David Colin, correspondent of the Jewish Telegraphic Agency in Rome, who was interned together with other American newspapermen in Italy after the Axis declaration of war against the United States, arrived here today on the Swedish steamer Drottningholm bringing a first-hand account of the situation of the Jews in Italy and in Axis-occupied Yugoslavia and Greece.
Mr. Colin, who was one of the American journalists exchanged for Axis diplomats and correspondents in this country, stated that the terror to which Jews are subjected in the Nazi puppet-state of Croatia can hardly be imagined. In Italy, he asserted, the large majority of the population hate the Nazis. His detailed account of the treatment of Jews in Italy and in the occupied Balkan countries will be published in the JTA Bulletin tomorrow.
