats On these grounds. Fishing just
one and a half hours, they landed
nine blues, weighing from 5l2 TO 8
pounds. Louis Kousen told US that
one boat fishing just a short distance
behind him was landing blues as fast
as they could be pulled in.
