ILLEGAL IMMIGRANT TRAFFIC RESUMED
Rec. 8 p.m. LONDON, Sept. 4. Two more ships believed to be engaged in the illegal Jewish immigration traffic have entered the Mediterranean, says Reuter. They are the Northland, which left Bayonne after fitting out with bunks on August 28, and is now steaming along the North African coast under observation, and the Paducah, which left Bayonne on August 5 and arrived at Varna, Bulgaria, on August 22. The movements of the ships suggest that attempts may be made to run Jews from South Eastern Europe British intelligence officers are seeking leaders of a Jewish terrorist movement known to be operating in the British zone of Germany, says Reuter s Hamburg correspondent. Four Jewish displaced persons, who are alleged to have been concerned in a plot to blow up a British train on the outskirts of Hanover on June 26 appeared before a British court. The prosecution links their activities with Palestine organisations.
