NCJW Conference Calls for Youth Aid Blasts Right Wingers An 18 _point program for ac- tion to meet the steadily mount- ing needs of out-of-school, out-of- work youth was announced at the national board of directors meet- ing of the National Council of Jewish Women in New York this week. Mrs. Charles Hymes of Minne- apolis, president of the educa- tional and service organization, presented the proposals to NCJW leaders. "Employment needs of youth embody basic human wel- fare problems which have always been a matter of concern to the American Jewish community and to the National Council of Jewish Women," she said. The blueprint for action, ' en- titled "A Start For Youth," calls for guidance and vocational train- ing to meet contemporary needs. Citing the lack Of communication among schools, labor and indus- try on methods of combatting the problem, the Council proposals urge voluntary organizations to take the lead in bringing these groups together in cooperative efforts to assist youngsters in finding and holding jobs. The NCJW proposals are based on the results of an NCJW sur- vey conducted earlier this year in 58 major American cities, which found that school guidance programs, and vocational training are inadequate and outmoded in most communities. A threat to democracy posed by resurgent right - wing move- ments was also discussed. NCJW Executive Director Miss Hannah Stein reported that right- wing movements are "stifling dis- cussions of public issues and dis- torting the valid principles of Americanism."

Rehabilitation of Ex-Gestapos Demanded BONN, (JTA)--Informed po- litical sources asserted that re- habilitation of former members of the SS, Hitler's elite guard, was one of the demands of the Free Democratic party in the current coalition talks with Chancellor Konrad Adenauer's Christian Democratic Union. The demands, it was reported, include an amendment to a pen- sion law and a bill for general amnesty of Nazi crimes "with the exception of those perpe- trated for personal, deliberate and individual criminal mo- tives." A draft for such a bill, offered by Free Democratic deputy Ernst Achenbach, has been circulated among Bunde- stag deputies for the past two years. Otto Eisenmann, another Free Democratic deputy, told a meet- ing of the HIAG, the SS aid or- ganization, in Rendsburg Sun- day that it was "about time" that former members of the reg- ular SS were fully rehabilitated.

According to William Graham Cole, president of the college, all sororities and fraternities on the campus have been notified of resolutions adopted by the board of trustees disapproving national control over local chap- ter selection of members. The college, he said, is opposed to discrimination against potential members on the grounds of race or color. The five sororities are Alpha Delta Pi, Alpha Phi, Alpha Ki Delta, Chi Omega and Gamma Phi Beta. Officers of the five sororities said they would meet this week to decide on their next steps.

The appeals court found that Bunke had acted on the basis of a Hitler order at the end of 1943 to kill captured re- sistance fighters "in secret." The court ruled that at that time the shooting of partisans was not considered a violation of international law and that therefore Hitler's order, and its execution, could be considered only an act of homicide. The court further ruled that the statute of limitation was exec- tive in homicide cases, rejecting the prosecution's formal inter- ruption of the 15-year limita- tions period in April of last year. Dr. Bauer said the decision "may become a precedent in numerous other cases pending which last year we took the pre- caution of registering before the statute of limitations on homi- cide charges went into effect."
