Eichmann-

able length to justify its right to
try Eichmann.
Regarding Eichmann’s com-
plaint that he was kidnaped, (the
court described at length a case
in Vermont in 1935 in which a-
man complained he was seized
in Canada and brought to justice
in the United States. The Ver
mont Supreme Court ruled that
the method of bringing the man
there was unimportant. That, in
effect, was what the Israeli tri
bunal decided in Eichmann’s
case.
Eichmann had argued lhat he
was only an underling who car-
ried out orders. But Ihe court
said: “The laws of humanity are
binding on individuals. The guilt
of Germany as a state does not
detect one iota from the per-
sonal responsibility of the
qused.”
He was tried under Israel’s
Nazi and Nazi collaborators law
of 1950 which provides death as
the maximum penalty. The death
penalty never has been invoked.
The packed courtroom was
deathly silent as the verdict of
guilty was pronounced. Many of
the 600 spectators had relatives
who were victims of the Nazi
program were themselves sur-
vivors of the deat hcamps.
There was not a sigh or a ripple
at the abrupt one-sentence ver-
dict which Judge Landau spoke
rapidly before beginning to out
line the court’s detailed reason-
ing.
The reading of tire judgment
will continue through today and
Tuesday. Altty. Gen. Gideon Haus-
ner—who prosecuted the case,
presented tons of captured docu-
ments and 112 witnesses—will
then advise the court on the pen-
alty.
Defense counsel Robert Serva-
Itius of West Germany, will make
his final plea and Eichmann will
be allowed to speak in his own
behalf.
The court rejected Eichmann’s
defense plea that Israel had no
right to try him for crimes com-
mitted elsewhere and under a law
passed years after the crimes.
“The court finds the law in the
best tradition of international
law,’’ the judgment found. The
court said international crimes
were tried as far back as the
Middle Ages in areas where the
guilty were caught. Piracy cases

were so conducted on the theory
that “all mankind muslt declare
war against,” such violations.
The Israeli judges said this reas-
oning applies to Eichmann as
well.
“A person guilty of piracy has
placed himself beyond the protec-
tion of any state,’’the court said.
Eichmann, as chief of the Ges-
tapo’s bureau tor Jewish affairs,
was no better than a pirate, the
tribunal concluded.
It was Eichmann’s job to round
up the Jews, arrange transport
to the death camps and see that
the human cargo was delivered
Out of that master Nazi plan to
wipe out the Jewish race, six mil-
lion died, more than half of all
of Europe’s Jewish population.
If Eichmann is sentenced to
death, his counsel can appeal to
the state Supreme Court. If the
high court rejects the appeal,
Eichmann can ask clemency from
President Izhak Ben-Zvi.

scores of Soviet submarines had
been reported operating. However
they are believed to have left
the Albanian bases some weeks
ago.
Albania, a poor country, is
faced with the loss of all East-
ern bloc economic aid and must
now turn to Red China.
At Munich, Germany, Radio
Free Europe’s East bloc experts
said they saw the break as a So-
viet attempt to force Peiping into
withdrawing support from Albania
or else assuming responsibility for
“declaring the open split in the
Communist camp which is now
perilously close.”
U.S. experts in Washington fig-
ured the logical next step would
be Albania’s expulsion from the
Warsaw Pact and withdrawal of
relations with Tirana by Soviet
satellites.

