Moshe Smilansky, one of the
most eminent Palestine Jewish
leaders who is now visiting in
the United States, will be a
guest in Detroit on May 24, 25
and 20, and will address a series
of gatherings under the auspices
of the Jewish National Fund
Council of Detroit.
Mr. Smilansky is president of
the Palestine Farmers' Federa-
tion. A resident of Rehoboth, he
is a well-known Hebrew novelist
and is the author of two volumes
of Arabic tales which he pub-
lished under the nom de plume
"Havaja Musa" (Arabic for
Moses). He came here for a lec-
ture tour under the sponsorship
of the Jewish National Fund of
America.

in which both admitted stealing
Government ammunition.
Captain Prout, who expressed
his regret at having done such a
"foolish thing", in his statement
said that he gave Bishop 1,500
rounds of .30-caliber ammunition
and about a dozen cans of cor-
dite, a high explosive.
The National Guard officer ad-
mitted in his statement to the
FBI that he had heard Bishop
talking of bombing various places
and that he himself once sug-
gested that it would be better
to make bombs out of a pipe
instead of tin cans.
During its case, the Govern-
ment brought out the fact that
the anti-Semitic Christian Front-
ers intend to incite "the Jews
and Communists" to riot and
then stage a counter-revolution
with the Christian Front in com-
plete control of the country. The
plotters had even considered sev-
eral leading • American Fascists
as "possible dictators."

cated property at one billion

Similar reports have been re-
ceived from Copenhapen where
the anti-Jewish Nuremberg Laws
are expected to be imposed
shortly. Jewish refugees from
Denmark said upon their arrival
here that the liquidation of all
Jewish property has begun. Jew-
ish enterprises still in existence
are supervised by Gestapo agents.
It was learned here that 32
Jews, who had contributed to the
Polish war chest prior to the
Nazi invasion of that country,
were executed by the Gestapo
in Nazi-occupied Poland. Since
the Nazi invasion of Poland, Ge-
stapo agents have been hunting
sympathizers of the former Po-
lish regime.
First Group of Jewish Refugees
Arrives at Dominican Republic
Haven
CIUDAD TRUJILLO, Domini-
can Republic. — (WNS) —
Thirty-seven Jewish re f u g e es
from Central Europe, 26 men,
10 women and a 14-month-old
infant, the first batch of 500
Jewish families, have established
themselves on the American-
financed Sosua settlement where
they hope to rebuild their shat-
tered lives.
The refugees were warmly re-
ceived by natives of Ciudad Tru-
jillo when they trooped down the
gangplank of the Italian liner
Conti Biancamano. Government
officials and officers of the Do-
minican Republic Settlement As-
§ociation, sponsors of the Sosua
colony, were on hand to greet
them.
Rudolph Herzberg, a 42-year-
old farmer near Berlin, acknowl-
edged the greetings and said.
"We will do our best here, and
we hope to stay and raise our
children." The refugees seemed
pleased with their new home.

WASHINGTON. — (WNS)-
Reporting to the annual conven-
tion of the American Red Cross,
James T. Nicholson, Red Cross
official and first American to be
permitted into Warsaw by the
Nazis, declared that "one-fourth
of the population of Warsaw
lacks adequate food."
"Signs of malnutrition and
hunger are evident there and in
Cracow," Mr. Micholson said.
"One can see them in the pinched
faces of children, the very preva-
lent inflammed eye-lids, sores on
faces and heads and the emacia-
tion of many of the aged. Even
though food supplies were plenti-
ful, many would be without the
means to purchase them."
"The relief needs," he con-
tinued, "produced by the inva-
sion and the terrible bombard-
ment of Warsaw are very great.
They have since last October be.
come intensified greatly by the
mass deportations of the Polish
populations from the Poznan and
Pomeranian districts."
Charges Against 2 of the 16
Christian Frontiers Dismissed
by Court
NEW YORK. — (WNS) —
Charges against two of the 16
members of the Christian Front,
on trial in Brooklyn Federal
Court for conspiring to over-
throw the United States Govern.
ment, were dismissed by Judge
Marcus E. Campbell.
After hearing arguments by
defense counsel to dismiss the
charges against all 16 defend-
ants, Judge Campbell dismissed
the charges against George Kelly.
24, and Edward L. Walsh, 23.
Following the release of these
two, the defense opened its case.
Earlier, Earl J. Connelley, a
Federal Bureau of Investigation
inspector, testified that he per-
sonally took signed statements
from Captain John T. Prout, Jr.,
of the 165th Infantry, N. Y. Na-
tional Guard, and William Gerald
Pennsylvania Group Offers Hitler
$3,000 for Return of Liberty
Bell
HARRISBURG, Pa. — (WNS)
—An offer of $3,000 was made
to Adolf Hitler by the Pennsyl-
vania World's Fair Commission
for the return of a replica of
America's Liberty Bell, donated
to Czechoslovakia when that
country became a republic.
Richard P. Brown, State Secre-
tary of Commerce and chairman
of the Fair Commission, cabled
Hitler:
"We understand all bronze ar-
ticles are being melted down and
since we have use for this valu-
able bell we offer $3,000 if de-
livered to New York in good con-
dition for use in Pennsylvania's
building at World's Fair."
Two Arrested After Anti.Nazi
Demonstration in Theater
NEW YORK. — (WNS) —
Two men were arrested follow-
ing a fight in a Broadway news
reel theater when members of
the audience booed and shouted
at a picture of Hitler. About 20
persons participated in the fight
before the police arrived.
In Night Court, Magistrate Ed-
gar Bromberger suggested that
the participants in the fight "for-
give and forget," remarking, "I
can understand why men should
want to boo Hitler."
Ralph Bass, the complainant,
said he did not object to the
booing of Hitler but resented the
language of the men. Bass was
seated with a woman companion.
