NAz|S DISSOLVE
MASONIC LODGES
"ConfessionaI Synod" OIL
SiIeSia Also Is Banned
by Secret Police.
BY the Associated Press.

BERLIN. August 1.-THE long-ex-
pected positive government action
against Free Masonry was taken today
when Wilhelm Frick, minister of the
interior, issued a decree calling for
the immediate dissolution of all the
existing lodges of Free Masonry
throughout the Reich, including the
Saar Territory.
A few hours earlier secret police in
Breslau moved against the Protestant
Church opposition by ordering dis
solved the Confessional Synod" of
Silesia on the ground that 1t had
misled the public.
In the opinion of churchmen, this
action may lead to an open rupture
in the long-smoldering conflict be-
tween church and state arising from
Nazi attempts to dominate the state
supported Protestant churches.
Property Confiscated.
Frick based his order diSsolving the
Masonic lodges on a decree issued by
the late President Won Hindenburg for
safeguarding the people of the state.
He declared that the lodges have in
dulged in "subversive activities" and
ordered the confscation of all the
property of all the lodges.
1t was recalled here that on August
Chancellor Hitler's newspaper, the
Voelkischer Beobachter, announced a
plan for gradual dissolution of the
Masonic order in Germany.
Frick, however, went a step fur
ther in demanding immediate disso-
luton, taking the stand that a num-
ber of the lodges had failed to take
steps for voluntary liquidation.
In connection with the church
difficulty in Silesia, churchmen
pointed out that the Steel Helmet.
veterans organizations, had suffered
attrition by dissolution of its branches
one by one and expressed the opinion
that the same plan might be en-
ployed in an effort to cripple the con-
fessional synod opposition to the Nazi
church movement.
Arrest of Jews Ordered.
Henchmen of Julius Streicher, the
Reich's No. l Jew-hater, were ordered
today to arrest on the spot all Jews
seen in public with German" girls.
Streicher, fresh from his night of
spell-binding before Berlin throngs,
ordered all vendors of his newspaper
who are storm troopers or Schultz
Staffel men to seize all such Jews, or
have them seized.
The "newsies" for Der Stuermer,
violently anti-Semitic journal, also
were commanded to investigate in
their areas and report all "Aryan" do
mestic servants who are working for
Jews.
Likewise they were told to obtain
the names of all Jews intending to
marry "Aryans."
Names to Be Published.
These reports will appear in weekly
issues of the newspaper. with names
and addresses.
Streicher's henchmen have in
creased rapidly with the circulation of

A Senate-H House conference agree.

the compromise Senate banking bill
was regarded in most quarters as
largely a victory for Senator Glass,
Democrat, of Virginia, often critic
of some administration policies.
However. President Roosevelt also
won a point At his insistence,
section of the Senate bill permitting
commercial banks to return within
limits to the business of underwriting
securities was eliminated.
After weeks of negotiation. the
Senate and House conferees unan-
imously agreed late yesterday on a
report which, among other things,
accepted the Senate's proposal for
centralizing control of the Nations
credit in a committee of II members
including five bank representatives.
House Bill More Drastic.
The House had passed a more
drastic bill extending Washington
control over money and credit. Senator
Glass recently pilote6 through the
Senate a measure generally regarded
as more conservative, and the legisla-
ton then went to a Senate House
conference to reconcile the differences
The conference report now will be
submitted TO Senate and House for
ratification. This approval is expected
quickly
One of the major disputes between
the two chambers centered on the
credit control section. The House
with the backing of the Treasury and
Mariner S. EccleS. governor of the
Federal Reserve Board, had voted to
place exclusive control of open market
operations in the Federal Reserve
Board, with bankers having only an
advisory voice.
Under the proposal accepted by the
conferees. the open Market Commit
tee" would be made up of reorgan-
lied Federal Reserve Board of seven
members and five banker represent
ativeS from regional Reserve banks
The bankers each would have a vote
When Glass announced the agree
ment to reporters he was asked;
Who winS?"
With a laugh, he replied: Am I
pleased or am not?"
Under the agreement the bank rep
resentatives on the Open Market Com
mittee will be chosen, one each, from
these regions: l. Boston and New
York; 2, Philadelphia and Cleveland;
3, Richmond, Atlanta and Dallas; 4,
Chicago and st. Louis; S, Kansas
City. Minneapolis and San Francisco.
The committee would seek to con-
troll sharp inflations and defiations in
credit by requiring the IL Reserve
banks to buy and sell Government
bonds in the open market. Pur-
chases direct from the Treasury
would not be permitted.
