THE DETROIT FREE PRESS, September 9, 1947
* "Exodus 1947" Jewish refugees relocated to Germany
* German V-2 rockets testing - Operation Sandy & Pushover
* Aircraft Carrier USS Midway - 1st such test
The front page has a historic report regarding the arrival of the Jewish refuges from the Exodus 1947 vessel, which had been captured by the British outside of Palestine. In a tragic twist of fate, the displaced refugees were relocated to Germany. The one column heading reads: "British Quell Exodus Refugees" with subhead. Related photo on the back page.
wikipedia notes: "The treatment of the refugees at the camps caused an international outcry after it was claimed that the conditions could be likened to German concentration camps."
The front page also has a two column heading: "Huge V-2 Rocket Fired From Carrier" with lead-in: "New Era Of Naval Warfare" (see images)
Complete with 26 pages, light toning, some margin wear, generally good.
