Harvest 4i Johns - Man. - 68 'i Kennecott 37 14 29 By Louis P. Lochner New York, June 12 (Wide World) Because of Adolf Hit ler's blind hatred, the Jew is a marked man wherever Nazism holds sway. The yellow six-pointed star with the German word "Jude" or its Czech or Dutch or other foreign language equivalent points him out as a person who must be avoided. In Nazi Germany the treat ment of the Jew has alternated between broken promises and spdistic cruelty. That the Jew would be removed from public office and possibly also dislodg ed from cultural positions of in fluence, once the Nazis came into power, was apparent long before Adolf Hitler took over on Jan. 30. 1933. Barred From Shops The Nazis themselves, how ever, were careful to say that the Jew could continue in busi ness. Soon he was not only bar red from every form of busi ness and his property virtually confiscated. Today he is unable even to go into a shop except during certain hours, and then only if there is no sign to the effect that "we don't sell to Jews." Restaurants are closed to the Jew. If he is found in a movie performance or at a concert or in a theater, the concentration camp is certain for him. In 1934 the so-called Nurn- berg laws defining the status of tho Jew were passed by the reichstag during the Nazi party annual convention. The laws were stringent, but the Jew thought that at least now there was a clearly defined basis for his further existence in the reich. Beyond Pale The Nurnberg laws have long been put in the discard except when it is possible to invoke them to the disfavor of the Jew. The plain fact is that the Jew stands beyond ' the pale of any law. Until quite recently, he still had the comforting thought in wrae cases that the firm in whose services he had grown grey would continue to pay him Ui" pension accorded all faithful workers on reaching th retire ment age. But last March 25. Hitler de creed that all firms must report what pensions they still pay Jews. Everyone acquainted with Nazi practices knew instinctive ly that this foreshadowed the cancellation of pensions for Jews. The extraordinary powers voted to Hitler by the reichstag April 26, whereby he can do anything he pleases without even the semblance of due pro cess of law, confirmed this fear. Marked Men It now comes to this: Any Jew appearing on the streets is marked by Jew-star band. If he waits for a street car, his Aryan fellow commuters have the right to climb into the ve hicle first. Since all cars are crowded In wartime during rush hours because of the exceeding ly limited service, the Jew might as well give up hope of securing transportation. He is not al lowed to take a taxi; and he is not permitted to enter a railway train except with special per mit. But supposing he had the rare MERCHANT SHIP GETS SUBMARINE Havana, June 12 (AP A United States merchant ship rammed, shelled and apparently sank a submarine which had machine-gunned her as she was nearing a Cuban port about ten days ago, press dispatches from a Cuban coastal city said today. The submarine surfaced a few miles offshore. Two men came up on deck and immediately be gan machine-gunning the U. S. ship. Artillerymen aboard the Amer ican ship replied, with two of their shots striking the conning tower. The captain then put his ship across the submarine and the success of his maneuver was ap parent when a great oil slick welled up to the surface. Reports from the coastal city said only one of the American crew was injured by the sub's machine-gun fire.
