chairman, declared that the work.

do their part.
The rest is strictly up to the
people of Washington" he said
THE poor people, for whom the
Chest agencies stand as their only
hope. have not been deserted by the
campaign workers 1t is now up to
more fortunate Washingtonians to

Although the percentage of goal
fulfilled is slightly less than the 8585
per cent achieved last year, the total
of funds this year is about $4,000
greater, since a smaller goal was set
last year. Pledges amounted to u.s.

real cold snap.
In nearby Maryland yesterday
roses were in full bloom along
roadside leading to Laurel, and along
Chesapeake Bay summer flowers of
all types were still to be seen. In
Laurel rock gardens were ablaze with
bright colors. Apple trees in some
sections had started new crops of
blossoms and fresh strawberries were
gathered on some farms near Cam
bridge, according to the Associated
Press.
But fog blanketed Chesapeake
areas last night, tying up trans
portation, and the Maryland States
Road Commission was busy putting
up red snow fences along the wind

service reported.
The situation in Virginia pre-
sented a similar picture with snow
expected in the mountains and rain,
perhaps turning to soft fakes during
the day, in the regions nearer the

Potomac Fishermen
Find Man S Body
h the Associated Press.

HEATHSVILLE, Va, Nov. "a
Sheriff j. E. Anderson of Northum-
berland County checked with a
Washington-N Norfolk boat line today
as to the identity of the body of a
man found by Potomac River fisher
men near the mouth of Coan River.
1t was brought by them to Lewisetta
yesterday.
All factors indicated that it was
that of Robert Lee Hodgson, 30, a
Johns Hopkins graduate from Cum
berland, Md, who disappeared from
a Norfolk bound steamer on the
night of November CT.
A note found in the washroom of
the boat when it reached Norfolk
said he intended to drop over
board-with a large tire chain
wrapped around his waist" There
was a chain on the body fishermen
found. A coat was found in the
washroom. The body was well
clothed, but the coat was missing.
At the time of the disappearance
relatives in Cumberland said Hodg-
son was depressed by his inability
to find work suitable to his educa-
ton and ability. He was employed

President Hears Ban
Will Not Be Placed
On Palestine Influx
Hopes Report Is True;
To Make Dinner Talk
On Radio Tonight
By the Associated Press.

WARM SPRINGS, Ga, Nov. "a
President Roosevelt projected him.
self into the center of international
Jewish relief efforts again today as
he arranged to attend Thanksgiving
religious services marked by Nation
wide prayers for oppressed minori-
ties.
In an unexpected 51-word formal
statement issued last night long
after the normal closing time for the
White House Offices he expressed
the hope that a report he had re-
ceived that refugee migration to
Palestine would be materially in
creased" would prove authentic.
Without giving the source of his
information or any other details, the
President sent the following state
ment to reporters through his sec
retary, Marvin Mcintyre:
"It is reported here that the num-
ber of refugees to be permitted en-
try into Palestine will be materially
increased and in particular that
many children and young people
will be given refuge there.
II have no means Of knowing the
accuracy of this report, but I hope
that it is true"
Attitude Already Known.
Long before his first formal state
ment of November Is, asserting
American public opinion had been
deeply shocked" by anti-JeWish
prosecutions in Germany, Mr..
Roosevelt had sought to halt Brit
ish plans to limit the flow of Jews
to their Palestine homeland dur
ing the Arab uprising.
1t was natural. therefore, that any
information that such migrations
from Europe would be stepped up
rather than decreased would meet
with his hearty approval.
The President planned to attend
services today in the little white
chapel built here last year for
patients of the Infantile Paralysis
Foundation. In Thanksgiving Day
proclamation issued last week he
had asked the American people to
offer prayers on this day for the less
fortunate in other lands.
Tonight, the President and Mrs.
Roosevelt will be hosts at turkey
dinner in Georgia Hall for the
crippled patients of all ages of the
Warm Springs Foundation and their
families.
Places Set for 500.
Places were set for 500 diners and
many of the younger patients were
vying for the honor of sitting at the
Presidents table.
The President planned to make a
radio talk for five minutes, beginning
at 8 pm. (E. S. T) on the work of
the foundation. Then, after dinner,
the patients were to put on a few
acts for their hosts.
In his only other official act yes
terday, the President announced the
recess appointments of Otto Kerner
as Federal Circuit judge of the 7th
circuit; Michael l.. Igoe as Federal
district judge for the northern dis
trict of Illinois, and William j.
Campbell as United States attorney
for the district. All are Illinoisans.
The judgeship appointments are
for new places created in the little
court bill" of the last Congress. Mr..
Kerner is now attorney general of
Illinois. Mr.. Igoe is being promoted
from the United States district at
torneyship at Chicago, and Mr..
Campbell will move into Mr.. Igoe's
old job from his present position as

