B—4 TIGHTENED REIGH BOYCOTT IS URGED Untermyer Asks Pressure to Ruin or Reform Hitler Regime. ‘ | By the Associated Press. i LOS ANGFLES, March 18.—Samuel Wed 50 Years GOLDEN ANNIVERSARY CEL- EBRATED TODAY. Untermyer, noted attorney and presi- | | dent of the National and International | Americanization League, urged yester- day that the boycott be pressed against Germany to effect “an economic col- lapse or reform of the Hitler regime.” Addressing a mass meeting of the Los Angeles Americanization League, Untermyer who was introduced by Rupert Hughes, writer, explained his speech was an answer to a German plea that the boycott of the league | be abandoned. = “We are cal told,” said the New York attorney, “that wrongs do not ex- ist; in fact, never happened, and that these alleged crimes are purely imagi- nary. The only answer to such a plea is not only to continue but to intensify the boycott so long as these wrongs | exist.” He branded as false assertions he said were made recently by Dr. Julius Lippert, state commisar of Berlin, that the boycott is strictly a Jewish move- ment; that nothing has been done by the Hitler government toward de- stroying the economic existence of Jews in Germany:; that the Jews in Germany are not being persecuted, and that the boycott is being main- tained only by a handful of American | Jews. Untermyer declared the boycott al- ready has destroyed over 50 per cent | of Germany's export trade to this| country. SUBMARINES END TRIP Peruvian Craft Dock in U. 8. for - Repairs.

BOYS TO BE GUESTS 1Coup]e to Entertain Wheatley School Boy Patrol Force. THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, Tenth Artillery Horses Hear ‘Taps’ In Motors’ Roar |Old Timers Miss Nicker- ing of Animals Replaced by Trucks, Tractors. By the Associated Press. | FORT LEWIS, Wash, March 18.— | “Taps” have sounded for the horses | that hauled the guns in the 10th Field Artillery, tractors now clank to bugle calls as the caissons start rolling. The Army is being motorized. Re- i cruits and cne-atripers of the “red- | legs” like it; the officers hail modern- ization, but the non-coms, the five- stripers and the stable sergeants, who chewed tobacco and served the guns with Pershing in Mexico, miss the nickering of the horses. Approximate- ;ly 600 animals have been supplanted by tractors, trucks and motor cycles. | “Naw, buddy, never mind my name,” said a private, first class, “but there's | a lot les$ work to do without horses. You don’t have to groom and feed a | tractor after a hard day's work.” | A different view was taken by Jos- | eph L. Middlesworth. He's a major now, but he won fame as a first sergeant. “No one with any sense really thinks the Army can get along with- out horses,” he said. “Motors are all right when you want to go a long distance in a hurry, but when you want to reconnoiter over rough terri- tory you need horses and always will.” PHONE PROMOTIONS W.
