U. S. Bans Red
Poster In Berlin
BERLIN, </P)—A poster bearing
part of a speech by V. M. Molotov
was banned yesterday in the
American sector of Berlin. It was
called “an insult to the United
States.”
In the speech, delivered at the
London meeting of the foreign
ministers council, the Soviet for
eign minister accused the United
States of seeking "to enslave Ger
many and Europe through dollar
diplomacy."
The Russians demanded lifting
of the ban. The Allied komman
dantur then charged that it repre
sented a "tactless and unfriendly
pet” against the No. 2 man in the
Soviet government.
Louis F. Glaser, chief of civil
affairs in the American military
government, said he rejected a
Russian argument that the ban
was unwarranted because Molo
tov’s remarks had been printed in
German newspapers.
“I told them," Glaser said, “that
the military government cannot
give its sanction to the posting of
an insult to the United States in
the American sector of the city."
Field Marshal Gets
Life Imprisonment
NUERNBERG, Germany, (/P)—
Field Marshal Wilhelm List was
sentenced yesterday to serve life
imprisonment as a war criminal.
He was convicted with seven other
generals charged with atrocities
, in the Balkans. Two generals were
acquitted.
The American war crimes court
ruled that some of the 63,000 kill
ings for which the group was held
responsible were plain murder.
It added that hostages may be
slain by an occuption force to
maintain order under internation
al law. This may be done, how
ever, only if the individuals se
lected for death bear some rela
tion to the crime committed
against the occupation forces, the
court ruled. In most cases there
was no such relation.
The court held that the right
to execute hostages has been rec
ognized by many nations as the
only way an occupying army can
protect itself against partisan at
tacks.
Nicaraugua is the largest of the
Central American republics.
‘Capt. Robt. Jones’
Arrested For
Impersonation
TOKYO, (A*)—A Japanese in a
U. S. army uniform — decorated
like a Christmas tree — stepped
grandly off a train yesterday.
He had startled fellow passen
gers with tales of weird flights in
a rocket ship at the Kanoya air
base. He was, he said with an ele
gant flourish, Capt. Robert Jones
—the army’s most daring test pi
lot.
He was dressed for the part.
Loops of gold braid adorned both
shoulders. Air Force service
patches blossomed on his sleeves.
Two rows of vari-colored ribbons
illuminated his chest. Upon his
jaunty cap were two circles of of
ficers’ braid and silver bars.
But a U. S. army chaplain, A. D.
Mann, lifted an eye brow and tele
phoned ahead. Awaiting the super
pilot’s triumphant arrival were
two frowning MP’s. *
They booked him for imperson
ating an officer.
The rocket pilot extraordinary
admitted then that he was Take
shi Takeshima — just an unem
ployed cook’s helper from the
Itami Air base, near Osaka.

Cause of World Ills
HAMILTON, N. Y. </P)—James
A. Farley blames the third and
fourth terms of the late President
Roosevelt for “many of the ills
which beset the world today.”

one worn by the weight of years
and cares of state, to the all im
oprtant conferences at Tehran and
Yalta.”
The former postmaster general
1 and national Democratic commit
tee chairman spoke at Colgate
| university.
