JEWISH REFUGEES
ILL START ANEW
IN FAR AUSTRALIA
150 From Germany Embark
at Vancouver Escaped
Nazi Terror But Fear for
Relatives Left Behind
VANCOUVER, Nov. 94. (AP) The
royal mall steamship Aoracgl salted
for the Antipodes today, carrying 100
German Jews from their old homes
In Germany to a new land of pro
mise Australia.
The refugeea posed willingly for
photographs, but declined to give
their names.
"We have got away from the terror
f Germany, but we fear for our
friends and relatives left behind,"
me spokesman for the group told
interviewers.
Most of the group from babec la
arma to white-haired grandfathers
and grandmothers smiled broadly
as they were welcomed almost bois
terously by members of Vancouver's
Jewleh colony.
Some Tears
But there were occasional tears at
the welcome, too.
"You look well, but how much you
have lost," one Vancouver woman
said quietly to a mother whose child
clung tightly to a frayed black skirt.
A single tear rolled down the
mother's pale cheek as she nodded
sadly In silence. , .
In Australia the refugees will be
reunited with other members of their
families who are permanent residents
of the commonwealth.
"Australia has agreed to accept one
blood -relation of each of her own
Jews," an elderly lawyer said.
. Most of the men In the party were
professional men, doctors, lawyers,
mechanics.
Ilave Little Money
' "But we don't know what we'll do
In our new land," another man said.
"Some of us may find work In our
professions, though It seems likely
now most will have to start new
farms.
"We couldn't bring much money
out of Oermany. We'll Just take
what comes along to earn a living."
Spotted through the group which
stepped from this morning's Cana
dian Pacific railway train from Mon
treal where their liner, the Duchess
of Bedford, docked lest week, were
occasional men and women from
non-professional walks of life.
One man was a baker from a email
village near Berlin. On his wife's
shoulder was their eight-months-old
bnby, laughing morrlty at the atten
tion she attracted.
On the baker's back were two pa
per sacks, one containing packages
of food, another rolled-up clothing.
"It's nil we have besides a few dol
lars," the man said, "but we're not
worried. We'll find something to do
and our friends In Australia won't
. let us starve."
He smiled wanly. "Even If we do,
It won't be much worse."
.Klndnrss Appreciated
A dexk-eyed young woman ,
Vienna music teacher, put In words
the feelings she said all members of
the party felt:
. "We do not know how to nay how
much we appreciate the kindness
that has been shown us since we left
Oermany.
"It Is a great sense of relief and
freedom to find ourselves among
friends we go to make a new life,
to start all over again in a land we
do not know."
Many spoke English, but a few
knew only Oerman. One elderly man
sat In the railway depot with his
white-haired wife.
Children of the party scurried
around them, several girls with
braided balr down their small backs,
one boy wearing a Scottish tartan
scarf around his neck, happy In ap
parent Ignorance of the troubles of
their respective parents.
. The man reached out to pat his
wife's arm as tears began to stream
down her face.
"We are going to a new land and
we are alone," he said through sn
Interpreter. "We know no English to
help us."

TO STEM' REFUGEE
TIDE FROM EUROPE
SYDNEY. Australia (UP) The Aus
tralian government Is taking meas
ures to prevent entrance of large
numbers of refugees from Europe
Into the country.
Government officials state that
thousands of refugees. In defiance of
the Immigration laws, are seeking to
book passages on vessels visiting Aus
tralia in the hope that they will be
permitted to settle In the country
without obtaining a landing perml..
New instructions to federal officials
In Australia and In London will re
quire persons with return tickets wno
are suspected of having Intentions to
settle In Australia to obtain. In addi
tion, landing permits. Cases where
travelers with tourist tickets who
have obtained them with the ac
knowledged p urpose of trying , on
arrival here, to remain In Australia,
are before the department of Interior.
Although most of the refugees
arriving and seeking to book passage!
are Jews, the government's move was
not made on racial or religious
grounds, James McEwnn. minister for
the interior, explained. He said thai
in the operation of the system regu
lating the admission of white aliens,
the government did not discriminate
as to nationality, race, or religion,
but considered every application on
Its merits. .
Nevertheless, evidence of the strict
er control of Jewish Immigration Is
seen In a warning sent to all shipping
companies In the commonwealth by
the department of the Interior.
