That Question Is posed today by a talwart six-foot-two-lnch lormer idjutant of Helnrich Hlmm i r O o 1. toachlm Pelper, rho might m dme have taken Idol I Hitler's lace. And It la a I a r d question n answer re rardleas of hether Pelper. who one of his sergeant a a 1 d ranted to be ams "the fuehrer of the fourth ralch, ultimately la hanged, goes to prison or la freed. This handsome nasi soldier still ftnly 33 years old is one of 43 Ger nan SS troops condemned to death Mi charges of murdering 750 Amen an soldiers and ISO Belgian civil- 'tans during the Battle of the Bulge. ) Among the victims were more Ihan 70 unarmed members of a U. S. mi HAL BOVLE Letters Filed Iln Bribe Case J WALLA WALLA, May 21 () p,tters, which a witness said were r-in-itten by Governor Wallgren and " attorney General Smith Troy, were Hied as evidence today as the state m pressed Its conspiring to bribe lharge against former Assistant 2 Utorney General Shirley Marsh w md Roy Houghton, one-time Brem- Srton resort owner. M The defendants are accused of laving sought to bribe two Walla Walla county official Prosecutor ia albert Bradford and Sheriff A. A. r thick, to permit gambling in the JJiounty. . Both prosecution and defense at torneys agreed to admission of the jltttcra Into evidence after Judge n Louis Bunge opposed their admis "ion and they were admitted. He jiaid information they contained was ,,aarsay. J Bradford said the letters were ntrom the governor and attorney "general He testified that the let J tars said Marsh had been asked to , Investigate law enforcement condl v Mans in Walla Walla county, and " making such icrestigations at "stie time Bradford and Snick said aether wart approached regarding "satabUshment of a club.

Passed By Court The death sentences for Pelper and his pals were passed by an in ternational court sitting at Dachau, where the trial Judge for hundreds of thousands of German concentra tion camp prisoners had been the gas chamber. There was no appeal from the gas chamber. The sentences against the nasi storm troopers were appealed to the U. S. supreme court which refused to review It on a 4-to-4 de cision that it had no Jurisdiction. This only points up again the le gal difficulties in assessing war guilt. Meanwhile Secretary of the Army Kenneth C. Royall has ordered a stay of execution against 17 of the condemned men pending-lnvesti-lt.it ion of charges the nails had been beaten and forced to confess at mock" trials in prison by Ameri can prosecutors. The case has an added interest because Peiper was a bold and out standing soldier for whom some American commanders profess a re luctant off-the-record admiration. They don't condone the crimes committed by his men. They do recognise his leadership In battle. Flew Atlantic One, American officer who had been his prisoner, Lt. Col. Hal D. McCown of Rushlon, La., even flew the Atlantic to testify In Col. Pap er's defense. He said the voting nasi officer. when his progress was halted, freed ' 150 American prisoners and "at no 1 time did I see mistreatment of American prisoners of war." I remember Interviewing Lt Col. ! MrCown near Malmedy a few hours ; after he got bark from capture , himself. Peiper, after burning his I sli-anded tanks and guns, had taken ofl on foot at the head of his column of men and safely led them at night through the American lines. Where dues war end and murder Ugln? Young Col. Prtcr, arro gi.nl, brave and self-confident the man who might have become an other Hitler is the symbol of one unfinished answer. The shadow of night Is upon him. Bikes - Tricycles Wagons and Taylortoti (llahv Walkers!
