Nuernberg War Trials Concluded

NUERNBERG. April 14 (UP) The Nuernberg war rrim is dials etitled today with the sentencing of 19 of Adolf Hitler's top aid s and advisers to prison terms ranging up to 25 years. An American tribunal nanded out the sentences after convicting the 19 Nazis of crimes running from the waging of Hitler's wars of aggression to tie slaughter of Jews to membership in criminal organizations. The heaviest sentence 25 years was imposed on I-t. Gen. Gottlog Berger, 52, one of tin highest officers in Hitler’s dreaded SS organization, for sending thousands of Jews to gas chambers, mistreating wai prisoners, participating in the use of slave labor and r.iembi : ship in the SS. Hans Heinrich Laniniers, 69 chief of Hitler’s Keichsehansellory and virtual vice-chancelloi of Germony, drew one of two 20 year sentences imposed. Lammers hail been found guilty of approving the slaying of allied airmen shot down over Germany, crimes against Jews, plundering Russia and other occupied countries, using slave labor and membership in criminal organizations. The court gave a seven year sentence to the best-known defendant, Baron Ernst von Weizsaecker, 69-year-old Nazi wartime ambassador to The Vatican and. before that, a state secretary in the German foreign office. The white-haired YVcizsaeckei had been convicted of planning aggressive war against Czechoslocakia and aiding in atrocities against Jews. The court held that he deported 6,000 French Jews to the Auschwitz death camp, where most of them were executed in gas chambers. Altogether, the court imposed one sentence of 25 years, two of 20 years, three of 15 years, two of 10 years, six of seven years, one of six years, two of five years, one of four years and one of three years, 10 months and 20 days. The sentencing ended the long series of Nuernberg war crimes trials that began in 1945 with the arraignment of Reichsmarshal Hermann Geering, Deputy Fuehrer Rudolph Hess, Foreign Minister Joachim von Ribbentro], and others of Hitler's top associates. Since that opening day, interrational and American tribunals have judged 220 accused war criminals in Nuernberg. They have ordered 24 defendants hanged, sent 17 to prison for life and imposed terms totaling 975 years on 82 others. In addition, they have helped write new international law that

holds individuals responsible for I international crimes committed luring war.

“Harry the Hermit." a* he’* railed, fame into town last week •nd. as usual, rauxed quite a atir. Ilf looks like a rposs between Santa Mau.x and Daniel Boone. We had a friendly glass of beer together and I asks him, “Don’t you ever get annoyed at the way lome people laugh and stare as you go by ? “Shucks no,’’ Harry says. •Only while they’re laughin’ at die, i m foclin’ a mite sorry for Utcm. Imagine—folks so ungrownup they can’t sec I’m really just the same as they are underneath.’•

From where I sit, Harry’s n lot more ‘civilized’’ than the people who make fun of him. He’s contented, lives the way he believes is right without harming anyone »nd what’s more, he’s tolerant of others whose tastes in living are different from his. Maybe we all don’t look the same, or act the same, or eat or drink the same, but in a free country, why show/d we? w
