10 Million Germans
Begin Migration
BY the Associated Press.

]
FRANKFURT, Oct .13.-A huge
migration, involving the transplant
ing of 100000 Germans in new
homes and the restoration of several
hundred thousand to their former
homes, is under way.
Gen. EisenhoWer's headquarters
today said 100000 Germans from
Czechoslovakia's Sudetenland al
ready have entered the American
occupation zone.
Movement of 10000 Germans
from what now is the American
zone in Austria back to their homes
in the Reich also has started, Of
f1cials said Most of these people
will go into the Russian, British
and French zones in Germany since
American authorities already have
dispatched $4,000 to 10000 to their
former homes in the American zone
in the Reich.
Sudeten Germans arriving in the
American zone are being distributed
as equitably as possible among Ger
man Co"Alo' 4AACy olC GulllCu ONtI
to German welfare agencies and
burgomeisters with instructions that
they be given whatever shelter and
food is available.
1t is estimated that eventually
100000 more Germans from the
Sudetenland, from former parts of
Germany now incorporated in Po-
land and other areas, must be re-
settled in the American zone.
Transplanting these people, many
already homeless, will be started
soon

ForrestaI Warns Of Danger
In Hasty DemobiIizatioa

A warning against over-rapid de-
mobilization of the armed forces
came yesterday from Secretary of
the Navy Forrestal.
I'm our haste to get rid of the
signs of war, we may strip ourselves
so rapidly that we will serve notice
on the world that we do not intend
to meet any evil that may arise" "
he told $50 men and women of a
Red Cross unit training at Ameri-
can University. There is no better
way to start a third world war"
THE main mission of our armed
forces is maintaining security" he
said, and the task of Red Cross
workers is to give the men in the
occupation forces "the feeling that
the country is thoroughly aware
of their services, and we don't
propose to forget them, that we will
stay with them until their task OF
securing their country against
future danger is completed"
Basil O'Connor, chairman of the
American Red Cross, introduced
Secretary Forrestal at the gradua-
tion services held at Metropolitan
Memorial Methodist Church, Ne
braska and New Mexico avenues
NV.

THAT boy won the Bronze Star"
said Col. Mashbir. Fifteen others
got the same award, two the Silver
Star, one the Soldiers Medal, three
the Purple Heart, and 40 received
concentrations. OF the first 10
Nisei we received, three now are
first lieutenants, five are second
lieutenants and two are technical
sergeants.'
approximately 1000, 900 enemy
documents were classified by the
Nisei according to tactical, strategic
or long-range value. About 10000, 600
pages of tranSlations were made and
thousands of prisoners were inter-
rogated.
Many war crimes were linked to
individual japanese by diaries cap
tured by men from the translator
section. Many japanese soldiers
carried diaries throughout their
combat service, in contrast to the
American practice of never retain
ing any papers that might give in
formation to the enemy.
Some Japanese soldiers wrote of
their feelings as they executed or
tortured Allied prisoners. Their
names and grim deeds have been
recorded and they are being hunted
down.
Col. Sidney F. Mashbir makes his
home here at 1924 Indian lane NV,
in Spring Valley and was Washing
ton representative of the United
States Rubber Co. and several other
large industrial concerns, with off,
ces in the McLachlen Building. He
is linguist, research engineer and
has been member of Gen. Mac
Arthuh's staff for the past three
years.
The colonel learned japanese in
Tokyo as an Army language student.

BiIbo Views Scored
By Veterans Group
By the Associated Press.

CHICAGO, Oct. ia resolution
labeled by veteran as a direct at
tempt "by unscrupulous manage
ment to break up the closed shop
system" today was rejected by the
American Veterans of World War II.
The resolution, introduced by the
Texas delegation, said: mo vet
eran shall be required to join any
organization as a condition of en-
ployment."
A resolution offered from the floor
and unanimously approved con-
demned lin their entirety the ut
terances of Senator Bilbo of Mis-
sissippi referring to discrimination
of race, color or creed"
At Washington, Senator Bilbo,
gave this statement to a reporter
about the organizations action
criticizing his views:
This little bunch of an ill-in-
formed, so-called veterans organiza-
ton, so small that they don't de-
serve consideration, represent that
part of American citizens that have
not yet melted. In their case Uncle
Sam just ran short of heat.
They are more to be pitied than
blamed. They know nothing about
true Americanism and care nothing
about the integrity of the white race.
It's my guess that it's a mongrel
bunch.
They don't know anything about
my views. just let them wait until
they read the book I'm going to pub
lish in few weeks, the title of which
will be Separation or Mongreliza-
tion-Take Your Choice Now il
seems that this bunch prefers mon
grelization as I will show in the

