fought about 10 times at the bar

about $2500 show at the gate. He
had color and the fans were wild
about him.
well, we matched him with
Johnny Gill and along about the
seventh round Gill popped Jack with
right to the jaw and knocked him
as cold as marble
"He killed off one of the best
moneymakers this town ever
has seen with that punch and
almost broke my heart.
I was matchmaker at the barracks
and a fighter like Turner was money
in the bank.
You can imagine my surprise last
week at Frederick when a fellow
came across the ring to our corner
and held out his hand. Remember
me, Frankie he said. I looked at
him closely, and sure enough it was
Johnny Gill. I hadn't laid eyes on
him since the Turner fight I said,
Johnny, I hope you don't cause me
as much grief tonight as you did the
time you flattened Jack Turner
Frank he said, I've got a great
amateur heavyweight here tonight
I'm bringing him along slowly and I
think he's going places. I'm sorry
you're in the other kids corner be-
cause he's gonna get licked
Il had Jimmy DeChard. of course,
and to make a long story short.
Jimmy whipped his boy, and almost
knocked him out in the last round.
Harry Rouse was the other fellow S
name and he looked pretty good
but you should've seen Jimmy work
on him. II was masterful. I'm telling
you truthfully he looked to be a
champion. They liked him SO we'll
they want him for an amateur
show IN York, Pa, next week.
Il think we've got something in
this DeChard. Hes only 20 years
old and still growing. He weighs
1875 pounds-juSt beginning to fill
out. and he's 6 feet IL inches tall
1 may be wrong about his pros
poets. I'm taking no chances with
him. I've nursed him along three
years and there's no need TO rush
him now Why, he's just baby-lt d
be foolish to throw him in against
some of these old, seasoned pros
In another year-maybe two wears.
we'll turn him pro.
"Thatll be soon enough and
when he does go after the
money, it will be big money,
and he'll be ready"

practically losing any internal au-
tonomy they may have enjoyed up
70 now. This central organization
n he known as the "Reichsvere-
nigung der Juden in Deutschland
will he used as an instrument for
speeding up the liquidation OF
Jewish life in Germany, despite
all difficulties of emigration ana
resettlement abroad. Furthermore
the new organization has TO
shoulder the entire burden of Jew
ish education and welfare work,
anv subsidies hitherto granted
from public funds having been
cancelled. Thus the day when the
last resources of the Impoverished
community will be exhausted by
the continually increasing DRAIN is
drawing nearer and nearer. What
then is to become of the Jews IN
Germany?
Will that sinister forecast by
semi-official Nazi weekly that
Jews will ultimately be forced to
become criminals, to be dealt
with under the penal law, come
true? Or will the present rulers
in Germany, by a general war, be
given the opportunity of an at
tempt to carry out the threat pro-
'nounced by Hitler, when on Janu-
ary 3Oth he told the Reichstag
that another war will end not
in the destruction of Germany,
but in the annihilation Of the Jew
ish race throughout Europe

The Great POgrOm1

knoWns what has become of this
fund. In any case, no Jewish en-
igrant has ever seen a cent of it.
Jewish emigration from Germany,
owing to increased immigration
restrictions, in European and over
seas countries, and in view Of the
fact that international efforts to
secure change in the Reich at
titude towards the problem had
failed, assumed a rather chaotic
character. All the more frequent
became the illegal crossing of
frontiers, by Jewish individuals
and groups and refugee ships
a wandering over the seas became
a new feature of the Jewish trag-
edy.
The most remarkable develop
ment in this respect occurred in
the early autumn, when tens of
thousands of Jews of Polish ma
tionality, but no longer recognized
as citizens of the Polish Govern
ment, were forcibly driven across
the frontier by German storm
, troopers. It was this inhuman &C.
ton of the Nazi Government
which led the young Grynszpan to
fire the fatal shots at the Paris
Embassy attache. His parents
were among the sufferers camp
ing on the German-Polish border.
The practise of wholesale expul-
sion was resumed by the Nazi
Government in June, when 1000
Polish Jews were ordered to clear
out at fortnight's or one month
notice and all the 1900 Polish
or stateless Jews still left in
Germany were threatened with a
similar fate.
In the field of economic annihil-
alton the process of iquidating
Jewish businesses throughout Ger
many, which officially was to
start on January LIST, was actually
completed long before that date.
After November 26th no Jewish
retail shop remained open in Ber-
lin. When the official "Aryani-
cation" action began, it became
clear that there was much less
to "Aryanize" than had been ex-
pected. Having been boycotted for
years, most Jewish enterprises
stood on the verge of bankruptcy.
They were no longer worth being
taken over by new owners. Thus,
OH of $3.50 Jewish-owned retail

