HAVANA (JTA)-A bill which
would confiscate approximately
81, 1850 in bonds posted by ref
ugees who have overstayed their
six-month residence permits has
been introduced in the Senate by
Senator Luis Kainas, leader of
the anti-immigration bloc.
(The bill which is part of gen
eral tax measure, was prepared
by the Government in order to
cope with its poor Treasury con-
dition, according to advices reach
ing Washington, which said that
many of the bonds for refugees
in Cuba had been posted by Ameri-
can organizations and individuals.
The measure, which is understood
to have been adopted by the Cuban
Senate, has the secret backing of
President Federico Laredo Bru, it
was reliably learned in Washing
ton. Informed Government circles
expressed the view that he sup
ported the bill despite his know
ledge that passage would initiate
against his chances of obtaining
much-needed credits from the Am
erican Government
Refugees landing in Cuba on
temporary visas must provide a
5000 bond. The Kainas bill would
confiscate rs per cent of the bonds
of those who have remained longer
than six months. Approximately

The levy was followed by the ex-
ecution of So Jews who resided in
the houses 9 and II Nalewki
Street in one of which the Nazi
police declared they had found
Jew hiding who was responsible
for the alleged murder and had
escaped from Jail.
Meanwhile, spread of epidemics
in Warsaw has resulted in indefi-
mite suspension of the order under
which the 100000 Jews were to
be concentrated in two narrow
sections of the former Polish cap
ital. about 100000 Jews are
still outside the ghetto, accord
ing to reports reaching Paris.)
Jews who have already moved
into the ghetto districts, however,
will not be allowed to return to
their former homes. Suspension
of the edict was ordered by the
army chief of the occupied terri
tory, who resides in Cracow. The
, commander repeatedly feared the
spread of epidemic diseases among
the German soldiers.
The buildings formerly occupied
by the famous Yeshivat Hahmei
Lublin, Poland's greatest Jewish
religious institution, have been
converted into a military barracks
for Nazi troops.
Three Jews accused of secreting
arms have been executed by the
Nazis in the Warsaw suburb of
Otwock. One of the victims was
the well-known Jewish writer and
x-prisoner, Urko Nachalnik, au-
thor of books on crime.
At least 100000 refugees from
Nazi Poland are now in Lwow,
Soviet-held capital of Western
Ukraine. The position of the ma
jority of the Jewish refugees is
understood to be precarious and
they depend entirely on assist
