The Convention waa summoned by tho organization de¬ partment of the American Jewish Congress, where 'an appeal will be made to the Jewish masses in seventeen Jewish coniraunifies througliout tho State of Ohio that they register for tho defense of Jewish -Tights and unite against Hitleriam.

All but non-Aryans were forbidden to en¬ ter Jewish stores. Aryans who defied the boycott and ran the gauntlet of pickets, who number 30 or more to each block, found them¬ selves roughly handled by the crowds gathered to watch , the "fun." A number of Aryans, in eluding a Catholic, were forced to parade through the streets wearing signs reading "i have bought from a Jewish shop." An aged non- Jewish woman ,'vvho was seen emergirig from a Jewish store was similarly treated and compelled to' .march several blocks carrying a sandwich sign reading, "this swine bought from a-Jew," and ."stupid, vulgar jieople still buy from Jews. The Whole Jewish quarter was emblazoned with placards and posters warning "Aryans, do not buy from Jews." The windows of inany Jewish shops were smeared with the word "J'ew" in three-foot red letters. In a number bf streets Jewish proprietors and Jewish em¬ ployes were compelled to picket their own establishments holding up ^igns,.. "don't buy from Jews, buy from Aryans." Chief Rabbi Is¬ rael-Taglicht was also forced to picket a Jewish shop, ha'ving been stopped by N'azis while returning from syriagogue services. He was relieved aft;er'a little whilo .when the pickets allowed another Jew to take his place. reds after having been ruthlessly expelled from their native vIllageB and refused permission to cross the frontier into Yugoslavia, Hun¬ gary nnd Czechoslovakia waa voiced by Jewish medical authori¬ ties hero after an investigation had revealed the plight of the refugees. The number of refugees from Bur¬ genland is Increasing dally as moro and more towns there hoist whito flags to signalize tho complcto elimination of Jews. With lho Vienna Jc*s finding it increasing¬ ly difficult to provide food for themselves and, their families tho additional burden of tbe Burgen¬ land refugees has created a crisis. The fear of an outbreak.of diaeaae grows' out of the fact that many of the refugees are sharing already overcrowded quarters, in somo in¬ stances 15 persons living In one room. : . ' Equally pitiful ia the plight of those Jews who have not been ex¬ pelled froni Burgenland village* but who have been deprived of their property and all means of existence. Jewish shops have been closed and Aryan shopkeepers have been warned not to sell to Jews. The Jewish residents are forbid¬ den to leave the limits of the town and must depend on the charity of Christian neighbors or tho secret sale of what personal ,property they: have left. Reporta from tho frontier indicate the tragic eltua- tion of the refugees. Several hun¬ dred who sought admisaion to Yugosla'via are still being held on the; frontier pending: instructions from Belgrade. A few have found sanctuary in the Oroszar. castlo in Hungary owned by the 74-year-old Princess Stephanie Lonyai. Meanwhile the Nazis in Vienna The launching of the boycott, Ua^a intensified their policy ol which began without any legal ioroing Jews to do menial labor.

Doherty, nationni commander of tho Ameri¬ can Legion, in commenting on the riot that caused injuries to eight members of the Legion at a New York meeting" of the Gerrtian-Am- crican Bund. Asserting that "apathy and indifference aro de¬ mocracy's greatest dangers," Do¬ herty declared that no attempt was made to prevent the New York niectlng, which was in honor of Hitler's birthday. "Wo are con¬ tent,"-he said, "to ait idly by while an element in our population, speaking a foreign language, wav¬ ing a swastika flag and dressed in foreign uniforina, nieeta to hon¬ or the; head of another nation, a man who is crushing out religion with purges and tho tiring squad." Silver Shirts And Townsiend Movement Join Forces > PASADENA, CALIF. (WNS)— Evidence that, the Townserid old age pension movement had joined forces with the Silver Shirts, the German-American Bund and other anti-Semitic groups came to light here when Henry Alien, a known Fascist and Silver Shirt' leader, harangued a Townsend meeting in a public school building. AUen, who is "a member bf the Townsend movement, niade an open plea for Fascism in America while his wife distributed ,the leaflets that have been thrown from rooftops of Los Angeles . buildings,, captioned, "Jcws!:Jews!

Out with theae Jews who are being freely admitted into this country by Madame Perkinsky and Red Ro'ose- ,velt. An alien power connived to defeat the Townsend plan. Jewa are responsible for.ha'ving pub Dr. Townsend in jaiL Hull gave our foreign markets to the foreign Jewa.

At the same' time preparations: were stared for.purging books by non*. Aryans in the world famous Aus¬ trian National Library J and in other publie and private libraries. A list of books to be removed and burned from among the 1,200,000 volumes in the National Library was sent to thb Chief librarian by the Nazi authorities. The titles and authors of- the proscribed books wero not made public but it is expected that the Nazi literary aUto-da-fe will use as fuel the works of Felix Salten, Sigmund Freud, Franz , Werfel, Stefan Sweig, Vicki Baum, Thomaa Mann, Jacob Waaserman, Lion Feucht; wanger, Emil Ludwig and many others whose books have already been removed from bookshops, Meariwhile, the minister of edu¬ cation decreed a 2% limit on the proportion of Jewish students to be admitted to the : universities, Affectlvo with the current aemes- ter, the decree obliges aU students to address' reqiiests for admission. to the, executive, authorities of the schools who are instructed to act en each application individually. To. aimpltfy the Ary^riiSation of Vienna busirieas, which ia the chief motive for. the anti-Jewiah boycott, General, Goering haa signed a de¬ cree forbidding the camouflage of Jewish ownership of a business under pain of one year in prison. The authorities also expelled 40 Jewish orphans ranging in age from six months to 14 yeai?a from the Tuerkenschanze Klriderheim. Thirty other children were given 4S hours to leave. The release of a number of lead¬ ers of the Vienna Jewish Commun¬ ity from prison was attributed to the intei-vention of a British dele. gation that came here to negotiate with the authorities concerning the reopening of the Palestino'Office and extension of the Gei-raan-Pal estine transfer agreement to Aus. tria. Dr. Desidcr Friedmann, pres¬ ident of the Community, who was among those released, was re-ar¬ rested shortly after his return to Vienna and was sent to a prison camp near Salzburg. , Dr. Robert Strieker, 2^ionist leadei", is one of tho Community -leaders, atill held In the Dachau concentration camp.
