of accused criminals for submis
sion in full with every case ''ready

P. H. B. Kent, British delegate

sion of difficulties encountered in

dence uncovered by, the recent

The American accusations have

" Kent's statement came shortly
after Lord ..Wright, chairman of
the commission had called for
speedy; prosecution land punish
ment of nearly 3000 persons
charged as war criminals by 11
allied countries.
I Kent suggested that some meth
od be devised of dealing with
certain war criminals en masse.
This would apply in; the cases of
large numbers of the enemy con
cerned in cruelties and tortures
suffered by inmates of concentra
tion camps and persons ; in occu
pied areas, he said. ) !
Lord Wright declared that some
ltoJson might "gradually grow up"
between the commission and the
separate Russian war crimes com
mission, which is not a member
of the united nations groups.
He asserted the commission has
decided; to lift its rule! of com
plete secrecy on its work, save
in cases In the far east, and made
several new disclosures about itsH
operation. No new names of war
criminals were released.