shops existing in Berlin on jan
uary 1st, only 700 could be sold
at a more or less nominal price,
while 500 more for which permits
sion to be sold had been granted,
did not find a buyer. In Ham
burg, only 81 shops out of 1000
were permitted to be sold.
Another anti-Jewish measure
which came into effect on January
LIST forced every Jew or Jewess to
adopt the name of Israel or Sarah
in addition to their real first
names, these names to be regarded
as Jewish" in the future. Every
Jew over three months old was
obliged by decree always to carry
with him a special Identification
card with fingerprints. A few
weeks later Jews with surnames
containing any combination of the
word ."Deutsch" were ordered to
assume their mothers maiden
name or another Notwithstanding
surname.
The next legislative step to be
taken against the Jews was the
exclusion of Jewish dentists, first
from panel practice and after
wards from any practice at all.
Their fate was shared by Jewish
chemists and veterinary surgeons,
the former having already been
deprived of their licenses some
years ago, while owing to condi-
tons in the German countryside,
only a few Jewish vets were left
at all. The ban on dentists af-
fected about 500 in the old Reich
and $50 in Austria.
A new wave of arrests swept
over Germany in January. Jews
were accused of not having kept
their promises to emigrate within
certain period or having neglect
ed preparations for future emf
grafton.
Defying any friendly represent
atoms that had been made by
Western Powers, the Nazi Gov
eminent also took further meas
ures to strip Jewish emigrants of
their last possessions. Apparent
ly, the Nazis were anxious to
make true a prophecy, published
by Streicher's "Stuermer" as far
back as in 1884, in the form of
front-page cartoon, showing a
naked Jew and bearing the cap
ton: This is the way we are
going to drive them out" We'd
ding ring, silver watch and one
set of table silver are now the
only valuables a Jew from Ger
many is allowed to take out of
the country.
While, on the other hand, the
Gestapo are increasingly pressing
the Jews to emigrate, all kinds of
difficulties are put in their way
by the German authorities. At
the same time, the ghetto walls
enclosing those unable to leave are
growing higher every month. AL
though intention to create a ge-
ographical ghetto in Germany was
denied by the Nazis, a decree was
issued in May providing for the
compulsory removal of Jewish
tenants from houses owned by
"Aryans" to Jewish-owned houses.
This process of segregating Jews
in separate houses and quarters
is still going on. Moreover, on
August 1st, Jews in Vienna had
to give up any front rooms they
occupied.
The tendency of Capitalization
for the purpose of making posi-
BILE a still closer control by the
almighty Gestapo is noticeable
also in the decree forcing all
the Jewish communities within
the Reich into one single organiza-
ton, of which the communities are
now becoming mere branches

program Of liquidation of Diaspora
Jewry, had for a long time been
viewed with favor by the Nazi
authorities and had enjoyed kind
of preferential treatment on their
part, had already been dissolved
in October. Apparently it's exist
ence had proven an obstacle in the
new Nazi efforts to win over the
Arab world for their own far

BY the beginning of January, not
less than 70 per cent of all No

many of them with serious lung
disorders, fractured limbs, or shat
