' West Germans feared it would reopen old wounds and heap new shame on them. The Communist East Germans claimed they had nothing to worry about, that their hands were clean. There was apprehension in West Germany that its pain fully - restored reputation would be marred, particular ly in the United States, by the recounting of the horrors of Nazism in the Jerusalem court. ' . "Must we still wash our dirty - linen before the eyes of 'the world?" asked a young white-collar worker in Dussel dorf. ' Underlined Concern West German Chancellor Kbhrad Adenauer underlined the national concern in an un usual statement Monday night. Y :-. - "Today there is no National Socialistic Nazi feeling In the body of the German people. We have become a constitu tional state," the chancellor declared. . Some West Germans are an noyed that the liorrible ex cesses of the Hitler era should be brought to world attention again. They have been re-llvlng it for more than a year In a revival of film documentaries and radio broadcasts. Dominating the thinking Is the feeling that the crimes against the Jews were com mitted by a small group and that the German people are as a whole were unaware until too late. Soma Other Faars ' There was some fear also that trial may trigger another series of swastika-smearings by fanatical neo-Nazis anxious to ignite emotions and by Communists seeking to smear the West German state. Many Germans also feel that not enough emphasis has been made on the efforts to make amends. More than 2,000 Nazis have been hunted down and tried and the search continues, they point out. 1 . In addition, they point out that West Germany already has- paid out $3.25 billion to compensate Jews : and other victims of the Nazi terroism. When the restitution program, as It is called, is completed the total payment will be $6.25 billion. The Israeli gov ernment's share will amount to $862.5 million. Receive No Restitution Communist East Germany, on the other hand, has not paid one cent. As far as the Communists are concerned, they have already, atoned for any crimes that might have been permitted. - "Israel will receive no restitution from. East Ger many since restitution has been made by allowing Jews to live In East Germany with the same freedom as the Ger mans," East Zone propagan dist Albert Norden said re cently, v Many East German Com munists also feel that the Eichmann trial will injure the West German government's reputation by focussing atten tion on its past and alleged Nazi present. "The West German regime is Infested with Nazi crim inals," the Communist-run Na tional Front asserted. , "In the G.D.R. (German , Democratic Republic) the Nazi criminals have been condemned and iso Fibber McGee's Molly Interred Encino, Calif. -(UPI)- About 700 persons attended funeral services Monday for Marian Jordan who for years teamed with her husband to bring mil lions of Americans the old "Fibber McGce and Molly" show on radio.

How Eichmann Remained Out Of Limeli Editors note: In the following dispatch a united Press InternaUon al correspondent who covered the war and Nazi persecution o( the Jews until ' Pearl Harbor tells how Adolf Eichmann kept out of the Umellsht In Nail Germany. By JOSEPH W. GHIGG Jerusalem, Israel -(UPD- Ad olf Eichmann was the shad owy figure of the Nazi mur der machine. The man who is charged with part responsibility for the deaths of 6 million Jews purposely kept out of the limelight. I covered the first two and a half years of World War II in Berlin until Pearl Harbor. I followed closely the first mass persecution and sending of the Jews to the extermin ation camps in the east. ' During that whole period the name of Adolf Eichmann never cropped u p publicly I never heard it and never saw it mentioned in German or other newspapers. A Lieutenant Colonel Recently I have asked many other newsmen and diplomats who were in Berlin in the early years of the war wheth er they had heard of Eich mann. All said they had not. v Despite his vast power and Influence, Eichmann never was promoted beyond the rank of lieutenant-colonel in the secret police section of the Nazi SS. , Y e t ' in a country where bureaucratic channels and red tape count supreme, he took hiB orders directly from the Gestapochiefs themselves, Hlmmler, Heydrlch and Kal tenbrunner. Eichmann's' name first be came known to Allied intelli gence officers in 1044. Then he was ordered by '.the top Nazis in Berlin to tryjto ar range a trade - 10,000 win terized trucks for one million Jewish lives. , The negotiations with Jewish representatives Rudolf Kastner and Joel Brand in Budapest fell through but Eichmann's name found a place in Allied intelligence files. Adopts False Nam . Eichmann learned he was wanted as a war criminal when he took refuge in the Austrian mountains amid the crumbling ruins of Hitler's Third Reich. - , ' He adopted a false name and false identity before fin ally surrendering to (Ameri cans in May, 1945. Sot little was known then Of Eichmann that he success fully maintained his incogni to throughout 18 months in a U. S. Army prisoner of war camp. There were hardly any pictures of him eltner. . By the time the Nurenburg war crimes trials had started, and Eichmann's name became really prominent, he had es caped from the prison camp and was living as a forest worker in northern Germany. Dieter Wislinceny. Eich mann's former aide who later died on the gallows, said Eich mann told him when he knew the war was lost that he would leap laughing into his grave because the feeling he had 5 million people on h I s con science would be for him a source of extraordinary satisfaction, Child Welfare Is Observed by Legion Child Welfare month is be ing observed during April by the American Legion through out the nation. One of the Legion's basic programs, the Child Welfare program, was originated in France during World War I as "shared dangers and hard ships" created a deep, sense of responsibility for the children and dependents of , "fallen comrads," according to the Legion. . This "sense of responsibil ity" was developed during the American Legion's 42 years of service, and the Legion is now recognized as a pioneer in child welfare. With the slogan "A Square Deal for Every Child," the Legion helps promote federal and state legislation for the modernization of child care concepts, the improvement of juvenile court operations and adoption procedures, and the cessation of child labor ex ploitation. Since 1925, the Legion and its affiliated or ganizations have spent $162 million on child welfare and youth activities. Coos Bay May Gef Chemical Operation Coos Bay-IUPD-Robert Pamp lln, president of Georgia Pa cific Corp., has told CP em ployees here the firm is work ing to bring a large chemical operation to the community. Pamplln added he feels the chemical operation can come to the city if the community wants it. He said it would not only add to employment and local purchases but would add substantially to the tax base. Eichmann Trial Israelis Patrol Fortress At Scene of Eichmann Trial (Continued from Pag One) Eichmann, a baldish, pasty faced, broken man, went on trial this morning In a court house inside a fortress pa trolled from cellar to roof by hundreds of Israeli soldiers armed with submachine guns. After 16 years in hiding and in jail Eichmann walked into public view when he entered the bullet proof glass defend ant's box in the court room at 8:58 a.m. Except for a moment of apparent nervousness as he first looked about the court room through heavy horn rimmed glasses the accused mass murdered was still very much the Nazi colonel. : 'During the long' reading of the indictment against him he stood ramrod-stiff, hands at his side, his eyes riveted on the three judges who will de cide his fate. Once or twice he swayed slightly but otherwise he was like a waxen image without a flicker of emotion. Eichmann stands trial as Adolph Hitler's "traffic offi cer" in the murder of 6 mil lion Jews the man who moved the Jews from one point to another like a chess master playing a macabre game on the white and black board of life and death. The routes he marked out for the captive Jews almost always led to death in a gas chamber. . Before the challenge to the jurisdiction of the court Eich mann stood to hear the read ing of the fifteen-count indict ment against him. It fell like fifteen lashes on his back. As Servatius began his plea that the court disqualify itself one thing became clear Eich mann is going to be defended to the hilt, and every legal re course is going to be exhaust ed in the attempt to save his life.
