Bund Leader Says Nazis Plan To Name Congress Candidates
NEW YORK (WNS)—The Ger¬ man-American Bund will enter the national and city elections in the fall as an independeiVt political party, in association '"with other American patriotic associations, including a prominent American veterans' group on a platform that "mil carry no plank of anti-Semi¬ tism," James Wheeler-Hill, hation-T- al secretary of the Bund, told the- New York Journal-American. D.is- claiming' all allegiance to the Hit¬ ler regime, Wheeler-Hill told thc Hearst daily that itts candidates would, "light to.stamp out Com¬ munism." "We will probably, have candidates for the city .council in the local elections; and for Con¬ gress in the national, elections," he said.', "This is' not an: attempt to establish a Nazi Party in the United States. Nazism is, only good for Germany and there it should stay."
Sitting in the Bund offices be-: neath two pictures, ^of Hitler and a big swastika, Wheeler-Hill Iioast- ed that his organization has 180,- 000 members and ^ISS^OOO in diies' coming in each Inonth. "We are not N'azis," he said, "we are Ameri-; cans. Nazism is not for export. It applies purely to Germany. But Germans in this country are being attacked by a Jewiah boycott, "We are going to fight." '
NEW YORK (WNS)—Former President Hoover bluntly told Chancellor Hitler that tho United States "never will become rtcon.- oiled to understanding or evon having tho slightest tolerance for Nazism as a political and nation¬ al creed," Pierre J. Huss, Berlin correspondent of International News Service, declares in report¬ ing on the meeting of Hoover and Hitler. Mr. Huss' dispatch reads aa follows; *
"For the first timo in bis career, Adolf Hitler heard from an Ameri¬ can statesman a forthright de¬ nunciation of Nazism as a practical and enduring forco in world af¬ fairs. Tha detractor, speaking straight from the shoulder, was Herbert Clark Hoover, thirty- first Preaident of the United States, who spont forty minutes in private audience with the Fuehrer. Hitler barred Hoover's personal press at¬ tache from tho meeting, but'a re¬ liable source revealed to this cor¬ respondent their conversation de¬ veloped into one of the most re¬ markable ideological clashes in recent timea. Hoover bluntly in¬ formed Hitler the United States never will become reconciled to understanding or even having the', slightest tolerance for Nazism aa a political and national creed. He. declared further American demo¬ cratic ideals reject the fundamental principles on which tho Nazi re¬ gime is based and on which it flourishes. Hoover, according to this well-informed source, went so far as to even boldly intimate his own doubts as to durability of the Nazi ideoWgy within the bordera of Germany itself. Hoover ex¬ pressed keen interest in the Ger¬ man housing program. The Fu6b- rer thereupon painted a glowing picture of Nazi progress within tho past five yeara. Hitler tobk occa¬ sion to reassert the peaceful aims of the Nazi regime, while insis; ihg on Germany's 'itight to fi" cqualityo It was during this stage of tho conversation that Hoover reportedly voiced his own strong opinions  about  Nazism.

Mr, Sokolsky alao. declared that "as a matter of fact, Americana grow increasingly: ' resentful gainst any supporters of European 'iams' in this country,' The atmos¬ phere .is. much like that which surrounded hyphenates during the war. The American Jew must face these fucLa and this atmos¬ phere realistically.

of living for tho mass in place of poverty nnd distress. Insecurity, he warned, 13 fatal to industry while vast sums are needed for tho protection of life and .property whieh might be used for other pur¬ poses: .
Without committing, himself or ref erring to the proposed partition . scheme for Palestine, the ' High Commlsaioiier neveflhelesa indicat¬ ed hia interest in the piroject aa a basis for reoonciliallpii between Jews and Arabs, even among the extreme partisans. He Wniitted that the form of -tho amendent which would provide a basia lor reconciliation'has aroiised differ¬ ences. "But I. would urgo that in the discussion of ways and meana one point ahould not bo overlooked: namely, but for the British people neither party to tho dispute wonld have a. chanco of gaining even a moiety of what they want. We do ' not need to speculate on thc results for cither Jewa or Arabs if thero had not been a strong power un¬ moved by, a vision of aggrandize¬ ment, and continuing to give its support to what they want."
Tho British Empire, he stressed, is strong and can defend itself and thoso to^whom it offers protection. It is not hungry for conquest and not filled with envy for aggran¬ dizement. All that it desires is peace and security. "Its own in¬ terests coincide with youra," ho told Palestinians. "They may bo summed up aa safeguarding in¬ terests vital'to Britain and to thi safety of the protagonista living in the country." He concluded by
Thursday. Within a half hour after the High Commissioner had closed his broadciist, a number of shots were fired in tho vicinity of Tal¬ pioth, Jeruaalem suburb which is adjacent to Government House, tho residence of the High' Comniis- aipner. ' >
Tho .High Commissioner pledged himself to the maintenance of law and o.rdfir during his radio address.. Outlining the proposed basis of his adminiatration, Sir Harold in¬ voked the assistance of Palestine'a inhabitants in his difficult task. His "first duty," he declared, "is
to maintain ;the, King's authority
through the firm establishment of
law and order, which is hot only
implicit ih tho terms of the Man¬ date but is^ most imperative in the
interests    of the    inhabitants of
Palestine, the .British Empire and
the welfare of the world looking
to the Holy City.'' After paying
tribute to the military officers in I saying that he would bo actuated
Palestine whom he said he would by good faith and an honest en-
support fully, Sir Harold stated there niust be many of every creed and nationality wSo deplored the affairs now disgracing the coun¬ try. "Whetheir they aro few or many," ho addedv "those who. are on the side pf. peace deserve all ¦help..iVe miist particularly cleanse publie opinion by permitting the general restoration of a perspective o;f sanity and by the creation of an atmosphere of reconciliation, enabling all to settle do\«h to an orderly life.''
There will be no slackening in the efforts for the development of the country Sir Harold assured his .liateners,. but added that it is Ob¬ vious that "the pace of progress is hampered and will .continue .to- be hampered owing to the lack of security and good will." But Pales¬ tine, he dcclaredj eanriot be saved, merely by economic processes. The return to normality wiH be helped by finding opportunities for and. the substitution of tlie plowshare instead bf the sword and by'.pro¬ viding work and a higher standard

He asked his listeners to ponder on "what advantage either party can gain by a perpetuation of a dan¬ gerous tension, at ths risk of alienting the sympathy of a peo¬ ple who gave practical proofs of their consistent friendlinesa."
