The article does not give the chaplain's name because he is "suspicious" of interviews. Reports circulated in London allege that UNRRA officials in the U. S. and British zones of Germany are vainly attempting to propa- gandize Jewish DPs into renouncing their de- sire to emigrate to Palestine, before they are questioned by members of the Anglo-American Committee of Inquiry on Palestine who will arrive in Europe before the end of the month.

This was no new scene to a bomb torn war wearied world. Jews were gathering for refuge amidst rock strewn debris in almost every major city where war's destroying whirlpool en- snared humanity. These Jews, however, were dif- ferent. They were inaugurating a refuge—a house of worship—to be raised from its own dust—the wreckage of " Manila's Temple Emil. Chaplain Colman A. Zwitman, energetic, vibrant rabbi of Mia- mi's Temple Israel, compared the fictional, "A Bell for Adano" with this factual "Synagogue for Ma- nila." In Manila 35 Years The Netzorgs, JDC and JWB representatives, had arrived in Manila 35 years before as newly- weds and teachers from their na- tive Detroit. They raised their family here and when the chil- dren were ready for college they were sent to the States. Early in 1941 they were visited by their son, Davi d, 27, and a Ph.D., who was teaching at the University of Nebraska. When the war broke David enlisted in the U. S. Arfmy Engineers and was assigned to Bataan, where he was captured. Seven days after he had made the "Death March" he died in the Capas pris- on camp. The Netzorgs were interned at A tribute to the heroic actions and victories of Jack Malin in the Pacific. In those far flung areas, alert on every scene Sprang from his lair, Our Brave "Jack, the Marine." Amid hardships, cruelty and opposition strong Quick to our defense, it did not take him long To take up arms, to get the "Japs' spleen" If it was anywhere close, to "Our Jack, the Marine." In Detroit, he left loved ones waiting for him But was faithful to duty, and the bat- tle grim Jack invested his love In a Hollywood Queen "Bee" his wife, who inspired her "Jack, the Marine." All loved ones now rejoice at his safe return, Fond parents, brothers, sister who had to yearn To hear of the brave acts of every scene That included to Victory, "Their Jack, the Marine."

The founding of the new colonies took place sym- bolically on the day that is ob- served throughout Palestine as Hamishah Asar b Shivat. Kvutza Emunim, affiliated with Hapoel Hamizrachi, has been settled on an area of 3,000 dunams in the Beisan Valley, and is composed of youth emi- gres from Germany who came to Palestine in 1935-36 under the auspices of the Jewish Agency Youth Aliyah Bureau and who were joined, in recent years by youths from the Balkans and France. The group totals 120 members, whose average age is 25 and 10 of whom are in the armed ,forces, in addition to 27 children. The Keren Kayemeth revealed how rigorously the government enforces the restrictions against the purchase of land by Jews in most of Palestine. In one case three dunams, or less than one acre, form a wedge of unculti- vated Arab land projecting into Jewish-owned land, yet the gov- ernment refuses an application by the seven Arab joint owners to sell it to the Jews. The gov- ernment will agree only to ex- change the land for soil in the same zone.
