This is what the people told us

In little green field about rs

from the camp a mass of charred
corpSes was lying amid a few hun
dred pounds of ashes. Most of the
corpses were about half burned.
There were men, women and chill

three girls who must have been
under 16. In the backs of their
heads you could see what looked
like bullet holes.

and nearby a great pile of clothing
most Of which bore the stencilled
Star of David and prisoners num-
bers. In another pile were shoes,

among them.
In one place was a completely
burned building An escaped pris-
oner said this was where the Ger

and women, locked the doors, set
fire to the building and burned
them alive.
In another place a dozen or SO
bodies lay sprawled behind barbed-
wire inclosure. These, an inmate
said, were shot down or beaten
to death.
Those who escaped said they were

Many of those who worked here

TALLINN, Estonia, Oct. 5.-Eigh.
teen miles from this capital is what
the Russians point to as evidence
of the Nazis' most recent mass hor,
ror-the Klooga labor camp There
the Russians say. 5000 Jews, Rus.
slams and Estonians were murdered
methodically.
This camp was located in the tim.
ber and cement country, where pris.
oners slaved to produce vitalAma-
terial for the Nazi war machine.
People in the vicinity told cor
respondents this story:
The Germans killed off the pris-
oners wholesale when they learned
the Red Army was coming and re.
treat was in prospect.
1t was September 1.-two days
before the Germans pulled out oi
Tallinn. They announced the pris-
oners would be moved, always bac
sign in a Nazi camp.
The first group Of 300 was marched
into the woods, ofdered to saw UP
piles Of logs into pieces, and were
marched into field in groups OF
about so, carrying the logs. They
were forced to make raft-like
foundation, and then to lie down
on it. The Germans shot them all
A second group formed another
layer on top of the first-and were
shot. When there were six or seven
layers of dead. gasoline was poured
over all of them and torch was
applied.

Dewey May Watch
Two New York City
|Parades Next Week
By the Associated Press.

H BY the Associated PreSS.
1 ALBANY, N. Y, Oct. 5.-New York
City voters will get their first real
look at Thomas E. Dewey as the
Republican presidential candidate
next week If the Governor carries
out tentative plans to make two
appearances there, one on Sunday
and another Thursday.
Gov. Dewey plans to leave
Charleston, w. Va, Immediately
after his Saturday night speech,
reaching New York Sunday in time
for the annual Pulaski day parade
Of the city's Polish-American popu-
lation, a march that usually finds
upwards of $4,000 persons in line.
He is expected to be in the review
ing stand His train will make a
brief operating stop in Washington
early Saturday.
Returning to Albany thereafter,
the Governor now plans to go back
to- register and to view the annual
Columbus day parade involving a
large turnout of New York's italian
population. This parade up Fifth
avenue is sponsored for the first
time this year by the city admins
tration, headed by Mayor Fiorello
H. La Guardia.
May Address Marchers.
Although Paul Lockwood, the
Governors secretary, said definite
arrangements had not been made
Gov. Dewey may address the Colum-
bus Day marchers, as he has in the
past. 1t was explained that any
such address would be, nonpolitical
Gov. Dewey has made only three
talks in New York State since he
became the COP standard bearer
and two of these have been informal
The third, made from the executive
mansion here Tuesday night, was a
Nationwide radio address. Previ-
ously, he had spoken in Albany on
his return from the Chicago nom-
mating convention and later at
Pawling on his first week end spent
at his dairy farm after his nomina-
ton.
Al Votes Loom Large.
New York's Al electoral votes loom
large in the calculations of both
parties and there has been much
speculation here that both Presi-
dent Roosevelt and Gov. Dewey
could be expected to find a place on
their ar-abbreviated schedules for
a major campaign speech in the
State.
In previous visits to New York
City since his nomination Gov.
Dewey has dispensed with fanfare
He held close conferences with Her.
bert Brownell, jr., the national
chairman, and other leaders, then
promptly took a train elsewhere.
Comparatively few have seen his ar
rivals or departures and he has made
no public utterances there except at
news conferences.
In New York the Republican Ma
tional Committee announced tenta-
tive arrangements for Mr.. Dewey to
go to Minneapolis October 20 and
Chicago October Is. James C. Hag-
erty, the Governors executive as
sistant, said tentative arrangements
had been made for Gov. Dewey to 60

HiIIman Says Bricker
Is Using Nazi Formula
By the Associated Press.

