Request for Newspaper Articles

I’ve found these articles on ancestry but don’t have access to actually read them, and they’re too blurry for AI to make out.

They’re on my great grandpa Albert Earl Schwab - I know one of the articles is in the crime section. He was based in Ironton, Ohio and these articles are form 1953 and 1962.

My grandma (his daughter) was raised by her grandparents and not him or her mother, but I never really knew why. I know he was married to my great grandma Berniece for a bit, and my grandma has a full sister, and we recently discovered she has other sisters through Albert we didn’t know about. Hoping someone can give me a screenshot or transcript of these articles, maybe for better insight as to why my grandma wasn’t raised by her parents! Thanks in advance!

Arabs Still Crossing Frontier To Get Hadassah Medical Aid (January 27, 1969 | © The New York Times)

The Israeli hospital has also treated nearly 50 Arab guerillas, most of them members of Al Fatah, in the many months of Arab commando activity since the war.

“They’re really a nuisance,” Dr. Kalmann Mann, the director of the hospital, said in a recent interview. “They end up in the best rooms because they come in with policemen to guard them and they need the extra space.

“That first week in June we were taking in Arab soldiers and some of our nurses began to object,” Dr. Mann said. “We had a little talk in my office and since then it has been all right.”

“I told them that we have to treat them, as individuals, not as the enemy, and I told them of my own experience in World War II treating German prisoners in Southhampton, England,” he added.

MOSLEM BROTHERHOOD (January 15, 1954 | © The New York Times)

The Brotherhood is an evil flower of the days when fascism was coming to bloom between the World Wars. Its appeal was at first to urban workers, students and lower-middle-class youth of the towns. Soon it penetrated the countryside, the army and–with great effect–the clergy, or mullahs. It was as a fanatically religious Islamic movement that it gained force, turning naturally toward nationalism, xenophobia, anti-feminism, anti-Westernism, even anti-Copt, for the Egyptian Copts are Christians.
