MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD, OREGON THURSDAY. APRIL 20. 1961 Eichmann Tells Of Jewish Ties Through Family Jerusalem -(UPD- Adolf Eich mann says he never was anti Semitic and, in fact, was dis tantly related to Jews through his stepmother. The text of a 400,000-word statement he dictated into a tape recorder after he was flown to Israel from Argen tina was released today. Feels Sense of GuiU ' It revealed that he feels some sense of guilt that the Nazis killed six million Euro pean Jews, but that he insists the crime rests on the souls of other men. Some of his stepmother's relatives, both men and women,- married Jews, Eich mann said. His "Aunt Dorshi" was a Jewess and at the height of the Nazi terror he helped her daughter escape to . Switzerland, he said. Was Obeying Orders Although this is a prosecu tion, document, in part it sounds like a plea for the de fense. Eichmann seeks to jus tify his conduct on the grounds that he was a minor officer obeying orders. Policy was formed, he said, by Adolf Hitler, Heinrich Himmler and Reinhard Heydrich. All of them are dead. Eichmann said that after visiting the extermination camps in Poland he even pro tested to his superior officers against the killing of the Jews. He said he was worried about the effect of the holo caust on the character of the youth of Germany. ills Approved y Legislature Salem - (UPD - Measures ap proved Wednesday: By the Senate SB94-Obscene literature.

HJM8 - Asks Congress to pass legislation giving federal aid to education: Sergeant York's Account Squared Pall Mall, Tenn. - (UPD Sgt. Alvin York has claimed for years he doesn't owe the government "a dime." Today, for the first time in 0. years, Uncle Sam and the old Ser geant see eye to eye. Tax commissioner Mortimer Caplin Wednesday accepted a S25.000 check from Rep. Joe L. Evins, (D-Tenn.) and the government closed its books on the World War I Medal of Honor winner. ' York, now 73 and confined to his bed in a small home in Tennessee's mountain coun try, had been involved in a tax dispute over royalties he received from the 1941 movie "Sergeat York." The Internal Revenue Service accepted the $25,000 settlement on its $173,000 claim. The money was raised through a fund drive to aid York, one of the nation's most celebrated war hearoes. York, contacted here after the settlement, said: "I'm tickled to death to hear about this - anybody would be. You know, everylime somebody makes the load of life a lit tle lighter, it's good to hear about it." York is bedridden from a series of strokes and said he hadn't been feeling "too well" recently. He has said all along he doesn't owe the gov ernment any back taxes.