NEW YORK. Oct. 5.-Sidne,
Hillman, chairman of the CIO Po.
litical Action Committee, said last
night that Gov. John w. Brickel
of Ohio, Republican vice presiden-
tial nominee, resorted in his st
Louis speech to the "Nazi formula
of repeating deliberate lie."
A PAC spokesman said Mr.. Hill
mans reply was aimed principally
at the Governors prepared refer
ence to Mr.. Hillman as a man
whose ideas of government are
alien to the Constitution and free
representative government" and tc
the millions of dollars collected
by Hillman and his PAC."
Honest John Bricker is delib-
erately continuing his campaign of
lies,' Mr.. Hillman said in a state
ment issued at PAC headquarters
1T does no good to call his at
tention to published fact. He is not
interested in fact. He has COM
mitted himself to the stereotyped
Nazi formula Of repeating a deiib-
crate lie and dragging the Com
munist red herring across the real
issues of the campaign"

IBricker Sees Danger
lin Political Power Of
Fourth-TermP President
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
OTTUMWA, Iowa, Oct. 5.-Gov.
John w. Bricker declared today that
the political power OF the presidency
has become so great that the tenure
should be limited in order to develop
leadership for the republic.
The Republican vice presidential
nominee said President Roosevelt,
by his tactics of subterfuge," had
kept out of the running all other
possible candidates in the Demo-
cratic party"
He had such a hold on the Demo-
cratic party through patronage that
they did not dare get rid of him.
he said
Nine Speeches Slated.
The Ohio Governors special train
was due here in the midst of a
one-day tour of Iowa in which nine
speeches were scheduled, topped by
an engagement in Rock Island, III.
tonight.
Last night Gov. Bricker spoke at
ST. Louis in a bid for the Is cleo
toral votes of Missouri, home of his
Democratic rival. Senator Truman.
There he appealed for a sincere
straightforward and truthful" cam
paign. devoid Of "cynicism. in
nuendo, f1ippant remarks and syn
thetic humor."
He told his audience that New
Deal leaders were unable to pass by
the millions of dollars collected
by the CIO Political Action Com
mlttee and saw in them an oppor-
tunity Ito buy this election" He
asserted that pressure, regimenta-
ton. threats and intimidation" were
the instruments of Sidney Hillman
director of the PAC.
The millions of dollars collected
by Hillman and his PAC were too
much for the New Deal leaders to
pass by" he said. They saw the op-
portunity to evade the Hatch Act, to
defy the Corrupt Practices Actin
deed, to buy this election"
Limit on Presidency.
Describing limit on the Prest-
dents tenure as fundamental to
the preservation of self-govern-
ment," Gov. Bricker said in a speech
prepared for an Ottumwa audience: /:
The political power of the presi-
dency has become SO great that a
constitutional provision limiting the
term of the President is necessary
to develop the leadership essential
In a republic. Long tenure imposes
narrow partisan government on the
people and destroys new leadership.
which is the handspring of prog
reSs."
Hitting at advocates of a fourth
term for Mr. Roosevelt, the Ohioan
said that 16 years as the Nations
Chief Executive would be "a reign:
that half of Great Britain's mon
archs had served less than Is years.
In his st. Louis speech Gov.
Bricker asserted that the New Deal
had risen to power by granting spe-
cial favors to special groups; by set
ting "class against class" and by
playing minority groups for their
political support"
Prior to the political meeting. the
Ohioan saw the opening game of the
World Series.
His program today included, be-
sides Ottumwa and Rock Island,
brief talks in Keokuk, Fort Madison.
Burlington. Mount Pleasant, Fair
field, Washington, Muscatine and
Davenport.
