Officials said the instructions for
Ambassador Wilson to come to
Washington were in no sense an
interruption of diplomatic relations.
They added, however, that the step
was one taken only in important
cases.
Mr.. Wilson, who has been in Ber-
line less than year, will report
to President Roosevelt not only on
the Jewish situation but also on all
problems affecting American rela-
tions with the Hitler regime.
Shortly after the announcement
OF his return was made last night,
Senator King, Democrat, Of Utah
proposed that the United States
sever diplomatic relations with Ger
many if Nazis continue their abuse
of Jews.
Senator King spoke on a nation
wide radio symposium in which Sec

The minister Of propaganda
| added:
Measures may be expected, max
ing an end of the situation in which
Jewish families of two or three live
in villas with 20 or 80 rooms, while
adequate living quarters for the Ger
man people are still lacking
Goebbels made clear the meas
ures against Jews were not applied
against foreign capital undertak-
ings' and that American Jews were
considered of American nationality
and would not be affected.
Banks, however, have been reject
ing orders from Jews of foreign ma
tionality to sell German stocks
They are permitted to sell only if
they buy corresponding amount
of other German stocks.
In addition to the closing of
schools to Jews, it became known
today that Jewish professors and
musicians had been denied their
former privilege of teaching foreign
ers in private.
1t also was reported that during
the window smashing outbreak last
Thursday the Berlin Office main
tanned by Palestine Jews to facilitate
emigration to Palestine was de-
stroyed and the records of pros
pective emigrants were lost.
Word from rural areas indicated

tagious."
Mr.. Hoover declared the situation
makes us fearful for the whole
progress of civilization" and added
that it is bringing to Germany
moral isolation from the entire
world"
Relations between the United
States and Germany in general have
not been of the best in the last year,
although Ambassador Wilson, a
career officer of many years expert
ence, was sent to Berlin with the
intention of bettering them.
Germany has not replied to re-
peated notes from the United States
requesting her to assume Austria s
debts to this country. The United
States protested in May against a
decree requiring the registration of
property of American Jews in Ger
many as a forerunner to conf1sca-
ton OF the property.
How much, if any, of that property
has suffered in the anti-Semitic out
breaks of the last few days is not
known here. Unoficial reports have
reached the State Department that
some damage has been done, but
until confirmation has been received,
no protest can be made.
Ambassador Wilson, however, may
inquire about this point when he
makes the customary call on the
German foreign Office before leaving
for home.
Mr.. Wilson: who succeeded Am
bassador William E. Dodd, previous
ly was stationed in Berlin at the
time of Americas entrance into the
World War and again after the war.

willing to allow Jews to enter their
establishments.
In leading Jewish hospital in
Berlin, with several hundred beds,
there are only six doctors to care
for the patients. In another hos
pital. with 40 beds, and a third, with
60, there is no doctor whatever. Des-
perate Jewish parents of sick chill
dren are frantically trying to get in
touch with physicians and in many
cases are unable to do so.
The problem of getting food is
also acute. Many stores and restau-
rants refuse to sell to Jews at all.
Even in localities where there are
still places which will sell to Jews,
the Jews themselves cannot get ac-
cess to their money and credit is
only grudgingly granted

Emanuele Is Sympathetic.

VATICAN CITY, Nov. IS tP.-
L L'Ossservatore Romano, Vatican
newspaper, said today that King
Vittorio Emanuele had informed the
Pope that the Holy Fathers wishes"
concerning Italy's new racial mar
riage restrictions would be given
the greatest consideration
The marriage decree, promulgated
last Thursday, prohibited marriage
of an Italian citizen of the Aryan
race with person belonging to an
other race This. L'Osservatore
said, wounded the 1929 lateran
accord between the Holy See and
the Italian government.
The newspaper yesterday disclosed
that Pope Plus had sent two pa
ternal, handWritten letters" to the
King and Premier Mussolini con-
corning the decree.
Notwithstanding that" said Los
servatore, new legislative DISPOSE
tions have come out without agree
ment with the Holy See"
However, the newspaper said to-
day that as result of the Kings
assurance, made in a note referring
to the Pope's personal letter. hope
was brighter that friendly agree
ment might be reached removing the
Vaticans objections to the marriage
decree
Those objections were based on
the provision of article "a of the
lateran accord that church mar
riages should be recognized as legal
by civil authorities and that cases
of notification of church marriages
should be decided by canon law.
