WASTING HUMAN LIVES BEHIND BARBED WIRE ayor Edward J. Jeffries Says: "President Truman and Senator Fergu- son are Right! "We Should Admit the Displaced Per- sons in Europe to United States. "The victims of religious persecution and racial discrimination should be given a chance to start life anew in the New World the same as our forefathers did. The vic- tims of Nazi and Communist tyranny would make excellent citizens who would be in the forefront in defending America against totalitarian ideas. "These forsaken people are needed in America. Among them are the more in telligent and spirited people of Europe. They include thousands of highly -"skilled workers and technicians who are urgently needed by us. Some of the finest academi- cians and professors are languishing in DP camps when they could be here helping inspire our youth with their faith in Democracy and their opposition to the vicious dictatorships. "These new Americans would be hand picked and chosen for their fitness to live in this traditional land of freedom. The few who might be of a subversive nature can be weeded out. * Lawyer with 20 years' ex- perience in , both legal arid b0SirieSs. affairs. * State Welfare Commis,. sioner , for 8 years. * Veteran of World War I. Member War Committee giving legal assistance to G.I.'s. * Understands Detroit-'s Labor Problems having been Chairman, Regional War Labor Board. * D.S.R. Commissioner for 10 years (1934-43). * Needed city improvements such as sewers, housing. rec- reation, streets and alleys are very iinportant in his program. "You vote for City Improvements when you vote for Miricmi" "America must open up her heart and her doors to those who have suffered be- cause they believe in God and in the ten commandments. We need these _modern Crusaders for the rights of Man and for the Freedom to Worship. These unfortunates are suffering behind barbed wire because they fought against those who would de- stroy us and our freedom." LEND YOUR HAND TO SUPPORT PRESIDENT TRUMAN AND SENATOR FERGUSON IN THEIR CAMPAIGN. WRITE THEM. A substantial part of the DP's problem can be solved by opening up, increased Jewish immigration to talestine. Such a program under the direction of the United Nations should be supported by every thinking American. Our imMigration laws should be amended to provide the proper safeguards to screen out those who do not fit in with our form of government and our way of life. Congress convenes on November 17. Write your Congressman asking for amendment of present immigration laws to allow DP immigratiOn. This advertispment is sponsored' by Edmund M. Sloman •
