Germany under q new directive OF
the Allied Control Councils CO.
ordinating Committee.
The directive, promulgated yes

"the punishment of war criminals
Nazis, militarists" and pro-Nazi in
dustrialists: The complete and
lasting destruction of Nazism and
militarism. and the internment OF
surveillance of Germans considered
dangerous to Allied purposes.
Rules Follow Earlier Law.
The military commanders of the
respective occupation zones-Amer-

who themselves make up the Con-

tive into effect.
The rules follow generally the
principles of the denazification law
effective in the American zone since
last June. Their PRONUNCIATION was
held up till after<the international
Military Tribunal handed down its
Nuremberg judgment.
The number of Germans who
might be penalized under the direc-
tive was uncertain. Naz party
members in all Germany, subject to
fines, have been estimated at $500,

u. 5. Army's Program
OF Educating Germans
is Backed by Probers
BY the Assoeioied Press

! BERLIN, Oct. 15.-An exhaustive
report on the democratic re-educa-
ton of the Germans, job which
American spokesmen estimate will
require generations, recommended
today that the United States Gov
ernment should continue its pro-
gram of educational aid to Germany
as carried on by the War Depart
ment.
The report, containing SO recon-
mendations, was based on a survey
undertaken by an American educa-
ton mission in the American zone
last August and September. George
r. Zook, president OF the American
Council on Education, was chairman
of the 10-man mission.
The report will be given the widest
Distribution among Germans in the
German language, a spokesman
said. He added that it also Will
''let the United States know what
is going on and what is being
planned in German re-education to
eliminate all vestiges OF naziism
and milltarism."
Among the basic recommendations
was a modification of German school
curricula, particularly by reorganiz-
ing and emphasizing the social
sciences, in order to effect demo-
cratic citizenship.
DR.. John w. Taylor, chief OF the
education and religious affairs sec
tion of the American Military Gov
ernment, said little progress has yet
been made in revising the curricu-
lum because of the shortage OF
"democratically minded" teachers
and satisfactory textbooks.
The program recommended by the
mission, he continued, will depend
on the education of new teaching
generation in Germany.
Another fundamental suggestion
by the mission was the development
of comprehensive public educa-
tional system based on IL years OF
elementary and secondary schooling
and giving every child equal oppor-
tunities to reach. the university
without the handicaps of social
position, and economic status as was
the case heretofore.

ment--since it is so much lighter
than the entire rocket.
Heavily armored instruments en-
closed In such warhead would have
a fair chance to escape destruction
In the test, it is known that the
automatic device worked according
to schedule and that the top Of the
rocket was detached. It landed
somewhere In the mountains, and
searching parties have failed so far
to locate it.
Steel Container Found.
The second method is to place
instruments in a steel container To-
Gated in the rockets control cham
Der Just behind the warhead.. Once
the latter is detached. the center
of gravity of the rocket changes
and the main body comes to earth
more slowly. The steel box has
been found with the instruments in
good condition.
A third method is to place in
struments In a steel cylinder in
serted between the alcohol and
oxygen tanks just back of the con-
troll chamber. This cylinder has
been located from the air, but a
ground party has not yet been able
to reach it.
The fourth method. probably suit
able only for cameras, is to attach
the instruments to the rockets tail
It proved successful beyond the
anticipations Of the officers who
planned it.
With refinements now being
planned, it is expected that scient-
lists will now be able to send aloft
almost any sort of recording in
strument for observation Of condf-
tions in the ionosphere and get II
back intact This has been con-
sidered in the past the greatest
handicap to use Of the rocket as a
scientific instrument

/ Bad Unrest in Reich
This Winter Is Feared
by American Officials
By The Assseioisd Press

