JERUSALEM (Palcor) — The
Palestine Government has official-

Official figures released by the
g overnment reveal that 118 mem-

the past few weeks as the result
o f surprise raids on five towns
and settlements. On Sept. 5, "ow-
ing to excellent cooperation of
the local authorities with the
police and military,'' 46 terrorists
were arrested in Petah Tikvah;
in an early morning raid at K far
Saba on Oct. 9, the police round-
ed up five terrorists believed to
have participated in the raids on
police stations in Tel Aviv; on
Oct. 10, 29 "known Irgun Zvai
Leumi terrorists" were apprehend-
ed in raids on Ramath Can and
Bnai Brak. "Two known terror-
ists" were arrested at Tel Zur
on Oct. 13, and 36 members of
terrorist organizations were
brought in in Tel Aviv raids on
Oct. 17.
An official announcement is-
sued on Oct. 20 states: "With
the concurrence of the Command-
er-in-Chief of the British Forces
in the Middle East, the Palestine
government has decided to use
air raid sirens to give public
warning of the occurrence of ter-
rorist outrages. The system will
be operated by the police. The
warning will be sounded in the
main town of the area. Police
and military personnel will take
pre -arranged action, and vehicu-
lar traffic within the town-plan-
ning area will come to an imme-
diate standstill. The warning will
also be a signal for increased vig-
ilance by the general public. Any
suspicious movement of persons
should immediately be reported
to the nearest member of the
police force or telephoned to
police headquarters or to the
nearest station. When police ac-
tion has been completed the siren
will sound a continuous wailing
note notifying that traffic may
move again. The system is ap-
plicable in Jerusalem as of noon
of Oct. 19, and in other towns
as soon as possible thereafter."

DETROIT JEWISH CHRONICLE and The Legal Chronicle
LUXEMBOURG (WNS)—This
small nation, which has been lib-
erated only less than a month
ago, is acting with unprecedented
speed to effect the restoration of
confiscated Jewish property.
The first Jew to get his prop-
erty back was Marcel Cahan, own-
er of a large cigarette factory.
Mr. Cahan, a resident of Luxem-
bourg for more than 30 years
and a former member of its
Board of Aldermen, fled to Eng-
land when the Germans took over
his country. Upon returning to
Luxembourg recently, Mr. Cahan
discovered that his factory was
being operated by a group of
collaborationists who bought it
from the Germans for 3,000,000
marks. Ile walked into the fac-
tory. remarking that he was fa-
miliar with the cigarette business
and that he would like to have a
job. Before long, the collabor-
ators realized his identity and
walked out of the factory, leav-
ing it in his possession.
To facilitate the return of con-
fiscated property, the government
has issued a decree that all per-
sons who purchased property
from the Nazis, with or without
good faith, must relinquish its
title to the lawful owners.
Of the pre-war Jewish com-
munity of 3,500, only 70 were
found alive when Luxembourg
was liberated by the Allies. Ten
of these eluded the Nazis by
hiding during the entire period
of occupation. The other 60 es-
caped deportation because they
were married to non-Jews. More
than 800 Jews were deported to
Poland and Czechoslovakia.

Hirschmann Reports
On Aid to Refugees
WASHINGTON .(WNS) — Ira
Hirschmann, who has just re-
turned from the Balkans as spe-
cial representative of the War
Refugee Board, declared at a
press: conference this week that
the task of the board was large-
ly completed in the Balkans, ex-
cept for the Slovakian and Hun-
garian situation.
Asserting that his primary
function was to get refugees out
of the Balkan countries by way
of Turkey, Mr. Hirschmann said
that the number of refugees tak-
en out through Turkey "ran into
thousands."
Disclosing that the Bagrianov
Government of Bulgaria called a
special session of the Parliament,
at the suggestion of WRB, at
which it repealed the anti-Sem-
itic decrees, Mr. Hirschmann said
that the result of the action of
the Bulgarian Parliament was
that "a population of some 45,-
000 people were re-established
and rehabilitated—put back on
their feet and given their prop-
erty rights and a chance to re-
build their lives and help rebuild
their country."
Mr. Hirschmann declared that
he had received most favorable
assistance from the Turkish Gov-
ernment in facilitating the exo-
dus of persecuted minorities in
the Balkans. He added, however,
that. due to changed conditions
in the Balkans, Turkey no longer
afforded a practical exit route.
