to know how Mr.. Stassen expected
to control the activity of the "Old
Guard" after election if he could
not do it during the campaign. Mr..
Stassen continued to say he did not
believe in class intolerance. His
answer to the question was vague.
Ben F. Peery, a U. S. postal rail-
way clerk and former newspaper
worker, who was called upon for
remarks by Mrs. Fannie M. Shanks,
chairman of the meeting, intimat-
ed that he didn't think it was fair
for Mr.. Thomas to question Mr..
Stassenr He added, however, some
thing to the effect that since he,
himself, was a postal employe he
could not take sides in politics!
Leaving the auditorium, Mr..
Thomas turned to Mr.. Stassen and
said the Republican party as it is
now constituted in the state would
receive only the votes in November
of "the handkerchief head Ne

Best Basketball Squad in Alaska Returns to
 Town Today

Juneau's All-Star basketball team returned to town today aboard the steamer Alaska, bit diSgruntled, but confident they still can lick any basketball team in Alaska"
 The boys had tough luck from the start. The Baranof on which they were to make the trip to the Anchorage Fur Rendezvous, drop ped a few blades from her pro- pelor and was delayed in arriving here.
 To top it off, the Baranof pulled out of Juneau in snoWStorm on the 18th of February and was two days even getting out to the Gulf.
 From Seward the boys flew to Anchorage, arriving at six o'clock in the evening and three hours later played basketball game with the champion Fairbanks Wolverines who had already all but annexed the crown. Sea legs and plane legs did not make good combination and the boys were edged out by one point on the strange court.
 n the next two nights, however, they came back strong to swamp the Anchorage City team and the Signal Corps team with large totals, but Fairbanks had picked up bag and baggage the morning afte r their one point victory and left for home
 "Band?" said Jack Fowler this morning. No, but we did get a trip to Matanuska"
 Fowler announced that City League Basketball would take up again Friday where it left off be- fore the trip.
 Those who made the trip were Mir and Mrs. Robert Davlin, Gus Gissberg, Elmer Lindstrom, Roy Smith, Sammy Nelson, Mark Jen- sen, Claude Erskine, Hub Sturrock, Jack Fowler, Leonard Johnson and Dick May.

SUDETEN AREAS,
FLEE TO PRAGUE.

PRAGUE, Sept. 13.-Thousands
Of Jews today fled the Sudeten
German areas, abandoning homes
and other property, as the after
math to Adolf Hitler'S anti-Se-
metic address at Nuremberg.
They poured into Prague by
train, motor car and afoot, jam
ming hotels and rooming houses,
travelling eastward from the war
clouds that overhung Europe.
At least 5000 were on their
third trek within year. They
left Germany for Austria when
anti-Jewish reprisals drove them
from their homes there, and then
crossed the border into CZecho-
slovakia when the German &C.
quisition of Austria was accom-
plished.
Now they are heading eastward
toward the Carpathian Mountain
areas, trimming Slovakia on the
north, where more than 100000
Jews now live.

GROUP
MEETS TO PLAN
FOR VOTE
Meeting Called to
Name Officers

On the first anniversary Of its
founding, the District of Colum-
bia Suffrage Association will meet
Friday night at 8 o'clock to lay
plans for another year of aggreS-
Sive activity on behalf of the
voteless citizens of Washington.
Officers will be elected for The
coming year which, according 20
Wilbur S. Finch, president, may
turn out to be a most critical one
in the history of the movement"
During the year that has
elapsed since the association
was formed" Finch said, "itS
activities have met with pro-
found success.
The people have become con-
scious more than ever before Of
their anomalous political situa-
tion and they have, through the
leadership of this association,
awakened Congress and other
Federal and local officials to
the realization that something
should be done to secure to
them the political privileges to
which they as American citizens
are justly entitled.
1T is expected, therefore, that
another year of energetic activ-
ity on the part of this aSsocia-
ton will result in material prog
reSS in the District suffrage
movement"
