Britain Gives Funds

hailed by Jewish groups,
Britain has set aside $15.8
million for the prosecution of
alleged Nazi war criminals
living in the United
Kingdom.
At the same time, a major
hurdle to prosecution efforts
was cleared last week when
the House of Lords agreed to
drop its objections to the use
of videotaped testimony in
trials of suspected war
criminals.
The two developments
should theoretically speed
efforts to bring to justice 91
British residents suspected
of involvement in war
crimes. Those efforts have
been stymied over the years
by a number of legislative
and bureaucratic obstacles.
In Los Angeles, the Nazi-
hunting Simon Wiesenthal
Center welcomed the an-
nouncement of funding for
prosecution efforts.
"We applaud this signal
that the British government
is serious in fulfilling its
moral and legal obligation to
prosecute Nazi war
criminals who found • safe
haven in Britain," said
Rabbi Abraham Cooper, the
center's associate dean.
Last month, the center's
dean, Rabbi Marvin Hier,
wrote to Prime Minister
John Major urging his per-
sonal attention "to ensure
that justice delayed does not
become justice denied."
The success in Parliament
follows years of wrangling.
Last year in the House of
Lords, opponents of war
crimes trials forced through
an amendment to a Scottish
bill that would have
disallowed videotaped
testimony in Scottish courts.
The measure was raised
because a trial is expected to
get under way in Scotland.
The House of Commons
overturned the measure, but
through parliamentary pro-
cedure the measure was
returned to the Lords. Last
week, the opponents in the
House of Lords gave up their
fight against videotaped
evidence.
But some of the Lords
renewed criticism of the War
Crimes Act, which allows
trials of alleged Nazi
criminals in Britain.
Lady Saltoun of Abernethy
said such trials would be
"both obscene and costly.
"It is quite clear that
nothing this House does or
says will make the govern-
ment come to their senses."
One of the staunchest op-
ponents of the War Crimes
Act, Lord Campbell of
Alloway, said that to con-
tinue to oppose it would have
been "a futile and barren
gesture."
A spokesman for the All-
Party Parliamentary War
Crimes Group, comprising
Parliament members who
support the War Crimes Act,
said:, "We are very pleased to
hear that the Lords have at
last fallen into the line with
public opinion."
