Austrian Ex-Nazi Gets Life Sentence

VIENNA, (JTA) — Two Aus-
trians who served as policemen
during the Nazi regime were
convicted of the mass murder
of Polish Jews and of having
mistreated and robbed their vic-
tims before killing them. Four
other policemen, tried at the
same time, were acquitted.
Leopold Mitas, the chief di-
fendant, was given a life sen-
tence, while Josef Poell, con-

sentenced to 20 years in prison.
The other four were acquitted
partly because of a lack of evi-
dence and partly because the
jury found that they had acted
"under orders."
A second trial of Austrian po-
licemen accused of similar
crimes is expected to start
