FINDING WORK IN GERMANY
YOUNG PEOPLE TO BE | DISPLACED ! FCOXO3IY -MEASURE ; _____ j i I UNITED PRKsS A.-s.-i.-'CIATJOS- I.V FLICTfiJC | TELEOI'.APH-cO?TiUGIIT '. ; (Received August 31, 5.5 p.m.) ; BERLIN, August 30. ! A new decree provides that ali unmarried men under 25 employed by private or pub'ic firms and the public service mur.t give place to older persons, particu'arlv with families. Work will be found for those displaced in the labour services, and in domestic and agricultural posts. The state is to pay a subsidy of 50 marks a month to firms emoloying men over 40 after long unemployment as compensation for their | inferior efficiency. The state , will also pay a subsidy of 300 marks a year for six years to provide houses for married agricultural labourers. The new decree will cause 1,500.000 persons to lose their jobs on October 1. By that time firms must have supplied the Government with all details of the men and women affected. The "Daily Herald" says the order illustrates the myth of the Nazi claim that it has solved unemoloyment. The move is mainly an economy one. Married men with families will cease to be a charge on Ihe unemployment funds and will have to exist on the salaries pr-vioitsly paid to single persons under 25. The Government unemployment figures will thus show a sudden decrease of more than 1,000,000, while fanners will be forced to take unskilled workers whom they do not want. DEBT CRISIS ! LONG MORATORIUM URGED BY DR. SCHACHT THREAT OK HOLSIIEVJS.M BERLIN, August 30. Dr. H. Schacht, president of the Reichsbank, addressing an agrarian conference at Badeilsen, at which 20 countries, including Great Britain, are represented, declared that an improvement in the world's economic position was possible only if Germany and her foreign creditors agreed to a moratorium of several years, and after that a reduction of Germany's debts. Political debts from the World War were a disturbing factor in the world market. Germany's capability to transfer funds to service her debts —after repaying £350,000,000 of her £1,250,000,000 indebtedness —was exhausted.
The clearing-house ?ys;em would 1: merely aggravate the problem. 80l- L shevism would increase, wi.h the f prospect of a world crisis, which would increasingly endanger pre- | sent standards of living. I NO ASSOCIATION WITH ! JEWS | i NEW M.:LK I'Oll NAZIS (Received August 31. 9.50 p.m.) LONDON, August 31. The Berlin correspondent of "The Times" says Horr Rudolf Hesse ( (head of tiie Nazi party) has issued a new party order forbidding mem- . bers mixing with Jews in public or accepting Jewish money for parly purposes. It also forbids Nazi lawyers from representing Jews before the courts. Herr Hesse says it is undignified for members of the partv to stand advocate for those who* have brought indescribable misfortune on the German people.— "The Times'' Cable. !

Two had been convicted of Ihe murder of a Storm ■ Trooper, and the others were con- | victed of robberv and murder. \ I
