quire payment Of reparations to
the Jewish people.
The Jews were the first victims
OF Maxi Germany's war Of aggres-
sion, Louis Lipsky, chairman Of the
conference Executive Committee,
declared In q statement prepared
for submission to Secretary Of State
Marshal and the British, French
and Soviet Ambassadors.
1T would be Z strange distortion
Of history II the German peace

barous crime and II 1t did not make
provision, 20 far as possible, to right
past wrongs committed against the
jews and to insure Their future Sc

treaties for Germany and Austria
next Monday in Moscow.
Backing up its request with an
850-pege document reviewing Ger

closed at the Nuremberg trials. the
conference asked that the Germany
treaty include these major points:
Il. Germany must acknowledge
her guilt for her crime against the
Jews and punish those who were
responsible and those who benefited.
q. Human rights and funda-
mental freedoms must be secured
for all, discriminatory legislation
abolished and anti-Semitism out
lawed.
"3. Germany must pay repara-
tions to the Jewish people, indem-
Nifty Jews who were victims Of Nazi
persecution, and restore property
taken from the Jews"
a. Property of Jews who were
murdered and who left no heirs
must be turned over to an interna-
tional Jewish body for the purpose
Of relief and resettlement Of Jewish
victims Of Nazi persecution.
IS. Jews must have the right to
emigrate from Germany and to take
their belongings with them, and
Jewish persons now in Germany
must have continued protection of
Allied or international authorities,
but Germany must contribute to
their maintenance.

after any great war "it is never easy
for the victorious Allies to avoid
serious disagreement among them
selves" He added that the Allies
become aware Of differences sub
merged during the common struggle
and find 1t difficult to realize that
common sacrifices are as necessary
to achieve peace as victory"
Despite these difficulties, he de-
clared, the satellite treaties rep

the nations whose fighting made vic

by the United States of any other

Gen. Marshall said he would not
