Russia War Prisoners Return Volumes and German Recovery
The article notes Soviet Russia has repatriated about 10,000 German POWs since last September, with 3,000 to West Germany and over 2,000 to Communist East Germany, while still denying precise figures and criticizing Western claims. It contrasts this with West Germany's growing economy under OEEC, strong shipbuilding, and postwar recovery amid Allied occupation, suggesting the Soviet system faces tough competition from the West. It also reports local community notices about the John B. Webb Post auxiliary visits to Newton D. Baker Veterans Hospital and Optimist Club activities at the Francis Scott Key Hotel with upcoming events.
