MEDFORD MAIL TRIBWE, MEDFORD, OREGON, FRIDXY, MAT 18, 1934. PXGE SEVEN r NEW BLUE EAGLE FIGHTS BOYCOTT Those Flying Emblem Are Pledged Not to Buy Sup plies From Sources An tagonistic German Goods New Film Marriage Risk Seen in Case of Harlow By RAIBB WINGET NEW YORK. P)Thcre la a now blue eagle flapping It wings In New York. It la a German-American blue eagle and in the Germ an-American sections of New York It la reported to be as popular aa the NRA bird. Introduction of the eagle here Is considered another move In the long and often bitter fight between ele ments of Germans and Jews, a re flection of racial disturbances in Nazi Germany. Shopkeepers, especially In the German-American Yorkville section of the city, are proudly displaying the eagle of Imperial mien perched above the letters DAWA and a rising sun. DAW A stands for Deutsch - Amerikanisher Wlrtschafts - Ausschuss meaning German-American Economic commit tee. History of Movement. Those flying the eaglo are reported pledged not to buy supplies from any source that boycotts German goods. Backers of the plan say there are 1,600 eagles and many more than that number of consumers pledged to buy from the new eagle shops. - The history back, of the movement etarts with reports of Nazi persecu tion of Jews In Germany last year. Jews and Jewish sympathizers, espec ially In New York, whose population includes approximately 2,000.000 Jews, organized a boycott of -all things Ger man. In the face of the boycott, some of the largest department stores an nounced they would not purchase German products, and mass meetings were held to protest Hitler's treat ment of Jews in Germany. Ambassa dor Hans Luther In Washington lodg ed complaints with the American gov ernment, but federal authorities said they could take no action because no federal officials were involved. Congressional Probe. The pro-Hitler movement In the United States came to light when Heinz Spanknoebel, leader of the Friend of New Germany, left the country as officials sought him for questioning. Representative Dlcksteln of New York last fall launched an In vestigation In Washington of pro Nazi activities in America, and a com mitted now is continuing that work. Meanwhile, pro-Nazis are consoli dating their forces, holding mass meetings and parades and fighting the Jewish boycott of German goods. Their open drive hero was coin cident with the announcement from HJalmar Schacht, president of the Eelchsbank in Berlin, that Germany la having difficulty in meeting her foreign obligations because of dwin dling foreign commerce. There has been, however, no of ficial connection Isetween the Reich and the drive in America by pro Nazis. A total of 4190,000 is being spent to rehabilitate Fort Brown, Browns ville, Tex., which was damaged by the 1833 hurricane. Jimmy Phelan, University of Wash ington football coach, has been spending much of his spring practice time combing his big squad for ex ceptional kickers. TTTT- 111 HI lip IIIMIBI Willi Hi 111 1 1 IWIII I ! WH ! KS Some Hollywood couples have drifted apart because husband and wife were separated by their work, but Jean Harlow (above) and her cameraman-husband hnve come to the parting of the ways even though both worked on tlie same movie lot. oenina ine camera she became scarcely more By ROBBIN COONS HOLLYWOOD. The hazards of matrimony In filmland, where hus bands and wives often are separated by duty on the lots, are frequently cited, but Jean Harlow and Harold G. Rosson appear to have found the opposite extreme equally perilous. Rosson was photographing Jean In "The Red- Headed Woman," and he stayed there through other Harlow productions after their marriage. When Jean was rehearsing, Hal was always on the sidelines, whether In his capacity as husband or as cam eraman It was not apparent to the casual observer, although probably It was, as both. During rehearsals for her current film, "One Hundred Per Cent Pure,' Hal was there as usual. As cameraman, he'd have to be. As her husband, he apparently wanted to be. But mid-way In the filming, some thing happened. Rosson was, relieved of the camera on this production, and Ray June, another good lens man, took It over. Hal went to the cameras on. "Treasure Island." This was about a week before Jean an nounced she would seek a divorce. Ironic Circumstances Whether the studio disagreement was the forerunner of domestic trouble, or merely an aftershock of an earthquake at home, remained merely one of those