U. S. Approves Transfer for Refugees
as Reparations for Nazi Persecution

GENEVA (JTA)—Sir Herbert Emerson, director of
the Intergovernmental Committee on Refugees confirmed
that the United States government had authorized the
transfer of the IIungarian "gold train" to his organization
for the rehabilitation of survivors of Nazi persecution.
The train had been captured i 1 the closing days of the war.

He said that the contents of
the train are valued at approxi-
mately $15,000,000 and that Ameri-
can military authorities were still
cataloguing the valuables, which
include furs, rugs, household lin-
ens, clocks, watches, and jewelry.
Sir Herbert also reported that
the Intergovernmental Committee
had no funds on hand, but that
it was expecting to receive $13,-
500,000 from Sweden toward the
total sum of $25,000,000 allocated
to it by the Allied Reparations
Conference from German assets
held in neutral countries. Nego-
tiations are under way with the
Swiss government for its share of
the fund, he stated.
French delegate M. de Rosen
challenged an assertion by British
delegate Sir George Rendel that
the Jews constituted only 10 per-
cent of the DP's in Europe.
The French representative point-
ed out that the Jews numbered
250,000 and composed 25 percent
of the displaced persons. He added
that France would not agree to
leaving the Jews in camps. Rendel
later admitted that his statistics
were based on the British zone
alone.

voiced the hope that the United
States would liberalize its immi-
gration laws. He. estimated that if
Palestine were open, 90 percent
of the DP's would go there; if all
countries admitted immigrants
freely, 75 percent would go to Pal-
estine and the rest elsewhere;
while if Palestine were closed and
all other countries open, about 50
percent would still wait for ad-
mittance into Palestine.

only the other day and have be-
come like life-long associates in
rheumatism.
In a mood of social specula-
tion Mr. Segal wonders: Sup-
pose Mr. G and F lived in the
same town and Mr. G applied
for admission to the Jewish
country club to which Mr. F he-
longs. It distresses Mr. Segal to
think that Mr. F might say:
"No, no, we can't take that guy
into our club. He speaks Eng-
lish with a Yiddish accent:"
Mr. Segal thanked goodness for
their rheumatism which made
them brothers as far as their
bones, anyway. He could thank
goodness for birsitis which had
brought together in brotherly com-
monality that Mr. D who is Jew-
ish and Mr. V who is Catholic.
(Mr. Segal had discovered Mr. V's
Catholicism only on account of
the Catholic amulet he saw on
his neck in the bathroom.)
