+Charterers of the 1,858-tor
freighter Tolten, first OF neutral
Chile's ships to be sunk in the war
said today extinguishing of running
lights at the request of United

her destruction by a torpedo of
New Jerseys Barnegat Point early

cargo of nitrates at Baltimore, was
reported in a Government commu-
nique to have made the Tolten sub
iect to United States naval regula-
tions-including a blackout order
BY seeking instructions for handling
her on the trip north to New York
The ChartereTS, La ComPanla
sudamericana de Vapores. declared
we must emphasize that all our
ships have instructions to navigate
with lights and to show the neutral
flag. In this case the captain OF
the Tolten, In circumstances which
will be cleared up, was obliged to
change this order during the four
hours which preceded the disaster

torpedo-hit amidships cost the lives
pf 81 crewmen. Foreign Minister
Juan Bautista Rossetti arranged

italian and Japanese diplomatic
representatives here after the In

The Chilean communique quoted
the United States Navy Department,
saying the captain of the Tolten
visited the director of the port of
Baltimore last Wednesday to ask
instructions.
These instructions are not given
to neutral ships unless the captain
asks them and promises to comply, y

the route the captain placed himself
ut the direction of the United States

Through the captain, the ship
received instructions to proceed as
close to the coast as safety would
permit during the day and seek
whatever refuge was at hand during
darkness.
Z "If he considered it necessary tc
leave territorial waters during dark
ness he should proceed blacked oui
from sunset to sunrise. In addition
to written instructions, he was orally
told that if he passed Delaware Bay
about an hour before dawn he could
reach New York before sunset.
THE ship evidently failed to fol-

lights in the darkness. 1t did not
pass Delaware Bay until about p m

LONDON, March 17.-Eeuters re-
borted from Tangier today thi 4
French authorities in Morocco have
ordered internment of all British
Subjects between 18 and so residing
in coast towns.
The number involved Is believed
70 be about 1000.
! Reliable sources said the step was
taken in reprisal for the r. A. F
bombing attacks on Occupied
France.
1t was recalled that last summer
the Vichy government ordered
British nationals in unoccupied
southern France to move inland
from all points on the Riviera and
Elsewhere along the Mediterranean
eoast.
, An authoritative source in London
said the British consul general at
Tangier was doubtless looking into
British nationals.
, He said there was mo reason 10
doubt the accuracy OF the Tangiers
report.
! The possibility that the reported
hternment may have been prompted
by British bombing OF armament
factories in Occupied France is only
one of at least three reasons why
kuch a step may have been ordered.
: Segregation of Britons in the in
terror might be connected with pos
sible developments in the French
naval situation, particularly at the
improved base at CaSablanca on the
Atlantic Moroccan coast. There,
tnits Of the partly -diSarmed French
feet have been waiting for months
for orders from Admiral Jean
parlan. vice premier and navy min
lister of the Vichy government.
These ships are available, after
approval from the Germans. for de-
fense OF French possessions any
where in the empire and could be
sent, for example, to Madagascar in
an attempt to maintain ViChy'S
control over the large island off the
East African coast.
Morocco has also been known as
. center of De Gaullist propaganda
where British nationals have been
seeking recruits for the Free French
forces. While these Britons are
technically under police supervision,
Just as any alien is, they have almost
complete liberty In circulating
through the territory.
4, Reports reaching the United
States recently from Africa have
described activities of Gestapo
Agents who have been seeking "pur-
ification" of the Moroccan zone of
these elements working against the

Children Try Out
Merry-Go-Round
And Find It Fast

The merry-go-round arrived last
Monday and was erected at the
playground just north of the
Shopping Center plaza.
The kiddies had a try at it Tues
day afternoon. There were at least
500 children awaiting and cheering
the final assembly touch efforts Of
the Colonel" and "Pop" Sines.
Second and third grade students
had the first ride, with the high
school basketball boys doing the
pumping. Other children got at it
in due time.
The big wheel revolves at quite
brisk pace and consequently the
smaller tots will have to take short
rides. 1t would be better to allow
the small ones the pleasurable task
Of being their own bumpers.
Recreation Director Ben Goldfa-
den urges parents or big brothers
or sisters to be present while the
little people ride, at least until the
novelty wears off and the crowd
becomes normal.
The first rides were a big event
and the crowd took turns on the
gadget and gave the impression
that they will all be fair in sharing
the ride.
One small fellow was heard to
say, "E-E-E-e-e- just
like a Spitfrel" Several had tum-
nv aches so it would be we'll to
follow the same rule as applied to
swimming, don't ride so soon after
eating.
Speaking of rules, Mr.. Goldfa-
den says, "Due to the fact that this
merry-go-round is simply here on
approval, and in effect, loaned to
the town, the following rules
should be followed in its use: D
Do not stand up on the merry-go-
round. (2) Allow smaller children
the use of the ride and look out
for them. (3) Stop the wheel
when smaller ones wish to get off.
(4) Give every one a chance at the
pumper bars. (5) Do not push or
shove one another while riding.
(6) Just do little thinking"
The merry-go-round is an i'm,
posing addition to playground
facilities, and it should be kept.
A sister ship should be installed
somewhere among the new homes
in the north end of town, Mr.. Gold
faden indicated.

The Southern Jewish weekly. [volume] (Jacksonville, Fla.) 1939-1992, 1942-12-11

go on the blacklist. They ex-
planned these harsh measures In
this way:
/. The Nazis have organized
the collection of blood-money on
scale that threatens the effective
ness of the United Nations finan-
cial blockade. Millions of dollars
in foreign exchange extorted from
the friends of refugees have en-
abled the Nazis to finance their
propaganda and espionage cam
paigns abroad, to purchase vitality
needed supplies there and to run
them through the blockade for the
benefit of the German war effort.
The payment of ransom money to
the Germans seriously threatened
to prolong the war.
2. Each Nazi success in coll
lecting ransom for a refugee en-
courages the hunt for additional
victims. The State Department
warning quoted this account of
the Nazi method, from the report
of one of our missions abroad:
I'm the hostage and ransom
system the victims are subjected
to terrorization whereby their de-
sire to find refuge in one of the
United Nations or neutral coun-
try is immeasurably increased.
First, they are made the victims
of unbearable restrictions design
ed to make life not worth living,
usually under confinement in vile
concentration camps; and, second,
they are faced with the threat of
deportation to domains in Eastern
Europe, with the prospect of an
unknown and possibly horrible
fate awaiting them there"
For each refugee freed from the
threat of such a fate, the NaziS
can find a dozen more with whom
to appeal to the generous and hui
manitarian feelings of others on
neutral and United Nations soil.
It is an old trick of theirs to use
our best impulses against us.
So, according to the State De-
partment: 1.-THE most effective
means of dealing with extortion is
to prevent the extortioner from
benefitting from his viciousness."
Don't pay ransoms, say the three
governments. If you do, says
ours, look out for a 1O-year jail
term and a fine of $4,000.
