Madison Square Garden, the Ath-

ed of the boycott. Word has been
received from all parts of the
country that the boycott senti-
ment is strong everywhere. Brad-
dock and his manager have de-
clared they will not fight Schmel-
ing if the boycott is persisted in.
They have also indicated that they
will not be a party to any scheme
to shift the bout to Berlin to get
around the boycott. Among the
organizations backing the boycott
are the Jewish Was Veterans,
various Catholic and Protestant
groups, the Friends of Democracy,
the American Federation of La-
bor, the Cleveland League for
Human Rights and the Chicago
Committee for Defense of Human
Rights. The boycott plan calls
for the distribution of literature,
newspaper advertisements, word
of mouth propaganda and other
means to arouse public opinion
against the bout which would net
hundreds of thousands of dollars
for the German fighter.

Nazis Unloose Barrage
BERLIN (WNS) — A violent
barrage has been unloosed in the
Nazi press as a result of the or-
ganization of a boycott in the
United States against the Brad-
dock-Schmeling fight by the Non-
Sectarian Anti-Nazi League. The
official German news agency car-
ried a dispatch from New York
declaring that members of the
League are the "most iniquitous
Jews of New York City" and as-
serting that the boycott was =H.
voted by the fear that Schmeling
might win the championship. The
dispatch also said that "the boy-
cott expresses bitter hatred, im-
potent rage and envy of the Jew-
mob which has been forced to
recognize that its boycott of Ger-
man goods has failed." The An-
gruff reports from New York that
the boycott is "malicious and
crazy" while the Nachtausgabe
says that "racially conscious
Americans are too much interested
in the outcome of the battle of
their countryman against Schmel-
ing to permit the Jewish Marxists
gang to cheat them out of this
sport event."
Schmeling himself issued an ap-
pear to American fair play, as-
serting "I believe the American
public is too fair to be influenced
by a political campaign against
a sportsman like me who never
went in for politics."

Jews are "Christ•Killers"—Theme
of French Film Shown in N. Y.
NEW YORK (WNS) — "Gol-
gotha, a French-produced pic-
ture dealing with the life of Jesus
and in which the keynote is that
Jews are "Christ-killers" is being
shown privately in New York in
anticipation of public exhibition
early in February. The film is
being distributed by the Golgotha
Corporation, 620 Fifth Ave., and
the exhibition is being handled by
a Captain George McCloud
Baynes. The picture is expensive-
ly produced and contains music.
The conviction and imprison-
ment of Erich Herman Krbger,
an American citizen, in Germany
on a charge of rassenschande
without representation by counsel
is being protested to the State
Department and the German con-
sulate in New York by Joseph
Goldstein, counsel to the Volun-
teer Public Defender Committee
of Kings County. Kruger was ar-
rested in Bremen in December
1935 and convicted last April and
sentenced to 16 months in prison.

they are attending the second
Youth International Baptist Con-
gress in Zurich, Switzerland, has
been communicated to him by the

negen's attention is called to per-

in Germany and he is urged not
to give comfort to those who are
assailing Ch., imenity by taking
Baptists into Germany. It is un-
derstood that Dr. Jarnegen has
received similar protests from
many prominent American Chris-
tian groups.