Hollywood ques tions. At any rate, the separation came under ironic circumstances, like pre vlous important events in the star's life. She was merely the decorative femininity In two-reel comedies be fore she stepped suddenly into daz zling stardom as the siren of "Hell's Angels." That debut stamped her as the vampire type, and it wasn't Jean's Idea of the stardom she'd like. Her marriage to Paul Bern, the quiet, beloved ' little studio executive, with It more sympathetic (Continued rroui yage one) brought roles. Irony pursued her in Bern's death. She became a widow while she was yet a bride. Incongruous Setting And then, when she suddenly mar-' ried Rosson In a spectacular mid night airplane elopement to Yuma bride again after than one year of widowhood. ' And no more Incongruous setting for an announcement of Impending divorce could have been chosen than the wedding party of another film actress. Matron of honor to Carey Wilson, Miss Harlow put aside her own bouquet to explain the absence of her husband from the festivities. He wasn't there, she said, because he had left home and- she was get ting a divorce. And then everybody mingled spec ulations on the marital wreck of last September's bride with felicitations to the bride of the day I ate today quietly wrote the conclu sion to a huge volume of campaign "literature" which had urged the nomination of 383 candidates for 116 offices. For 12 hours, from 8 a. m. to 8 o'clock tonight the 461,914 registered voters of Oregon had their opportun ity to act In today's state-wide nom ination election. Rig Non-Partlsnn Ballot In addition to the usual Republi can and Democratic tickets for gov ernor, three congressmen, secretary of state and other offices, there was a large non-partisan ballot for elec tion of Judges, and a list of five ref erended Items, the most important of which was a proposed XA per cent state sales tax for relief of financially distressed elementary schools. The campaign was brought to a rousing conclusion last night as can didates, striving to bring Interest to Its highest pitch, fired the last vol ley at the ballot markers. Portland Dry for Day With the return of legal liquor, there came, too, a return of the old law banning sale of such liquor on election day. All state liquor stores and agencies were ordered to remain closed today, and in Portland the anti-alcoholic rule was applied even to beer, In order that the X-markers might function with a clear head and a steady hand. In Multnomah county (Portland) It was predicted today's vote would be about CO per cent of the registra tion, although the county clerk said the Democratic vote might run as high as 60 per cent because of In terest in the Democratic nomination for governor. In this contest Charles H. Martin, retiring from congress to seek the governorship, was opposed by Willis E. Mahoney, young mayor of Klamath Falls, and "anti-power trust" candidate, Meier Out of It Gov. Julius L. Meier, head of one of the largest department stores In the west, was not a candidate for re-election. He wilt hold office, the only one to which he ever sought election, until next January. He is a Republican. The Republican race for the guber natorial nomination, likewise, held the elements of excitement, with five candidates active in the field. They were Joe E. Dunne and Frank J. Lonergan of Portland, and Sam H. Brown of Gervals, all state senators; Rufua C. Holman of Portland, state treasurer, and Ulysses Grant Mc Alexander of Newport, West Point classmate of Martin and, like the congressman, a retired major general of the United States army. Many Seek Congress Seats Nomination by each party for three congressional posts drew a field of 17 candidates. In the third congressional (Multnomah county) district five Republicans and four Democrats were trying for the office which Congressman Martin Is leav ing. In the first (Western Oregon) district, Congressman Mott, Republi can, was opposed within his party by J. M. Devers, attorney for the highway commission, while three Democrats, W. A. Delzell of Salem, John D. Goss of Marshfleld, and R. R. Turner of Dallas sought that nom ination. Congressman Pierce waa unopposed j for the Democratic nomination In 1 the second (Eastern Oregon)' district. f Either State Senator Jay H, Upton j of Bend, or Judge David F. Graham of Vale will battle with Pierce In the general election next November. UNEARTH REMAINS OF 2 INDIANS IN ORCHARD TABLE nof'iC, May 18. (Spl.)
