Colombo, January 14../
The six-day Commonwealth conference hora pro- duced a remarkable identification of attitudo towards the problem of Indo-China in a debate which was said to have marked the high point of give and taka between Ministers with differ-

It was not expected that Mr. Malcolm MacDonald's favourable first-hand report—as British High Commissioner in South East Asia—about Bao Dai would do much to bridge the gap botwoon the Indian view and a growing trend towards recognition led by Britain.

Anti-Jewish feeling in Germany
New York. January 14. Harry Uzdenstein, former ad- viser on Jewish affairs to the United States occupation au- Thurities in Germany and the American- Austria, told Jewish Committee's New York Chapter today that the dema cratic forces in Germany will have to work as long and hard to eradicate anti-Semitism from the Germans as the Nazi did to instill it.
He proposed a four-point pro- grammer for Germany's democra- tisation which he declared "is in- dispensable to that country's pur- Helpation in the union of the De- neralle West."
