Stockholm, oct. 4s--(ur) Tho
refugee panish Press Service said
today that Nazl gestapo chief Heinz
rich Hinnnaler repeatedly has arrived
IN Copenhagen TO supervise per-
sonally the deportation Of Danish
Jews 10 Germany and Poland.
Geetapo agents and members Of
the pro-Nazl Danish Free Corps
already have rounded up more than
1900 Jews IN Denmark, the Press
Service said, but 500 to 1000 others,
ranging from small children 10 q
70.year-old woman, have escaped
across the narrow Oresund 10 Swe-
den.
The Jews forded the strait In all
sizes Of craft despite the risk Of
being sunk by German shore hat-
teries or patrol boats. Some paid
up TO 5000 kroner (between $500
and 5000 for the passage. Others
swan c.ross.
TIRE German frelghters were re-
ported anchored &C Copenhagen
waiting to take the frst group Of
Jews to Warnenunde, where they
would be loaded on trains and sent
to Poland, but there was no definite
word that any had departed.
The Stockholm newspaper Alton
bladet reported that bloody clashes
occurred when some Jews resisted
arrest. Entire families were ruth.
lessly taken from their homes and
herded to deportation points.
Germany so far had ignored q
Swedish demarche offering to pro-
vide asylum for 5000 Of the Jews,
whom the Germans blamed for the
violent opposition to their occupa-
tion Of Denmark. Political quarters
believed the Germans would reject
the Swedish proposal.
Meantime, Swedish authorities
gave every aid to refugees arriving
at Halsingford and Malmo, on the
Oresund opposite Denmark.
Swedish newspapers, with the ex-
ception Of Nazi organs, uniformly
condemned the roundup as bar
barisrn."

.CTTY'S OLD AGE
 TAX SAME AS AZ.
State Levies $I3O,637.S4 Against Waterbury for
 Current Year

The State of Connecticut has levied an Old Age Assistant tax of 4130, ,637.o4 against the City of Wa terhury for 1043, 1t was announced today at the once of the city comp troller, Cornelius E. Maloney. The figure is the same as that charged to the city last year.
 This will be the eighth such as- sessment imposed since the state adopted the Old Age Assistance tax in 1o35. The total tax for tbs 169 towns of Connecticut amounts to $2,226. 900. Waterbury's share of this Is determined by the ratio of It's population (90,3l4, 1940 federal cer1sus) to the state population.
 Last year the city collected in ex- cess of the amount of the state bill, which must, incidentally, be paid by April 1. 1942 collections in old age taxes totaled $146,597.
 On the basis of an approximate collection again in 1943 the city set up in the 1043 budget under It's an- ticipated revenue items $145,000 for old age taxes. However, 1t pays to the state only the amount levied against 1t, which will be $130, ,6S7.04 this year as 1t was In 1922.
