The Jewish refugees at the Landsberg camp believe that the bodies of the two Jewish guards who disappeared mysteriously from their posts at a kibbutz of 40 persons in Dissen, a Landsberg suburb, have been thrown into nearby Tegern Lake by German Kidnappers.

A correspondent of the Jewish Telegraphic Agency who returned from Diesen today reported that all telephone and electric wires were cut at the Diesan camp on the night of April 28 when the two guards disappeared. Twenty-four former members of the Nazi party are under observation.
