~ Topl.G. Farben Chiefs Branded as Worst Of War Criminals

. 24 Scientists and Industrialists Go on Trial a - Soon; Called Instigators of Conflict For 20 years Howard W. Ambruster has made a career of trying to warn the American people against international cartels. As a chemical engineer, lecturer and author of “Treason’s Peace,” he has tried to focus public attention on how Germany's fabulous I G. Farben combiuve was duping and weakening the U. 8. In this dispatch he tells why 24 Farben leaders are to go on trial at Nuremberg (now scheduled for Aug. 1) as war criminals more dangerous than Hitler himself If he were still alive today.

By HOWARD WATSON AMBRUSTER NEW YORK, July 21.—The top-priority criminals in world war I were not the “half-mad Nazis and street-fighting thugs” who earned the hatred of every decent-thinking citizen, and many of whom already
