In addition to complicity in
the bombing of the Soviet Lega-
tion—the incident that the
Kremlin used as pretext for
severance of relations with Isra-
el—individual defendants • were
also accused by the police of
responsibility for the bombing
of the Czechoslovak Legation six
months ago, the recent at- .
tempted boinbing of the Minis-
try of Education, the attacks on
book stores selling Russian' liter-
ature and other crimes.
Attorney General Haim Cr)-
hen said that the organization
was not .connected with either
foreign or domestic organiza-
tiOns. The gang financed its op-
erations, he said, by hold-ups
and other crimes.
A special issue of the Official
Gazette, authorized at an emer-
gency session of the Cabinet,
proclaimed the organization a
terrorist group and subject to
criminal action. Under the law
provisions so invoked, member-
ship in 'the organization can be
punished by imprisonment up to
20 yeears.
While some of the defendants
were arraigned in Magistrate
Court for preliminary hearing,
five were held for appearance
in a military court to answer
charges of plotting against the
Security of the State.

"Bully" Gets 4-Year Term
KOBLENZ, (JTA) — A four-
year sentence has been imposed
upon Josef Wollenweber, known
as the "bully of Theresienstadt,"
by a local court which found
him guilty of having on numer-
ous occasions beaten aged in-
mates of the Theresienstadt
concentration camp.
The prosecutor had asked life
imprisonment for proven mur-
der, but the court ruled that the
crime was "merely the inflicting
of serious bodily injury, with
death ensuing as a consequence."
Wollenweber, who was himself a
prisoner, held the rank of "Ob-
erkapo" and collaborated closely
with the SS.
Needs Rise, ,JDC's Report Reveals
Marked changes in the-type of
aid urgently needed by tens of
thousands of Jews in Europe,
Moslem countries and Israel re-
quire the stepping up of the
Joint Distribution Committee's
financial assistance and welfare
program overseas, the agency's
1952 annual report reveals.
As a result, JDC, which last
year spent $23,647,252, will this
year require a minimum of 425,-
491,000 on behalf of 185,000 men,
women and children in sonic
twenty countries overseas.
Moses A. Leavitt, JDC execu-
tive vice-chairman, declares that
"in 1952 it became clear that the
period - of mass emergency and
mass assistance was giving way
to new and varied individual
problems." .
The report, entitled "Year of
Changing Needs," also contains
accounts of JDC's work by Ed-
ward M. M. Warburg, JDC
chairman and general chair-
man of the United Jewish Ap-
peal; Dr. Joseph J. Schwartz,
