ResourceBundle.getBundle() throws MissingResourceException in JSP

When I try to get a ResourceBundle from a JSP, I get a MissingResourceException.
But if I do it in a Bean called from the JSP, it works.  It also works from a
servlet.  I have the properties file in the WEB-INF\classes directory.  Anyone
know why?  I think it has something to do with the ClassLoader.  I'm using the
20000327 build of Tomcat

Here is the JSP file:

<%@ page language="java" %>
<%@ page import="java.util.*" %>

<HTML>
<HEAD>
<TITLE>
Test
</TITLE>
</HEAD>

<%
   try
   {
      out.println("<p>Try to get ResourceBundle from
ResourceBundle.getBundle()");

      ResourceBundle rb = ResourceBundle.getBundle("LocalStrings");
      out.println("<p>Success: " + rb.getString("helloworld.title"));
   }
   catch (MissingResourceException e)
   {
      out.println("<p>Failed: " + e);
   }

   try
   {
      out.println("<p>Try to get ResourceBundle from Bean");

      ResourceBundle rb = new RB("LocalStrings").rb;
      out.println("<p>Success: " + rb.getString("helloworld.title"));
   }
   catch (MissingResourceException e)
   {
      out.println("<p>Failed: " + e);
   }
%>


Here is the Bean:

public class RB
{
   public java.util.ResourceBundle rb;

   public RB(String name)
   {
      rb = java.util.ResourceBundle.getBundle(name);
   }
}
