NATIONAL AND FOREIGN (Continued from page 19) that Turkey welcomes any and all Ger- rnan-Jewish refugees. The fact is that Turkey does not want any more minori ties and is determined to regulate immi gration of Jews in accordance with its own internal policies. Among the Jewish professors engaged for the University are I)r. Rudolf Nissen, Dr. Wilhelm Lepman, Dr. Hugo Braun, Dr. Julius Ilirsch, Dr. Hans Winterstein, Dr. Joseph Krgesheimer, Dr. Siegfired Obandorf, Dr. Vernon Lipsicz, and Dr. Karl I.erventhal. Baltimore—Details of spectacles utiliz ing for the first time powerful micro scopic lenses capable of magnifying IX times were laid before the American Academy of Optometry at its 12th annual convention by Dr. William Feinbloom, New York Jewish physician. Dr. Fein- bloom’s discovery makes it possible to utilize this new type of spectacles for the partially blind by increasing vision as much as 50 per cent. Dr. Feinbloom's appliance, regarded as of tremendous sci entific importance, has not been patented so as to make it available to all opthal- magists and optometrists. Berlin—The first annulment of a mar riage between a German Aryan and his Jewish wife on the ground that such a union is a violation of the Nazi prin ciple of “blood kinship as the foundation of the new state” has been decreed by a Berlin court. The petition for the annul ment was made by the husband on the ground that "racial extraction consti tuted the decisive personal qualification in an individual.” The Jewess opposed the annulment but the court upheld her husband's claim that the new law bases the German community upon consan guinity. Berlin—Chanukah was never cele brated more widely nor on a more grand iose and demonstrative scale than it was this year among the German Jews. F.very synagogue was packed and Chan ukah candles shown from every Jewish window. The extensive observance of Chanukah is explained by the belated de sire of the German Jews to educate their children along Jewish lines. It was also a gesture of defiance because the tradi tional school Christinas parties are being barred to Jewish children. Berlin—The Juelische Rundschau, or gan of the German Zionists, publishes a letter from the leader of the Nazi party in Holland in which he says that his party is not only not anti-Semitic but that it would welcome Jewish members, l he letter is accompanied by a copy of an official appeal issued by the Dutch Nazi> inviting the Jews of Holland to become members. Newark—A six-months' term in the county penitentiary was imposed upon Walter Kauf, a bodyguard for Heinz Spanknoebel, by Judge Daniel J. Bren nan, for carrying a concealed weapon. Kauf was arrested last October after a riot growing out of a Nazi meeting at which Spanknoebel was the chief speaker. He was convicted of striking an anti- Nazi with a blackjack. The judge said he would suspend the sentence if deporta tion proceedings were started against Kauf within 30 days. New York—Intensification of the boy cott against German drugs, medicines and medical instruments was pledged at a meeting of 2,000 doctors, dentists and pharmacists held at the Hotel Pennsyl vania under the auspices of the Allied Dental Council.
