"The accused was a very im portant link in bringing Jews to camps where he knew full well they were going to be exterminat ed," the prosecutor said. Hausner cited evidence at the Nuernberg war crimes trials by such top Nazis as Hermann Gocr ing singling out Eichmann as a central figure in all Jewish mat ters.

"He was Soviet Workers Show Solidarity MOSCOW (AP)-The Soviet Un Ion today organized a show of workers' solidarity behind Pre mier Khrushchev's firm stand on Berlin. Defense workers gathered at meetings to pledge a longer day at the plant if needed. Khrushchev, who called for East-West negotiations on Ger many but stuck to his demand for East German control of the access routes to Berlin, told the Soviet people Monday night that no sacrifices would be necessary to bolster the nation's military power. But defense workers throughout the nation were summoned to fac tory meetings immediately after the speech. Communist party ac tivists in fiery speeches called for a show of support for Khrush chev's policy and workers raised their hands to approve previously prepared resolutions on a longer work day. The Communist party paper i'ravua published a picture of one solemn - faced group with hands raised at a Moscow de fense plant. Ihe paper said the workers meetings "approach the govern ment with the request to permit de fense plants to switch from a seven to eight-hour working day for the purpose of further strengthening the defenses of the fatherland." Khrushchev said the Soviet Un ion may have to move divisions to its Western borders and call up reservists. But he told the Rus sians that no extra appropriations would be necessary for the arms buildup. The armaments which have al ready been produced and are be ing produced by our industry will be sufficient," he said.

(AP) Secretary - General Dag Ham- marskjold begins polling the 99 members of the United Nations today to determine if three more will agree to a special session of the General Assembly to take up the French-Tunisian dispute. Tunisia s Asian-African support ers lined up 47 signatures on re quests for the session, but turned the task over to Hammarskjold after a week of trying unsuccess fully to get the necessary majori ty of the U.N. membership. The request is for an assembly meeting as soon as possible "in view of the gravity of the situa tion" resulting from the French- Tunisian battle last month around the French naval and air base at Bizerle, Tunisia. Tunisia accuses France of ag gression and refusal to withdraw its troops to prcbattle positions as demanded by the Security Council July 22. A Soviet request for the session went not to Hammarskjold, whom Iho Soviet bloc refuses to recog nize as secretary-general, but was addressed "to the secretariat. The Soviet delegate, l'laton D. Morozov, pointedly told newsmen he had handed the bloc's request to . Andrew Cordier, undersecre tary in charge of General Assem bly affairs. Gary Ml. Goethe Gary M.

Hausner lumped Eichmann to gether with the top Nazi war criminals and pictured them all "as men who saw an opportunity for good salary and comfortable living conditions, prepared for these ends to give total support to an abomination." Hausner's summing up Is ex pectcd to continue through Thurs day and possibly into Friday. Eichmann's West German defense attorney, Dr. Robert Servatius, will present the defense summa tion after a' short break of per haps two days. Servatius is ex pected to speak for only one day.

Western Europe To Khru's 'Let's LONDON (AP) Western Eu rope reacted today to Premier Khrushchev s let s talk it over speech with a mixture of caution, skepticism and a willingness to negotiate. Most British newspapers agreed with Khrushchev that it was time for East-West leaders to sit down at a table and negotiate the press ing issues of Berlin and Germany. But in France and West Ger many, there was caution and some suspicion of Khrusncnev s motives. Some newspapers and politicians felt that the Soviet premier had not changed the crisis climate. 1 'Negotiation in his eyes can be 5 Workers Die In Titan Mishap DENVER (AP)-A 58-lon steel and concrete door ' atop a Titan missile launching silo slammed shut with an earth-shaking crash, killing five workmen and injuring eight others Monday. Three bodies were recovered. Two others were pinned between the door and the edge of the huge silo. A spokesman at Buckley Field, scene of the tragedy 15 miles west of Denver, said "it may be as long as 72 hours be fore the door can be raised." "It presents considerable of an engineering problem," said a spokesman for one of the civilian contractors on the $160-million construction job. Buckley Field Identified two of the dead as Jerry E. Brancio of Denver and George Graham of nearby Aurora. Only two of the injured men were hospitalized, Charles W. Postle, 42, of nearby Aurora and Howard Hoffman, 56, of Littleton, Colo. The others were treated and released. Postle suffered a broken back. Witnesses said some of those who were injured leaped into safety nets placed at intervals in the 165-foot silo. The massive door was one of a pair which are raised hydraulic- ally as a missile rides to tne sur face. A spokesman at the missile complex said either a hydraulic failure or failure of a retaining cable caused the door to crash. It cracked and split with a tre mendous roar. The tragedy scene was the first of a Titan three-site complex to be turned over to military con trol. Each site on the Colorado plains will have a capacity of six missiles.

