spotted Mr.. Crandall's 33-foot
cruiser, half submerged.
Mr.. Tibbs, with the aid of his
son Homer, 18, and seven passen-
gers, took the five off the boat. He
said the craft apparently had struck

Fighting Sergeant

A motor transportation officer
who realized his ambition to battle

cred by the Germans after firing
his last ammunition, were the
latest recipients of the Congress
sional Medal of Honor announced
by the War Department today.

that shattered two enemy counter
attacks in Nurnberg, Germany, last
April II. He killed and wounded
about 40 enemy troops and cleared

Sought Motor Pool Site.
4 He had gone forward to select
a site for his motor pool when he
detected a group of 10 Germans
preparing to counterattack. He ran
back, got machine gun and set 1t
up. That was just the beginning of
a lively fracas.
Other Germans brought up a
machine gun and blasted at him
from different angle. 1t. Burke
knocked out its crew and turned
his attention again to the original
group. Then he went back and set
up his motor pool, grabbed some
grenades and returned for another
skirmish. Despite snipers taking
pot shots at him from various di-
rections he rushed a house where
some Germans had holed up and
tossed three grenades inside.
The Germans were wiped out and
the lieutenant was dazed. But not
so dazed that he couldn't grab a
rifle and shoot three more of the
enemy. Then he retired to the
American lines and helped a pla-

BorkIey Urges Palestine
As Refuge for Jews

BY the Associated Press.
LOS ANGELES, Nov. 5.-Senate
Majority Leader Barkley declared
yesterday that homeless European
Jews must be provided a refuge and
Palestine seems the logical place
for them.
Speaking before the Goth ami
versary conference of the United
Palestine Appeal, Senator Barkley
told his audience that establishment
of a Jewish commonwealth in Pal
estine was another matter to be
considered separately and later. The
immediate problem, he added, is to

licenses provided they are granted
by the commission with the approval
Of the President.
In the Senate, Chairman McMa-
hon called a special 1I-member
committee together for it's first real
bite at the subject-choice of a
scientific adviser.
Members said they expect Ed
ward U. Condor, confirmed by the
Senate last week as director of the
Bureau Of" Standards. to be offered
the post.
While there seemed unanimity on
the thought that the new group
needs all the scientific help it can
get, opinion appeared divided on
how soon it will be in a position to
tackle legislation.
Some Seek Early Action.
Some members have said the
committee ought to go to school for
month to find out about the atom
and what it does when it breaks up.
But Senators johnson, Democrat,
of Colorado; Austin, Republican, of
Vermont, ana Millikin. Republican,
of Colorado say they believe action
is needed pretty soon.
1--WE can't make physicists out of
ourselves and there is no use trying, .
Senator Nllikin said. We'll have
to handle this subject as laymen."
Meanwhile, the first of a series of
international moves aimed at
eventually controlling or removing
the atomic bomb menace will be
undertaken here next week end. 1t
probably will result in a joint Anglo
American-Canadian plan which will
then be taken up with Russia and
other nations.
Prime Ministers Attlee of Great
Britain and Mackenzie King of Can
ada are due at the White House by
next Sunday. They are coming at
President Truman's invitation to
decide:
l. What possible controls there
are to prevent future atomic war
and make certain that the bomb will
not fall into the hands of some
ruthless international gangster.
2. What steps to take toward
putting controls into workable form.
Council May Get Problem.
Indications here are that Mr..
Attlee will argue initially for
handling the problem through the
United Nations Security Council.
This may be acceptable to Mr.. Tru-
man and Mr.. King. The Presidents
only policy announcement has been
that he hoped eventually the world
would reach such state that the
atomic bomb could be outlawed.
1t is known, however, that some
of the Presidents scientific advisers
as well as some of his diplomatic
counSellors believe the best proce-
dure at present is not to rely on any
treaty or agreement but to seek an
international. inspection system in
exchange for making available to
the world full cientific-though not
detailed Observation-Disclosures on
the bomb and on atomic energy.
Whatever the three decide, it
seems certain that they will then
take steps to discuss the matter with
Russia. Moscow editorial and radio
opinion has been calling for inter-
national handling of the bomb
project. Beyond that the matter
would be taken up with other ma
tions and possibly finally with the
IJnited Nations orca pizatjop

|Yanks Still Hunting
S Troopers High in
Mountains Of Austria
BY the Associated Press

| BY the Associated Press.
OCCUPIED GERMANY. 1t still
doesn't seem as though the war is
over for a few Sd Division Dough-
boys who continue to probe the
wooded mountain slopes southeast
of Werfen, Austria, seeking SIS
troopers reported hidden high in
the snow spotted Alps.
The 18th Regiments Intelligence
and Reconnaissance Platoon keeps
steadily at it. Patrols ride jeeps as
high as they will go and walk on
from there. Sometimes they get
into snowy terrain where it is plenty
cold, even in July.
"You don't notice it much until
you STOP" said Pfc. Edward, M.
Manns, Hoboken, N. j., then you
feel it plenty"
He laughed ruefully and then
added: "You know this mountain
climbing would be fun if you didn't
have to do it. But with a gun and
all your equipment, not so good"
Patrols Pay Dividends.
But 1t pays dividends. The other
day they took an IS captain with
five troopers and two women.
To the Sd Division, incidentally
has gone the credit for one of the
most successful experiments in re-
educating German prisoners of war,
eliminating dangerous militaristic
tendencies and ferruting out war
criminals hidden in the ranks of
the Wehrmacht.
Due to administrative exigences at
the end of the war, about 6,700
prisoners were on the divisions
hands. They were organized along
their own army lines with their own
officers in charge. For while things
ran smoothly until it was discovered
that German officers were intimi-
dating their men and discriminating
against non-Germans who had been
drafted into the Wehrmacht. Also
they were using sticks as rifles and
giving drills and lectures on guerrilla
warfare.
Much of this was due to the fact
that the prisoner rank contained
many hidden war criminals. AL
ready four skin graftings had been
performed secretly to remove blood
type Identification tattoos found
under the arm of all troopers.
Officers Isolated.
The Americans promptly dissolved
all n0Dc0rnrniSSioned officer grades
among the prisoners, isolated COM
missioned officers from enlisted men
and put one American enlisted man

Icurrents. resistance and resentment
gradually ebbed.
But of more immediate impor-
lance were the tangible results:
Out of 6,70o prisoners, the first
10 days brought the identification
of more than $500 Waffen SIS and
Allgemeine SIS troops hidden within
the ranks of the regular Wehr-
macht.
In addition, So dangerous ALICE
meme political SIS operators were
discovered many of them with
notorious backgrounds as guards in
such places as Dachau and Buchen-
valid concentration camps.
The division has followed blunt
and simple recipe:
I'VE don't push them around but
we don't coddle them. We simply
give them a straight forward deal.

The groups were given labor pun

were held up whenever they were
found to be harboring war criminals
and the cause for the penalties was
carefully explained. CT command
ers set aside an hour day to hear
each individual story the German
soldiers might have to tell, with the
understanding that the story would
be held in complete confidence, at
least until the criminals were identi-
fed and their cases handled.
With this going on, the GIs gave
the Germans a taste of democracy
in action by permitting them to
print their own daily paper with
German editors, giving the camp

Units smaller than a battalion
we're permitted to have their own
commanders, but they were care
fully screened to see they were anti
Nazis, or at least, not ardent party
operators. Thus even while pris-
oners were being penalized for hid
ing war criminals and engaging in
militaristic activities, they were
given a sort of supervised self
government and their physical
energies were being released
through normal sports.
