The noted Russian war cor-
respondent was quoted as stating
that as a result of his numerous
trips to all front lines he was
in a position "to establish that
of the 100,000 Jews who lived
in Vilna prior to the German
occupation, only 600 were living
when the city was liberated by
the Red Army.
"Of the 70,000 Jews in Kiev,
only 20 Jews were left alive by
the Germans. In Minsk only
1,000 Jews remained out of the
100,000 who were there when
the Germans entered the city.
In Berditchev, which had a Jew-
ish population of 40,000, only
12 Jews were found when the
Red Army returned."

WASHINGTON
WASHINGTON —

Spring is
time of year when the
young mans fancy reportedly
turns to thoughts of love.
Spring of 1945, in Europe, may
induce other, less kindly thoughts
for Allied soldiers.
It is not likely that a Jewish
Brigade, if fighting in Germany,
as in Italy, would need an army
order of "no fraternization"
with the local population. Nor
would there be any possibility
of French or Czechoslovak, or
Greek, or Polish troops requiring
such a directive. No Red Army
man, with memories of his 20
million lost fellow citizens, would
understand the necessity for reg-
ulations of this kind.
But the Vatican newspaper,
"Osservatore Romano," advises
that "the instinct (for fraterniz-
ing) and a little nostalgia for
love will burst out despite every-
thing, in the last analysis." In
fact, the newspaper is alleged
to have called the Allied order
not to fraternize with Gernian
civilians "comical" if applied
generally. And funnily enough,
a Nazi war prisoner, a short
time previously, told his captors
that Germans find American and
British humaneness "laughable."
In fact the Allied command is
circulating to their troops the
Nazi's sneer of "soft" United
States authorities who, he jeer-
ed, "are committing mistakes by
being humane."
The Department of State has
just pointed a warning finger at
German ingenuity in taking ad-
vantage of the Allied reputation
for fair play. In revealing a
well-developed Nazi plan for
postwar perpetuation of Nazi
doctrines and domination, the
Department says the German
propaganda program will try to
"soften-up" the Allies through
subtle appeals for "fair treat-
ment."

CLIFTON AVENUE - CINCINNATI 20, OHIO

Instead of propagandizing for
a policy of love, the "Osservatore
Romano" might with better grace
explain that love will not eradi-
cate Nazism. Allied troops are
in Germany for a very definite
purpose, namely, to attend to
that eradication. Playing tic tac-
toe with frauleins in off moments
is not part of that purpose.
The more Americans liberated
from Nazi prison camps, with
personal tales of starvation and
mistreatment, the stronger the
brake on fraternization by newly
arrived troops. The more Allied
soldiers who free prisoners of
other nationalities, and with their
own eyes see the scientifically in-
stilled inhumanity of the Nazis,
the less the tendency to daily in
German gardens.
It is hard to conceive the men
of the 6th Armored Division, for
instance, seeking other than the
strictest military contact with
Germans in their path. This divi-
sion recently freed 900 Jewish
women between 16 and 35 whom
the Nazis had kidnopper from
Hungary for slave laborers on
farms and in factories in the
Siegenhain area, 14 miles south
of Kassel. Any "nostalgia for
love" of the armored Sixth will
