265,000 JEWS STILL IN REICH FEEL NAZI HEEL

Verboten’ Makes Daily Life Dull With Peril of Arrest Near.

(First of a series)

By DANA A. SCHMIDT United Préss Staff Correspondent . BERLIN, Aug. 24—The Jews re‘maining in Germany today are living in a state of isolation and dissolution, figuratively with their bags - packed, with pressure on them to leave, yet for the most part unable to do so. There are still about 265, 000 Jews in the Old Reich. Since 1933 about ..8 quarter of a million have emigrated to every country on earth. The 120,000 Jews in Berlin are little seen now. Most are spending «the hot summer days quietly in their crowded flats—now more often than *not inhabited by several families. In their daily lives they do well to keep

.A Jew may not go to a movie, . theater, concert, z00, museum, publie library, swimming pool, or playing field. A Jew may not go to a public school or university, nor may he patronize an “aryan” physician or hospital except in an emergency. He may not drive a motor car. Almost all restaurants display “Jews not desired” signs, excepting “four or five -constantly-crowded ‘cafes which are “only for Jews.” A decree in May ruled that Jews may not live in houses inhabited also by “aryans” if any other place is available. This has resulted in a great deal of doubling up siong Jews, since | housing shortage - general in Germany, and has precipitated at Jeast one instance of physical violence—relatively rare since last autumn. In this instance a middle-aged husband and wife with a 13-year-old hoy were dragged from their three-room flat and hurled down the stairs by neighbors determined to expedite their departure. They now spend the - nights with friends. The boy has been sent to relatives in France.

Can Use Public Vehicles

A Jew may ride on any public vehicle—excepting the dining cars of trains—but there is little point in his doing so unless he is leaving the country or going to some specifically Jewish destination. If ailing he might, according to a recent «decision of the minister of the interior, visit a curative bath, where he would have to take his baths before or after the other guests, use designated rooms, be excluded from gardens, dining rooms and the like. "There has not been a rush to take advantage of this dispensation. It is important also that a Jew remember to do certain things: Men must use “Israel” and women “ “Sara” as first or second name in all official or business dealings. All

Planned ‘Purchase’ For $75,000.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 24 (U.P) — Henry D. Allen, Pasadena, Cal. liaison man for so-called Fascist organizations, told the Dies Committee today that Mrs. Leslie Fry of Glendale, Cal, thought last year she might “buy” the Ku-Klux Klan for. $75,000.

Allen, as agent of Mrs. Fry, testified that he visited Imperial Wizard Hiram Evans in Atlanta last year, but did not go beyond discussing a revival of the Klan on the West Coast—a suggestion . Evans turned down. “Mrs. Fry desired in some way to is | get control of the Rlan,” Allen said. “She seemed to have the idea that Mr. Evans would sell the membership list for a price. There was a vague mention that she thought the thing could be arranged for $75,000.”

Named as Klan Leaders

Allen named Charles Slocombe of Long Beach and L. B. Baker of Fresno as Klan leaders in California.

to George Deatherage from Clayton F. Ingalls of San Francisco, which said that “every organization must be dissolved and be remolded into the army machine which we must build” and that “we must secretly spread our web of leadership.” “In view of this German-Russian alliance,” interposed Chairman Martin Dies (D. Tex.), “don’t you think, you'll have to take the Communists in your organization, too?” “I don’t know about that,” Allen rejoined.

Claims Sympathy

Rep. H. Jerry Voorhis (D. Cal.) aske dhim why Capt. Red Hines, former head of the radical squad of the Los Angeles Police Department, addressed a meeting of the American White Guard, an organization

. those older than 15 must remember which succeeded the Silver Shirts for

to carry the big gray identification card with the “J” on the cover at all times, and show it—without be--ing asked—when approaching any public official, at the same time announcing “Jew,” of “Jewess.” A -Jewish woman recently was fined 30 marks, because, at a police station, she did not show her card a second time when passing from the anteroom into an inner office.

Barred From All Trade

But most significant and stifling are the laws which say that a Jew may not engage in any retail or wholésale trade, any profession, or any handicraft. For many this is a prohibition of making a living at all. They live on dwindling savings, heavily reduced by instalments on the $400,000,000 fine levied for the murder of Ernst vom Rath, the last of which, bringing the total capital levy to 20 per cent, was aid Aug. 15. Regular German taxes are a further burden, since all Jews must pay them as though they were single, regardless of the size of their family. ~ About 60,000 Old Reich Jews are “understood. to depend on charity, . which the Jewish Community itself must provide. "An increasing number of others have, however, been rescued by the Third Reich’s labor shortage. A special Jewish labor exchange has - thus fdr assigned work to something like 10,000, although no official figures are obtainable. Most are put to manual labor in closed ‘groups, apart from “aryans,” on highway and building jobs, but a smaller number are actually back in old surroundings, in tailoring and dressmaking shops, in offices as typists, and in the stockrooms or stores.

Wages Generally the Same

Generally they are paid the same wages as are “aryans,” but there ‘ have been petty discriminations, as when a Cologne Labor Court ruled last month that, although “aryans” must be paid on Adolf Hitler's birthday, a national holiday, a Jew may not be paid, “because he has no reason to celebrate the Fuehrer’s .~ birthday.” Despite the pressure, Jews obviously do not live 4n fear for their lives. But many do fear what might

heads have dropped veiled threats about “doing away with all Jews in time of war, and more wellmeaning authorities occasionally . have advised Jews to lay in a sup- “ ply of food against the possibility that they would be first to suffer * from war-time food shortage.

INSURANCE QUIZ PUSHED WASHINGTON, Aug. 24 (U. P). ~The National Monopoly Investigating Committee today called offiA of the Monumental Life In‘surance Co. to explain the growth of the firm since it became the coun- * try’s first purveyor of industrial n. surance in 1858.

a time, as Allen testified. “Was he in sympathy with ‘its aims?” Rep. Voorhis asked. “He certainly was,” said Allen, ‘or else he never would have spoken to them.” Meantime, the Committee sought to subpena Willlam Dudley Pelley, head of the Silver Shirts, after recommending prosecution of a witness accused of attempting to “sabotage” the inquiry in his behalf. Questioning of the witness, Fraser Gardner of Washington, self-styled “political research” man, revealed that the Committee does not know Mr. Pelley’s present whereabouts.
