tee revealed that Josef Trisch-
ler, leader of the 28 deputies
in the West German Bundestag
opposing parliamentary ratifica-
tion of the West German-Israel
restitution agreement for pay-

several thousand Jews during

Julius t7 Ethel Roie r nberg, condemned to die for a crime they deny, tried in an at-
mosphere of political hysteria, left to their fate by a hostile press and.a fearful America,.
still have faith. The evidence which convicted the Rosenbergs was not substantial:
The prosecution's chief witnesses were admitted criminal agents, David
and Ruth Creenglass.
• Of 118 government • witnesses originally scheduled to be called, only 20
were produced.
• The "Atomic secrets" alleged to have been betrayed by the Rosenbergs
"made little sense," according to Time Magazine, who pointed out "the
general principle of an atom bomb has been • no secret."
• The only tangible evidence produced at the trial was (1) a Spanish War
Relief. Collection Can found in the Rosenberg Home; and (2) a petition
circulated by Mrs. Ethel Rosenberg on behalf of a successful Communist :
candidate for New York City Councilman. These pieces of evidence do
NOT indicate "Espionage."

Feature: • The life story of

MESSAGE OF ISRAEL
Time: 10 a.m., Sunday, Nov.

Station: WXYZ.
Feature s: "Where Do You
Live?" (Part II) will be dis-
cussed by Dr. Louis L. Mann,
rabbi of Chicago's Sinai Con-
gregation.
"I love my country. I love the principles of equality and brotherhood which
are the foundation of American principles—and the truth I love dearly above all.
"In all my actions and decisions, I am guided by our Holy Torah and by our
Prophets. .
"I, an Orthodox Rabbi, am firmly convinced that Ethel & Julius Rosenberg
• d Morton Sobell, charged with espionage (the Rosenbergs were sentenced to
an
death and Sobell to 30 years imprisonment) are entitled to a hearing in the
Supreme Court of the United States.
"As a devout Jew, I revere our country's laws, which carry out the humane
principles enunciated in the Torah, and I am reminded that the Declaration of
Independence is of one piece with our leader Moses exhortation: "Proclaim free-
dom throughout the land." Therefore, it is inconceivable to me that in our
country a death sentence should be so lightly given, as was the case in the
Rosenberg Trial.
"I consider it my profound duty to address myself to friends and foes, to
all, be they Jews or Non-Jews, irrespective of institutional affiliation, or political
persuasion, to participate in the work of securing justice for the Rosenbergs and
Sobell.
"Once this is achieved, all truth-loving people will have secured a great
triumph, and the children of the Rosenbergs and Sobell will be reunited with
their parents." —RABBI MEYER SHARFF
DON'T LET THEM DIE Write or Wire President Truman, urging him to set
aside the death sentence and to consent to a new trial.
Send urgently-needed funds to help us let America learn more about the
Rosenbergs. Your help can save their lives!
