who edited a Nazi magazine
in the Soviet Union during
World War II and who disap-
peared before his U.S. depor-
tation hearing, has surfaced
in Montreal and has asked for
Canadian refugee status.
Vladimir Sokolov, 74, edited
and wrote for Rech, a
Russian-language Nazi news-
paper published in his native
Orel, Russia, during 1942 and
1943.
Sokolov wrote under the
name V.I. Samarin, which
was his father's listed last
name.
However, Sokolov lived and
worked in the United States
under the name Vladimir
Sokolov, his wife's last name,
which he used upon entering
the United States in 1951.
At that time, he failed to
reveal his wartime activities.
Sokolov — as Samarin —
was decorated by the German
Army for his writings. He
retreated with the Germans
when the Russian army re-
captured Orel.
While living in Milford,
Conn., Sokolov was a member
of Yale's department of Slavic
languages from 1959 to 1976.
The Yale Alumni Journal
wrote that he "chose to resign
and seek early retirement."
Sokolov was stripped of his
U.S. citizenship in 1986 after
a Yale librarian discovered an
article in
Sovietische
Heimland, Yiddish-language
monthly published in
Moscow.
The Canadian Jewish Con-
gress is attempting to in-
tervene in the case. "Canada
must not be used as a safe
haven for Nazi collaborators
fleeing United States justice,"
said CJC National Executive
Director Jack Silverstone.
Sokolov was the first of
about 25 alleged Nazi col-
laborators to face civil pro-
ceedings brought by OSI,
which was formed in 1979 to
track down Nazi war crimi-
nals living in the United
States.
Schwartz Elected
To AZF Board
New York — Simon
Schwartz, the national presi-
dent of MERCAZ, the Zionist
organization of the Conser-
vative movement, was recent-
ly elected president of the
American Zionist Federation.
The immediate past
treasurer of the AZF,
Schwartz, a resident of Ibms
River, N.J., was president of
United Synagogue.
