Jews in Saar No Longer
Have ANY Protection

FULL sovereignty over the Saar is
L now possessed by Germany. The SUI
preme tribunal which was left there
for year after the government was
turned over to the reich January 13.
1885, has been dissolved. It's function
was to protect Jews. political refugees
and others who feared reprisals. and
now they have no protection, for the
year has expired during which the Ger
man government promised there should
be no discrimination ION account of
race, religion or language"
The Nazi governor of the coal basin
already has said in public speeches
that soon after this assurance lapsed
1.-The Saar will become the most Jew
less part of Germany"
During the winter Olympic games
the campaign against Jews in Germany
was practically suspended in order
not to offend foreign visitors. 1t has
now been resumed with vigor.

Since the strike affected not only
Office buildings but innumerable apart

Japan Military Revolt
Ends in Failure

Japan was calming down after the
- amazing revolt and attempted coup
d. etat of a thousand soldiers led by
a group of young fascist officers who
thought the Okada government was
hampering the military progress Of the
nation. So far as can be judged at this
distance, the net results of the upris-
Ing were: Admiral Viscount Makoto
Saito, former premier and lord keeper
of the privy seal; Korekiyo Takahashi,
minister Of finance, and Gen. Jotaro
Watanabe, chief of military education,
were assassinated by the rebels. Pre-
mier Okada escaped death, his brother
in-law being mistaken for him and
slain. The mutineers, threatened by
loyal troops and the fleet, obeyed an
edict by Emperor Hirohito and sur
rendered. OF their % leaders, two COM
mitted suicide and the rest were put in
prison to await probable trial by court
martial.
One other important result is likely
to follow the uprising, and that is the
formation of a new government more
national in character and including
some able military men. That is what
the army wants, not caring especially
who is premier. Okada, after emerg-
ing from his place Of hiding, offered
his resignation, but the emperor COM
manded him to carry on for the present.
1t may be Japan will really be the
gamer for the revolt, but it suffered
one great loss in the death of Taxa
hashi, who was financial genius.
The whole affair emphasizes the fact
that the japanese do not look with dis
favor on assassinations and suicides
that are motivated by patriotism"

Don't Entrust Your
Own or Your Family's
Well-Being to Unknown
Preparations

before you take any prepara-
ID ton you don't know all about,
for the relief of headaches; or the
pains of rheumatism, neuritis or
neuralgia, ask your doctor what he
thinks about it in comparison
with Genuine Bayer Aspirin.
We say this because, before the
discovery of Bayer Aspirin, most
so-called pain" remedies were adj
vised against by physicians as being
bad for the stomach; or, often, for
the heart. And the discovery of
Bayer Aspirin largely changed
medical practice.
Countless thousands of people
who have taken Bayer Aspirin year
in and out without ill effect, have
proved that the medical findings
about its safety were correct.
Remember this: Genuine Bayer
Aspirin is rated among the fastest
methods yet discovered for the relief
of headaches and all common pains
-. and safe for the average person
to take regularly.
You can get real Bayer Aspirin at
any drug store = simply by never
asking for it by the name aspirin"
alone, but always saying BAYER
ASPIRIN when you buy.

CAPE MAY, N. J., Sept. 28.- Lieutenant R. L. Burke, com manding officer of the Coast Guard Air Station. here, said today that the Government is investigating an alleged plot to smuggle arms from .hs United States to Spain.
 He made his statement art r Coast Guard officers and Customs Agents had conferred on the seizure of a former submarine chaser at Atlantic City and the arrest of three men with a truckload of arms at Biloxi, Miss
 Samuel J. Montgomery, Supervis- ing Customs Agent in southern New Jersey, said the investigators were seeking to learn the source of the arms.
 Part of the inquiry in New Jersey was directed toward rounding up witnesses against Willard Campbell of Atlantic City one of the men arrested in Mississippi and reputed owner of the former eagle boat, and against fourth man who was arrested here.
 The Manchonoch, the O. fo o t craft, was fully provisioned and fueled with 700 gallons of gasoline when seized, Lieutenant Burke said. Two men aboard the craft were released because there was no evil dence against them, Burke said.
 Neither Burke nor Montgomery said what evidence they had to indicate that the confiscated arms shipment was destined for Spain. Agents in the south had indicated belief the arms were bound to Latin America.

ON TAX ON FOOD
 AGAINST LAW

WASHINGTON, Sept. 28.-Attor- ney General mings warns against the displaying of placards in stores indicating that a part oi the prices posted on commodities consisted of Federal taxes. He said this might possibly be violation of Federal statutes.
 At a press conference, the Attor- ney General said he had received quite a number of protests from various parts of the country that some merchants have been putting up placards indicating a part of their prices was due to Federal taxation"
 Political Purposes
 The protests, Cummings said, in- dicated that the placards had been distributed for political purposes They also said that the placards might tend to restrict the sale of farm products.
 T sincerely hope" Cummings said, that partisan zeal will not lead anyone to violate the Federal statutes. It would be embarrassing all around and the Justice De- partment does not want to be drawn into any partisan incident" !"
 After Investigating the protests which he said were received prin- cipally from Indiana, Illinois and Iowa, Cummings said he had learn- ed that Section 1123 of the Fed eral statutes might possibly be ap- plicable to posting of placards such as those described in the tele- grams.
 Fine and Jail
 That law, he said, prescribes a S1 900 fine, year in jail, or both for anyone found guilty of making any written or oral statements in connection With the sale Of any articles when the statements are intended to lead persons to believe that any part of an articles price consists of a Federal tax.
 Asked if the law could not be invoked against gasoline companies and moving picture theatres which have been in the practice of post ing the amount of Federal tas included in the cost of gasoline ol theatre tickets, Cummings said that it might possibly apply in sucf cases but that such prices were posted by common consent"
 T have done nothing on thi matter the Attorney General said "and don't want to have to dt anything"