needed upstream dams and my
experience in other areas is such
as to convince me thalt it will
be a generation before you can
get them.”
Poage emphasized that Milam
County people feel the big dam
at Laneport is needed. “I can
understand why the people on
Ihe headwaters of the river feel
a big dam is not needed, but I
represent a group of people on
Ihe lower reaches of the river.
In fact, all of the San Gabriel
basin which I represent lies in
Milam County and it would be
hard to convince these people
who have been losing their crops
recurrently that immediate action
is nolt needed,” he said.
Congressman Poage said he
thought the people of Milam
County had been extremely pa-
tient and understanding. He said
they had realized that a dam at
Laneport would adversely affect
many people. Most of them, he
said, had joined him in agreeing
to submit the whole question of
just what is necessary for sound
flood control on the lower Gabriel
to a re-study. He said they have
patiently bided their time for
tour or five years when they
thought it would take only four
or five moiits to determine just
what was essential from a flood
control standpoint.
The congressman- said a few
Milam people criticized him for
joining in the agreement but that
he felt they should be fair to
everyone concerned. He added,
“I- therefore joined with Homer
Thornberry, who represents all of
the upstream area, with Con-
gressman Olin Teague, who rep-
resents a downstream area that
is affected by the floods of the
Gabriel, and with the then senior
senator from Texas, now our vice-
president, Lyndon Johnson, who
so long represented the Tenth Dis-
trict.
“I am sure you are familiar
wilth the essence of the fact that
we would not push for the con-
struction of the Laneport Dam
until the Army Engineers had
made a complete re-survey of
the flood control needs of the
San Gabriel and its tributaries,”
he said.
In spite of years of delay, Con-
gressman Poage said those in-
terested in downstream protection
stood by their agreement, “al-
though the dam on the Gabriel
was originally listed by the En-
gineers for a higher priority than
the structures on the Yegua and
Navasota, both of which have re-
ceived authorization or appropria-
tions while the Milam people have
continued to wait for the long
expected report on the Gabriel.
“Had this report recommend-
ed the elimination of the Lane-
port construction, I was commit-
ted to support the recommenda-
tions and I believe they would
have been accepted by my peo
pie. The report did not recom-
mend the elimination of the
Laneport Dam, but on the con-
trary recommended that it be
built promptly and that other
structures which are wanted by
many of the people of William-
son County should also be con-
structed,” he said.
The Congressman added, “My
commitment was to support the
recommendation of the Engineers.
I expect to carry out my com-
mitment. Your own representative
made a similar commitment. I
think (that it is extremely unfair
for the people of Williamson
County to now ask their repre-
sentative to repudiate that which
he agreed in good faith to do.”
Poage said he knew of no way
of settling differences of opinion
except to agree on some final
arbiter and to accept and abide
by the decisions of that arbiter.
He said, “I am not prepared
to say that I would have come
to the same conclusions that the
Engineers did, but I did agree,
and many of your representative
citizens of Williamson County
agreed, that they would abide by
that decision.
“I am frankly surprised, em-
barrassed, and a little perturbed
to find some ot the very people
who asked me and who asked
the people I represent in Milam
County to stand aside these long
years and commit ourselves to
join with these Williamson Coun-
ty people in accepting any decis-
ion that might be recommended
by the Engineers to now be peti-
tioning for a repudiation of that

Of farmers who favor such pro-
grams Shuman said:
“Too many farmers are still
looking for a miracle-working law
which will legislate prosperity in-
to agriculture. They refuse to face
the economic facts of life.”
Shuman often has criticized
farm controls, contending they
hurt farmers rather than help
them. But today, he went to
great length to criticize them on
a moral basis.
Te argued that farmers should
be free to operate under condi-
tions which allow market demand
for their products to determine
prices, income and patterns ot
farm production.
“This is the law of supply and
demand—an economic truth as
well as a basic moral law,” he
said.

said.
“I made that agreement in
good faith. I expect to carry it
out in good faith, including the
construction of the upper Wil-
liamson County dams as well as
the lower ones, and I feel that
good faith requires thalt the
people of Williamson County
should accept this decision with
equal good faith,” he said.
Congressman Poage said Wil-
liamson County people had had
their day in court. “You had your
appeal. You losl on the engineer-
ing facts as they were understood
by the Corps of Army Engineers.’
He added, “I think I have been
fair to the people ot Williamson
County. I must, therefore, now
respectfully insist that the people
of Milam County be given protec
lion without any further delay. I
do not want ilo force any program
on Williamson County, but I can-
not longer ask Milam County to
stand aside—waist deep in Hood
water.”
Congressman Poage said he saw
“no suggestion in the letter or
petition Ithat would justify any
party to this agreement to now
repudiate it.”
