Refugees from

Every day troops arrived who had not washed for a month. Some of their vehicles were faded and dirty. Not only was this fellow a welcome quartermaster, but working for him were the best of all character witnesses — refugees from the concentration camps across the Pohsh border. He had brought them here, and while they didn t talk much, they worked hard for him and said nothing to refute his claim that he had picked them all and trained them so that, when they returned home, they would have skilled professions. 

Who was a Red and who not a Red any more Who a Jew and who not a Jew President Truman himself at times seemed confused on these matters. On our return from Europe, Pauley had made a report to the President recommending an international agreement under which each United Nation (with a few exceptions) would agree to take a quota of refugees from Europe, during the next few years, with those who had caused the suffering to foot the bill. 

As it turned out, the local chemical society in Montreal had scheduled Herman Mark as one of its monthly speakers, and there was a large turnout to hear him, both from industry and academe. Most of us had already heard about this "refugee" from war-torn Europe who had recently come to the New World, first to Canada and then to settle in Brooklyn, and we were very curious to meet him. 

One person assumed himself to be the reincarnation of Rasputin another, who was a refugee from the inner circles of the Hari Krishna cult and wore white robes and white rubber rain boots, was the reincarnation of Erwin Rommel. The burning-eyed leader of this whole group was Solo. He had been Ev s companion for four years. 

We re refugees from the tribal wars, and we need money," the other figure said. "What are you hiding there "... 

Nitric acid can be obtained in reasonably large amounts, by anyone who does not look like a refugee from the local insane asylum or drunk tank, at drug stores or chemical supply outlets. In most cases, a drug store will have to send out for it, and small chemical suppliers may have to also. Fuming nitric acid is less likely to be on the shelves than the standard concentrated nitric acid. 

Today, over 40 wars further ravage the Third World. Destitute refugees from war and economic prostration are beginning to swamp the economies of every industrial nation. 

When the German Government wanted to evacuate refugees from the Baltic States in 1939 in a hospital ship, they removed its markings and operated it as an ordinary liner. See Mossop 1947, p. 399. 

In the course of one particular synthesis, Woodward noticed that a thermally induced reaction produced only one of two possible products. He discussed the problem with Roald Hoffmann, a Jewish refugee from Poland currently at Harvard completing some work in theoretical chemistry (he gave up experimental chemistry after one experiment sprayed purple dye on the walls of a new laboratory). Together they came up with the Woodward-Hoffmann rules, which use the symmetry of frontier molecular orbitals to predict the outcome of certain photochemical and thermal reactions. Not only did the Woodward-Hoffmann rules explain a backlog of previously unexplained results, they suggested new reaction routes. This work con-...
