German Students Political-Minded There is more intellectual inter- est and less social interest among the students of Germany as com- pared to American University stand- ards, according to Professor Wood. They are all political-minded, and take violent sides on current politi- cal questions. Most of the students are Nazis, Professor Wood declared. Citing a course in journalism as an Roosevelt, Farley Discess Patronage ALBANY, N. Y., Feb. 24.-("P)-- lresident-Elect R o o s e v e l t called James A. Farley, Democratic national chairman and master of patronage, to his side today to make final de-. cision on the multitude of appoint- ments necessary to put the new Dem- ocratic government into operation March 4. The President-elect to all effects completed his cabinet Thursday night with the announcement that George H. Dern, former governor of Utah, would be his secretary of war. He also gave a surprise with the statement that Representative Lewis Douglas, yo'uthful Arizona advocate' of economy in government, would be his new budget director. Douglas led the economy drive in the house and will be relied upon by Roosevelt to use the ax on government expendi- tures in the sveeping reorganization he plans. Before leaving - here today, Mr . Roosevelt got in touch with- Farley and invited him to go on to Hyde Park, where the next President prob- ably will remain for most of the time before going 'to Washington for in- auguration. Mayor James M.- Curley of Boston, is one of the Roosevelt intimates on the list' for appointment to high 0ffice. The President-Clect came here Thursday night to attend the an- nual dinner of the Legislative Cor-' respondents' association. He called first at the executive mansion where he and Mrs. Roosevelt were guests of Gov. and Mrs. Herbert Lehman at tea. cxample, lac said that while in AmCr- ica students were taught the nore technical points of journalism, Frie- burg students were learning to be po- litical writcrs. well informed in the' iuations both in Europe anad America. . ! 'cncing duels no longer exist in Gcrmai universities, however, there is a certain amount of student so- cial life. They spend a great deal of their time in reading. according toI Professor Wood, but when they take{ a girl out, the girl always pays her own xvay. German Students Poor, Too When asked whether there were any students "living in attics on two dollars a week," Professor Wood de- clared that many of them were liv- ing on almost nothing. There was a time before the war when students who tried to work their way through the university lost caste and social position. "This, of course, due to present economic conditions, is no onset true. Many Students work while they are in school, however, 'according to American standards, student costs are comparatively cheap. H o w e v e r, economic conditions throughout Germany are considerably lower than in America. A large mid- dle class has been wiped out by in- flation of the currency. Well Organized Welfare "But in many respects Germany is better off than we are," Professor Wood stated. "We are badly organ- ized, and up until a short time ago we were afraid to recognize the prob-- lem that confronted us. Germany has well organized welfare 'elief, but no money to carry out needed relief on a large scale as in Ameria. "The Reich has been doing as much as it can under the circum- stances, and social insurance has helped to a certain extent, but local communities are almost broke.". Cities are models of cleanliness,' better than ours, in spite of econo- mic advantages, Professor Wood de- clared. Even the poorer worker's dwellings were, always clean, char-' acterized by a sense of. order and discipline. Crime is conspicuously absent, Professor Wood said, except for fair- ly 'frequent -.political iots and dis- turbances. The police force in the larger cities, Professor Wo'od noticed,: were -well groomed, 6vell trained; .and very courteous." Malcolm A.

Feb. 24.-(0)-Four more persons were dead and many others injured today as the result of politi- cal rioting in various cities of the reich. The reichsbanner man at Leipzig and a policeman at Dortmund were slain Thursday and two opponents of Hitler died in Berlin and Hanover. A leftist source told the Associated Press that leading Communistsfeared they would be seized by the govern- ment at any moment as hostages and no longer dared to return to their homes. (The Communists had 100 of the 600 seats in the last reichstag dis- solved by Hitler and were even stronger in the Prussian diet. Next to the Socialists, their party is the largest opposing Hitler's forces in the reichstag-and diet elections March 5.) At Dortmund, police banned all Communist meetings following con- tinued disorders. Many were injured in rioting in the Silesian cities of Breslau and Hindenburg when Nazis stormed Socialist meetings. In Essen, police cancelled a Social- ist mass meeting where former Chan- cellor Philipp Scheidemann was scheduled to speak. Nazis had occu- pied streets adjacent to the hall. Following a warning from Dr. Wil- helm Frick, Nazi minister of interior. that the reich will countenance no resistance from south German states to extension of commissioner rule, Fritz Schaeffer, champion of state's rights, told a mass meeting at Wuerz- burg Thursday night that "the ca- thedral of Bamberg was already standing when wild boars rooted around the swampy spot that is Ber- lin today."
