Nazi Chieftain Accuses
Jews of Plotting"

NUREMBERG, Germany, Sept.
IS GN.SO.-The spectacular Nazi
Party Congress was at an end to-

ing blast against Bolsheviks still
resounded in the ears OF Germans

Hitler closed the Congress with
a strong appeal to Germany and
Europe for solidarity against Boil
sheviSm, and in doing so made a
direct peace gesture to France to
forget hatred" in fighting the
common red enemy
CHARGES JEWS
He solemnly warned the democ-
racies of the world they would be
destroyed unless they Joined the
Communist front and charged
Jews were aiming at world die
tatorship through a BolsheviSt
world revolution directed from
Moscow.
He declared Communist upris-
ings represent gigantic onslaught
on the present social order OF the
cultured, civilized world. and rep
resent a greater danger than has
ever threatened civilization since
the advent of Christianity"
The Fuehrer claimed Germany
and Italy are now immune against
Communism, but that democracies
offer the best ground for spread

TELLS OF PERIL"
Jews are neither morally nor
spiritually superior but are, in
fact, inferior to other races"
Hitler declared.
There can be no doubt Jews
are trying to uproot the founda-

In a sharp thrust at British and

added:
If England and France do

in Europe to be shifted in favor
of Germany and Italy, we do not
want it shifted in favor OF

ANY one can do that mean real
fencing and real tapping"
You used to see dancing as done
by ballets; now you see and hear it
in the tap, and in the future you
will feel it, too" Leslie continued. THE
only thing left to do is to smell it,
and sometimes you can even do that
now when it's bad" he grinned.
Negroes are the only natural dane
ers in the world, said Leslie, who
learned his first dancing watching
Negroes around his Virginia home.
The rest Of the world is separated
from natural rhythm by too many
years Of civilization.
Leslie's contribution to tap dancing
of today and tomorrow includes the
development of new tap shoe. Al
ready his newer routines require an
additional Taper on the side of the
shoe opposite the big toe. so that tap
rhythm can be made by swinging the
two big toes together.
Il have introduced a new idea
which Capezio IS working on for ball
bearing tap" he explained. About
so ball bearings are placed in the sole
OF each shoe over the ball Of the foot.
A dancer can spin forever on them.
I saw it down in South America and
brought it back"
