JEWS TURN
BERLIN, Mar.. 30 (AP)– Jews
turned today to the very man they
hold most responsible for anti-
semitic feeling in Germany, Chan-
cellor Hitler himself, and to
President Von Hindenburg, who
created the present government, in
a last despairing attempt to pre-
vent the nation-wide boycott of
Jews scheduled for Saturday.
Premature outbreaks continued
in various cities, resulting in
widespread damage to Jewish
business establishments. The Na-
tional Socialist party, which is
sponsoring the organized ban on
Jewish business and professional
activity ordered to begin at 10 a.
m. Saturday, disapproved of these
acts of vandalism. In some cities,
its storm troops were able to sup-
press outbreaks.
The radical element of the Nazi
party was seen as still triumphant
as the boycott proclamation was
sent to all parts of the country last
night. The hopes of the Jews
rested in the conservative branch
in which Hitler and Dr. Wilhelm
Frick are now identified, as op-
posed to the other Nazi cabinet
members, Capt. Hermann Goering
and Joseph Goebbels.
The new appeal, signed by mem-
bers of the General Council of
Jews and the Board of Berlin’s
Jewish Community, also was ad-
dressed to the Nationalist party
majority in the Hitler cabinet,
which has never been identified
with anti-Semitic activites as ad-
vocated by the Nazis.
ing to the idolized President Von
Hindenbury, also, presented an
opening again for a test of his
powers, which Hitler said have
not been “touched” by the new
regime. Technically, at least, he
still has the power to veto any ac-
tion of the government. But foes
of the Nazis lately have protested
there no longer is a chance to gain
a hearing from him.
It was learned here last night
that Prof. Albert Einstein, who
has decided to remain out of Ger-
many and who now is in Belgium,
has taken steps to renounce his
Prussian citizenship. Professor
Einstein, who was born in Ulm,
Germany, was formerly a Swiss
citizen, but became a Prussian citi-
zen in 1914 when he accepted a
position in the Prussian Academy
of Sciences.
