der the direction of Captain Ed-
ward El]sberg, U. S. Navy offi-
cer and noted salvage expert.
The job was the raising of a
drydock, considered by the Ital-
ians to be a "total loss," capable
of handling 10,000-ton cruisers at
Massawa, Eritrea, a port of the
Red Sea. The British had taken
the port from the Italians in
1941.
Captain Ellsberg, who first
won acclaim as the salvager of
the famous U. S. submarine S-51
off Block Island- 16 years ago,
said, after the Massawa job had
been done: "I wish the Italian
captain who sank it and boasted
it never could be raised could
see it now."

Sweeney Loses
Anti-Semitism Suit
Against Syndicate

Ruling Vindicates Pearson
and Allen in Jewish Dis-
crimination Row

BULLETIN — Rep. Martin L.
Sweeney was decisively defeat-
ed Wednesday by Michael Fei-
ghan in Ohio's Twentieth District
Democratic primary.

NEW YORK (JPS) — By a
unanimous decision, the United
States Circuit Court of Appeals
has ruled in favor of United
Features Syndicate, which was
sued for libel by Congressman
Martin L. Sweeney for distribut-
ing a release of "Washington
Merry-Go-Round" in which
Drew Pearson and Robert S. Al-
len had suggested that Sweeney
had tried to prevent a Cleve-
lander from becoming a federal
judge because he was a Jew.
The ruling was on an appeal
from a decision by Judge Ed-
ward A. Conger and a jury in
New York Federal Court in Feb-
ruary, 1941. Sweeney contended
in his appeal that the judge was
in error in not having advised
the jury that the article was li-
belous per se.
Congressman Sweeney, now
running for re-election, brought
a total of 70 suits for libel against
United Features Syndicate was
held to be most important. The
only instance in which Sweeney
won was in the case of the Sche-
nectady, N. Y. Union-Star. The
Circuit Court of Appeals held
the item was libelous per se.
Subsequently the United States
Supreme Court, splitting 4 to 4
on the appeal, upheld the Cir-
Court of Appeals.
