Deitch DETROIT MONUMENT WORKS Yitzhak Shimkin Hagana Veteran TEL AVIV (JTA) — Yitzhak Shimkin, a Hagana veteran who planned and almost car- ried out an attempt to as- sassinate Hitler in 1939, died at his home in Haifa Feb. 23 at age 72. Mr. Shimkin was born near Odessa in 1905 and settled in Palestine in 1921 where he studied at the Herzliya Gymnasium and joined the Hagana. Later he studied electri- cal engineering in Europe and became a manufac- turer of electrical appliances in Palestine, many of which he in- vented and patented. In 1938, he saw films of Hitler's triumphant entry into Vienna after the Anschluss. After the Munich pact, he predicted that the Nazis would soon take over all of Czechos- lovakia and presented a plan to the Hagana com- mand to assassinate Hi- tler when he entered Prague. The plan was rejected but Mr. Shimkin decided to attempt it alone. In 1939 he went to Europe by way of Beirut with two hand grenades concealed in a pillow. He was in Prague when Hitler entered the city, but had to abandon his plan at the last minute because Hitler rode in a closed car. Mr. Shimkin was awarded the anti-Nazi fighters ,medal by Israel. 14441 W: 11 Mile Rd. Gardner, 1:ietw.
