ceedings.

Schary, national chairman of the
League, at a ceremony in the
broadcasting firm's headquarters
at 24 E. 51 St., New York.
Capital Cities owns and operates
radio and television stations in
New York, New Jersey, Michigan,
Rhode Island, North Carolina, and
West Virginia. Under the terms
of its agreement with Israel, it
supplied coverage of the Eich-
mann trial on a non-profit basis
to television stations, networks,
and newsreels throughout the
world. The firm and Milton A.
Fruchtman, executive producer of
the project, won broadcasting's
Peabody Award in 1962 for per-
forming a public service in com-
piling "an enduring record of the
dangers and consequences of tyr-
anny and rule by terror:"

According to Frank M. Smith,
chairman of the board of Capi-
tal Cities, the value of the tapes
is about $5 00,00 0 "but are im-
possible to evaluate in terms of
their historic importance to re-
searchers now and in years to
come."

The League archives include
written transcripts of the Eich-
mann trial in both Hebrew and
English, a gift from the Israeli
government; records of all avail-
able information an the dispersion
of Nazi hierarchy after World War
II; vast research in the field of in-
ternational law on the genocide
issue; and the largest library of
anti-Semitica in America. At the
beginning of this year, the League
made an arrangement with the
Wiener Library in London—one
of the world's foremost reposi-
tories of data and decumentation
on European anti-Semitism — to
expand the ADL research library
on organized anti-Semitic activi-
ties throughout the free world.
The new acquisition is the only
visual record of the Eichmann
trial outside of archives in Israel.
Israel, with no television of its
own, granted permission to Capi-
tal Cities to tape the trial after
the company had met stringent
conditions: the project had to be
non-profit; coverage had to be
from beginning to end and a tape
and film record of the trial stored
in Israeli archives; a $100,000
bond had to be put up by the
broadcasting firm; and the judges
—not yet selected—had to have
authority to cancel the project if
they felt it would detract from the
dignity of the court.
"The result," Lowell Thomas
said, "was an unprecedented inter-
national television network that
brought the trial to 56 nations
with television systems, and to
dozens of other countries by
means of newsreels made from the
television tapes."

Fruchtman divulged that the
tapings were almost canceled
shortly before the trial began
when the camera installations
failed to meet the judges' ap-
proval because they were

"In one long night," he said,
"we installed camera booths in
the walls—constructed to look like
ventilation ducts, painted black on
the inside, covered with chicken
wire mesh also painted black, as
were the cameras. The operators
wore black clothing. When the
three judges and their assistants

morning, they not only failed to

For the first time science has found
a new healing substance with the as-
tonishing ability to shrink hemor-
rhoids and to relieve pain — without
surgery. In case after case, while
gently relieving pain, actual reduc-
tion (shrinkage) took place. Most
amazing of all — results were so thor-
ough that sufferers made astonishing
statements like "Piles have ceased to
be a problem!" The secret is a new
healing substance (Bio-Dyne®)— dis-
covery of a world-famous research
institute. This substance is now avail-
able in suppository or ointment form

called Preparation H®. At all drug
counters.
