A 'lawyer, under indictment capes police surveillance and flees to South America... . But this seems to be a mi- nority. "Newspapers are made by older people,"' said one young- ster, to explain why stories were printed on tria's at all. Some authorities have ar- ranged for high schuol students to attend war crime trials, but the practice is not widespread. Plays Hockey | While Wearing Artificial Leg SAINT JOHN, N.B. (CP)--A determined nine-year-old Saint John boy is breaking in a new hockey outfit this winter, as are a good many other youngsters his age. . But Harold Roberts exhibits isn't worried about the future despite his handicap, lost his left leg below the knee two years ago in a train mishap. Then seven years old, he dragged himself almost two blocks to the home of a prac- tical nurse, mother of a play- mate, after he tried to jump on a moving train near his home, His spirit made a deep im- pression on the people of Saint John and they established a fund to help pay for his educa- an extra measure of courage in tion. playing such rough-and-tumble| Fitted with an artificial leg The plucky lad, who says ha, THE OSHAWA TIMES, Wednesday, March 18, 1964 23 to become accustomed to it be- fore he was out romping, climbing trees and riding a bi- cycle.

EXCHANGE STUDENTS TORONTO (CP) -- Suburban Swansea Reeve Lucien Kurata has called for exchanges of French and English - speaking students to save Confederation. Mr. Kurata, who is of Japanese descent, says student exchanges between Quebec and the rest of Canada would create a fuller understanding of Canadian problems, ROYALTY PAYMENTS More than 60 per cent of royalties paid by Canadian text- book publishers. go to Canadian authors, ; Nearly 19 years after the col- lapse of nazism there are still West Germans doggedly trying to jail Nazi war criminals. Other West Germans are trying just as doggedly to conceal their past. A third group, which seems to include most of the population, is trying success- fully to forget the whole thing. At any given moment there may be several wa trials in progress in West Ger- many. They often drag on for months and get little public attention. TWO MAJOR TRIALS In the nex: few months two highly important ones will be , ing on at once. This is un- usual. One of the triais-is the biggest that West Germans have organ- ized since the war: accused of taking part in the killing of millions at the Ausch- witz extermination camp. The sessions began just before Christmas and may continue for a year more. The other may 'ast as long, although only one defendant is available. He is Dr. Hans Hfel- mann, 58, the head of what the Nazis called the "mercy kill- ing" section of Adolf Hitler's private staff. The program he co-ordinated had nothing to do with mercy. It. was.a plan to free hospital beds, doctors and nurses for war wounded by killing off about 200,000 mental and phy- ical defectives who may or may not have been curable. There were to have been four defendants in this trial, and eight or 10 in another Jater. But of: the four, two, died recentiy' One a suicide, and the other possibly a suicide. A third fled the country last summer. War crimes trials began at Nuernberg in 1946, Britain, the United States, Russia end France took part in an inter- national tribunal that trieq 22 of the top remaining Nazi lead- ers. Eleven were sentenced to death. Hermann Goering, long Hitler's No. 2 man, cheated the executioner by taking poison two hours before he was to be hanged. British, U.S. and French mili- tary courts sentenced 5,025 per- sons, of whom 806 were put to death.

NO CAPITAL PUNISHMENT West German esti- mate that their own authorities have tried another 5,500, but only five have been executed. West Germany abolishej capi- tal punishment in 1949. Prosecutions were not co- ordinated in West Germany until 1958, when a central war crimes office was set up at Ludwigsburg. It estimated that about 80,000 Germans had taken part in Nazi mass murders. By that time the big majority had either died, escaped or gone underground -- '"'playing sub- marine," the Nazis called it. Another 1,000 or so West Ger-| mans remain to be tried, offi- cials say, and the trials may last into 1970 or beyond. In 1970 a statute of limitations will make it impossible to prosecute a Nazi murderer unless legal CLUB HOUSE PEANUT BUTTER "~™ 39: LUNCHEON MEAT PREM oun 12 oz. tin 39: MORTON FROZEN FRUIT PIES peach, apple coconut custard 20 oz. pkg.
