Sharon Chamber circular urges Jews not to buy in Sharon

New Haven July 29 A circular with a questionnaire circulated four months ago by the Sharon Chamber of Commerce urged property holders to refrain from selling to Jews. A committee of the Independent Order of Bnai Brith pressed for action to prevent such notices in the Connecticut Chamber of Commerce. The letter was sent to George B Chandler executive secretary of the state chamber, with hopes of settlement through the state chamber rather than court. Some residents have not pledged, and a few wealthy locals favor admitting wealthy Jews but oppose farmers and cattle buyers nearby.

Low Exchange Rate Worries Former Kaiser

Doorn , Holland July 29. The former German Emperor Wilhelm II worries over the low exchange rate of the mark. He prices houses near Doorn in Dutch guilders and converts to marks, calling prices preposterous. Farmers pay 80 cents an hour to unskilled helpers while road conditions and a small car tax draw complaints.
