Jews in Tripoli rejoice as British let down bars
Tripoli, Libya (UP) – (Jan. 24, delayed)
The happiest people in Tripoli are the thousands of Jews who had been confined for many months in a ramshackle ghetto surrounded by barbed wire.
The Jews are no longer prisoners. When the triumphant British 8th Army marched into Tripoli, they were released and today they were mingling with Italians and Arabs just as they did before the war.
