Colombia Reported
Willing to Admit
1000 Jewish Families

Bogota, Colombia, (JTA)-The
government is repeatedly planning
to allow entrance to 1000 Jew
ish families from Central Europe
for further settlement of a Jew
ish agricultural colony which has
been flourishing since 1925. The
plan includes probable govern
ment credit for seeds, tools and
land purchases from large land
holdings previously owned by
Germans convicted of Nazi activi-
ties.
The Jewish agricultural colony
is located in the Bogeta plateau
in the Andes, $500 feet above
sea level, and has been steadily
developed since 1925 when a large
wave of immigrants arrived from
Central Europe. This region, as
late as 1918, was largely a snake
infested jungle and cultivated by
relatively few farmers. After 20
wears of cattle and agricultural
development, the Jewish colony
has established this plateau as
one of the finest cattle-raising
and potato-growing regions of the
country.

such policy is not in accord with

people against the betrayal of its
last hope.
The Jews of Palestine will
never acquiesce in the application
to the Jewish National Home of

during the Munich appeasement
era and gave birth to claws" that
have introduced into the Jewish
National Home the practice OF

The order of succession was estab-

of the younger mechanics to the coli
ors and to the important tasks of
maintaining war machinery. Repairs
have been growing constantly harder
to obtain.
Then along came the record SHOWS
of the past winter. Rural roads
were blocked and tractors, unable to
get to town for their winter over
hauling, stayed in their sheds.
With the departure of the SHOWS
and open roads, a swarm of tractors
descended upon the short-handed re-
pair shops with owners ready and
eager to get flying start in the
fields as soon as the soil was dry.
The bottleneck formed quickly. 1t
was possible to handle only a cer-
tain number of machines properly in
week. Perhaps few handy
farmers can overhaul their tractor
motors themselves and slightly ease
the pressure at the repair shops.
But if tractors develop unnatural
knocking or stop on the job COM
pletely during the coming work sea-
son, it can be blamed at least in
part on the heavy snow of the past
winter.

Altho there is a provision for cab

The Eternal City, Rome, as
American soldiers are seeing it dur
ing their service in Italy, is inter-
estingly described in a letter re-
ceived last week from Cpl. Charles
w. Montgomery, sent to his wife
and parents, Mr.. and Mrs. Charles
Montgomery, of Orange township.
In part, the letter reads:
al don't think I ever had a colder
ride than that going to Rome, but l
found sightseeing in the city very
interesting. Our first stop on a
trip conducted by guide was at the
forum of julius Caesar, where Ro-
man laws were made and where
Mark Antony made his famous
speech.
''To me the ruins were little like
Carthage in Africa. | took some
pictures which / hope were good,
and will send them to you.
"On the second day we didn't get
mp until late in the morning. We
went to the Red Cross and had hot
cakes and coffee, then to the Vatican,
and after that to st. Peters cathed-
raj. That certainly is something to
see, it's the biggest church | ever
saw. We went all the way up to
the top of the big dome where you
could see all over the city.
Rome wasn't hurt much by the
war, and we found they have tele-
phones that work, and in general the
city is lot better than any other
place I saw in Italy.
"In the afternoon we went to a
museum, and the next morning we
went on a Red Cross tour thru the
catacombs, st. Peters and the Vati-
can. We saw the Pope and heard
him make a speech.
81 wish you could have seen the
catacombs. That's where 175,000
early Christians were buried, includ-
ing st. Peter. His body, however,
later was taken to st. Peters church.
The graves go way down into the
earth, and you can see the skeletons.
"Next we went by part of what
was left of the old Roman wall, and
to the Coliseum, one of the real
wonders of the city. I've seen so
many things about early Rome be-
fore and after Christ that I'm hav-
ing dreams about them.
"On another tour we went thru
