Plans for the formation of a
volunteer forest fire protection
unit, to be composed of civilians
who would be available in case
of extreme emergencies for
work vital in the protection of
valuable timber, were announc
ed today by M. L. Tedrow, fire
assistant for the Rogue River
National forest.
Tedrow said that those volun
teering would be subject to call
only in cases of dire emergency.
for duty as special guards, pa
trols, truck drivers, packers,
pump operators, lookouts, smoke
chasers, fire foremen, cooks and
first aid men. He added that
volunteers with experience in
the woods would be extremely
welcome. All volunteers, he said,
would receive payment com
mensurate with the time they
put in and the type of work
they did.
Want Businessmen
Business men who might be
more readily available for duty
as volunteers will be preferred
over laborers and those working
for others, who might not be
able to arrange to leave their
regular employment, Tedrow
stated.
Those wishing to volunteer
for this highly important service
.are urged to contact, before
I July 1, either Tedrow in the
forest service office in the fed
eral building or rangers at any
of the ranger stations in the
district.

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.
