A deputy
of the Social Democratic
Party (SPD) asked the gov-
ernment in the Bundestag on
Monday to "put mercy be-
fore justice" and free Ru-
dolph Hess.
The appeal by Dr. Friede-
rich Beermann was the latest
in a growing movement to
have the one-time No. 2 Nazi
released from Spandau prison
in West Berlin.
Beerman noted that Hess,
the last surviving member of
the Nazis' hierarchy still in
jail, has been imprisoned for
more than 30 years. He is 79.
