NEWS OF MEN N THE SERVICE
IN TOKYO BAY

AN IOkxO BAY
 Aboard the USS Colorado in Tokyo Bay = Two Waterbury Navy men, Ems, E. c. Beeman, B, USNR, 68 Delaware avenue, and Alan F. Lichtenstein, 18, S2/c, USNR, 57 Kaytonne avenue, steamed into Tokyo Bay aboard this ship to sup- port the occupation of Japan.
 The Colorado. whose crew had taken her through ten invasion op- erations to help bring the final cap- itulation of Japan, had been near Tokyo before. She sailed with Amer ican and British warships into Sag ami Bay, 1S miles from Tokyo, to support the first landings of air- borne troops at Atsugi airfield. That operation was in preparation for the arrival of General of the Army Douglas MacArthur to make the occupation official.
 The Colorado poured thousands of tons of hot steel into Jap shore installations in the pre-invasion bombardments that gave Allied forces bastions of Japan's outer rim. She helped at Tarawa, the Philippines, Okinawa, and in other lesser operations for four years.
 From the decks of the battleship may now be seen Fujiyama, the towering volcano that stands as one of Japan's landmarks; Tokyo, Yoko- hama, the naval base of Yokosuka, and other cities win dead smoke stacks and debris from Allied at- tacks. Nearby lies the Jap battleship Nagato, one of the last remaining enemy fleet units that went down under bombardment by planes from the Third Fleet.

NeeU Certificates

Jerusalem (JPS) = The new
grant of three thousand Palestine
certificates, to be used principally
for survivors of the Bergenbel-
sen, Buchenwald, Dachau and 9TH
,er concentration camps, was des-
cribed as "a miserable pittance,
which is most disproportionate to
the crying need of the diaspora
and the absorption possibilities
of Palestine" by spokesman of
the Jewish Agency here.
''The system of distributing i'm
migration certificates into pitt
full doles so as not to emerge
from the White Paper strait
jacket will not be successful for
long," he said, adding that the
Jewish Agency would 'redouble
its efforts to breach the frame
work of the White Paper and
secure broad immigration"

Defamation Charged to Council for

Seattle, Wash. (JPS) = Action
by the Anti-Defamation League
to protect the Jews of Seattle
from implications and differences
regarding the Americanism of
Jews" as contained in statements
ascribed by the Seattle Post-In-
telIigence to Rabbi Elmer Berger,
Executive Director of the Ameri-
can Council for Judaism, was de-
handed by Seattle Lodge 5O3 OF
B'nai Birth. The resolution, pro-
posed by Rabbi Franklin Cohn,
Chairman of the Public Relations
Committee of the Seattle Zionist
Council. was carried by all but
one vote at a meeting of the lodge,
May Is.
The Seattle Zionist Council sent
out thousands of photostats OF
the Post-Intelligence story which
quoted Rabbi Berger as stating:
"In America, for instance, we
feel a Jew should be an American
first and a Jew afterwards =
lust as another is an American
first and a Protestant afterward."
The news story followed this by
stating: He (Rabbi Berger) point
ed out that this (American first
and Jew afterward) is diametri-
cally opposed to the Zionist move
ment. which seeks to set up
separate Jewish nation in Pales-
tine"

shouting Down with the Jews,

terday, demanding that they be
clothed.
Bernard Lecache, president of
the League Against Anti-Semit-
ism, told the Jewish Telegraphic
Agency today that the linking of
the legitimate grievances of the
returning prisoners with anti
Jewish activities is a serious del
opment, which must be combatted
strenuously. The league, as a first
step, is having leaflets distribu-
ted among returning deportees
and prisoners denouncing the pro-
vocateurs who are spreading anti
Jewish propaganda.

Riots IN Damascus
accompanies
POgrOn, On jews

Paris (JPS) = Many Jews
were wounded and a number
were killed when Arab rioters
broke into the Jewish quarter of
Damascus during clashes with
French troops, your correspon-
dent learns from official French
forces. Jewish shops and homes
were looted, and material dam
age to Jews is estimated at sew
eral million francs. Rapid action
by French troops prevented the
riot from taking on the proper
ton of a major progrom as had
been planned by the ringleaders.
No political motives are ascribed
to the attack on the Jewish quar-
ter.

Thousands of
Pole Jews Refuse
Repatriation

Paris, (JPS) = Stating that
they have nothing to return to-"
thousands of Jewish soldiers of
the Polish Army, liberated from
German prison camps, declared
that they will remain in Germany
to await opportunities to migrate
to Palestine and other countries,
rather than return to Poland
where their families were muir
dered and their homes destroyed.
Jewish RescueeS In Sweden
Request Isolation From Poles
Stockholm (JPS) = Jewish wo-
men, among a group of six thou
sand Polish refugees liberated
from German slave-labor camps.
and now housed in Sweden, have
been separated, at their own re-
quest, from Polish women, be-
cause of the anti-Semitic attitude
of the latter, your correspondent
learns. Six hundred Jewish and
lPolish women, at the Doverstorp
camp, have been allowed to re-
main together, however, since
their relations are exceptionally
amicable.
Thanks to swift sanitary meas
ures a Typhus epidemic, which
threatened to spread through
Swedish rescue-camps, has been
averted. The health of the lib
Grated slave-laborers is described
as satisfactory.
