HITLER AGAIN
ATTACKED ON
HOUSE Fl
'Madman' of Germany
Is Bitterly Assailed
During Debate On
Trade Pact

WASHINGTON, July 25.(P]-In
"a blast on the house floor against
anti-religious activities in Germany.
Representatives Dickstein D-NY)
Thursday called Adolph Hitler "this
mailman of Germany" and accused
him of STOPPING ito cold-blooded
murder"
Immediately Representative Blan-
ton D-Tex) admonished that Amer
lea should mind its own business"
He said the state department was
the only agency designated by the
constitution ito handle our business
with foreign countries" and that
Dickstein had 10 authority to call
Hitler a mailman, even II It were
justified.
> Wants Iron Bound Pact
Preliminary negotiations looking
toward a reciprocal trade agreement
between this country and Germany
served to touch off Dickstein's at
tao. Such agreement. he said, should
contain an "iron-bound provision"
protecting the rights of American
citizens in Germany, regardless Of
their religion or racial origin.
Dickstein also contended the pro-
pissed pact should insist that the
German government undertake TO
prevent the sending Of all kinds Of
nazi propaganda into the United
States.
Il want the foreign governments
of the world to understand" Blan-
ton replied, that the gentleman
from New york speaks without au-
thority on this floor. He has no
right to castigate the ruler Of any
foreign country, no matter how much
he doesn't like him"
Blanton Satisfied
Blanton argued that when other
countHes keep their paws out of
this country, we should be satisfied"
II Just want to c4l to the atten-
ton OF this house" Dickstein reared,
'that the present dictator Of the
reich, Adolph Hitler, Is not making
any agreements to which Germany
is a party unless his country gets the
lions share Ct the proposed bene-
fits"
He said Hitler 'shas even stopped
TO cold-blooded murder In his self
appointed task Of enforcing upon
the people Of Germany his OWL
absolute control OF the affairs OF
state, the affairs OF religion. the
affairs Of all internal matters, and
the affairs Of matters relating to for
eign trade"

and Stremlau are unable to sit with
their democratic colleagues.
During the regular 1885 session.
it will be remembered, Representa-
tive Thoms succeeded in blocking
Governor Cross's relief and capital
outlay program. He did so by
blocking a motion to suspend the
rules on the governors recon-
mendations in the closing days of
the legislature and, therefore, pre-
vented passage of the legislation.
He was aided by the socialists and
a couple or republicans in getting
two more votes than the one-third
necessary to block the suspension
of the rules. He may be able to do
SO again If the governors program
does not meet with his approval.
Definite Program
The governor said several days
ago that he was in hopes OF an
agreement among the republican.
democratic and socialist parties on
a program for the special session.
After Representative Thoms' re-
turn to the city on Monday, there
fore, it Is believed likely that he
will be asked for his opinion on
relief plans.

participating either here or at the
Olympic Games If they are better
than other candidates"
He admitted, however, that there
were many restrictions which
might prevent "non-Aryans'' from
qualifying.
One restriction calculated indi-
rectly to prevent Jews qualifying
for Olympic trials, Fischer said,
was that only "Aryans'' receive
sports training through Nazi or
CARNATIONS such as the labor corps,
military service and students cor
porations.
Girl Champion Is Out
Exclusion of Jews from the
games follows the revelation that
Greta Bergman, Jewish girl high
jump champion of Wuerttemberg
State, Germany, was not permitted
to compete in the recent German
field championships, regarded as
an important pre-trial Olympic
event. In her case the reason was
given that she as a Jewess was not
permitted to belong to the official
athletic association.
The present games are regarded
by sports experts as likely to re-
veal much new material for the
1895 Olympics, which are to be
held at Berlin and in which Ger
man has promised not to dtscrim-
mate against Jews, German or for
eign.
Olympic President Silent
Count Baillet-Latour, president
o fthe International olympic COM
mittee, here for the games, refused
to discuss reports that some mem
bers Of the committee opposed

Jews were Disseminated against.
He said, however, that to has
knowledge no member officially or
otherwise had given notification of
such opposition.

other nations have strong repre-

PRISONER
Youth Found Hiding Under
Flooring of Church; Re-
turned to Cheshire

Thre OF Waterbury's stalwart de-
tectives went to church yesterday
afternoon and remained for three
hourB--not because they suddenly
had become stricken with relig-
ious bent-but to capture a youth
wanted by reformatory officials at
Cheshire for violating his parole.
The youth, Newton Leas, 10, of
514 Raymond street. had been
sought for several months, after he
had left farm at Moosup where
he had ben paroied by the reform
atory.
The Waterbury detectives, Jack
Calvin, Jack Leary and Connie
Shanahan, learned through the
mysterious channels that detectives
appear to learn such things, that
the youth was in the vicinity OF
the southern section of the city.
They took trip down and learn
ed further that he had ben seen in
the vicinity Of South Federated
church. So the detectives went to
church. They searched high and
low and low high, but nary a sign
Of the lad did they see. They re-
peated the search again, going
over the property more thoroughly.
Still no sign Of the youth.
After about two hours Of search
ing in the church, its grounds, it's
cellar, adjoining property and other
sites that might be secreting the
lad, the detectives learned the
church recently had an addition
cOnstructed--but that no cellar had

Sentiment Tested On
Special Session Plan
Minority Leader Thonls Expected to Express Opinion
on Proposal Definite Program Necessary

Representative John ID. Thoms is
t4pected to be questioned follow
ing his return from Maine on Mon
dny regarding his attitude towards
the calling of special session OF
the legislature by Governor Wilbur
i. Cross for the purpose of supply
ing some form of assistance to the
cities, towns and boroughs OF Con-
necticut that are overburdenoeo
with relief expenses. Representa-
tive Thoms is minority leader OF the
house. To date the legislative lead
ers are being careful not to commit
themselves.
Democrats face great problem
IL the legislative session is called
but at the same time will be in
position to place full responsibility
for any relief plan that might be
adopted on the shoulders of the re-
publicans. While they had more
votes than either the democrats or
socialists in the regular 1885 ses-
sion OF the senate such will not be
the case II Governor Cross calls
special meeting. Democratic Sena-
tors Matthew A. Daily of New Ha-
ven and Julius Stremlau of Mer-
iden will not be eligible to sit In the
supper body at special meeting, 1t
ID believed. Both are now connect
ed with the WPA.
Precedent
The state constitution bars from
membership in the legislature any
person holding any office under
authority of the United States.
The wPA jobs are federal ones.
Superior Court Judge P. B. O'Sulli-
van found it necessary to resign
from the 1917 senate when he ac-
cepted a commission In the navy
