Nazi VIP Lives in California
NEW YORK (JTA) — The
former minister of justice of
the Nazi-controlled puppet
state of Croatia during World
War II, Andrija Artukovic,
is alive and living freely in
Surfside, Calif.
According to a secret file,
under lock and key at the
Los Angeles office of the
Immigration and Naturaliza-
tion Service (INS), Artuko-
vic entered the United States
under an assumed name in
July 1948, in flight to avoid
the Nuremberg War Trials.
This disclosure is reported
in the December issue of
Reader's Digest.
Witnesses and war crimes
investigators, relates Nathan
M. Adams in "Our Mounting
Wave of Illegal Immigrants,"
claim that he was "instru-
mental in the systematic
massacre of nearly 1,000,000
Jews and Serbians." A war-
time U.S. intelligence chief
in, the Balkans section fur-
ther swears that Artukovic
also approved orders that
sent dozens of captured
American pilots to their
deaths.
Yet for years he managed
to avoid deportation by a
steady barrage of legal ap-
peals to Congress, which took
the form of so-called private
bills introduced in his behalf
by the late James R. Utt
(R., Calif).
In 1959, a court-appointed
U.S.. commissioner held that
the crimes charged against
Artukovic were "political"
in nature. Accordingly, INS
found that he was not extra-
ditable to his native Yugo-
slavia, because he would be
subject there to "persecu-
tion," Adams reported.
In Bonn, former SS Fuehr-
er Georg Michalsen, 67, and
Otto Hantke, 65, went on trial
in Hamburg for the murder
of thousands of Jews during
the liquidation of the Warsaw
Ghetto in 1942-43. They are
also accused of sending 300,-
000 Jews to their deaths in
Treblinka. Michalsen be-
longed to the staff of SS
Gruppenfueherer Globocznik,
the "Hangman of Lublin."

Monday, and four principal
votes regarding the measure
will take place probably on
the following day.
The first of the votes prob-
ably will be on an amend-
ment to Title Four by Rep.
Charles A. Vanik (D. Ohio),
who will move for a ban on
credits as well as MFN to
the Soviet Union and other
countries similarly affected.
The Soviet Union is under-
stood to be more anxious for
the , credits than for lowered
tariffs on its exports to the
United States. The second
vote will be on Title Four
itself. After a vote on a re-
commital motion regardless
of the result of the Title Four
vote, the House will consider
the bill as a whole.
At present, 289 of the 435
representatives have spon-
sored the Mills-Vanik legis-
lation. Nevertheless, a- "hard
nose count" of the sponsors
is being undertaken by a bi-
partisan group to assure ma-
jorities for Mills-Vanik on
any legislative matter that
might arise in the course of
the debate.

members of the Dutch par-
liament, urged Western
European countries Tuesday
to admit and grant citizen-
ship to large numbers of
Palestinian Arab refugees as
a contribution to peace ef-
forts in the Middle East.
At the same time, the edi-
tors of the pro-Arab journal
"Palestina Bulletin," came
out in support of a proposal
to grant Dutch citizenship to
250,000 Russian Jews as an
alternative to their migration
to Israel.
The proposal to admit Pal-
estinian refugees emerged
during a foreign policy de-
bate in Parliament. It was
supported by spokesmen for
the Roman Catholic, political
Radical and "Democrats 66"
parties, who said the Nether-
lands should admit its share
of refugees.
The editors of "Palestina
Bulletin" have sent circulars

purpose: satisfy Jewish emi-

mass imigration of Russian
Jews to Israel.
The advocates of the plan
also observed that it would
strengthen the small Dutch
Jewish community which
totals no more than 20,000.

WASHINGTON (JTA) —
The House of Representatives
is now definitely scheduled
to decide on either the fate
of the trade reform bill and
the Mills-Vanik legislation
related to Soviet emigration
policy.
In an abrupt reversal
brought about by pressures
from America's chief trading
partners in Europe and Ja-
pan, President Nixon asked
House Speaker Carl Albert
(D. Okla.) Monday to obtain
a vote in the House before
its Christmas recess, and the
speaker promptly set the
dates for the debate and the
vote.
On two previous occasions
since Oct. 18, when the vote
originally was scheduled,
President Nixon had person-
ally asked the speaker and
other House leaders to delay
calling the bill to the floor
out of consideraion for Soviet
cooperation in the Middle
East crisis.
The administration was rep-
resented Tuesday as continu-
ing to be strongly in favor of

treatment and U.S. govern.

Union, to which President
Nixon had committed himself

agreement announced 14
months ago.

tion now feels that the best it
can do to revive authorization
