After reviewing the fall of
Manila, Bataan and Corregidor
in the early part of the war,
the General continued: THE
girded and unleashed power of
America supported by our allies
turned the tide of battle in the
Pacific and resulted in an I'M
broken series of crushing defeats
upon the enemy, eliminating in
the redemption of your soil and
the liberation of your people.
MY country has kept the faith.
Its soldiers come here as an army
of free men dedicated with your
people to the cause of human
liberty, and committed to the
task of destroying those evil
forces that have fought to sup
press it by brutality of the sword.
IAN army of free men has
brought, your people once again
under democracy's banner to re-
dedicate their churches. long
desecrated, to the glory of God
and public worship; to reopen
their schools to liberal education:
to till the soil and reap its har-
vest without fear of confiscation;
to re-esta blish their industries
that they may again enjoy the
profit from their sweat and en-
joy their homes unafraid of vio-
lent intrusion.
''Thus to millions of your now
liberated people comes the Oppor-
tunity to pledge themselves, their
hearts, their minds, and their
hands to the task Of building a
new and stronger nation, a ma
ton oonseCrated TO making inn
perishable those sacred liberties
for which we have fought and
for which many have died"

ance, ensuring that the Jews in
Germany will be treated as a
problem apart from the general
repatriation and rehabilitation
problem.
One of Naditch's first talks will
be to assist in the formation OF
special camps for Jewish displac-
ed persons who are either state

countries of origin. These camps
will be supervised by special
teams of Jewish welfare workers,

activity and the Jewish Agency
has been officially approved to

as soon as possible as a step toward
speeding passage of the legislation
gefore the House begins a summer
recess. The proposals include $500
to $4,000 annual pay raises for
school employees, coupled with rec
ommendation by Chairman Ran
dolph Of the House District Com

teachers were not affected by the
