9kiIIs in Hopes Of
Going 10 New Nation
by the Assoeiofsd Press

/ BABENHAUSEN, Germany, Oct.
23.-Any country looking for skilled
workers as immigrants can find
them II, the displaced persons camps
in Germany.
/ Most OF the men and many of the
women among these people uprooted
by war have trades, handicrafts or
professions needed by countries
short of manpower.
Many DIP camp inmates who had
no skills are learning them in camp
training schools taught by fellow
DPS, hopefully preparing for a
chance to 60 to work in some new
country.
In this DIP camp in Babenhausen
are LOTT people brought by the Nazis
from the Baltic countries OF Latvia,
Esthonia and Lithuania as forced
laborers.
Half Of them are taking voca-
tional training courses. Some who
already have one trade are acquir-
ing another in which 1t might be
easier TO obtain employment in q
strange land.
In varying degrees. the same
process OF self-education is going
on in most DIP camps in Germany.
They learn such practical trades as
weaving, dyeing, tailoring, shoe
making, mechanics, and carpenter
ing.
/ While learning, they not only pro-
duce articles useful in camp life, but
other goods for sale through camp
offices.
The variety of work displaced per-
sons could do if given a chance was
illustrated by recent survey in the
American zone.
The survey showed 10000 Office
workers; 5000 construction and
maintenance workers; 5000 doctors,
nurses and other health or SANTA
ton experts: 10000 communication
workers. including radio, railway
and telegraph experts; 10000
trained In special services" like
BARRIERS, photographers, printers
Evening star., 1947-10-23

Ishoemakers and tarlors: 1900 art
lists or professional people, includ-
ing engineers, musicians. teachers
and writer's; 1000 metal workers,
and 22,OO0 farmers, dairymen or
foresters.
Ofncials of the International
Refugee Organization, who are try
Ing to find new homes for these
displaced people rate 62 per cent as
employable. They say 80 per cent
are actually working now In camps,
although there is no requirement
that they labor. Most of the un-
employables are women or children.
Some Of these varied DIP skills
are being utilized in resettlement

projects which are slowly reducing
camp population by moving the
inmates into new countries as immi-
grant workers.
However, too many countries
seeking immigrants want princi-
pally miners and farm workers. Too
few countries seem to want the
professional people.
IRO ofncials also point out this

danger: So many resettlement prof.
ects exclude unemployable depend
ents that when the employables are
drained OIL there is likely to be a
large residue Of people unable to
maintain themselves In any country.
These leftovers are likely to be-
come perpetual charges under allied
care.

PRIEST WOULD
 LINK MILITARY WITH SCHOOLS
University President Also Says Universal Train
 ing Is Beneficial

WASHINGTON, July 10-(R-- Compulsory military training in high schools was urged at House Armed Services Committee hearing today by he Rev. Dan A. V. Lan- ing, Catho-ic priest of Mission, Tex.
 A buck private in World War I and chaplain in the last war, the Rev. Laning was one of two wit nesses who upheld the principle of Universal military training advocat- ed by a special Presidential com mission.
 The other was Blake R. Van Leer, president of Georgia Tech, Univer- sity, Atlanta.
 Opposing the proposal as the csxxznittee ceatinred hearings that may run into next year were. Ker- init Eby, director of education and research for the CIO, and Rabbi Ahron Ophei of New York, re- presenting the Synagogue Council of America.
 Put mllitery training in all our high schools, colleges and univer- sities. Laning urged the committee. Why begin at the age of l8s . :. by commencing military training in the h!gh school, the nation would be getting the benefit of from four to eight years of continuous train ing as compared to six months or year "as advocated by the Presi- dents commission.
 Rabbi Opher called for streng- thening of the United Nations as the most effective way to maintain peace. Universal military training, he said. runs counter to the intent and purposes" of the LIN and should be resorted to only when there is an imminent threat to national security.
 Van Leer told the committee uni versal military training will un- occasionally improve the education and training of our people, and is necessary now.
 Eby claimed the Presidents com mission was biased from the very beginning" and said it's report was virtually a call to arms" and "an acceptance Of war as inevitable"

ANCHORAGE Alaska, July 10.- 1.-Two Army transport planes loaded with equipment and train ed personnel left Elmendorf Field yesterday for Kenai in the battle against a 250,O00 acre timber fire moving menacingly toward the peninsula town.
 The 25 engineer troops were to concentrate today on keeping the flames from the town of Kenal. The Alaska Road Commission was to furnish five bulldozers, transport the men to the fire front and aid in cutting fire break strips. Planes patrol the fire to keep crews below informed of it's progress.
 The fire fighting troop was chos- en for the experience gained in battling flames at smaller fires in the Fort Richardson, Anchorage and Palmer areas.
 Army officials said the fire was burning on 20-mile front, and that rain Tuesday had little ef- feet.

SEN, WALKER IN JU EAU
 ABOUT PULP

Senator Norman R. Walker of Ketchikan flew to Juneau from Ketchikan yesterday to confer with the Executive Board of the Juneau Chamber of Commerce and Mayor Waino E. Hendrickson regarding support for pending Congressional legislation which would open the forests of Southeast Alaska to pulp and paper mill development.
 He left by plane today for Petersburg and Wrangsll where he will meet with city and civic otfi- cials on the same problem Senator Walker may leave this week for Washington to appear in person in support of the legislation which has been delayed through the op- position of four Indians from this area and their attorney, James E.. Curry
 Walker charged last week, in an open letter to Alaska Delegate E. L. Bartlett that Curry, formerly with the Indian Office, was forced to resign because of "subversiye activities" and is naturally oppos- ed to tie developl1ent-- Alaska, so close to the beloved land of ideologies he believes in
 Curry should have the Order of Lenin for his efforts in retarding the development of, Alaska, a strate- gic military area" Walker said
 The Federal government is now spending millions of dollars to de- velop the Territory and make it a strong bulwark of defense, the Ketchikan Senator said. If the pulp and paper industry is brought to Alaska it will mean an expendi- ture of $150,o0O,000 for the develop ment of Alaska which won't cost the government cent, and provide employment for thousands of peo- pie, both white and Indian
