Germany to seek
extradition of Nazi
for war crimes
Bonn (JTA) — West Germany
will seek the extradition of Alois
Brunner, a former top aide of
Adolf Eichmann now living in
Damascus, to stand trial for send-
ing thousands of Jews to Au-
schwitz and other death camps.
A Cologne court has issued a
warrant for Brunner's arrest and
the Foreign Ministry will submit
an extradition request to the Sy-
rian authorities shortly, accord-
ing to a report in Der Spiegel.
Political observers here see little
chance however that the Syrians
will extradite Brunner, now 72,
who is running an apparently suc-
cessful business in Damascus.
German authorities initiated
proceedings against Brunner 20
years ago but abandoned them for
lack of evidence. The new warrant
is believed to be based on fresh
material and documents attesting
to Brunner's involvement in the
persecution of Jews in Nazi-
occupied France during World
War II.
He was chief of the notorious
Drancy internment camp near
Paris from which many French
Jews were deported to Auschwitz.
He also directed a special com-
mando unit assigned the mission
of arresting Jews in the French
town of Nizza and bringing them
to Drancy. The bill of particulars
drawn up to the Cologne court
says that Brunner paid large
sums to French Nazi collaborators
for each Jew they arrested.
Brunner was close to
Eichmann. The latter was said to
have been his partner in the
Damascus-based business, known
as the Khatar Offce, while he
lived in Argentina after the war.
Brunner is said to be heavily in-
volved in commerce in the Arab
world.

El Al profit
offset by deficit
Tel Aviv (JTA) — El Al, Israel's
national airline, registered a $1.6
million operating profit for the
past fiscal year. But this was
offset by a cumulative deficit of
$14.3 million, according to the
annual balance sheet published
this week.
The airline management said
El Al could operate at a profit but
is burdened by a total debt of $330
million on which high interest
must be paid. In addition, El Al
loses . between $20-$30 million a
year because of the ban on Sab-
bath flights imposed by the Likud
government, according to com-
pany officials.
