Picked men of the American constabulary force swooped down on carefully selected targets today to confiscate what may be the last remnants of the Naal treasure trove. Millions of dollars worth of jewels, gold and silver were found in scores of secret hiding places. This was the fabulous hoard which the Nazis had tucked away just before V-E day.

A resolution allocating $2000 to the City hospital for the follow-up care of indigent cancer patients was approved by the board. This was subject to agreement of the Indiana Cancer society to donate to the Indiana University Medical center for purchase of radium. .

Keep Knowledge Secret Military government officials kept the knowledge that they had the list from the Germans for three .months and then suddenly activat- | Bd the force of picked men and | German constables for the raid. There were 367 targets for the 24-hour operation and so .far results have been tabulated from only 79.

Disposition of ‘the’ corporate or|

tered valuables will be decided by

the military government but it is a foregone conclusion that the wealth will be confiscated. All the valuables should have been registered with the allied military government. Many of the Germans who were found at the hiding “places were arrested. Fragmentary tabulation of the