BERLIN, Nov. 24-Colombia's S
Minister designate to Germany an
nounced today that he had been
recalled as the result of an incident
during the anti-JeWish violence OF
two weeks ago which strained rela-
tions between the two countries.
The envoy, Rafael Garamillo, said
he would leave tonight for Paris
and that his post would be left
vacant for the time being.
The incident which caused the
recall occurred November 10, the day
anti-Jewish violence reached its
height. Garamillo and the entire
Legation staff drove about Berlin IN
a Legation automobile flying the
Colombian flag.
From time to time Rocha Schloss,
first secretary, jumped out to photo
graph a burning synagogue or
broken store window.
Halted by Police Car.
Suddenly the party was halted by
the screaming siren of police car.
Dozens of policemen surrounded the
diplomats and tried to seize their
cameras.
Garamillo protested, but according
to his version the police told him
1t made no difference whether he
was a diplomat or not.
They attempted to take him to a
police station, but the party locked
themselves in the automobile.
Thereupon the police made it i'm
possible for the car to move.
Finally Garamillo persuaded the
police to accompany him to the
foreign Office, where. he said, he
was told that the police had done
their duty and that the foreign
Office could not reprimand the police.
A written protest was handed to
the foreign Office the following day,
but no reply was received.
Reception Postponed.
Meanwhile Rocha Schloss, as
charge daffaires, was called to the
foreign Office and told that Chan
cellor Hitler, to whom the Minister
designate had not yet presented his
credentials, had heard of the affair
and had postponed indefinitely his
reception of Garamillo, set for No
vember Is.
The Colombian government there
upon recalled Garamillo and decided
to leave the post vacant as protest.
The Minister designate said that
Rocha-Schloss also would leave
Berlin at the end of November and
60 to Copenhagen.
His governments action, Cara
milo said, did not mean the closing
of the legation. However, no new
minister will be sent and another
first secretary will replace Rocha-
Schloss and act as charge d'affaires.

BERLIN, Nov. 24-Suicides among
Jews were reported increasing today
before the mounting intensity of the
Nazi anti-Semitic drive.
There were no figures, but those
who told of the suicides said they
included husbands who chose death
as the best way to guard against
further hardships for Jewish
wives.
Driven from social life in Germany
and ordered to get out of industry.
Jews yesterday suffered a further
blow in an assessment of one-fifth
Of their fortunes above $4,000.
Difficulty in Paying.
The money must be paid by August
IS, 1899. For the some $4,000 Jews
in concentration camps there was
almost insurmountable difficulty in
trying to arrange for the payments.
Few Jews have sufficient cash on
hand to pay the fine, and their
source of income is being curtailed
rapidly by the taking over of Jewish
stores by non-JeWish owners.
Nazis said today that the process
of Aryanizing business at present
was confined to the retail field, that
it was proceeding Exceptionally
fast" and that wholesale and export
and shipping firms would be next.
Drive Held Justified.
The propaganda campaign con-
tinued, with the Deutsche Berg
werks- -Zeitung, important industrial
publication of Dusseldorf, editor
ializing that the anti-Semitic drive
was justified because of the wealth
of Jews.
The editorial How Jews Became
So Rich" asserted they never lost
all their property despite medieval
prosecutions because they knew
how to cover up."

.kINY OFF AIR
 FOR FEW DAYS


 For the benefit of radio tuner iners," station KINY is off the air today. and for the next three, or four days. aea5 m
 The reason for the sudden, but temporary, closing of the local sta tion may be blamed to the new station, located on the rock dump" and which, incidentally, is a "dinger." During the time KINY remains silent, tests are being made of the new station, with the gov ernment. This, however. could be done anl still keep broadcasting over the "old KINY'', but for one reason. When radio fans tune in hereafter, the new KINY" will be heard on different frequency. 1430 kilocycles instead of the old fre- quency of 1910 kilocycles, so if the station were to remain broadcasting during the tests which are now be- ing carried on, another license would have to be purchased, be- cause of the two different fre- quencies, and KINY would be class flied as two different stations.
 Wires have been received from San Francisco saying that the new station just blooms" in, all sounds being both loud and strong.
 
 The new building is one of the most modern and up-to-date of any station in the country, all equip ment of the very latest. Because recordings have to- be used here to a great extent, one of the most expensive transmitting turntables has been purchased, which will make the recordings sound almost real. Another item of interest to radio fans is the fact that no harmonics will be thrown out from the new station to interfere with programs on standard broadcasting bands
 All local studio programs for the most part will be broadcast as usual in the main office in the Goldstein Building, although the new building on the rock dump has

What Do You Do With Extra Salmon You Catch Now?

What do people do with all the extra salmon they catch?
 That is the question puzzling Assistant Regional Forester We'll man Holbrook and Fiscal Agent Ray Ward after successful day with hook and gaff yesterday not far from the Holbrook cabin out the road. Concluding that many sports fishermen catch great many more fish than they need, the officials advanced the thought today that it might be an excellent thing for some group to plan for saving the fish and distribute them in the winter to needy families.
 "If fishermen knew some place they could turn in the extra fish they get on weekendS where they could be put in cold storage and saved for distribution in the win ter time to needy people, it seems to me large supply could be ob- tained," said Holbrook, "and it would be a boon to great many needy persons in the winter months. Various organizations do much of |that kind of work in the winter time and I can't see why these |extra salmon caught every week end wouldn't fit into. the scheme. It's a shame for them to go to waste as many of them undoubted- ly do."
 The official said he expected to contact groups who do welfare work in the winter time and see if some plan could not be devised.
