Life in Prison Asked
for Two Nazi Judges
NUREMBERG (JTA) — Life im-
prisonment at hard labor was de-
manded for two former Nazi judg-
es by the state prosecutor at a war
crimes trial here.
The defendants are Heinz Hugo
Hoffman and Karl Joseph Ferber
who, in 1942, sentenced a Jew,
Leo Katzenberger, to death for
alleged race defilement — having
relations with a non-Jewish Ger-
man woman.
They admitted, during their trial,
that they had decided to condemn
Katzenberger to death before his
hearing opened in 1942.
One of the defendants argued in
court here that there was nothing
wrong with this because of the "fi-
nal solution" of the Jewish prob-
lem that had already been decreed
by the Nazi government.
A juridical commission from
Czechoslovakia arrived in West
Germany to work with the Central
Office for the Prosecution of Nazi
War Criminals at Ludwigsburg.
The commission is the first from
Czechoslovakia to work with the
West German institution.
It will assist in the investigation
and clarification of Nazi war
crimes.
The first of four 76,000-dead-
weight-ton bulk carriers ordered
by Cargo Ships El Yam, Ltd. of
Haifa was launched at the yards of
the Furness Shipbuilding Co. The
new vessel will be christened Har
Addir. Cargo Ships El Yam is the
largest privately owned shipping
company in Israel.
Israel Saves Life
of Congo Ex-Chief
PARIS (ZINS) — Political cir-
cles confirm the report that Moise
Tshombe, former premier of the
Congo, will soon be released from
an Algerian jail after a year's im-
prisonment, following the high-
jacking of his plane which was
forced to fly to Algeria.
The French government inter-
vened for Tshombe with the Al-
gerian dictator, Col. Boumedienne,
and the Congo president, Gen. Mo-
butu, who wanted to execute
Tshombe. The Algerian dictator
promised to extradite Tshombe to
Mobuto, on condition that he break
relations with Israel.
At the first sign of acquiescence,
Mobutu was to recall the young
Congo officers from Israel where
they were training in. a parachu-
tist school and promise never again
to send his officers to be trained
in Israel.
Gen. Mobutu categorically re-
jected the Algerian dictator's de-
mand and ceased negotiating for
'Tshombe's extradition. Thus
Tshombe will soon be free to go
to Switzerland to live happily for-
ever after on the vast fortune he
had deposited there.
55 Organizations to Join
Times Square Memorial
NEW YORK—Fifty-five national
and local organizations have
joined with the Zionist Organiza-
tion of America to honor the 25th
anniversary of the Warsaw Ghetto
Uprising at an open air rally
12:30 p.m. April 25 in Times
Square. The day is known as
"Martyrs' and Heroes' Remem-
brance Day."
Abram Salomon, national ZOA
chairman for special events and
president of the Manhattan ZOA
Region, has been elected chairman
of the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising
anniversary committee, consisting
of all co-sponsoring organizations
which will pay tribute to the heroic
ghetto fighters and the Six Million.
In keeping with the tradition of
past years, Times Square will be
renamed Warsaw Ghetto Square
for the day.
Moscow Gives Figures
on the Russian Jews
PARIS (ZINS) — According to
Soviet sources, there are about
3,000,000 Jews living in the Soviet
Union, compared to 2,268,000 in
1959, and 2,468,000 in 1961.
Half a million Jews served in the
Russian armed forces in World
War II, of whom 169,000 received
medals for bravery, and 114 were
named "Heroes of the Soviet
Union."
The same authorities reveal that
during the Hitler occupation,
6,350,000 Jews perished: in Poland
—2,900,000; in the Soviet Union,
1,700,000; in Hungary — 425,000;
and 1,300,000 in the rest of Europe.
Close to 300,000 Polish Jews had
escaped to Soviet Russia, and re-
turned to Poland after the war. The
number of Jewish students in the
Soviet Union reached to 94,600 in
1966.
ernment struggled to overcome an
internal crisis over the issue of
electoral reform. Changes in the
electoral system, proposed by the
minister of the interior, Paul
Luecke, would have modified the
present procedures and elimin-
ated the proportional representa-
tion aspects of the system.
The NPD, which has been ob-
taining an average of 8 per
cent of the vote in the provincial
elections it has been contesting,
would, on that basis, be certain
of winning a number of seats in
the Bundestag, the lower house.
Without proportional representa-
tion, it would be extremely doubt-
ful if the party could muster a
plurality in any voting district to
give it a seat. Hence, Adolf von
Thadden, the NPD chairman,
would like to see general elections
held immediately under existing
law.
The Organization of Nazi Vic-
tims in West Berlin appealed to
the three commanders of the Al-
lied occupation forces in West
Berlin to outlaw the National
Democratic Party. The organiza-
tion protested that West German
politicians of all parties were
making light of the neo-Nazi
danger.
They said that the number of
neo-Nazis in Berlin was much high-
er than the NPD membership in-
dicated. According to the West
Berlin Senate, the NPD has some
400 members in West Berlin.
The National Democratic Party
is not a problem for the Jews but
for the Germans themselves, Dr.
Nahum Goldmann, president of the
World Jewish Congress, told a
Meeting of the American Section
of the Congress. He said there was
abslutely no comparison between
conditions in Germany and Europe
today and the conditions which
made it possible for an Adolf Hitler
to come to power.)
In London, a report by the West
German Ministry of Interior that
the neo-Nazi National Democratic
Party has lost support in compari:
son to its size in 1966, was ques-
tioned by the Times in a dispatch
from Bonn Wednesday.
According to the Times corre-
spondent, NPD membership re-
mains unchanged at 28,000, al-
though the party itself claims
37,000 members. About 35 per cent
of the members have a Nazi or ex-
treme right-wing background. Al-
though the Bonn ministry claims
that less than one-tenth of the West
German electorate is inclined to
support the NPD," a section of the
German population is ready once
again to follow romantic national-
ist concepts," the Times corre-
spondent said.
Hospital Gets Grant

PHILADELPHIA (JTA) — A
$200,000 federal grant has been
made to Moss Rehabilitation Hos-
pital, an affiliate of the Federa-
tion of Jewish Agencies, to con-

biomedical rehabilitation. Work un-
der the grant will be directed into
