WAR CRIMINALS
HITLER NOT ON LIST
LONDON, September 25. The “Daily Mail” says: The fate of Hitler after the defeat of Germany is still undecided. Allied Governments are considering whether he will be tried as a political prisoner and banished as was Napoleon to St. Helena; or face a military court for having violated laws and customs of war. In spite of an emphatic declaration by Senator Hull (U.S. Secretary of State) some days ago that Hitler’s name was on a list of war criminals prepared by the Allied Commission, London, his name is not there. Neither are the names of Goebbels, Himmler, or Goering. The Commission has collected the names of 350 well defined criminals, who must pay the price for tortures they inflicted on innocent peoples; but there is not one arch criminal among them. At the Moscow Conference in November, 1942, the Governments of Britain, America, Russia and China declared that German criminals would be punished by a joint decision of the Allies.