|Priorities End Toniqhf,
But Air|ines Expect
To See Few Changes

AS the last domestic airline pri-
critics are abolished one minute
after midnight tonight, the biggest
boon to the air traveller will be
elimination of the threat of being
bumped"
Demand for air transportation al
ready is exceeding capacity, so it
| is necessary to make reservations
well in advance to be assured Of
accommodations, airline officials
said. But once a passenger holds
reservation, which has been con-
| flrmed, he will be assured of seat
to the end of his journey.
Some Offices reported the ap-
preaching end of the priority sys-
tenn has resulted in a food of in
quiries from civilian travellers, with
plane space being booked further
in advance than ever.
This, however, continued a trend
which started September Is, when
priorities were discontinued for all
except those travelling on essential
military business Until that time,
four classes of priorities were issued
for air travel.
In the past month a relatively
small proportion of air travel has
been on a priority basis. One COM
pany reported 80 per cent drop Of
priorities on its lines, while another
said priority travel, which totaled
95 per cent before September IS,
fell to less than 4 per cent in Wash
ington in the past month.
Recent reductions in plane fare
also have increased the popularity
of air travel, and the companies are
eagerly awaiting the arrival OF
equipment to expand services.

I Out Of 3 in World
Don't Get Enough 10
Eat, Anderson Says

BY the Associated Press.
Secretary of Agriculture Ander-
son said last night that new in
ternational food agency faces zone
great, towering fact"-that two out
of every three people in the world
don't get enough to eat.
But he and two other experts
agreed that the United Nations Food
and Agriculture Organization can do
something about it by starting an
other war-against hunger and
want.
The new war begins when the
organization gets going this week
in Quebec.
Mr.. Anderson told about 1t in an
NBC broadcast along with Lester B.
Pearson, Canadian Ambassador to
the United States, and Cove Ham
bidge. Mr.. Pearson has been chair
man and Mr.. Hambidge executive
secretary of the commission which
has been getting ready for the birth
of the Food and Agriculture Or
ganlZatlon Tor more than Two years.
1t is a scientific fact, Secretary
Anderson said, that the world can
produce enough food and fibre for
everybody. But there must be a
general rise in living standards, he
said, so that all peoples can buy and
sell in the world market and make
enough money to get the food they
need.
The Food and Agriculture Organi-
zation, which will be linked to the
United Nations, will be a sort of
international department of agricul-
ture, Mr.. Pearson said, and added
Through the FAC, we hope to
make start toward freedom from
want of food"

The "big inch" and "little inch"
pipelines, built by the Government
at cost of S142, ,000,00 had a gross
profit of s135 ,00o, 900 on their opera
tions up to last June 80, two Senate
committees reported yesterday.
The figures were in a joint report
of the special committee investigat-
ing petroleum resources and the sur
plus property military subcommit-
tee. Both groups are headed by
Senator O'Mahoney, Democrat, of
Wyoming.
The Reconstruction Finance Corp.
supplies the figures to the Senate
committees.
RFC also figured its net outlay
under the petroleum subsidy pro-
gram amounted to SPOT 100000 as
of June 80.
The Senate report announced that
hearings will be begun on disposal
of Government-owne petroleum
facilities as soon as w. Alton Jones
of Cities Service Co. returns from
London where he served as an ad-
visor to the American delegation
which negotiated a new petroleum
treaty with Britain.
Mr.. Jones is chairman of an in
dustry committee which wishes to
be heard by the Senate groups.
The report said the Independent
Natural Gas Association wants the
pipelines offered for sale or lease
on competitive bidding.
This is opposed, it added, "by GER
tain coal interests and labor organi-
cations representing mine workers
as well as by certain railroads"
Senator LANCER (R. of N. d., has
served notice that he will introduce
legislation to forbid sale of the
two pipelines.
