Many Attempts Believed
Made Upon Hiier:s Life

placed upon Nazi leaders the respon-
sibility for seeing that bouquets were
taken from spectators along the
routes of his tours.
Precautions to safeguard his life
have increased in recent years.
It was noted that he spoke from
behind a bullet-proof glass en-
closure at Wilhelmshaven last April
4 at the launching of the battleshiI
Admiral Won Tripitz NaZis said
however. the enclosure, which re-
sembled a teller's cage, was for the
purpose of protecting his throat a
gainst the chilly breeze.
The plot which claimed the lives
of six of his 'old guard followers
and injured 80 others yesterday re-
called another close call the fuehrel
had in the same location l6-years
ago.
1t was from the Munich beer Gel
lar that he launched his abOrtlVe
putsch in 1923 and started march
on Berlin Detachments OF regular
troops opened fire on his columns
and many of his men fell but Hitler
dropped to the street and escaped
the bullets.
On March Is, 1888, Count Anton
Arco-Valley was placed under pro
tective arrest" in Munich because the
police said, he had announced ne
planned -. >..,-...,l on Hltler'S life
In 1919 the count shot Kurt Eismel
socialist premier of Bavaria, was
condemned to death and later par
doned. Hitler's newspaper reported
Acro-Valley told friends, Il wouldn't
mind removing Hitler as l once did
Eismer."
Six days before that, on March 7,
two walters were arrested at Munich
on a charge Of planning the assas-
sination of Hitler.
The following April police at
Berchesgaden said they had frustrat-
ed an attempt on Hitler's life by the
arrest of Paul Orlowsky who had
been found carrying loaded pistol
near the chancellOr'S mountain home
A few days later the police clear
ed Orlowsky, saying he was an ac-
credited member of the NaZi party
who merely wished to speak to Hit
Ter concerning a petition and plan
ned no attempt on the fuehrers life
Just four days after that incident
Munich said they believed they had
thwarted a plot on Hitler's life thrO-
ugh the arrest of Hindu, allegedly
a Communist, and his chauffeur al

There have been various unverl-
fled reports of attempts on the lie
of Adolf Hitler before yesterday $
(Wednesday's) beer cellar explosion
at Munich, but no attempt ever was
officially admitted.
Hitler barely escaped assassination
in 1884 it was reported at the hands
of Edmund Heines. one OF those he
attempted to arrest in the Nazl
''blood purge.
Heines was said to have rushed up
to Hitler with a revolver but was
shot and killed by one of the Nazl
chieftain's aides.
Reports in Nazi circles at the time
said the incident occurred at the
home of Captain Ernst Roetn. one
of the Nazis who died IN the purge.
Unconfirmed reports from unre-
lated quarters i'm Munich and Ber-
lin on January 7, 1888. said two
storm troopers had attempted to
shoot Hitler in his chancellory the
week before.
There were two VerSiOns-both de
MED by responsible NaZi cicles-One
that his chauffeur had been killed
and another that the chauffeur was
wounded 1t was noted, however, de-
spite the denials that afterWard Hit
Ter had a new chauffeur.
In March of the same year a
roundup of five men, including three
Americans, by police at Copenhagen,
Denmark. led to the BELIEF in inform
ed quarters there that aliens had
been plotting against Hitler's life.
The Copenhagen arrests came
after Danish police received a
warning that aliens residing tenn
porarily in Copenhagen, Paris,
Prague, and Antwerp We're implicat-
ed in the alleged plot
Helmuth Hirsch, 21-year-0ld Jew
ish son Of a naturalized American,
was executed June /, 1887, in Ger
many on charge believed at first
to have involved a suspected plot
against the fuehrer.
1t was reported on good authority
later, however, that the very high
government OtficiaI against whom
Hirsch was accused of plotting was
Julius Streicher, high Hitler aide and
leading Nazi Jew-hater
When Hitler rode triumphantly
into newly annexed Sudetenland on
October 7 last year his face was
scratched by a bouquet of roses
thrown by an over-enthusiastic ad-
mirer
That ''incident of the roses"
brought an order that henceforth
welcomers refrain from shoWering
the fuehrer with flowers. A promi-
nent Nazi editor said at the time
that the incident furnished q well
come occasion for guarding against
the possibility that bouquets might
at some time contain explosives
Hitler himself issued the order a.

WANT MILK PRICE
CONTROL LAWS CHANGED

SACRAMENTO, Feb. l6. (UP)-
Repeal OF portions of the California
agricultural code providing methods
OF fixing the price to be paid by
milk distributors to producers was
advocated today at a joint session
of the state senate and assembly
agricultural and livestock and dairy
committees.
Edward M. Selby. representing IL
cooperative organizations of milk
producers in Los Angeles county,
made the first presentation for the
opponents of the existing milk
marketing laws He said the men,
bership he represented produced
approximately 05 per cent of the
market milk sold in Los Angeles
county.
Before setting forth the specific
objections Of his group TO the con-
troll act, Selby recounted a history
Of the legislative attempt to regu-
late prices in the milk industry. The
law as originally adopted, he said,
provided a means whereby local
groups could organize into market
ing areas and producers were per-
mitted to agree upon the price they
should receive.
At the 1887 session of the legisla-
ture, he said, the act was almost
completely revised, and the appoint
ment Of local control boards was
done away with. The effect of these
amedments to the act, Slby said,
was to remove control from the pro-
ducers and give it TO the distribut-

Moore and Councilman Harry
Sones both questioned the advis-
ability buying the lights. Sones
said:
THE park hasn't proved out at
all and it is questionable whether
sufficient hard ball would be played
under lights to warrant the eXpen-
diture. There are so many ways
in which the city can spend money.
Scriyen defended the move with:
Il still think the money spent at
the stadium was some of the best
the city ever spent. 1t already has
justified itself in recreation alone.
One point which appeared to in
fluence the board was an agree
ment by the Imperial Irrigation
district to erect the necessary poles
and wiring for the system When
