Believe Eichmann Deserved His Fate

By DOUG ANDERSON United Press International | Early reaction to the execution of Adolf Eichmann indicated general belief today that the former ’ - -SS officer who played a leading role in the Nazi extermination of Jews deserved his fate. Authorities in Argentina, the! country from which Eichmann was ’ddnaped by Jewish agents jn 1960, anticipated a hostile reaction, but there were no immed-i iate reports of trouble. Anti-Semitic attacks on synagogues and other Jewish institu-] tions had been reported in half a dozen Argentine cities in the past week, and police posted special guards at the Israeli Embassy and other Jewish centers today. West Germany received the news of the execution calmly. Government sources in Bonn said they were satisfied that Eichmann had had a fair trial and that his sentence was “just.” Individual Germans said “Good riddance!!” of “He had it coming.” - Eichmann’s widow, who is in West Germany, could not be reached for comment. A government spoke sman said, however, that she had not asked President Heinrich Luebke to intervene in her husband’s behalf. 'Die hanged man’s three sons. Who live in Argentina, maintained to the end that their father was merely a cog in the Nazi machine Whose only offense was obedience to orders. Recent polls in West Germany« Indicated that nearly two-thirds of its people believe Eichmann Should be punished for his offenses 34 per cent that he should be hanged and 29 per cent that . heshould be imprisoned for life. ; Adams County Youth Injured Wednesday A Berne area youth was injured Wednesday night when a car in which he was riding veered off Elm Grove Rd. at a sharp curve east of Bluffton, sheered off a utility pole and was demolished about 11:35 p.m. Duane Sprunger. 19, of Berne Route 1 was treated at the Clinic 1 Hospital for multiple abrasions a-d. cuts reouirin’ stit<-hes on the right - arm, righ side of th? necx and ; shoulder.

Historic Showboat Is Gutted By Fire ST.LOUIS (UPI) — An early morning blaze burned through the blackness on the Mississippi River at St. Louis and gutted the historic showboat “Goldenrod.” The only apparent victim was a Iti-y ear-old dog “that belonged to the river” and was called Fhiffie. Captain-owner J.W. Menke, 81, his brother Charles, and a woman from Olathe, Kan. — Blanche Forbes, who has been with the Menkes for 25 years—-all made it to safety from their second floor sleeping quarters. The four-alarm blaze of as yet undetermined origin started about 3:30 a.m. A witness said both decks of th* sho wb oat were ablaze when he came on the scene. In the early morning light of dawn wit h the remains of the “Goldenrod”, still smoldering, Menke sat shoeless on a log mooring at the foot of Locust Street by his craft. “I’m still too dazed, I don’t know wljat I’m going to do,” he said in answer to a question as to whether he planned to rebuild the craft. “I was offered SBO,OOO for it (the Goldenrod) two weeks ago and didn’t take it,” he said. The boat was not insured. The "Goldenrod" was the final symbol of an era now passed from the American scene. Built in 1904 it was bought by the Mer.’kes in 1922, who plied the towns along the banks of the Mississippi, the Ohio and other rivers from as far north as Pittsburgh to the southern reaches of

Russia Hikes Food Prices

MOSCOW <UPI) — The Soviet government raised the prices of meat, butter and milk in Russia today because of shortages. It blamed the United States for the move. An announcement from the Communist party, which controls the government, set the increase on meat at an average 30 per cent, and 25 per cent on butter. The increase in miSc prices was not specified. The notice was published in this morning’s newspapers and broadcast over Moscow Radio. It sent housewives scurrying to stores to stock up on the scarce items. The price boosts are aimed at stimulating the lagging production on collective and state farms, the announcement said. Admits Failures Premier Nikita S. Khrushchev admitted at a party central committee meeting in March that farm output goals for 1961 were far from fulfilled. He cited widespread deficiencies in grain, meat and dairy products, and warned that the farm failures were endangering the seven-year development plan. Moscow naaio said this morning that more money is needed to stimulate farm production, and that state funds cannot be diverted from heavy industry and defense e xpendltures/ It blamed American-led "international reaction” for the need to maintain defense development. ‘"Die government considers it necess’ary to talk frankly about the difficulties which arise in supplying the cities with meat,” the party announcement said. "It is easy to see that the difficulties in question were created by our fast economic growth.” Incurs Losses The party said that in order to cut down the losses incurred by the state “while selling meat, meat products and butter to the population,” retail prices have been increased 31 per c ent on beef, 34 per cent on mutton, 19 per cent on pork, 31 per cent on sausage products, and 25 per cent on butter.

In explaining the action, Moscow Radio said the Soviet people eat and dress better every year. Nevertheless, the level of production of livestock is still Insufficient.” The broadcast said the Soviet government had spent many millions of rubles to improve agriculture, but added that "in order to interest the collective farms materially in increasing livestock produce, there must be an increase in government purchasing prices for meat and butter." Requires Funds "But this requires enormous funds,’ it’ said. “These funds cannot be sought at the expense of defense potentials or industry. “International reaction, with the U.S.A, in the lead, is now conducting a frenzied drive for armaments and is hatching plans for surprise nuclear and missile attacks on the U.S.S.R. and other socialist countries.” JEHOVAH’S WITNESSES KINGDOM HALL Corner Monroe and Ninth Sunday 3:00 p.m-: “Who Is Responsible For World Woes?” will be the subject of a Bible lecture to be given by Richard D.

Swimming Pool Is New Business Here Decatur’s newest business is a retail outlet for steel and vinyl swimming pools, the Campus pool, operated by Richard Frauhiger on South 13th street. Frauhiger has had one of the pools in his front yard since last fall, and it is available for anyone who would like to see one of the pools. His office is at his hofhe. New Concept The Campus pool is an entirely new comcept in swimming pool building. First, it can be structed in three or four days, much faster than older style pools. It has heavy gauge steel pool wall sections that are bolted together. There is no risk of cracked walls due to freezing and thawing, or shifting of earth, or hydraulic effect of sub-soil water. The walls and bottom are lined with a 20-gauge Vinyl liner that guarantees the pool against leaking, cracking or peeling. Color is impregnated into the vinyl; it never needs painting. The tough, velvet-smooth liner is extremely easy to keep clean, Frauhiger explained. Other Features Only the very best filter, chosen for its simple operation, is used. Anyone can operate it. Little maintance, lower operation cost, make the pools usable by homeowners. On the west coast, pools used for ten years are still like new. Pools come in three sizes standard or deluxe: 12 x 27 feet, 3-7 feet deep; 16 by 32 feet, 3-7 feet deep; 20 by 40 feet, 3-8 feet deep. — The pools cost less than a compact car, or a speedboat, and last 20 times as long, Frauhiger stated. They are easy to budget, and increase in value. Fender Skirts Are Stolen From Auto Roger Longetoberger, route 6, Decatur, reported to the city police Thursday afternoon that a pair of fender skirts were stolen from his car while parked at the Villa Lanes, either Monday night or early Tuesday morning this week.