Shows Caution Talk' Speech conceived only on the basis of the settlement he envisages for solv ing the Berlin crisis," said Paris' conservative Figaro. Despite the urgency of the situ ation, many newspapers through out Europe gave top billing to So viet cosmonaut Gherman Titov. Even the Communist party newspapers in London, Rome and Pans considered the space travel er the biggest newsmaker of the day. So did the London Daily Mir ror and Daily Herald, and all early editions in Rome and Paris. Copenhagen papers were too pre occupied with Titov to mention his premier editorially. West Berlin Mayor Willy Brandt said Khrushchev had done noth ing to reduct East-West tensions Brandt assailed Khrushchev s statement that self-determination for Germany was just a hypo critical Western slogan. The may or said the Germans' elementary wish for self-determination can not be passed off with the art of dialectics. The London Daily Mail called for a summit meeting with Khrushchev "at the earliest mo ment to find out what his real intentions are." The London Times said the door on both sides is open to negotiation. "Mr.' K wants recognition for East Germrny," said Britain's laborite Daily Herald. "The West wants copper - bottomed guaran tees for the freedom of Berlin, Here is surely a basis for talks." Lord Beaverbrook's indeDend- ent Daily Express also called for bargaining and Indicated the West should give Khrushchev the rec ognition he demcads for the Com munist East German regime.

Surge Of Volunteers Follows JFK's Call For Arms Buildup WASHINGTON (AP) A sus tained surge of volunteers has followed President Kennedy's call for a buildup of U.S. armed forces and the announcement of higher draft calls. Defense Department sources said today a sampling of enlist ment trends in widely scattered areas showed there has been no letup in the increased rate that followed the President's speech two weeks ago. .

HE was 83. His last words, an associate re ported, were: "May man form governments of strong men who are guided by God." That was in the spirit of his preachings of many years that God should rule the world. To him this philosophy was so simple and so self-evident that he never seemed to understand the contro versy that often surrounded his movement. It was founded as the Oxford Group after World War I and re named Moral Re-Armament in 1933. From the outset, the move ment was attacked by Socialists and labor leaders for an alleged capitalistic bias, by others for pacificism and by some religious leaders for unorthodox theology. But Dr. Buchman built up a following of millions and became a friend of kings and statesmen. Every year more than 100,000 fol lowers came to his headquarters in Switzerland overlooking Lake Geneva. Other thousands gathered at the U.S. headquarters in Mack inac Island, Mich. One of the guiding principles of the movement was once expressed by Dr. Buchman as "the need for unconditional surrender of the hu man will to the will of God made manifest in Jesus Christ as lord and savior."

Moreover, it's cricket to bring the little woman along. She can have a free round trip by govern ment plane, so there would re main only the cost of food, lodg ingand shopping. Congress will pick up a $60,000 expense tab for the three confer ences. They include the Inter parliamentary Union meeting in Brussels, Sept. 14-22, the Com monwealth Parliamentary Asso ciation in London, Sept. 24-Oct. 1 and the NATO Farliamentaiy Conference in Paris, Nov. 13-13. The bill may be $15,000 higher if House members decide to at tend the London meeting as well as the other two. An even dozen Democratic sen ators drew a NATO assignment when Vice President Lyndon B. Johnson handed out the plums Monday. Republicans will send only four, since they didn't go into the business of selecting al ternate delegate as their Demo cratic colleagues did. Another dozen Democrats and four Republicans will go to the Brussels meeting. The London conference will draw four Demo crats and two Republicans.

The Appropriations, Foreign Relations and Armed Services committees are always sending off delegations to investigate con ditions in distant parts. Strangely enough, the Interior Committee can provide some interesting spots to visit, because it is con cerned with insular possessions. some of which are distant from the interior. Senators don t like to have any of these journeys alluded to as junkets. They say, sometimes with a far-away look, that they are strictly business. New Sentence Due ttr AftiieArl Pnttiet Ernest C. Watson, serving time in the Oregon State Penitentiary from Douglas County, has won the right for return to this county for resentencing in Circuit Court. The right was gained on trial in a suit brought against Clarence T. Gladden, warden of the peniten tiary. Watson was sentenced to 10 years by Circuit Judge Charles S. Woodrich on April 11, 1958, on a charge of rape. He pleaded guilty to the charge brought in a Grand Jury indictment, and sentencing was Imposed following a psychiat ric examination at the Oregon State Hospital, where it was deter mined that Watson was not com mittable to the hosnital. He sought his freedom under the post-conviction law, listing five points which he claimed to be er rors in law in proceedings leading up to imposition of sentence. On trial in Circuit Court for Mar lon County Aug. 1, Judge George A. Jones denied all but one claim. This was that Watson was not pro vided with a copy of the psychiat ric report of the examining psychi atrist. Judge Jones ruled that Watson had sustained the burden of proof as to this contention. He ordered that the sentence imposed be va cated and that Watson be returned to Douglas county for imposition of a new sentence. It was ordered that the sheriff of Douglas County has 30 days from that date to re turn him here for resentencing. Otherwise hi will be granted bis freedom.
