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.

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.
