CONTAMINATION
 FOR PRESIDENT
Resolution Is Adopted at Mass Meeting Held in
 New Haven

New Haven, Conn, Nov. 22.-(UP) A resolution adopted at mass meeting of the New Haven Anti-Nazi League today commended President Roosevelt for his courageous efforts to stop the barbaric treatment of minorities in Germany by the Nazi government"
 The resolution was offered after an audience of more than 2O00 heard speakers last night propose an im- mediate boycott of all German goods and condemn the intimidation of Jews in that country.
 Dr. Jerome Davis, president of the American Federation of Teachers, declared "the hands of Hitler have been and are dripping red with in- nocent blood" as result of Nazi de- velopments during the past two weeks.
 The Rev. Halford E. Luccock, Yale professor of homiletics, asserted the purge was mot a Jewish tragedy but an internationally human tragedy" 1" and referred to Hitler, Goebbles and Goering as 'the unholy trinity"
 "A plumb line of moral judgment is being set against the rotten, slant ing, crooked house that Hitler built" he said.
 Other~ speakers included Mayor John W. Murphy; the Rev. Robert l.. Calhoun, Yale professor of his- torical theology and chairman of the league and John Hyde Preston, au- thor.
 Another unit of the league was formed last night at Hartford by 250 sympathizers.

It was considered unlikely, in view of the outburst of the Nazi press, that Chamberlain would obtain German cooperation for his plan, even if Won Dirksen was not re- called.
 6,5OO Acres for Jews
 The prime minister had held out hopes that some $500 acres of land could be made available for the set- clement of Jews, provided private contributions of more than $100,- 100000 were made.
 He laid particular stress on hot, equatorial Tanganyika, where pos- sibly 50,000 acros could be set aside. In addition he foresaw the possi- bility of nearly 10000 square miles in British Guiana for refuge set- clement.
 Chamberlain did not intervene in the debate in commons which fol- lowed his statement. The debate was on a laborite motion which de- proded "the treatment of Jews in Germany and welcoming efforts by nations, including the United States to secure a common policy"
 Sir Samuel HOare Accepts
 Sir Samuel Hoare, home secretary, replied in the debate for the govern ment, and announced that it ac- cepted the resolution.
 ''The issue raised in the last few days by measures against the Jews in Germany, forces itself on the attention of all other countries" he said.
 we all condemn the senseless crime in Paris (the shooting of German diplomat by 8 Jewish refugee) but we would not be hon. est with OuselveS or with the world if we concealed the depth of our feelings regarding the suffering in- flected on thousands of men and women as the result of a crime with which they had no connection what ever."
 Hoare's statement was preceded by bitter criticism of German methods by Laborites and Liberals.
 Godfrey Mander, Liberal, suggest ed that pressure should be put on Germany by putting high tariffs on German exports, the proceeds to be used to benefit refugees and also by appropriating part of the property of Germans in this country"
 Philip Noel Baker moved the res- olution. In the strongest criticism of Germany the house had heard since the crisis began, Noel-Baker referred to the murder of Ernst vom Rath as detestable, 'but no less de-

WHITE COLLAR MEN
 IN STOCK YARDS

Chicago, Nov. 9 - (UP) = White-collar commission men and company executives, acting under agreement with striking live stock handlers, climbed into pens at the Union Stock Yards today to clear the market of $2,000,000 worth of cattle, hogs and sheep.
 The men faced the taSk-one to which they were unaccustomed = of feeding, weighing and delivering to packers some 10000 cattle, 35,000 hogs and 16,000 sheep before 5 p. m., the deadline set by union leaders for suspension of operations.
 The handlers, members of the Clearinghouse Workers Organizing Committee, affiliate of the Congress for Industrial Organizations, struck without notice early yesterday, de- manding increased wages and a signed contract.
 Union leaders agreed last night to permit the commission men and exchange officials to clear stock on hand and en route because they had not had time to notify farmers in advance of the tie-up.

 George F. Johnson, chairman of the board of directors, George w. Johnson, president and Charles F. Johnson, Jr., general manager, in- formed the workers land the entire public" that the company "is afraid of the kind of election referendum that might easily be set up by agi- tators; that is, an unfair referendum favorable to one side only." Want All to Vote
 "We want every employe of Endi- cott-J Johnson to have the right to vote, from the president to the office boy" they said. We are ready for that kind of election just as quickly as details can be arranged ans agreed on"
 The three officials said they had been told that under the labor re- lations supervision about 2,700 of our working people are barred, with no right to vote," and that "it is for this reason we have paid no atten- tion to the suggestion that there be a vote."
 "This is not the American plan of choosing who shall represent us" they declared, adding that they would consent to a flair election" if the results shall be binding for a reasonable term of years" and if union organizers twill go elsewhere after the referendum.

(Contlnued from Page D Ruthenian refugees at Ungvar anc MunkacS the reports said.
 The Hungarian newspapers pub. ished the text of telegrams alleg. edly sent by the population o1 Ruthenian villages to Hitler ano Premier Benito Mussolini asked their aid in obtaining union with Hungary.
 Villages asking union were said to total 135. The entire press was urging immediate action.
 "Humanitarianism requires that order be restored in Ruthenia and that terrorism and cruelty be ended immediately" the influential news paper Nyolcorai Ujsag, of Budapest said. We cannot tolerate sec- ond Macedonia"
 Germany Objects
 While Hungary and Poland desire to annex Ruthenia, which forms the eastern tip of Czechoslovakia, and thus obtain a common from tier, Germany was understood to be determined to keep this corridor to the east open.
 With this in view the Vienna radio has been conducting cam paign of encouragement to the Slovaks to support the Czechs and Ruthenians against the aims of Hungary and Poland for partition of Ruthenia.
 This drew from Budapest coun- ter propaganda designed to win early annexation by Hungary of much territory north and northeast of the frontiers which representa- tives of Hitler and Mussolini drew up at the Nov. 3 arbitration confer ence here.
 The Vienna broadcasts are in Slo- yak while those from Budapest are in number of languages, including German and Italian.
 Each broadcast is labeled news, but the nature as well as the tone indicate German-Hungarian dis agreement and actual tension over the new frontiers.
 More War Sparks
 Prague, Czechoslovakia, Nov. a. (UP)-Hungary ordered the expul- sion of Czechoslovaks today from the territory she occupied after the dis menlberment of Czechoslovakia.
 The Slovakian government re- torted by ordering confiscation ot Hungarian property within its bor- derS.
 The Czechoslovaks to be expelled are those who settled since 1913 in the territory now regained by Hun gary.
 The two moves added to the strain on relations between the two coIn- tries caused by charges here that Budapest has fomented terrorism ir Ruthenia.
 Announcement of Hungary's ir- tention and of retaliatory action by the autonomous state of Slovakis added to the danger of new explosion in central Europe. The territory involved a long strip along the southern edge ol Slovalxia and Ruthenia. It wa turned over to Budapest by the or der of Germany and Italy. which mediated the dispute.

Cornwall is the background and
setting for this appealing and beau
tiful novel of two servant women,
Ellen Pascoe and Susan Pengilly.
Born of Cornish fisher people and
reared among the hardships and an
cient superstitions of an ancient
land, they have within themselves
that simplicity and nobility of
character which often arises from
such environment. Their story
compressed into the compass of for
ty-eight hours, holds not only trag.
edy and pathos, but dignity and
