Massacres of Jews
Admitted by Nazis
STOCKHOLM (WNS) — The
German Ministry of Propaganda
has openly admitted the mass-
killing of Jews in gas chambers
in Poland and the massacre of
Jewish women and children by
Gestapo troops, according to re-
ports carried in the Swedish,
press.
It is believed here that the
purpose of that line of Nazi
propaganda is to impress the
German people with the fact that
it can hope for no mercy from
the Allies.

ECHOES OF THE WAR:
CAPITOL LETTER
W
By CHARLES BENSON
ASHINGTON.—Although the
U. S. State Department and
the British Foreign Office were
finally pressured into making
clear-cut statements that Asis
crimes against their own na-
tionals, including the Jewish mi-
norities, would be published, it
was evident that it is going to
be a stiff fight to get "diplomatic
niceties" discarded by the United
Nations War Crimes Commission
and replaced with realistic "un-
nice" retribution for murderers.
Even now, despite the obvious-
ness of the failure to return out-
spoken Herbert C. Pell to Lon-
don an American representative
on the Commission, the State
Department refuses to comment
on the possibility of "rehiring"
him when the Congressional ap-
propriations are granted. Pell's
services were dispensed with be-
cause there wasn't any money
to pay him, the State Depart-
ment said. But Pell told a dif-
ferent story, and the fact that
he did tell his story was par-
tially responsible for the subse-
quent pledge to punish German
leaders and their henchmen for
crimes against German Jews.
For one thing, Pell was willing
to work for a dollar year. Pell
said he had been prevented from
continuing his work on the Com-
mission because some officials in
Washington were dissatisfied with
his demand that the Germans be
punished for their crimes against
their own nations. Such a course
was called contrary to inter-
nation law, on the .theory that
what a country does to its peo-
ple is its own business. Pell felt
it was not the German's own
business to murder its people.
Every Yiddish and Anglo-Jew-
ish publication, as well as the
general press, should feature a
box with the following message:
"Stay away from Miami Beach,
Fla.; Lake Placid, N. Y.; Hot
Springs, Ark.; Atlantic City,
N. J.; and Asheville, N. C.—
These are rest and reallocation
centers for returnees from com-
bat areas" . . . Many lecture

For almost a week there had
been heated questions from re-
porters regarding Pell's dismissal
and its implications. All had been
sidestepped by Acting Secretary
Joseph C. Grew, The (lay after
the statements by Richard Law
and Bill O'Dwyer, Grew called
a special press conference and
read a two-page statement "wel-
coming" the public discussion of
the punishment of war criminals.
Previously he had tried to ward
off questions as "threats to se-
curity".
The barrage followed. Report-

ment.
Grew and his assistants left
the press conference room for
a quarter of an hour. On his re-
turn, Grew told reporters to
insert the words "wherever com-
mitted" after the words "includ-
ing offenses," so that the state-
ment read "including offenses
wherever committed against the
rules of war and against minority
elements, Jewish and other
groups, and individuals."
It was a hard fight—and it's
not nearly won yet. The belated
interest being displayed by Con-
gress may mean a firm policy by
the United States, but Congress
will continue to he interested
only as long as the American
people demonstrate their stand

-
Free Fitting in Your Own Home
PHONE CHERRY 5500
By appointment, one of our hearing aid experts will arrange a
fitting of the "Beltone" MONO-PAC in your own home. This offer
is limited to the Detroit area only.
"Beltone" for Added Comfort
Because its single unit has no battery wires to bind and irritate .. .
no special battery garments to wear . . . no separate bulging battery
case. Because it weighs only half as much as the average hearing aid.
Because it's so easy to put on and take off.
"Beltone" for Clearer Hearing
Because elimination of separate battery pack and battery cord elimi-
nates noises caused by those units. Because the special "Air Foam
Floated Microphone" means a drastic reduction of all harsh back-
ground noises, clothing noises and thermal microphone noises.
YOU CAN TRADE IN
any hearing aid you now own on the
new "MONO-PAC." A generous allowance will be made.
