UP Nazi Punishment Plan Is

wl RR la -t a

‘Based on 10-Year U. S. Stay

| By CHARLES ARNOT United Press Staff Correspondent BERLIN, March 5-—The U: 8. military government today turned | ov® to the Germans the task of deNazifying te American occupation gone under a rigid new penal code expected to affect 4,000,000 of the 16,000,000 Germans in the area. Lt. Gen. Lucius D. Clay, U. 8. deputy commander in Europe, announced that the military government was assigning to responsible Germans the job of finding and punishing the Nazis still at large in the American ong. The German authorities, Clay] said, are being armed with a new, legal code, ‘written by the Germans and approved - by the Americans, designed for the “liberation from National Socialism and militarism” of the civillan residents of south Germany. > Occupation Plans In announcing the new move, Clay indicated the United States might be planning for at least 10

many. During a press conference, Gen. Clay explained that the new German de-Nazification law provides sentences as long as 10 years for major offenders. : A correspondent asked “Is this the first. definite commitment that the United States will stay fn Germany at least 10 years to see that these 'sentences are carried out?” “If the military government can commit the United States—yes,” Gen, Clay replied. Seek Industrialists A 25-page German written and Gefman enforced law for “liberation from National Socialism and

| militarism” was established to pun-

ih scores of German industrialists and financiers who were not indicted as war criminals but without whom Hitler would have teen pow= erless to wage war, The law was scheduled to be signed at Munich today by the minister presidents of three Ameri-can-occupied counties who submitted the plan for military government approval and who will be

{ responsible for its. enforcement.

Gen. Clay predicted the new law eventually would affect 25 per cent of the 16,000,000 Germans in the United States zone and would result

in a half million trials and thou-|

sands of appeals, The law covers all of American occupied Germany except Berlin and Bremen. The law requires registration of all Germans over 18 years in the American: zone and the grouping of registrants into five categories. The categories are: Major of-

Stassen Urges Labor Peace Act, Younger

By LYLE C. WILSON United Press Staff Correspondent WASHINGTON, March 5 (U. P.). ~Former Governor Harold E. Stassen today called on Republicans to support a national labor peace act substantially similar to the administration proposal now pending in congress, —- : Mr, Stassen accompanied his suggestion with a plug for néw and younger blood in party councils. He is 38 years old, the youngest of the top contenders for the 1948 Republican presidential nomination. Governor Thomas E. Dewey, the 1944 G, O. P, presidential nominee, is 43.' g Ages. of the other Republican possibilities are: ' Gov. John W, Bricker of Ohio, 53; Senator Ar-| thur H. Vandenberg, Mich, 61; Senator Robert A. Taft, Ohio, 56. Mr. Stassen outlined his ideas in an American magazine article. His] labor plan follows the pattern of legislation enacted in Minnesota when Mr. Stassen was governor in 1939.

He said it had substantially re-

“Its general principles of orderly conciliation, ‘mediation, fact-find-ing and a cooling-off period,” Mr. Stassen wrote, “would be valuable on a national scale.” Mr. Stassen said national labor legislation should insure full in-
