still lost in Europe

BIG comb-out of Germany is on for thousands of Allied children lost there. In the British Zone alone more than 30,000 are missing.

Phones are ringing, special slides are being shown in German cinemas, notices are appearing in a hundred different newspapers, 29 European radios are broadcasting special programmes..

At Wunstorf Child Search Headquarters, the two persons in command-an English and a Bol-. gian woman--told me this amazing story.

Chief cause of these gigantic losses of chil- dren was the Nazis' scheine for kidnapping from other countries in order to enrich their own child population..

DEATH MARK.

I heard that only this year one of the most important clues was found in Poland.

In a building which had been used by the Gernians were discovered documents giving the names of 50,000 Polish children together with the German names into which they were changed.

There were also details of each child's per- sonal features, its parentage, its character and its reactions to Germanisation.

Children, who did not pass the test or who were not old or strong enough to go into labour camps were marked for extermination.
