 For 'Re-educaiion'
 Not Returned

Berlin, Aug. B. CUP) - Several thousand teen-age German children were taken from their homes in the Soviet occupation zone in 1945 for what the Russians described as Ire education" and have not yet been returned, a high German official said today

 The German official said severa, thousand German boys and girlf between the ages of 13 and IT were being held in camps and were given no opportunity to communicate with their parents.
 Boys Predominate
 The children were supposed to have disappeared at various times from April to December, 1945. About nine boys were said to have been taken for every girl.
 Parents have been arriving in Berlin in increasing numbers to re- port missing children. They have appealed to Soviet authorities Ger man church officials and neutral welfare organizations for help.
 Some parents said they were told by the Russian secret police that their children would be kept for two years.
 One neutral welfare agency in Berlin has several lists of children whose parents claim they were taken from their villages in what ever clothes they were wearing and were not allowed to take any luggage
 Return Promised
 One list contains the names of l35 children allegedly taken from Calau County. Another lists 120 children apparently removed from Lueben County Both of the areas are in Saxony.
 Welfare agency officials were told by some parents that German au- thorities said their children would be returned soon"
 Political affiliations of the par ents apparently were not considered, according to welfare agency in vestigation of the disappearances. Some parents claimed they were members of the German Commit hist Party.
 Several mothers from Branden- burg province were among the most recent to visit Berlin and appeal for aid They claimed that six districts Of the province had been almost emptied" Of youths in the l3-l7 age bracket

"Mr. Bradford was the mott

Employment Practice Legisla-
ton. On July 9, 1945, a large
group Of citizens called upon
Goernor Tobin in the interest
of the Fair Employment Prac-
tice Bill. 1 was one of that
group. The Governor made
the statement at that time that
he was going to appoint a com
mittee of representative citi-
zens to bring the issue Of Fair
Employment Practices to the
people Of the Commonwealth
and that a report would be
made by that committee before
the legislature convened in
in January, 1946.

committee had been appointed
On November 10, 1945, Lieuten-
ant Governor Bradford, speak
ing before the Mems Club and
the Women's Alliance of the
First Parish Church in Brook
line, brought this matter to
their attention and stated that
no committee had been APP
pointed and that lip service is
not enough.
Mr.. Bradford added that
some form of guarantee that
there be no discrimination in
employment, is merely per-
Torrance of what is pledged in
our fundamental and organic
law. In other words, Mr.. Brad
ford had to prod the Govern
or to get this committee ap-
pointed.
I have dedicated most of my
public life in trying to bring
our people into that light and
position to which we are justly
entitled. I have tried to merit
your confidence; so I now feel
justified in honestly advising
that, for the benefit of all, we
vote for Robert F. Bradford for
I Governor of this Common
wealth."
