THE CITY BEAUTIFUL"

in the land. But by calling the
land Eretz Israel it became clear
that none but the children of
Israel have rights upon it. When a
great rabbi returned from a visit
to the Holy Land he was asked
whether he returned a wiser man,
since it is said that the very at
mosphere is conducive to greater
wisdom. The rabbi remained
silent and the question unanswer-
ed. When a close relative to him
summoned the courage to repeat
the question, the rabbi replied
that silence is the height of wis
dom. In the event of an attack
on Eretz Israel a groom may leave
his chamber and a bride the can
opy. If one wishes to settle in
Eretz Israel and the parents are
against it he may disobey them
without trespassing the command
ment about honoring parents.
When the great Levi Isaac Ber-
dichiver wrote marriage contracts
for his children he inserted a pro-
vision that the marriage is to take
place in the Holy Land. The con-
tract provided that in the event
the Redeemer does not appear at
the time of the marriage the
wedding would take place at Ber-
dichev. These few gems have been
extracted from Yiddish volume,
entitled Treasures from Eretz
Israel" authored by Rabbi Naftali
Horowitz and published by Par
DIES Publishing Corporation.
The Israeli daily ''Davar" has a
reputation for linguistic purism
but in its zeal to maintain its
high standard it recently fell into
an error which had the whole

it was decreed that Moses is not

land. No man can compel his wife
to go with him to another land,
not even to Eretz Israel. No one
is permitted to leave Eretz Israel

Moses pleaded with God saying

he must die with an unspeakable

was that when Joseph had been

Gas os-SeoIed Case Being Built
To Protect Historic U.S.. Papers

A gas-sealed case is being de-
veloped by the Bureau Of Stand
ards to preserve the Declaration
Of Independence and the consti-
tuition.
Government scientists have been
working about two years with the
Libby -Owens-Ford Glass Co. to
perfect the case. They believe
the documents can be kept indefi-
nitely by sealing them inside a
glass container filled with an inert
gas-probably helium. An inert
gas is free from chemical re-
actions.
A gauge viii be attached to tell
whether any leaks occur. and to
assure the proper temperature.

Committee Clears
House Bill 10 Prevent
IKnauf Deportation

A House judiciary subcommittee
today unanimously recommended
a bill which would prevent the
immigration Service from deport-
ing Mrs. Ellen Knauf1. German
born wife of an excl.
Chairman Walter. Democrat of
Pennsylvania. announced the de-
cision shortly after Mrs. Knauff
denied emphatically that she has
ever engaged in espionage or
other activity detrimental to the
United States.
Mrs. Knauff. who has been in
custody Of immigration officials at
Ellis Island since October, l948,
told the committee that she sus-
pected a woman rival for her hus-
band had circulated rumors which
led the immigration Service to
rate her bad security risk.
Won't Specify Charges. :.
immigration authorities under
took to deport the war bride after
announcing that she was consid-
cred a bad risk but steadfastly
have refused to specify what
charges were responsible for the
decision.
Mrs. Knauff, who is 35, said she
was born in Germany but lost
her citizenship when she married
Czech in 1884. She divorced him
three years later but remained in
Czechoslovakia. Later she went
to England. she said, and even
tually was employed by the Royal
Air Force.
After the war she obtained work
as a censor with the United States
Army Signal Corps at Frankfurt,
Germany. She said she was
cleared by intelligence agencies
both in England and with the
American occupation forces.
Refuses to Name Woman.
Under close questioning by
committee members, she finally
admitted that another woman
may have spread false reports
which led to the security risk
statement.
Mrs. Knauff refused to name
the woman lin front of the press"
but said she was among several
to whom her husband had been
attentive. The soldier, Kurt
knauft, naturalized American,
married her early in l948. He now
is a civilian employe with the
occupation forces in Germany.
A. r. Mackey. deputy commits
sloner OF the immigration Service
was among those in the audience
but declined to make any state
ment to the committee on the
case. Chairman Walter announced
that the service had submitted a
report reviewing the events of the
case in chronological order but
shed no light on reasons for it's
actions. The report stated simply
that the agency has authority to
exclude aliens considered poor