FRANKFURT, Oct. IS. - High
American intelligence sources said
today that overcrowding, hunger and
economic uncertainty might cause
bad unrest" in Germany in the
winter.
But, they said, the United States
Army doesn't expect much Nazi
|subversive activity. Anti-American
resistance, they added, is at its
dullest, !" though 4 careful watch. is
being kept on German veteran or
ganizations termed sthe biggest po-
tential threat to our occupation"
I'VE have plans to meet any pos
sible trouble In the American zone, I"
said these quarters, speaking unofn-
cially. TITS problematic whether
there will be any, but all the poten-
tialities are there"
Major Factors Listed.
They listed these major factors:
!. Population increases ~ United
States zone population Is expected
to jump to II. .450, 600 by the end of
the year-against 5000 900 three
months ago and l4,0O0, 900 in 1888.
2. Overcrowding-Ayailable hous-
ing is taxed 43 per cent over 1899
standards; there is not enough for
all new arrivals, even though most
Germans live like sardines.''
8. Food-The German crop was
better than expected, but the mini
mum calory ration for Germans de-
pends on grain shipments from
America. 1--WE are going to feel the
effects OF the shipping strike right
in the middle of the winter, when
we can least afford it."
4. Major crimes are dropping but
"potentialities exist for a crime
wave"
add up these factors" said the
intelligence authorities, "and you
have all the makings of trouble.
II there is unrest, it can grow into
disorder, and II there Is disorder
among the Germans. 1t can spread
to displaced persons and have an
effect even among our own soldiers. "
Picture Of Subversion.
Reliable intelligence sources drew
this picture of subversive move
ments:
Veterans organizations, led by
fugitive IS elite Guard men, are
the biggest possible danger. Escaped
IS and Wehrmacht men are agi-
tating against the occupation and
helping others to fee prison camps.
Sabotage, armed resistance and
efforts to sway mob opinion are
giving way to long-range plans for
phony social organizations to in
fiuence the theological beliefs of the
masses.
The intelligence men said current
illegal activities weren't much
more than idle threats against de-
notification board members, Ger
mans working for US and leaders OF
the new democratic parties
They warned. however, that "the
will to establish resistance move
ments still is strong among some
German population elements" and
said. I'VE have to keep alert"

Probable pictures of the earth

more than five times the altitude
to which camera ever has been
carried before-now are on their
way to Washington to be developed.
A, few days ago, eight Army Air
Force cameras, provided with spe-
cial steel armor and operated by an
automatic device, were attached to
the tail of a W. rocket shot from
the Ordnance Departments proving
ground at White Sands, N. Mex.
Six ofs these eight cameras have
been recovered intact and still in
operating position, after a search
for several days in the sage-brush
The films appear to have been ex-
posed, as planned. 1t cannot be said
positively, however, that any pic
lures were taken until the films are
developed at the Naval Research
Laboratory here.
The greatest height from which
a picture ever has been taken be-
fore is less than 20 miles over the
Black Hills Of North Dakota for the

more apparent in photographs taken

Attack on Four Towns
In North Greece Laid
To Foreign Lefiisfs
BY the Associated Press

= s
KOZANE, Greece, Oct. IA (De-
yed).--Divisional headquarters
here said today that three
Northern Greek villages were at
tackled and one burned in the
last two nights by bands "di-
rected by Communist agents in
filtrating into Greece daily from
Albania and Yugoslavia."
A Greek post on the Yugoslav
frontier fought of a band esti-
mated at 500, the headquarters
added, and army units sped out Of
Kozarle tonight on information that
another frontier attack was sched-
.Uled for midnight.
South of here Leftist bands, stag
ing their second field day on the
Elasson-Kozane highway, knocked
out six badly needed food trucks.
Three trucks were captured and
taken into fastnesseS around the
foot of Mount Olympus. One was
burned and two turned back after
the drivers and passengers had
been robbed of money, clothes and
baggage.
Six Killed in Two hour Fight.
Headquarters said 200 attackers
shouting "Yugoslav yells" burned
the village of Exohi last night, and
that six outlaws died in a two
hour fight at Krievrissi. Exohi is II
miles north of Kozane and Kriev-
rissi Is nearby.
The Yugoslav frontier army post
was attacked two nights ago and
a nearby village sacked.
Col. Spiros Mandas, Kozane head
quarters commandant, said the
small Greek army was finding great
difficulty in checking the influx of
Communist agents, arms and propa-
ganda sitting through the rugged
frontier country from Yugoslavia
and Albania"
Every day we capture Russian
arms and Communist literature" he
said, ''but we know we are only
scratching the surface. Our frontiers
are too long and too isolated for
close security"
Watch Truck Burned.
Two reporters who made their way
here along mine-pocked highway
witnessed the burning of the one
truck which failed to run the Leftist
gauntlet and interviewed the ter
rorized occupants of one of the
trucks released.
Three old people. one hurt, who
were left in field beside the blazing
vehicle, begged the correspondents,
"Go away. they will kill u.s."
"A rifieman from the band watched
from the foot of hill 80 yards away
while the newsmen photographed
the burning truck.

 The rabbi deplored, the present state of civilization begged in dark ness and gloom and unable to find happiness when we see the other picture of humanity surrounded with the products of technical and scientific advances and blessed with the fruits of mans inventive and spiritual genius"
 What America needs today" he emphasized, 'is moral leadership an intelligent, strong leadership which will carry her forward ir the making of world peace and help her to find happiness for her people. We should bear in mind in these critical times, very an- cient admonition, Not by mind not by power, not by wealth, and not by strength, but by spirit, said the Lord"
 Speaking of his experiences as a chaplain during his two years in the Pacific, Dr. Siskin related that Protestant Catholics and Jews wor- shipped at interfaith services, and little prejudice was ever discerned. In instances where anti-semitic prejudice did exist, he said, it had found root in the communities and home of this nation.
