Palestine Quiet on New
Year; Terrorists Sought

By BERL CORALNIK (JTA Correspondent)
JERUSALEM (JTA) — Palestine authorities started
the New Year with mapping out new plans for intensified
action "to uproot terrorism in the country," it was re-
ported here this week following a three-hour meeting
held between the Palestine High Commissioner, and high-
est government officials, attended

as having given the best feminine

performance ever heard on the air

in the psychological drama, "The

Next Is Always a Waltz," which

was repeated three times over the

grim horror which she found

there, especially the plight of

homeless Jews who had been part

of the large army of slave labor

brutalized by the Nazis, forced

her, despite an utter lack of re-

sources, into single-handedly smug-

Italy, obtaining food for them

THEODORE ISAACS

Before a gathering of 1,500 peo-

ple assembled in the Masonic

rigid secrecy, far exceeding that
of the revolutionary groups in
Czarist Russia. Therefore, it is not
surprising that the Jews in Pales-
tine are not aware of who-is-who
and what-is-what among the con-
spirators. It seems that only a
handful of leaders or commanders
of each organization plan the op-
erations, while the rank and file
of their membership follows or-
ders blindly.

The Jewish Agency executive
held a special meeting devoted to
the situation. A plea by the presi-
dent of the Jewish Community in
Jerusalem to the authorities to lift
Thu two extremist groups are the curfew for New Year was re-
conducting their activities under jected. Complete quiet has been

prevailing throughout Jerusalem

and Tel Aviv since the lifting of •

the curfew in Tel Aviv and the re-

ducing of the curfew hours in Jer-

usalem to the period between 4
P.M. and 8 A.M.

It was estimated that 5,000 Jeu.::!
have been detained in Jerusalem: '
Tel Aviv, Ramath Gan and Jaffa
for routine investigation. About
2,000 of them were detained in
Jerusalem, many of them for
breaking the curfew regulations.
Most of them were released after
establishing their identity, and
only 11 are still in custody.

The authorities indicated that
raids such as that on Ramath
Gan can be expected in various
sections of the country "until the
terrorists have been tracked
down." All precautions have been
taken by the military authorities
against any outside assistance
reaching the terrorists in the
zones which are still under cur-
few. Even military officers were
not allowed out of these zones in
Jerusalem and in Ramath Gan
without special passes, in view of
the fact that all the terrorists arc
believed to be equipped with Brit-
ish uniforms.

of eastern orchestras.

In opening the annual Detroit
Campaign, one of the 400 drives
carried on all over the country,
and which is participated in by
all Detroit Jews, the Committees
announce a constant reservoir of
capable and daring workers must
be on hand for the extension of
the borders of Jewish Palestine
through the colonization of waste
regions, for the defense of these
new outposts, and for the opening
of new fields of constructive en-
deavor in industry and agricul-
ture. All these are vital to a pio-
neering country which is to absorb
large waves of Jews who are anx-
ious to find a home in Palestine.
All of these are the specific task
and contribution of the Histadrut.
For these, there must be available
to the Histadrut special funds that
can be applied to special needs as
they arise and that can enable the
Histadrut to grasp opportunities
for the initiation of these new
enterprises as they present them-
selves, opportunities that do not
wait for formal organizational
machinery to get going.
The Histadrut collaborates in
all the important enterprises
launched or sponsored by the Na-
tional Institutions in Palestine. It
in no way duplicates funds or en-
terprises already established. It is
in order that important pioneering
funds be placed in the hands of
those immediately engaged in the
building of the Jewish Homeland
that the National Committee for
Labor Palestine conducts inde-
pendent Palestine Histadrut Cam-
paigns. All the monies raised and
transmitted are applied solely and
exclusively toward expanding the
social, economic and cultural insti-
tutions and enterprises of the His-
tadrut, for the benefit of all Jews
in Palestine and with the view of
bringing more Jews in Palestine,
seeing them through every step of
their absorption into the country
and fashioning a new culture and
new society on cooperative prin-
ciples. Not a penny of these mo-
nies go toward Histadrut adminis-
trative needs.

Immigrants Land
In Palestine After
Abandoning Ship

(Continued from page 1)

"I was called soon after mid-
night by a public relations officer
of the 'Haganah' and was told
that the landing was being car-
ried out," the British correspond-
ent cabled from Haifa. "A car
called for me and took me out of
the city as soon as the curfew was
lifted at 5:30 A.M.

"All approaches to the landing
area were still guarded by 'Haga-
nah' officials. Apparently the ves-
sel bringing the immigrants had
evaded a shadowing British plane
during a storm on Christmas Eve,
and as a result the landing beach
was changed at the last moment.
There were no small boats to take
the arriving Jews ashore and the
schooner had to come close in-
shore and foundered. Girls and
women aboard cried as there
seemed no chance of getting
ashore in the stormy waters. But
'Haganah' stevedores constructed
a rope bridge and the last pas-
senger landed soon after midnight.
In the distance the sweeping
searchlights of British destroyers
could be seen, but did not come
close.

"The sea was running rough,
and the immigrants were soaked
to the skin, but there were 250
complete sets of clothing waiting
for them. Practically all were
between 15 and 35. Some had been
on their way for nine months,
from Poland and Eastern Europe.
One girl had been in Auschwitz
and Mauthausen concentration
camps and a group of boys had
come from Dachau.

"Today all these newcomers
were already being absorbed in
settlements and elsewhere in Pal-
estine, and 'Haganah' officials de-
clared they would intensify their
efforts and rapidly increase the
number of immigrants coming to
Palestine."

The Reuter correspondent re-
ports that the landing was carried
out twenty miles north of Haifa
"within a quarter of a mile of the
encampment of a unit of the Arab
Legion." The vessel evaded two
destroyers, a number of police
boats and searchlights along the
coast.

On the sandy shore of the Jew-
ish colony of Nahariah, where the
landing took place, a number of
U.S. Air Force life preservers,
popularly called "Mae Wests,"
were found, the correspondent
writes.

would give up with a well-earned wheeze

yesterday's electrical needs are inade-

many home owners have become accus-

blown fuses because of an overloaded

wiring is up to date is your assurance of
being able to use the electrical appliances
you want in your home when you want
to use them—where you want to use
them. It means having your home fur-

outlets always convenient. It also means
that it should accommodate a new frozen-
food cabinet, electric range, automatic
laundry, electric dishwasher and many
other electrical appliances. And, of
course, if your plans for tomorrow in-
clude a brand-new home, adequate wir-
ing is an "A-1" item to check in plans
and specifications.
