ARTIE FIELDS
Artie Fields, Mu 1-c, who has
recently been released from the
Navy after more than three years
service, most of which was in Ra-
cial. on the USS Lexington, is
planning to head his own orches-
tra.
Fields received a captain's cita-
tion, while at Luzon, for meri-
torious service. Ile has numerous
battle stars and campaign stripes
since the Lexington participated
in about ninety nercent of the bat-
tles in the Pacific.
Always interested in music,
he was hard put to get in his prac-
tice while on ship. He finally per-
suaded the officer in charge of the
ice box below deck to allow him
an hour's practice there every (lay.
"The Japs couldn't hear me," he
"and it was very quiet down
below although it was very cold."
Fields talks very little about
his battle experiences. Since his
release, he has turned down sev-
eral propositions with name bands
in order to head one of his own.
All but one of the members of
his present band have seen service
in the armed forces.
Immediately upon his return
from overseas. he was sent by the
Navy to Washington, D. C. where
he organized a seven piece band
which he took to Mare Island,
Calif. He was stationed there un-
til his release. Then he started a
tenor band which played nightly
in the officers quarters on the
island. Ile was also assistant trum-
"et soloist in the Navy Symphony
Orchestra, the largest of its kind
in the country. He wrote his own
musical a•angements for both the
tenor and dance bands.
He has turned down the serv-
ices of several of the well known
booking agencies seeking exclu-
sive management of his band in
order to have Sally Fields, his
mother, manage it personally.
Fields and his orchestra will go
to the West Coast the latter part
of February where they will open
at a "swanky" night club. the
Valejo, near San Francisco. From
there, they will go to a famous
stud in Hollywood where they
will work through the Miss Jean
Wald offices. Pictures and records
will be part of the Hollywood
program.
China Orders
Repatriation of Jews
SHANGHAI. (JTA) --Thousands
of Jews who escaped from Nazi
Germany and Austria to Shanghai,
and spent the war years here tin-
der the most difficult circum-
stances, are panic stricken as a
result of an order by the Chinese
Government in Chunking declar-
inc.', that all Germans and Aus-
trians in China, including Jews,
must return to their native lands.
The order specifies that only
refugees who can produce "valu-
able guarantees," either Chinese
or foreign, will he exempted. They
will need permision both from the
Ministry of the Interior and the
Ministry of Foreign Affairs to re-
main in Shanghai, or in any part
of China. Technicians who can con-
tribute to China's development
will be permitted to stay, and may
even he given employment by the
Government, providing that the
Interior and Foreign Ministries
approve.
Though the order of the Chin-
ese Government is not directed
against the Jewish refugees, many
of the 15,000 Jews who found shel-
ter in Shanghai are affected by it.
A large number of them came
from Austria and Germany during
the Nazi persecutions, since
Shanghai was the only place in
the world where they could enter
without any visas.
AT THE HISTORIC first national conference of the
United Jewish Appeal for Refugees, Overseas Needs and
Palestine, held recently in Atlantic Civy, delegates repre•
seining every American Jewish community pledged to
raise $100,000,000 in 1946 after hearing the first-hand re.
ports of the most impressive gathering of European,
Palestinian and American Jewish leaders ever to speak
from the same platform. At the top left are three of the
speakers who gave eyewitness reports of the desperate
conditions of the survivors of European Jewry: Dr. Salo

from Europe; and Josef Rosenzaft, survivor of Auschwitz
