High military authorities yesterday refused to comment on the raid by German police in the Stuttgart camp. A spokesman for the Civil Affairs Division of the Army told the Jewish Telegraphic Agency that no report has been received as yet from the military authorities in the Stuttgart area, and that no such report has been requested.
A demand that summary action be taken against all U.S. Army personnel guilty of abuse of discretion in the raid, was voiced in a statement issued here by Representative Emanuel Celler of New York. He also urged that German police “with their Nazi methods” be summarily punished.
