Declassified U.S. intelligence reports show two leading Swiss banks continued to do business with Nazis late into World War II, even after such dealings had been barred, the World Jewish Congress said yesterday. The disclosure of the half-century-old reports was made on the eve of hearings in Washington by Sen. Alfonse D'Amato's Banking Committee into how much wealth of Holocaust victims may be hidden in Swiss banks. Credit Suisse and the Union Bank of Switzerland handled about $600,000 for the Nazis from late September to late November 1944, the State Department said. Regulations barring such dealings were adopted by the Swiss Bankers Association in mid-September 1944, it said. The reports did not identify the money as assets taken from Jews, but "the Nazis were not putting in their personal pensions; what they were putting in were plundered goods," said World Jewish Congress spokesman Elan Steinberg. The plunder, Steinberg said, was "from the occupied territories of Europe, by and largebut not exclusivelyfrom the Jewish communities of Europe." He said the declassified information refuted Swiss denials of dealings with the Nazis."There's not even a suggestion that this is a comprehensive list of the two-month period for two banks. Quite the contrary, the implication is this is only the tip of the iceberg," Steinberg said. The State Department listed 16 transactions by Credit Suisse and 11 transactions by Union Bank of Switzerland in a confidential memo it sent to the U.S. Mission in Bern on Jan. 30, 1945. Steinberg said more material from hundreds of thousands of newly available World War II documents would be disclosed at the Banking Committee hearing today.Swiss banks last week offered to reopen their inquiry into the size of their holdings from Holocaust victims. They concluded last year that only 774 accounts, worth about $32 million, existed. But D'Amato (R-N.Y.) said yesterday that recently discovered documents show as much as $20 million in assets in a single institution. "Huge sums of wealth vanished and some if it may be sitting in Swiss banks today," he said in a statement.

The score of a new musical- comedy features familiar pop tunes performed by a cast of virtual unknowns - members of the paying audience. At "The Karaoke Show," an interactive production staged every Friday and Saturday night at The China Club, people from the audience are invited to take the stage and belt out their favorite karaoke songs. There's a method to this musical madness. The first act consists of actors loosely following a scripted spoof of William Shakespeare's "The Comedy of Errors." The convoluted farce about two pairs of separated-at-birth twins has been updated and set - where else? - in a Manhattan karaoke bar, with the cast performing well-worn pop songs made to fit the narrative. But in the last half of the show, wanna-be pop stars and revelers of all varieties are given the chance to get in touch with their inner American Idols. "It's a really great opportunity for people to get up on stage when you don't usually get the chance to," says Jeff Chew, a 26-year-old Web site developer from Manhattan. He sang real Idol Clay Aikens' "Invisible" at a recent show. While the audience-participation portion of the evening attracts its share of off-key crooners - who are always lustily cheered - it isn't all amateur hour at The China Club. A particularly polished rendition of Shania Twain's "That Don't Impress Much" at a recent show was performed by Dina Lynne Morishita, a seasoned stage actress who welcomes the chance to perform just for the fun of it. "It's really a good place to cut loose and have a good time," says Morishita, whose stage credits include starring roles in national tours of "Miss Saigon" and "Les Miserables." "I've been to the show three times, and the best part is you can have fun singing without the pressure of being in a real production," she adds. "If you mess up the words, it doesn't matter." "The whole concept connects to pop culture in a lot of different ways," says "Karaoke Show" co-creator Jordan Roth, who is also behind such productions as "The Rocky Horror Picture Show" on Broadway and the long-running Off-Broadway hit "The Donkey Show." "Karaoke is sort of a precursor to 'American Idol' and the notion that there is a rock star inside all of us," adds Roth. "All you need is a mic to unleash it."

LOS ANGELES - Around the time the Democrats opened their convention at the Staples Center downtown, Margarita Reyes and her husband, Carlos, were catching an afternoon sandwich inside the tiny shoe and clothing store they own near the intersection of Florence and Normandie Aves. The corner is an old story that politicians - both New Democrats and New Republicans - would like America to forget. It was at Florence and Normandie in April 1992 that a crowd of angry blacks gathered after hearing that a Simi Valley jury had acquitted the cops who were caught on videotape brutally beating Rodney King. What followed was one of the nation's worst riots of the 20th century. By the time it was over, the arson and looting had spread throughout this sprawling city, more than 50 people were dead and 12,000 had been arrested. And while the country saw it as a black riot, the fact is the biggest group of people arrested during those troubles was Hispanics, not blacks, most of them picked up for breaking curfew or looting. Back then, South Central Los Angeles was not only poor and beset by drugs and violence, but it was a neighborhood in transition. Blacks were moving out and being replaced by Mexican and Central American immigrants. Eight years later, that change is even more pronounced. Margarita Reyes, a Salvadoran immigrant, and her husband, who is from Guatemala, opened their store only three months ago. All along Florence, you see the change in the names of the businesses. Up the street is the Cuba/Mexico Night Club. There is Pancho's convenience store, and Rosa's Party Supplies, and Hilda's Hair Salon, and Club Las Hadas - all owned by Latinos. None was there before the riot. The same change can be seen all over Los Angeles, where Hispanics now make up 45% of the population. Paul Mauldin, a black man who has lived in the area a long time, was repairing an engine down the block at the Baby I'm Back Auto Care Shop. Mauldin is 47 now. He moved to Los Angeles from Tyler, Tex., in 1977. "All the blacks are moving to Riverside or San Bernardino," he said. "Nothing but Spanish moving in." Not much has changed since the riot, Mauldin said. Any improvement came from the people themselves, not because the city put any money into the neighborhood. "Still too much crime at night," he said. I asked him about the Democrats and the convention downtown. "I don't pay them no mind," he said. "Never voted in my life. Never heard one of them say something made me want to." Margarita Reyes became a citizen this year. Her husband still has permanent resident status. "It's my first chance to vote," she said. But she hadn't followed Vice President Gore or Gov. George W. Bush and didn't know what either of them stood for. Over at the Staples Center, the Democrats, the party of the working man, are raising as much money and can count almost as many millionaires among their delegates in net worth as the Republicans. But this is South Central, and in the neighborhoods like it across America, in places where people make less than $20,000 a year, barely two of 10 adults vote. These are the neighborhoods neither party has ever really cared about, except when they explode and spoil the show.
