THE NEW DETROIT BATHS Italians Who Betrayed Jews Sentenced By Rome Court ROME, (JTA)—Four Italians were sentenced to prison terms ranging from 12 to 30 years and two were acquitted after an 18- day trial of a six-man gang which had surrendered Jews to the Gestapo during the Fascist regime. KELLY Page Nineteen Pope Pius Expresses Concern with DP Problems in Talks with Americans Reports from New York, Rome, and Montreal, this week, indicate that Pope Piux XI has a sym- pathetic understanding of, and is anxious for a satisfactory solu- tion to persecution and immigra- tion problems besetting Jews to- day. In a recent audience with Dr. Max Gottschalk, president of the American Jewish Committee, the Pope expressed his concern with the DP situation, and the hope that other countries will follow the example of the Latin Amer- ican nations which have received displaced persons. The Pope's recognition of im- migration to America and Pales- 1 tine as the major hope for Jewish DP's is reported by Donald Daniels, New York industrialist, who 'says he had a 32-minute! private audience with the pontiff in the Vatican. Daniels quotes the Pope as saying that he "didn't ; think Jews could be happy in Europe for 100 years; that Europe is too saturated with the blood and bones of Jews who have died there; that anti-Semitism is too deeply rooted." Louis Segal, American Zionist Laborite leader who also was re- ceived by the Pope, reports that the Catholic church head has condemning anti-Semitism at the first opportunity. In Montreal, Ben Obrant, Jew- ish butcher who has contributed to the order of the Religious Franciscan Sisters of Mary, has received a certificate of apostolic benediction in which the Pope stated that he wished his sym- pathy for suffering Jewry to be known.
