It was suggested that moat of the missing fighting ships were headed for the Mediterranean and the defenses of the Suez canal. As though In confirmation of this report, a number of fighting craft, without announcement, suddenly showed up at Gibraltar. By admiralty orders, apparently, the boom which Is used for defense was swung out across the southern entrance to Admiralty harbor. Just as was done last week at Malta.

(AP) The spe cial session of the state legislature will be called Immediately upon re ceipt of word from Washington on what action Is taken on the state's application for a. grant and loan of $750,000 for the purchase of the Wil lamette university campus as addi tional ground for the new capltol. "I will call the session at once when we hear from Washington and the date of that call will naturally depend upon the speed with which Washington officials consider tho re quest," Governor Martin said. The governor declared he had no opportunity as yet to look over the attorney general's opinion which held the site of the new capltol must be confined within the old Salem city limits, which would eliminate the hill sites which the governor was to propose to the legislature as alter nate recommendations to the Wil lamette suggestion. The opinion might not stand the test of the courts, the executive suggested. He said he would go into the matter thoroughly. The governor had before him a large drawing of the proposed capl tol as it would appear on Candalarla Heights, the hill site favored by the executive. He said he had not given up the proposal and hoped the people of Oregon would "build for the fu ture and not place the new structure on the small two and half acre tract where It formerly stood." Martin was In his office for the first time in a week today after he had returned from a tour or eastern Oregon. He voiced pleasure at condi tions in that section of the country and declared the people there had no use for the "labor racketeers, nor for people who refused to work but were on relief."

By l.ouls P. Lochner (Associated Press Foreign Staff) NURNBERG. Germany. Sept. 18, ( AP) The Reichstag of Adolf Hit ler today relegated Jews in the Ger many of the future to their posi tion during the middle ages. They may not become citizens, intermarry with Aryans, have inti mate relations with Gentiles nor even employ Aryan servant girls un der 45 years of age. The Third Reich of ths Future, by unanimous decision of the 60U Hitler followers who make up trie Reichstag, will be one in which Aryan citizens who "by their atti tude indicate they are willing and fit to serve faithfully the people and the Reich" will be separated sharply from "belongera to TTTe state." l-aws Adopted Legislation embodying these points was passed last night amid scenes of unexampled patriotic fervor and approbation for the course Hitler ha chosen to pursue atrietly along the lines laid down In the original Nazi program. These acts Inspired Der Fuehrer's followers with the hope that the reat of the Nazi teneta would be translated into practical politics, step by step. Just as fast as polit ical expediency permitted. Before hearing addresses by Hitler and General Wilhelm Goerlng. the Reichstag itself gave a practical ex pression of Its belief in the author ity of Nazi principles. It empowered Goerlng. as leader of the Reichstag, to summon it into session at will until a new set of by-laws, embodying "leadership" principles, ha been evolved ana adopted.
