Asks Koch Case Probe

.

Dr. Stephen S. Wise, president
of the World Jewish Congress,
appealed to Secretary of Defense
James V. Forrestal for an investi-
gation of the commutation of the
death sentence imposed by an
American military court against
Use Koch, convicted of the "most
inhuman offense against concen-
tration camp victims," to four
years imprisonment.
Dr. Wise expressed the alarm
of the World Jewish Congress
that the Ilse Koch case further -
confirms the trend in the U. S.
Zone of Germany toward discon-
tinuing any vigorous campaign
against Nazi war criminals Dr.
Wise pointed to such apparent
policies as reducing the number
of war crimes trials to a mini-
mum, discontinuing new trials;
reducing sentences imposed by
courts, and restricting action to
isolated cases.
"Such trends," said Dr. Wise,
"favor those who murdered and
exterminated millions of Jews
and other peoples and lend the
greatest encouragement to the
recrudescence and revival of the
forces of darkness in Germany
and render virtually impossible
the imperative tasks of democrat-
ization and denazification,"
