' The newspapers, which regard the incident as of ' ' able import- ance to l ‘ “ between the two Governments, speculated today on

Moscow tonight and will reach here on Sunday.

Monkhouse and Nordwell are at llberty- Cushny and Thornton are still in custody. An announcement in Moscow today said McDonald and Gregory “and others" will be placed on trial next month.

MOSCOW. March fl0.-- (AP)- The British Embassy announced to- day that Ambassador Sir Edmond Ovey had been called to London to report on the arrest oi several Bri- tish subjects employed by the Metro- polltan-Vlckers Electrical Company.

It was said on excellent authority that he is not likely to come back, and this probably will add to the complications which began with raids 0n the company's offices and the filing of sabotage charges a- galnst several technicians.

At least two of the Englishmen will be placed on trial April 9 or l0 charged with violation of sections oi the penal code relating to espion- age and conspiracy todiscloss eco- nomlc information to foreign states. The maximum penalty is death.

Virtually the entire Diplomatic Corps was present to see off Sir Es- mond and his family when they took a ti-‘aln for Berlin tonight, but the Foreign Office was not repre- sented. Mr. Monkhouse was among the crowd oi more than 100 persons who bade the Ambassador bon voy- age.

As the train pulled out of the sta- tion all present lifted their hats in

BERLIN, March 30—Despite warnings from business, industrial and financial circles that a. boycott against the Jews may prove to be a two-edged sword, National So- cialist party headquarters seem de- termlned to begin a nation-wide boycott at l0 oclwk on Saturday morning, as sclxclulcd.

The newspaper Angi-ilf, edited by Joseph Goebbels, Government. pro- paganda chief, said tonight that the threat of a boycott “has had no visible effect up to now on Jewish instigators of atrocity reports pub- llahed abroad."

On the contrary, said Angriff, "in some sections of the American press Germany's counter-measures are being answered with a renewed de- mand for a boycott of German goods."

The authorities at Breslau order- ed all Jews to turn in their pass- ports, making travel for them im- possible. The chief of police said the object of this order was “to prevent the Jews from circulating atrocity stories."

The Nazi group in the Prussian Diet presented a resolution to Wil- helm Kubebn their floor leader, proposing that Jewish children in the schools be restricted to one per cent of each school's enrollment.
