Ex-POWs Urged
To File Claims

The War Claims Commission
announced that all ex-prisoners
of World War II who have not
yet filed a claim for benefits
under the War Claims Act of
1948, as amended, should do so
immediately.
While Public Law 16, 82nd
Congress, of last April, extended
the terminal date for filing
claims with the Commission to
March 31, 1952, the Commission
hopes to have all American ex-
POW claims settled by the end
of this year.
The chairman of the commis-
sion, Daniel F. Cleary, expressed
his opinion that in addition to
some living ex-POWs a number
of survivors of the prisoners
who are eligible for the benefits
have not yet filed claims. Wi-
dows, children, and parents of I
the deceased POWs, in that
order, are eligible for benefits
under the War Claims Act.
The benefits available to
American POWs or their sur- I
vivors under present law are $1
for each day the POW was in-
terned by the enemy and was
not provided with the amount
and quality of food required
under the Geneva Convention
of 1929 relating to the treat-
ment of prisoners of war. Claims
forms may be obtained directly
from the War Claims Commis-
sion, Washington 25, D.C., or
through Jewish War Veterans,
Department of Michigan, 4095
W. Davison, Detroit; state di-
rectors of Veterans Affairs, and
the American Red Cross.

ADL Issues 2 Pamphlets
In Fight on Communism

The communist problem in the
free world is the basis of two
pamphlets published by the An-
ti-Defamation League of Bnai
Brith as part of its Freedom
Pamphlet series.
The opening words of "How
You Can Teach About Commu-
nism," by Ryland Crary a n d
Gerald Steibel, explain its pur-
pose: "You can't teach about
communism unless you can cope
with totalitarian .propaganda—
not with parroted cliches and
easy phrases but with realistic
answers framed in democratic
context."
The second pamphlet, "Primer
on Communism," in question and
answer form, relates the history,
aims and tactics of the Com-
munist Party in the United
States and elsewhere in the
world. Divided into two sections
—"Communism in the Free
World" and "Communism in the
Soviet World"—the pamphlet is
a factual and comprehensive
document for the unsophisticat-
ed reader who wants a simple
informational guide to the most
talked about subject in the world
today.

`No Rich Man Died There'

It's Dave Barry's tale of the
ancient philosopher who ap-
proached Baron Rothschild, first
member of the famed banking
clan, and said, "Baron, I can
sell you something that • can
make you live forever."
The Baron scratched his chin,
pondered a moment and said:
"That is indeed something worth
buying. What is the cost?"
"300 rubles," replied the wise
man.
"A bargain indeed!" remark-
ed the Baron, handing over the
money. "What clf I have to do to
live forever?"
"Just this," was the sage's re-
ply. "Go to the little, poor town
of Karakas to settle. "NO RICH
MAN HAS EVER DIED THERE!"
