BERLIN PUSHES
WAR ON JEWS

BERLIN, Aug. 2 G.N.SO
Wholesale arrest of members was
reported today after Leipzig po-
lice smashed an alleged anti-mili-
tarist league said to shield large
secret membership of Jews.
The incident was the outstand-
ing one of a series that indicate
no abatement of the anti-Semltlc
drive.
Property COnfiscated
Property of the organization,
known as the "Mazdazan League, .
was confiscated and all gathering
of the membership forbidden.
Police said the league had held
several sessions from July % to
20 during the height of the cam
paign against Jews and Catholics.
Two Jews were arrested in the
Saar, Jacob Levy was arrested
at Ayl on a charge of assaulting
a member of the Hitler group,
and another was detained at
saarburg for allegedly slandering
the state.
These arrests gave rise to the
possibility of an attempt before
the League of Nations to reopen
the question of protecting minori'
ties in the Saar, a problem

plebiscite when Germany prom
ised that Jews would not be
harmed if they proved good

Q,N.SD. With Prince Alexis
Ddivani lying dead after his auto
mobile overturned at IS miles an

Experiments with monkeys have
proved sufficiently successful for
the publicity-shy United States
Public Health Service to an
nounce that research along the

Tested on Monkeys
Officials of the Public Health
Service today warned the public
not to attempt use of what may
ultimately prove an antidote for
the 35-year-old scourge. They
pointed out that experiments thus
far have been made only with
monkeys and that its benefits to
human beings remain to be
proved.
Experiments were conducted by
DR.. Charles Armstrong, interna"

parrot fever and sleeping sick
ness, who twice was in danger Of
death in his battle with microbes,
and DR.. w. T. Harrison, asthma
and hay fever expert who almost
lost his life fighting Malta fever
several years ago.
Announcement of the monkey

CHICAGO, Aug. 2 U.N.SJ.
Vaudeville Zenge, Canton, Mo-.
farmer, who tried to trick police
into thinking he had committed
suicide, was taken into custody
today for questioning concerning
the mutilation murder of DR..

county building for questioning.
At the county building he met
his father, j. Andy Zenge, who
had arrived in Chicago this morn

ton Of the case against his son.
The father made a feeble attempt
to save his !
''NO, that's not my boy" =
Thus he murmured as officers
asked him If their captive was
Vaudeville. A few minutes later,
however, he admitted it was his
son and Vaudeville was taken
away.
Father Near Collapse
The father was on the verge of
collapse after finally admitting
the prisoners identity.
Police regretted that Mrs. Louise
Schaffer Bauer, widowed by the
murder as she was preparing for
her honeymoon, had gone to
Cleveland for the funeral services.
They believed that the sight of
the girl would break down zenge's
tight-lipped silence.
He was questioned by Assist
ant States Attorney Charles S.
Dougherty and Capt. Daniel Gil
bert, chief investigator for the
S ia te's attorneys office. DR..
Harry Hoffman, head Of the Grim.
inal court behavior clinic, also
was present.
Zenge stressed in his fake sui
eide note that he did not believe
himself insane, although he had
been so accused by relatives.
Investigators had expressed
doubts that Zenge had committed
suicide.
The theory that Zenge killed
himself by drowning was based on
the finding of suicide note,
along with his hat and blood
stained coat, in taxi which he
had engaged to drive him to Navy
Pier.
Hoax Suspected
AS Coast Guardsmen combed
the waters of Lake Michigan with
graphing hooks, Supervising
Police Captain John Siege frankly
termed the suicide a hoax. He
said:
"Why should a man wishing
to commit suicide go through
that elaborate rigmarole? He
could have jumped in the river
or ridden to the pier in street
car. He could have shot him
self with a pistol; we know he
had one. I'll believe Zenge is a
suicide when I see the boy"
In the note, addressed to his
father, Zenge told his parent the

UNIFORM DRIVIN CLAWS
NEEDED

One of the greatest barriers to
fair and efficient enforcement of
traffic laws is the lack of uniform
ity in the traffic codes of different
states and towns
AS one traffic authority recently
pointed out, when he drives from
one state to another, he dosen't
have to stop and change hisnickels,
dimes and dollars into other and
different kinds of money; but, if
he wishes to operate his car in ac-
cord with the law, he must at once
revise his driving habits. He leaves
a. state where the maximum speed
allowed is 40--and then must re-
member that now he must hold his
car down to 80. He has been ac-
customede to traffic lights and sign
placed on corners-now they are
streets where he is liable to miss
seeing them together.
Suppose that motor car manu-
facturers pursued the same prac-
tees as many cities and states.
Suppose man who had been driv-
ing the Smith car wanted to trade
it in for the new Jones model, and
discovered that it had adifferent
kind of transmission; required a
different kind of fuel, and present
ed major points of difference in
other respects. Such a policy would
be no more absurd than is the ex-
listing policy of our governmental
units in adopting traffic codes that
are utterly at variance with those
|of town or state 10 miles away.
The Uniform Vehicles Code
land Model Municipal Ordance, pre-
pared by traffic experts, could and
should be adopted by every town
and city. This woull not only give
the motrist a break-it would iN-
mensely expidite the efficiency of
our police and traffic patrol de-
partments, and make an important
contribution to the cause Of high
way safety,

