New York – Accuses Fellow – Immigrant as Nazi – Albertas Bauras (center), a Lithuanian, watches as an immigration inspector examines baggage of Merman (cq) Borenkraut (left), a Polish Jew, after their ship, the Marine Falcon docked here today. Borenkraut, a former inmate of a Nazi concentration camp, accused Bauras of being “a storm trooper guard” who “worked in the concentration camp office.” Both men and their families were sent to Ellis Island where immigration officials said Bauras will undergo “further screening” as a result of Borenkraut’s statements.
