Oberlaender Cleared
of Charges He Took
Part in Nazi Murders

BONN, (JTA)—Former Min-
ister for Refugees Theodor
Oberlaender has reportedly been
cleared by a special parliamen-
tary committee of the dominant
government party, the Christian
Democratic Union, of charges
that he was part of a Nazi team
that ordered the execution of
Polish and Jewish intellectuals
in 1941 at Lwow, which was
then part of Poland.
As a result, it is believed a
move undertaken months ago to
lift Dr. Oberlaender's parlia-
mentary immunity so that he
may be prosecuted for atrocities
will very likely be quashed
when Parliament reconvenes.
Dr. Oberlaender resigned
from the Adenauer Cabinet last
spring under fire of charges
that he had been a member of
the Nazi "Nightingale Battal-
ion" held responsible for mass
murder at Lwow in 1941. How-
ever, he is still a member of
the Bundestag, the lower house
of the West German Parlia-
ment.
According to the CDU prob-
ers, the murders at Lwow were
committed in part by the re-
treating Soviet Army and in
part by Ukrainians who were
then under the direction of
Russia's present Premier, Nikita
Khrushchev.
After the Russian army re-
treated under battering by Hit-
ler's forces, murders were corn-
mited in Lwow, the investigators
report, by Nazi Secret Service-
men whose "responsible leaders
were found guilty by the Nur-
emberg Military Tribunal and
put to death."

Hitlerite Crimes Exposed in Book About Eichmann

Of the several books an-
nounced as exposes of the Eich-
mann case, "The Case Against
Adolf Eichmann," edited by
Henry A. Zeiger, was the first

Signet paperback by New Amer-
ican Library of World Litera-
ture (501 Madison, N. Y. 22).

crime of Nazism. An extensive
bibliography refers to historical
records in which the Nazi out-

No 'Jewish Angle' in
S. African Problems

JOHANNESBURG, (JTA) ---
The current political controver-
sies in the Union of South Africa,
many of them connected with the
government's policy of apartheid,
have no "Jewish angle," the exec-
utive committee of the South
African Jewish Board of Deputies
reported at the Board's biennial
congress.
The Jewish community on
whole, stated the report,
taken no collective attitud
politically controversial
"Jews exercising their
rights as individual citize
cording to their personal
ions."
One controversial issue
which the committee has taken a
stand concerns the educational
field. Recently, the so - called
"conscience clause" has been
eliminated from application to
the new university for non-whites.
The clause protects the religious
freedom 'of teachers and students
in schools and universities.
According to the committee,
elimination of this clause "must
occasion concern, because re-
ligious freedom is indivisible."
On the other hand, the commit-
tee notes, the government has
assured the Jewish community
that this modification of the
"conscience clause" will not in-
volve a threat of discrimination
against Jews.
