summer, is already under-
way.
One strong argument that
has already been raised
against trying alleged war
crimes suspects is that the
prosecution would have to
rely heavily on evidence
provided by the Soviet
Union. "We should beware
of whatever the Soviet
Union has to say about
them," cautioned one senior
British columnist.
However, the victims of
the alleged offenses were
almost exclusively Jewish
and, ultimately, the debate
is likely to focus on the more
emotive issue of "Jewish
demands for vengeance."
Rabbi Marvin Hier, Dean
of the Simon Wiesenthal
Center, said the issue should
not be seen purely as a fight
between Jews and former
Nazis: "That would be side-
stepping the issue," he said.
"It would dishonor all those
who died."
Meanwhile, Greville
Janner, a prominent Jewish
legislator and a leading ad-
vocate of amending the law,
has already warned British
Jews to brace themselves for
a wave of anti-Semitism over
the issue.

10 Suspects
Held In Fire
Tel Aviv (JTA) — Ten
suspects have been detained
for questioning in connec-
t tion with the fire Sept. 19
that destroyed at least 2,500
acres of forest and under-
brush on the Cannel range,
south of Haifa.
There is no question that
arson was the cause, accor-
ding to police and fire offi-
cials, who linked it to the
Palestinian uprising. They
said the arsonists started the
fire simultaneously at five
different spots at about one-
mile intervals.
An anonymous caller
speaking in Arabic told
Israel Television's Arabic
service Tuesday night that
> the fire was the work of a
group called "Direct
Revenge."
Wardens of Hai Bar, the
Mount Carmel Animal
Sanctuary, said that while
many of the animals were
led to safety, scores died. The
animals include rare species
mentioned in the Bible that
are being bred to raise new
herds.
