Admit Theft of $100,000
In Stocks and Bonds
KETCHIKAN (J* — Three Ket
chikan youths, 13, 12 and 10 years
old, at a juvenile hearing here
Wednesday admitted the theft of
more than $100,000 in stocks and
bonds and S103 in currency from
the safe of a retired businessman.
The incident, according to Ju
venile Judge Richard Lauber, oc
curred last Tuesday. City police
recovered all but $7 of the cur
rency.
Police picked up the three boys
within four hours of the theft.
The securities — stocks and bonds
and mortgages — were recovered
from St. Elizabeth Church yard.
The boys thinking them worthless
had buried the papers in the mud.
Except for water damage the
stocks were returned intact.
Sgt. W. O. Smith, investigating
officer said the boys went to the
home of the businessman and one
engaged him in conversation, one
acted as lookout and the 13-year
old boy entered a bedroom and
grabbed a strong box from an
open safe.

Japanese Fisherman
Flan to Invade Bering
Sea Again This Year
SEATTLE (iP — Japanese fish
eries firms are planning to put
another vast fleet into the Bering
Sea this year, according to the
Market News Service of the Bu
reau of Commercial Fisheries.
That fleet is beginning to move
out now to its summer’s work.
Japanese sources indicate it will
include 20 motherships averaging
more than 3,000 gross tons and 15
independent draggers and long
liners averaging mole than 1,000
gross tons.
This year’s catch target for the
fleet is 61,000 metric tons of fish
meal and 175,437 metric tons of
frozen fish.
However, the Japanese Fishery
Agency has announced that Ja
panese bottom fishermen will be
barred from fishing south of the
Alaska Peninsula because of the
likelihood that they might catch
halibut there. That halibut fishery
is barred to the Japanese under
the International North Pacific
Fisheries Treaty.

[ More Evidence Piling Up
j Against Adolf Eichmann
By Reiman Morin
JERUSALEM UP! — Joseph P.
j Kennedy, father of President
Kennedy reported in 1938 that the
outlook for the Jews in Germany
was “very bad,” evidence intro
duced Thursday in the trial of
Adolf Eichmann showed.
Kennedy was the American
Ambassador to Great Britain at
1 the time. Kennedy cabled to the
State Department on Dec. 8, 1938.
Asst. Atty. Gen. Ya’akov Bar’or
told the judges it was obtained
from the National Archives in
Alexandria, Va.
Kennedy relayed a report, re
ceived from the French Foreign
Office, of a conversation between
Nazi Foreign Minister Joachim
Von Ribbentrop and French Am
bassador Henri Bonnet.
“The results were very bad,”
Kennedy cabled Washington.
Kennedy’s message also refer
red to “financial arrangements”
and “our plans with the British.”
Bar’or said Kennedy’s cable was
about “the refugees from Ger
many, ways of helping them and
easing their situation.”
The Kennedy report was one of
several dozen entered in the rec
ord Thursday by Bar’or.
He produced documents, photo
stats, quotations from speeches
and copies of letters. They all
served to fill in the picture of the
situation of Jews in Germany
on the eve of World War II, and
the measures taken by Nazis to
force them to leave Germany
penniless.
Many of the documents, Bar’or
told the court, were microfilmed
from originals of the Nazi papers
now kept in the Archives at Alex
andria, Va.
