Senator Ferguson, Republican,

Roger Tubby. a department

and comments on the situation

said, there is no information here
on what further development
there may be-if any"
Representative Brown, Republi-
can. Of Ohio commented to re-
porters on Eisler's release: What
gratitude! What a shining ex-
ample of international co-opera-
ton! What great demonstra-
ton Of appreciation by the British
government of the sacrifices we
have been making to aid the Brit
ish people"
But Representative Walter,
Democrat. of Pennsylvania said
he thinks the London courts rul-
ing was correct, and that the fault
lies in this country's laws. He
said a House Judiciary Subcom-
mittee which he heads probably
will go ahead now and approve
legislation permitting deportable
aliens to be kept in jail.

Buenos Aires Editor
Defends Paper Banned
lin j. ). Zone OF Reich
BY the Assoeioted Press

BUENOS AIRES. May 28.-The
editor OF Der Veg. German-lan-
guage magazine published here
and banned Thursday in the
American occupation zone OF
Germany. denied yesterday that
his publication is pro-Nazi.
In issuing the ban, American
Military Government officials in
Frankfurt said nothing as vio-
lently pro-Nazi has appeared since
the hey-day of the Hitler regime
The editor. Eberhard Fritsch,
said banning of the magazine was
based on false information" He
expressed the belief that Ameri-
can military authorities got their
information from enemies OF Der
Veg in Buenos Aires. Fritsch
added he hopes the ban in the
American occupation zone will
soon be lifted.
He said reports from Frankfurt
that Der Veg has certain persons
among its contributors who were
prominent in Hitler Germany are
absolutely untrue" Referring to
those named specifically in Frank
furt. Fritsch said:
Col. Otto Skorzeny. fugitive Nazi
who kidnapped" Mussolini on
Hitler's orders, had no connection
with the magazine other than the
fact Der Veg had announced it
would publish his memoirs. Fritsch
said these memoirs had been pub
lished in various countries. includ-
ing Argentina. He added he does
not know Skorzeny or where he Is.
Hanna Reitsch, famed one-time
Nazi aviatrix, has been denazified,
Fritsch said. He added Der Veg
intended to publish one Of her
letters written to friends in Brazil.
DR.. Colon Ross, German explorer
and author who was the third per-
son mentioned in Frankfurt in
connection with Der Weg's list of
contributors, has been dead for
four years, Fritsch said. The mag
azine intended to publish travel

Letters to The Star

people when they know that, according to
the law of averages, these people will be
unable to get hospital benefits. 1t is un-
fair. Herein lies the weakness of the volun-
tary insurance plans as recommended by the
A. M. A. There must be more beds available
for all people, especially the colored people
all over the country.
If these voluntary health organizations
would build more hospitals, set up dlagnostlc
clinics, build more medical schools, enlarge
those already established, assist medical
students, train more nurses and charge
fee low enough so that all could join, then
maybe their plan would work.
But it is impossible for them to DO these
things for the whole country. The require
ments necessary to improve medical care
are vast, too colossal, too intricate for iso-
lated groups. even though sincere, to tackle.
The only answer is the United States Gov
ernment which morally is bound TO look
after the health Of all Of its citizens

theology here offered to frustrated world
is undoubtedly the Gibraltar of hope to which
we must all cling!"
The creed of Caux is: An evil idea can
be stopped with only one weapon, better
idea The basis of its theology is to build a
quartet of virtues and values into every
human relationship-purity, honesty. un-
self1shness and love. tt e'sinct--l in
action is irresistible. In the struggle be-
tween class and class. and race and race, 1t
offers the healing balm of an understanding
and a mutual trust which bridges all CULTS.
It is all happening now at Caux, for Marxists
and capitalists, for captains of labor and OF
management for men from the Orient and
the Occident, for white and black and
brown. With old hates and hurts forgotten.

Under the spell of Caux once rabid Com
munists have utterly renounced the MARKHAM
gospel of hate. One who had followed the
party line for 80 years testified: I see now
that Marxists carry in their minds great
deal of rubbish And so do Socialists and
capitalists. They all need to be changed.
A labor leader, heading unions influencing
over 100000 members. beholding selfishness
