that the Government has no intention of interfering with the personal liberty of Jews. It is pointed out that much more dras-

Meanwhile the Hitler Government continues to tighten its con- trol of the nation, and Nazis are being appointed to high executive posts in Prussia and Bavaria.

The impact caused the fuel tanks to explode, demolishing three houses, and killing all the occupants except one.
The tragedy occurred during blinding rainstorm, and it is thought that the pilot misjudged his altitude.
Two passengers who were in in the machine, together with the pilot, were killed instantly, while in one of the private re- sidences, an entire family of six, including two children, were wiped out. Three adults were killed in adjoining houses.

NEW ZEALAND'S TAIL COLLAPSES
Jardine Enforces Follow On
Christchurch, To-day.
All possibilities of an England triumph against New Zealand in the first Test were ruined when a vio lent dust storm caused play to be abandoned and the match to be declared a draw.
New Zealand's last five wickets added only 27 runs after lunch and New Zealand, forced to follow on 337 in arrears, had scored 35 with- fout loss when play was abandoned.
The weather was sunny and the wicket in good condition when M. L. Page, the New Zealand captain, accompanied J. L. Kerr (42) to the crease to continue the innings at 153 for 3.
Tht batting was lifeless at the start, the pair adding 33 runs by dogged methods before Kerr was taken in the slips off Brown, 186-4-59.
Kerr, who this morning add- ed only 17 runs to his over- night-total, was at the crease for 168 minutes for his 59, which included eight boun- daries.
The English attack met with a further success when James, the wicket-keeper, stepped in front of a straight one from Maurice Tate at 196.
A crowd of 5,000 saw the dis- missal of Page after lunch with 208--6--22 only 9 runs added. Six runs later Smith was clean bowled by Tate for four.
Freeman fell a victim to Voce's inswinger at 212 and Newman suffered the same fate at 2.3 when the innings was terminated owing to Vivian being an absentee with a knee injury.
Tate fulfilled all expectations as a stock bowler, sending down 37 and 2 wickets. overs for 42 rune
