GAINS OF G.O.P.
MODERATES BEEN
SUCCESS OP SOME OLD
GUARDS A COMPLICATION
EVENLY MATCHED FACTIONS
SEEKING PARTY CONTROL
TAFT OF OHIO DECLARED
TOP PRESIDENTIAL CHOICE
toarhtnOTON. Nov. 11. The elec
tion returns have revived the Repub
lican party from a long catalepsy.
All the golna obviously necessary to
bring the party back to life new
house aeate, new governorships, new
places In the senate have been
handsomely achieved. But the fut
ure of the Republican party remains
extremely unsettled.
. Had Herbert Lehman felled to nose
out Thomas E. Dewey In New York,
the Republican future would have
been easily predictable. Then control
of the party would have passed
wholly Into the hands of men like
Dewey. CAbot Lodge and Lev Salton
stall In Massachusetts. Payne Ratner
and Clyde Reed In Kansas, and the
others who stand for a realistic liberal-conservative
and shrewd politi
cal compromise. Almost Inevitably,
Dewey himself would have been the
party candidate In 1040.
But, unhappily for those who
think that the compromisers and
realists are the Republican white
hopes, the party's two. most conspic
uous successes were In Pennsylvania
and Michigan. In these two great In
dustrial states, over the violent op
position of labor and the whole new
deal front, the governorships were
captured by Judge Arthur H. James
and Frank D. Fitzgerald. It would
be hard to deny the title of reac
tionary to either man. Both were
openly backed by the die-hard ele
ment of big business. Both waged
campaigns which had ft strong anti
labor flavor. Both shouted the old
Republican slogans about "regimen
tation." "spending." and "dictator
ship." which men like Dewey end
SaJtonstall were so careful to play
down.
While James undoubtedly owes his
"lection to reaction agnlnat the dis
gusting brand of government offer
ed by Pennsylvania Democrats,
neither James nor Fitzgerald can be
laughed off. Indeed. If It were not
for certain drawbacks, both men
would be In commanding positions
with respect to 1940.

Thousands Seized Follow
ing Wave of Anti-Jewish
Violence Goebbels
Warns Semitics of World
BERLIN, Nov. 11. (AP) Secret
police arrested an undetermined
number of Jews of the upper classes
today as well-informed Nazis predict
ed restoration of the Ghetto would
follow yesterday's wave of antl-Jewlsh
violence In Germany.
Jews estimated between 700 and
1,000 members of their race had been
seized In Berlin since yesterday. Ad
ditional arrests In Munich brought
the total there to an estimated 1,400
while several thousand more Jews
were reported In custody in various
parts of the nation.
Propaganda Minister Paul Joseph
Goebbels said new restrictions for
Jews would be Issued shortly and
warned the conduct of Jews outside
Germany aa well as that of those In
side the country would Influence
Germany's future racial policy.
Americans Protest
Three American Jews, whose names
were withheld, were among a number
of foreign Jews who protested to
their consulates against the destruc
tion of their stores In yesterday's
demonstrations. Pour Netherlands
Jews and an unstated number of
British Jews likewise asked the assis
tance of their respective consulates.
Speaking for 46 minutes to the
foreign press, Goebbels said yester
day's antl-Jewlsh outburst, which
vented Itself In the burning and
dynamiting of synagogues and de
struction of Jewish shops, was spon
taneous. :
"Whenever any unsavory elements
even made a move to seize goods
there were always reasonable people
about to prevent It," Goebbels said.
He Insisted there was no looting.
Trustworthy eyewitnesses yesterday
said they had seen shops In the Ar
cade . between Frledrlchstraase and
Unter den Linden and In other parts
of the city looted.
Not Organized
Goebbels, referring to such ac
counts, said he did not doubt the
good faith of the eyewitnesses, but
observed that in law courts It Is often
established three different eyewit
nesses, all honorable characters, re
port the same event differently.
Goec-bels argued the very fact that
the demonstrations occurred in dif
ferent citlea and took the same form
showed that they were not organized
but represented the primitive reac
tions of the common people.
"When the death of von Rath oc
curred (the slaying of Ernest von
Rath, a secretary of the German em
bassy. In Paris by a Polish Jew)
everybody with a knowledge of the
nstlon's psychology knew something
would happen," Goebbels asserted.

