Nazis Protest Jew Attacks To Holland
BERLIN, Jan. 12 UIE)— Germany protested to Holland today against the firing of shots at German diplomatic offices at Amsterdam and tiie Hague, and warned that further "Jewish attacks" might endanger the Reich’s specific pledge of Netherlands neutrality.
The Nazi foreign office organ diplomatic political correspondence, said the Netherlands government will be held responsible for the safety of German diplomats stationed there.
tolerance cirb asked
The warning capped a revival of the anti-Jewish campaign in the Nazi press and a demand that the Netherlands Immediately take steps to curb its “tolerance toward destructive Jewish influence.”
It was announced that the German minister at the Hague had been ordered to protest against the shots which drilled holes in windows of the German consulate at the Hague and the home of the Oerman legation counselor at Amsterdam on January 6 and January 9.
PROTEST NOT DELIVERED
(In Amsterdam, it was said that the formal protest had not been delivered and it was believed that the German government was satisfied with a statement by Foreign Minister J A. N. Patijn Wednesday expressing the Hague governments regret and assuring a thorough investigation.)
"The Holland government Wlll be unable to slip by this occurance which is liable to break down Holland’s specially guarded neutrality," the foreign office organ said.
COUPLE NOT VET CHOSEN
"We don't know just yet who the fortunate pair for whom we are searching will be," the editor said, "but we are sure that, whoever they are. they'll realize their good fortune in due time.”
This cryptic statement completed Colegrove's remarks regarding Ills main feature for this month.
The Kappa Slgma fraternity will come in for its share of the news in this edition’s "Troy Through the Lens” article, the editor said. A complete survey into the construction of the Just-finished $30,000 mansion built for the Kappa Sigs has been included in the magazine. Kappa Sigma fraternity members will also play a major part on the magazine's cover page, Colegrove revealed.
SOCIAL EVENTS PORTRAYED
Society pictures will be given a big play this month, with two full pages devoted to shots of recent campus social events. No less than four parties held during the Christmas holidays have been covered by Wampus photographer Roy Moser, according to Colegrove.
A last-minute glance at the past football season, and some rare predictions by Sports Editor Bill Meeves for Troy’s following year of athletics will complete that section of the magazine.

Recess Called In Hopkins Senate Quiz
WASHINGTON, Jan. 12 (U.P) —
The senate commerce committee considering the appointment of former Works Progress Administrator Harry L. Hopkins as secretary of commerce recessed hearings today until tomorrow in order that he might obtain records for use in answering questions regarding WPA's role in the recent elections.
The recess was agreed to shortly after Hopkins appeared before the committee for the second successive day and declined to answer specific questions regarding the relief agency unless he were granted time to obtain necessary records to explain the charges of political activity contained in the report of the senate campaign investigating committee and various newspaper articles.
Lacking the drama of Wednesday's hearing, at which Hopkins defended his economic and soclal theories and said he had no apologies to offer for his administration of WPA funds during the past five year, today's session lasted only long enough to permit a short exchange of Interrogation and answers between the witness and Senators Hiram W. oJhnson, and War- I be up for debate and amendment, ren Barbour, committee members, j A rough.,nd.tumblr	nght
