Says writer Ken Smith: "When a Giant gets hurt, all Mel Ott has to do is replace him with Gordon and the varsity remains intact, for the stocky Brooklyn native is regular-at-large on the roster, a front-row fellow with- out official portfolio. "When the whole team dips into a slump, all Ot has to do is bench somebody and insert Gordon. Presto! The boys start winning." • At this writing Sid is hitting a lusty .330 which is 14th best in the league. • • • • • • Commander Hits at Foes of Israel val ne israell cabinet in one of its first sessions studies the problems of war and immigration. .

(See Editorial, Page 4) WASHINGTON (WNS)—Only 15,000 of the 150,000 Jews in European DP camps would be eligible for admission to the United States if the Wiley-Rever- comb immigration bill, passed by the Senate, were to become law, it was revealed here as an im- migration sub-committee an- nounced its decision to recom- mend to the House that it adopt the more liberal Fellows DP bill. The immigration bill approved by the Senate would admit 200,- 000 DP's into this country within the next two years. First pri- orities are to be given to dis- placed orphans and men who bore arms for the Allies in World War MIGHT LOSE PRIORITY Since many Jewish DP's were in concentration camps during the war and were unable to join the Allied armies, they would stand to lose immigration priority if this provision went into effect. The bill further requires that 100,000 of the 200,000 DP's to be admitted come from the Baltic countries annexed by Russia and states that in order to be an eligible DP, one most have en- tered a camp in Italy, Germany or Austria by December 22, 1945. Following passage of the Se ate bill, many congress voiced their disapproval of legi - lation they termed, "restrictive." Senator Claude Pepper declared: "If not by design, at least by, ef- fect, this bill discriminates against the Jews." FAVORS BALTS He pointed out that of the 800,- 000' DP's in European camps, 171,000 are Batts and 128,000 are Jews. Yet, he stressed, under the Senate bill half those admitted to this country must be Baits. The Fellows bill would provide for the entrance into this coun- try of displaced Jews in the same proportion to the total number of DP's admitted as they hold to the total population of the DP camps.