PRODUCTION OF APPLES
IN WESTERN TERRITORY
EXPECTED TO DECLINE
WASHINGTON, Nov. 11. (AP)
The bureau of agricultural econom
Ica concluded this week that a peak
had ' been readied In western apple
production.
"Henceforth." It said, "the trend
la expected io be downward."
The bureau's conclusion was par
ticularly significant to the Pacific
northwest growers, because they pro
duce the bulk of the western apple
crop.
Officials said the downward trend
might mean the beginning of the
end of . bothersome surpluses that
have plagued apple growers for many
vears. as more and more area was
brought Into production.
The bureau noted the falling off
in production In the western states
after seversl yesrs of fslrly stable
yield, amounting to about 80.000.000
bushels.
The decline In total yield In th
western states will be accompanied,
the bureau said, by a similar falling
off of production In other regions.
A nation-wide survey, it said, had
indicated light plantings of new trees
and a smaller number of replace
ments of old ones.
If plantings and replacements
continue aa light aa the last several
years, apple production 10 to 18
years hence may be lower then the
average of recent yearn." the bureau
said.

LARGEST PARADE
IN RECENT YEARS
Chill Fails to Cut Attend
ance for Annual March
Colorful Units Reviewed
by Thousands On Curbs
One of the largest parades In re
cent years marked the start . of the
American Legion's Armistice uay
celebration hero this morning.
As skies cleared and the sun
peered down on ft frigid city, thous
ands of spectstom lined the streets
to see the colorful procession. The
public turned out from all parts
of southern Oregon to observe the
signing of the armistice that 30
years ago today terminated the most
savage war the world has ever wit
nessed, a war that cost at least
seven and a half million lives and
close to two hundred billion dollars.
It was one of the coldest Armistice
days on record here, but the frosty
air only served to add rest to the
celebration. Practically every organi
zation in Medford and several In the
county took part In the parade to
pay homage to World war veterans
and to commemorate the armistice
that brought peace to ft war-weary
world.
Many Veterans March
The World war veterans them
selves participated in larger num
bers than in any Armistice Day pro
cenBlon of recent years. The toll of
20 years was manifest .Bthformer
soldiers : marched ' along with 'stiff
and ageing strides though with the
same gay spirit generated by the
signing of the armistice two oecaaea
ago. Just 30 short years ago the men
were youths fighting to make the
world safe for democracy; today they i
are middle-aged men fighting to j
make the world safe for peace. i
Spectators could not help but note
the contrast between the veterans
and the men of Medford's two na
tional guard companies. The national
guniUsn.cn were about the same age
the veterans when they were i
fighting for democracy 30 years ago.
Unlike the veterans, the guardsmen
marched along with snappy, military
precision, their figures slender and
croct. their tread sure and firm.
The horror and anxiety of war
iiIbo were reflected In the Gold Star
Mothers whose sons did not come
home.
But today all signs of aniiety were
gone, for this was a festive occasion
celebrating the end of war. The
parade was gay and colorful and
the spirit of Joy prevailed.
Colorful units In the procession
were the bands and drum corps of
the senior and Junior high schools
and lodges in their bright .regalia.
A notable addition to the parade
this year was the Jacksonville high
school band, attired In new brilliant
uniforms of scarlet and white, and
led by beautiful white-clad ma
jorette. Col. Fletcher Marshal
Grand marshal waa Col. Harvey H.
Fletcher, regular army officer com
manding the Medford CCC district.
Behind him marched his staff of
CCC officers. . -All
the United States war veteran
organisations and their affiliates
were represented. Clubs, lodges,
granges, religious and other organisa
tions participated.
Business was at ft practical stand
still, governmental offices, stores and
banks being closed for the day In
observance of the national holiday.
After the parade the Dugout was
opened in Dreamland hall on Bast
Main street, where free luncheon was
served until 1 o'clock to all ei-
eervlce men.
At 1 o'clock the Dugout was open
c-d. to the general public for a stag
entertainment and get-together. It
was to remain open to all men until
this evening.
Iianee Tonight-
Climactic event of the day was to
be the annual American Legion

festive spirit of the original Armis
