The Germans know full well what their enslaved foreign workers will try to do if they get the chance and they are seeking to undermine as many as possible with lush prizes. The German press’ is making

much of these new tactics.

Another sign that German leaders are worried about the potential dangers of foreigners inside the 3d reich is shown by an edict appearing in many Nazi newspapers recently. The: German people are warned against being friendly with prisoners of war. They are forbidden to give or accept presents from such captives regardless of their nationality.

Threaten Nazi Women

Germdn women mingling with prisoners are threatened with heavy

punishment. “You have got to keep holy the honor of the German woman,” warn the Nazi papers reaching Stockholm aboard Berlin planes. One story, deliberately planted in the German press for foreign con-| sumption, tells how French men and women workers inside Germany “are having a wonderful time with good food and songfests.” This story, as.reported in Hitler's Voelkischer Beobachter, blatantly announces: “Everybody is happy.” An escaped French slaveworker read this story in Stockholm and said grimly: “Well, things certainly have changed since I was there— my, they certainly have changed.”

Lonergan Guilty,

Faces 20 Years to ‘Life for Murder

NEW YORK, April 1 (U. P.).— Wayne Thomas Lonergan, R. C. A. P. aircraftman, faced from 20 years to life in prison today for the candlestick murder of his wife, Patricia, heiress to brewery millions. A jury of middle-aged business men last night returned a verdict of second-degree murder, which, in effect, was a gift of life for the former cafe society playboy, since the state had demended the death penalty. Judge James G. wallace, with the red-eyed defendant standing before him and sniffing audibly, fixed April 17 as the date for sentencing. The jury deliberated nine hours and 36 minutes.

JEWS WORRIED IN PALESTINE

But No Terrorism Has Broken Out.

By. RICHARD MOWRER Times Foreign Correspondent JERUSALEM, April 1, —Although the situation in Palestine has been quiet and there have been no shootings or bombings since the imposition on the Jewish communities of Jerusalem, Haifa and Tel

Aviv of the drastic 12-hour curfew a week ago, the Jews are deeply worried’ over the proportions of the wsituation which has developed out

Palestine authorities by the fainatical Jewish minority. | Apprehension in this respect has increased following recent editorial comment in the Arab press blaming 1 the Jews in Palestine for the recent outbreak of terrorism.

Only Small Clashes

The clashes which have occurred have been only between small fanatical groups and police. The Jewish community as a whole has not been connected with the disturbances.

The great mass of Jews deplores both the continued imposition of the curfew, which many regard as a form of collective punishment and blame for the terrorist acts of the irresponsible minority (the Sternist {group whose membership is an | estimated 50 and Irgun Zval Leumi igroup whose membership is esti{mated at 4000), and the lumping to‘gether by the Arab press of the Jewish terrorist minbrity with the bulk of the peaceable, law-abiding Jewish community of Palestine.
