German Cabinet Decision Not to Extend
War Crimes Statute Strongly Condemned
LONDON (JTA) — West Ger-
many's decision not to extend the
statute of limitations on Nazi war
crimes was strongly condemned
by Dr. Nahum Goldmann, presi-
dent of the World Jewish Con-
gress, in an address opening the
meeting of the Eiiropean executive
of the WJC here.
"The decision of the govern-
ment of the Federal German Re-
public," Dr. Goldmann said,
"means that large numbers of
Nazi criminals will go scott free
after expiration of the 20-year
time limit for prosecutions, next
May." He suggested that the West
German Government follow the
practice of Britain and the United
States where. he asserted, persons
charged with murder "are not pro-
tected by any statute of limita-
tions."
Turning to the problem of Ger-
man scientists employed by the
Egyptian armaments industry, Dr.
Goldmann " ep ore " that Ger-
many had so far failed to take
adequate steps to secure the recall
of German scientists and techni-
cians from Egypt. "These Nazis,"
he declared, "are not only a threat
to Israel but also to world peace."
Israel Bond Hanukah Festival;
Night in Israel will be held De-
cember 7, 8:30 p.m.. at the Labor
Zionist Institute. Ben Goldhoff is

tions far the celebration. Refresh-
ments will be served after the pro-

that this noble action will be ade-
quately completed by generosity - in
dealing with those thousands of
persons who have so far received
no compensation at all or have
only been partially compensated."

ticular, to those Jews who reached
the West after 1953 and who are
