NAILS USED JEWISH
TOMBSTONES AS
TANK TRAP

New York (JPS)-The tomb
stones on a Jewish cemetery in a
lage Ukrainian city, which was at
one time a great Jewish popula-
ton center, were used by the
Nazis as a trap to stop Soviet
tanks, according to U. S. cores
pondents cabling from Moscow.
Thousands of tombstones lie
smashed, row upon row, while
hundreds of graves lie tombless'
according to these reports. The
Nazis, it appears, dug up the
grave markers and centered them
all in a single area to resist the
Soviet tank onslaught.
Although the cable stories 90
not identify the city, it has been
ascertained by details in the re-
ports that the city referred to Is

more than the previous year.
In addition to Mr.. Sher, the
leadership which was responsible
for the overwhelming success OF
the Miami campaign included the

This little book gives us a

To us the most stirring thing
about the book is not the stories

which concludes the book of our
