Schocht Tops !. Q. Exams
 For2O Nuzis
By ANN SPRINGER

Nuernperg, Dec. (UP) - Com pleted psychological tests of the Nal war crimes defendants in Nuremberg prison showed Hjalmar Schacht leading with genius classification of 143 and Jew-baiter Julius Streicher rating as just average" Prison Psychologist Gus tav M. Gilbert told the United Press today.
 Arthur Seyss 1nquart, former Na1i chancellor of Austria, scored Al placing him alongside Schacht in the top one per cent of the worlds population.
 Rudolf Hess tentatively was scored 1O2 average" but Gilbert pointed out the tests were made during his "amnesia" period and could not be considered final.
 Hess Shows Improvement
 He said that tests in the two days since Hess announced he was sane showed improvement in memory span and faster reactions although his score had not increased
 Gilbert said he believed Hess an- nouncement of faking amneSia was motivated by fear he might be re- moved from the umenght in court.
 Streicher who scored only 106 was described as inferior in most re- spects except for verbal facility which took the form of maudlin sentimentality and sensationalism."
 Scoring of other defendants were:
 Herman Goering and Karl DoenitZ 138;
 Franz von Papen, 134;
 Hans Frank, Hans Fritzche and Baldur von Schirach, 130;
 Joachim von Ribbentrop and Will helm Keitel, 129;
 Alfred Jodl and Alfred RoSen- berg, 127;
 Constantin von Neurath and Will helm Prick, 125;
 Walter Funk, 124 and Fritz saus- kel, 118.
 Goering Jubilant
 Gilbert said he complimented Goering on his score and that the No. 2 Na1 "beamed like a spoiled child. slapped his thighs enthusias- tically and asked for another chance"
 The greatest difficulty encoun- tered, Gilbert said, was when he attempted to test former School teacher Streicher on arithmetic.
 He said Streicher angrily refused to answer simple addition and sub- traction questions. After long per- suasion he said he found out that Streicher could not work the sim plest problems.
 He said all of the others were cooperative and meek and even welcomed the tests as change from solitary confinement.
 Gilbert used the German version of the Wechsler Bellevue Adult h. telngence test, computing with al- lowance for mental deterioration and old age.

Word Pictures Reueal How We'll Stocked
 Were Maxi Magnates

Iserlohn, Germany, Dec. 5 = (UP) Flying squads of the British In- telligence Corps Shuttled through the Ruhr for nine hours during the night last week and arrested 76 Ger man industrial magnates in con- certed blow at the brains of the former Nazi war might.
 Orders were issued for the arrest of 84 economic chieftains in the Ruhr and Rhineland. A search still was going on for the remainder who were expected to be rounded up.
 One was arrested in bed with his blond mistress. Another was asleep with his wife. A third was taken in an old fashioned night shirt and hood. Still another was hauled away from a champagne party.
 The designer of the Tiger tanks and the man who built the guns for the super-battleships Bismarck and Trpitz were among the arrested in- duStrianstS.
 Under Long Vigilance
 An investigation of Ruhr and Rhineland steel fagnates who oper- ate under the British military gov ernment had been going on for some time.
 At Il o'clock Friday night, orders were given to start the raid. Security Police directed by high intelligence officers and assisted by German po- lice struck without warning in the Essen, Dortmund, Dusseldorf, Bo- chum and Cologne area. The last arrest was made at 2 6. m.
 Some were taken from palaces whose cellars were crammed with stocks of food, wine and coal in the midst of the most abject poverty.
 All were herded into 8 British internment camp. They will be ex- anlined, and those who are recalci- trant will be sent to the United Ma tionS legal staff at Nuremberg.
 Prominent Listed
 The most prominent of the arrest ed induStrialsts were:
 DR. ERICH MILLER, who design ed and built Krupp's long range guns which Shelled Dover across the Channel and designed the rifles of the Biscarch and Tirpitz. He also colaborated on the turret design for the Tiger tanks.
 DIR. KARL SCHONROCK, direc- tor of the Thyssen concern. He was found in bed with a blonde baroness in luxurious apartment. A British sergeant started to search Schon- rocks wallet and the baroness tear fully asked for the letters in it.
 ERNST KREYSS, steel magnate who delayed his arrest until he in- troduced 8 soldier to his wife, who was lying in bed with him. Kreyss was wearing what the soldier called "a long nightshirt with some sort of hood that looked like woman's hat"
 DR. WALTER EICHOLZ, director of one of the main Thyssen groups. He once tried to kill himself.
 FRITZ BAUM, who was taken at a palatial place in Essen, where he was drinking champagne with his wife and friends.

UNO Has Choice of Many Sites as Permanent Home

New York, Dec. s - (UP) - II you're having trouble finding suitable house or apartment, con- sider the plight of the United Na- tions organization.
 Almost everybody, especially dozen or more American cities, would like to make 8 permanent home for the organization dedicated to lasting world peace. And their offers are free of landlord or lease problems, too.
 San Francisco, Philadelphia, Chi cago, New York, Hawaii, the Black Hills of South Dakota, Detroit and Sault Ste. Marie, Mich. Saratoga Springs and others would like to unroll thick red carpets for UNO diplomats.
 Frisco In Strong Bid
 San Francisco, which played host to the first UNO meeting last spring, is considered to hold the inside track, but none of the other American cities is willing to con- cede defeat-yet. All the contenders have offered impressive sites and most of them have put architects and engineers to work sketching plans and build ings. They figure nothing IS too good for permanent tenant.
 The executive committee of the UNO's preparatory commission which voted recently to establish permanent headquarters in the United States, is scheduled to meet in London Nov. g to make a specif- ic recommendation to the UNO's general assembly. The assemoly will convene during the first week of January.
 Protocol Rules Campaign Although fairly intense, the cam paign among American cities to ob- tain the UNO's permanent head quarters is being conducted quietly behind the scenes with suitable at- tention to details of protocol thanks to the U. S. State Depart ment. This is considered something of a handicap for such seasoned convention-snatchers as Chicago and Philadelphia.
 In this campaign there is no but tonholing of delegates, no laVlsh cocktail parties, no entertainment no big money inducements. By far the most pretent1ous pres entation comes from Hawaii, whose invitation to the UNO was in the form of a 55-pound book extolling tha virtues of what Mark Twain once described as "the ,loveliest fleet of islands that lie anchored in any ocean"
 Hawaii believes it Is uniquely ap- propriate because it is the home or Pearl Harbor, whose surprise bomb ing carried our country into World war II and overnight brought unity to the American people.
 Tradition Of Tolerance No community in the world, 1t saws. has a richer tradition of ra- cial, tolerance. It points to up-to- date travel and communications fa- cilities and metropolitan advantages i in a tranquil and peaceful setting. It is global-
 Philadelphia. the "city of Broth erly Love-" believes the UNO should accept its invitation because it Is the "cradle of liberty" It boasts also of its closer proximity to Lcn- don and Moscow and Washington capital cities of key UNO members.