ward a wise policy, tinbermen
We're quoted as saying, and the
keeping Of detachments of soldiers
at convenient points during fire
season was advocated as vast i'm
provement in forest protection over
the system which was forced to de-

the necessary INSTRUMENTATION and
and delay in getting them to a fire.
Forest Service officials point to
the present CCC organization as a
logical evolution of measures to
meet the needs as forcibly felt at
that time. The CCC, they state, is a
demonstration of the advantages of
organized units trained in fire fight
ing and SO located at focal points
that they can be rushed to the fire
line at a moments notice

35th Anniversary
OF Disastrous Fire

Forest service officials are call
ing attention this week to the fact
that just rs years agoI regular ar
my troops were being dispatched
by special train from Vancouver
Barracks and American Lake to
the Butte Falls district of the upper
Rogue River to fight the most dis
astrous onslaught of forest fire
that ever occurred in that part OF
the state. Homesteaders and all
other men available were collected
to battle wall of flame that swept
through the tops consuming every
thing in it's path. The army COM
mander in charge on that occasion
was Charles H. Martin, then major
and now governor Of the state, and
the U. s. Forest Service official de-
tailed to that district was G. j.
Buck, now U. S. Regional Forester
with headquarters in Portland.
Newspapers throughout the coun-
try carried headlines on this fire,
which burned out dozens Of settlers

thousands of acres of valuable tim
Der, Records show that $4,000
acres OF Oregon forest land were
burned that year with nearly bill
lion board feet OF timber. Nearly
a billion feet of timber were burn
ed in the Rogue River District
While this does not approach the
Tillamoek fire of 1888 which con-
sumed IL billion feet of timber on
$4,000 acres,t and was eclipsed by
the terrific Idaho fire Of 1919, it
wanks well up among the DISASTROUS
forest fires of history, according to
the Forest Service.
The use Of soldiers to combat
the serious fires OF 1919 caused
favorable comment from the press
and from individuals and fire pro-
ed a good account of themselves

EDUCATION FOR The FARM.
ERS OF TOMORROW
G. d. ARNOLD, Publisher

The satisfactory solution of a
great many agricultural problems,
In the opinion of Dean Chris l..
Christensen of the College of Agri-
culture, University of Wisconsin,
will be greatly advanced by better
education for farm youth.
Any sound curriculum of study
must be built around social and cul
tural. as we'll as, vocationl interests.
The young farmer must be taught
farm mechanics and engineering,
forestry, the handling of farm in
sects and pests. And he must be
taught, as well, the Importance and
methods of cooperative activity,
which is the greatest social, as well
as economic factor in the life of the
modern American farmer.
The farmers reliance on cooper
alive organizations, Dean Chris
Jensen believes, will steadily in
crease in the future. These organi-
cations, when well-managed and
supported, have proven their worth
they have passed the realm of
theory. They have brought bust
ness technique to northumberland
doing that, in many cases, has brot
order out of chaos
The youth of the farm is its
great hope for the future-and
soundly conceived programs1 de-
signed to eudcate boys and girls in
all the problems they will face as
time passes, will UNNECESSARILY
brighten the long pull outlook for
agriculture.

LUGGAGE DEPENDENT
ON LENGTH OF TRIP
Long Journey Requires Use
of Several Pieces.

Rawhide, pigskin and crocodile
are among the feathers being used
for de luxe luggage. The pieces you
vii choose may sometimes be a
matter of how long you intend to
be away.
If it's to be a long trip, with a
whole wardrobe to be taken along,
there are bags to hold nothing but
shoes, boxes to hold nothing but
hats, and fascinating containers
with bottles and jars in which you
carry your beauty aids.
For those who expect to travel
light" and pack as much as possible
into single piece of luggage, the
wardrobe case is always an ideal
solution. A small overnight bag, that
can be carried in the hand, is not
only a convenience for the very
short trip, but when carried on
longer trips, saves the necessity of
unpacIing a larger bag at every
overnight stop.

for the vacationist to eat his cake
and have it too. For they enable

that there are variety Of light