the sources of its confidential in

Text of Trunon-G Gray Letters on World Trade

KEY WEST, Fla, April D.
FOLLOWING are the tertS of Presi-
dent Truman's letter yesterday
to Gordon Gray on his dollar
gap-closing assignment. as spe-
cial assistant to the President,
and Mr.. Gray's reply to Mr..
Truman:
March 81, 1850.
My dear Mr.. Gray:
am highly pleased that you
find it possible to undertake an
assignment as special assistant to
the President prior to assuming
your duties later this year as
president of the University of
North Carolina. The task which
you are undertaking is of major
Importance to this country.
Today the American people can
look back with pride over our
record in the field of foreign
policy during the past five years.
1t is record of achievement in
creating strong base for mill
tary defenses against the forces
of aggression; in the development
of international political institu-
tions. and in creating economic
programs designed to reinforce
and expand the economic base for
world peace.
Assistance Is Essential.
1t is hardly necessary to en-
phasize again that economic Sc
curity is an essential element OF
personal security. Our people
adopted such programs as the Eu-
ropean recovery program and aid
to Greece, Turkey and Korea, in
the belief that. as the free ma
tions felt the surge. of economic
strength and the reinsurance OF
normal economic relationships,
hope and freedom would be re-
vived, sustained. and strengthened.
This assistance is essential to
help not only Europe but other
areas of the world to recover
from the war and to strengthen
their economies against Com
munist subversion or aggression.
AS the result of foreign efforts
and American assistance, in many
areas production has increased to
the point where shortages have
diminished and the central IN
ternational economic problem has
shiften to the field of trade. Most
countries of the world are depend
ent on foreign trade for their
economic survival. Their prob
lem is especially difficult because

Officials also have impressed on
Congress at this session the fact
that. as the Marshall Plan draws
toward an end. the United States
will have to accept more imports
from Europe to make up for the
dollar shortage that will still exist
in Europe's trade market in 1852.
The hearings give a rosy picture
of the progress Gen. Douglas
Macarthur has made in putting
Japan on the road to recovery,
and planting the seeds of de-
mocracy in that nation of "a
million people.
Undersecretary of the Army
Tracy S. Voorhees, testified that
in 1948 about rs per cent Of total
imports into Japan we're paid for
by the United States appropriated
funds. For next year the Army is
asking for funds to cover only
26.4 per cent.
Three Fourths from Earnings.
In other words" he said, the
situation has been reversed. In
stead of three fourths coming
from appropriated funds, and one
quarter from earnings, now, prac-
tically three-quarters will come
from earnings"
The witness also pointed out
that Japan has included in its
new budget the yen equivalent
of 1927 million as an occupation
cost. This means, he said, that
the amount of economic aid being
requested from Congress for Ja-
pan is about $50 million less than
the amount Japan is providing
for United States Army expenses.
Mr.. Vorhees, after two visits
to Japan in the last six months,
reported that the economic re-
covery is only the foundation for
the most important things. which
are the growth Of the japanese
in the power to govern themselves
through democratic processes,
their independence of commu-
nism, and their orientation. which
is now so friendly toward the
United States"

committee in charge of foreign
aid was considering Europe. its

Eisenhower's Defense
Ideas Will Get Quick
Action, Hill Predicts
BY the Assaeiotsd Press

Senator Hill. Democrat, of Ala
bama, predicted today that Con-
greSs will act quickly to strength
en- the weak links he said Gen.
Eisenhower has pointed out in
American defenses.
Senator Hill, a member of the
Senate Appropriations Commit
tee, said he thought Gen. Eisen-
hover did the country "a tre-
mendous service" by stating last
week that some changes are
needed in the military budget.
The General has put his
finger on those places where the
greatest emphasis is needed at
the present time to build up our
defenses," Senator Hill said. II
think Congress will act quickly to
provide funds to meet his recon-
mendations.
General Eisenhower wrote
Chairman Elmer Thomas of a
Senate Appropriations subcom-
mittee that defense of Alaska is
so important that it ought to be
considered ahead Of almost any
other project.
Asks More for Air Force.
The general, former chairman
of the Joint Chiefs of Staff who
now is President of Columbia
University, proposed that the Air
Force be given at least SIS billion
a year for new planes to keep up
its fighting strength. This is
$3.50 million more than the House
Appropriations Committee has al
lowed in approving an omnibus
money bill.
The general called for rein
forcement of our anti-submarine
facilities" modernization of tanks
and other Army equipment and
said intelligence and industrial
mobilization activities should have
more funds and more attention.
The anti-submarine proposal
struck popular note, as did the
generals appeal for more Air
Force funds.
Senators Maybank, Democrat,
of South Carolina and Bridges,
Republican. of New Hampshire
said they will urge the committee
to earmark funds for improve
ment of American defenses against
submarines.
New Secret Weapons.
Some of this money evidently |
will go to installation of new secret
weapons on submarine hunting
airplanes.
Senator Bridges noted that while
Congress had provided about $40
million last year for anti-subma-
rine developments, the funds were
diverted to other uses.
Senator Maybank said he thinks
the anti-submarine program ought
to be stepped up. He said this
might be done by converting de-
stroyers, cruisers and other ships
into anti-submarine craft, with
new equipment to be built later.
Only a week ago a top Navy |
expert said he had reason to be-
lieve a development is just ahead
which will enable the United
States to drive submarines off the
seas"
The officer, Rear Admiral c. B.
Momsen. inventor of the Nom |
sen lung used for escape from
sunken submarines. now is as
sistant Chief of Naval Operations
for undersea warfare.
