Top German Criminals Soon to Go to Trial

They looked good while they were winning, but here behind barbed wire, with their authority and their fancy uniforms gone, they are a sorry lot. They are scared to death. They distrust each other. They try to pass the buck and they go into mysteries at the slightest thing
 That picture of top Nazis, Ger man generals and admirals was given b. a United States army ser- geant at the camp where they are awaiting trial as war criminals.
 Among those at the camp are such notorious Nazis as Hermann Goering; Robert Ley, head of Hit ler's Labor Front company union"; Julius Streicher, who led the Nazi campaign against the Jews, and former Foreign Minister Joachim von Ribbentrop.
 Their gangsters murdered anti Nazis without mercy, but now the men who ordered ruthless slaughter so blitEely, are squealing on each other, and abasing themselves in other ways, all to avoid their own

Justice Black held that the pur- pose of the Wagner Act was to en- courage collective bargaining and to protect the full freedom" of workers to choose their own bar gaining agents.
 Congress had made it illegal for an employer to interfere with em- ployees in their choice of bargain ing representatives, he stated, and had attached no conditions what soever to their freedom of choice in this respect" For this reason he held that Section of the Florida law, setting qualifications for busi- ness agents, circumscribed their full freedom. .'
 Citing further the provisions for a license fee and for scrutiny of ap application by state board, the majority ruled that to the extent that the section limits a unions choice of such an agent or bar gaining representative, it substi tutes Floridas judgement for the WOrKerS judgement.
 Although Section 6 of the Florida act, setting $1 license fee and re- quiring certain information, was found in itself not to conflict with the Wagner Act, the majority pointed out that for failure to com- ply with it the union had been en- joined from acting as a union.
 In conclusion, the majority de- clared that the Wagner Act and Sections and 6 of the Florida law could not move freely within the orbit of their respective purposes without infringing upon one an- other"
 In a unanimous opinion, written by Chief Justice Stone, the court declined to rule on the validity of

 Jackson Demands Action
 Supreme Court Justice Jackson is the American representative. He has been trying for months to get the court going. Firing of delays. Jackson announced a few days ago that the United States would go ahead alone in trying war crim. inals. That threat apparently got action.
 Only a comparatively few top criminals will be tried at Nuren. berg. But this will establish prece- dents for trying thousands of oth- CTS in the countries where they committed their crimes.
 Jackson has been fighting for 8 new principle-that the. .waging of aggressive war; Is g crime. It he succeeds in getting this principle adopted by the court, rulers of other countries besides Germany may think twice before they attack their neighborS.
 DefIated Hero
 The army sergeant and American officers at the camp described the condition and actions of the Nazi leaders and German militarists as they await trial.
 They said Goering, who used to be hero to most Germans and 8 few Americans, lis SO debased by his vices that he lacks the moral stamina Of normal men," and that Goering keeps saying nervously. T think you are going to kill me tomorrow"

VTginia La,oyers Seek To Establish SEClOsed Sh0p''
VIRGINIA LAWYERS SEEK

HAA$044N4&A A2IA w ! 4d1t0 OGGi1A
 Richmond, Va, Aug. 1-An eff fort to establish a closed shop" for lawyers in all proceedings be- fore the State Corporation Com mission, which has jurisdiction ov- CT railroads, was vigorously op- posed by rail labor at a hearing here.
 The hearing was called on a peti- ton by attorneys that the com mission amend it's rules so that only active members" of the Vir- ginia State Bar could practice be- fore that body. By active mem bers," it was revealed, the sponsors meant those whose dues are paid up in the State Bar Association
 Under the scheme, representa- lives of rail unions could be pre- vented from appearing on train abandonment cases, or other mat ters, unless they hired a Virginia attorney at fancy fees.
 The move was assailed by J. l.. Elliott, vice president of the Rail- road Photographers.
 "This proposal is contrary to the principles of democracy" Elliott told the commission. State com missions of this type have always been considered the common mans court open to all, whether law yers or not. That basic tenet should not be changed, merely to create jobs for attorneys"
 Carrier Spokesmen and many other witnesses likewise opposed the proposition, and it appeared

IS Comes
Into Its DUN

Gradually from an organization
which took over many military,
police and other functions, the SIS
grew to the point where it is the
dominating police force in Germany,
uniformed and plain clothes (the
Gestapo) and now the dominating
force in the army and the Reich.
1t has one entirely military branch,
the 'SS-in-arms" with its own panzer
and other divisions.
] was in Germany when war
broke out and it was that winter
that the SS-in-Arms was formed,
some SIS men being released from
the regular army to form these
units. 1t was evident when one
watched the SIS in any military
formation from sentry duty up, that
they tried to Guido the regular army
in snap, and spit and polish"
Their legs we're a little sitter when
they did the goose step. Their
salutes were as precise as a trip
hammer. They tried to look as
mean as they could and often sue
ceeded in looking meaner than that.
There is no doubt that the SIS
divisions have the reputation of be-
ing crack divisions and that they
have won at least some of the re-
spect of what is left Of the old,
professional, military element in the
Wehrmacht army which struggled
against their rise in power as long
as it could. Dispatches from the
western front frequently mention
SIS outfits-recently when they were
shooting American prisoners -- but
the Russians refuse to say they fight
any better than other divisions.
They have frequently been used as
reserves in tight situations and
also as strengthening framework
for less fanatical troops.
The BLACK Corps" as 1t is called
because of its black uniforms, is
described by one authority as en-
bodying "a military fanaticism
such as the world has hardly seen
from the days of Mahdi and Omdur-
man"

Ludendorf
Struck Keynote

The day war broke out about one
third Of the German people were
literally clothed in the panoply of
war. This was not an accident. 1t
was part Of the Nazi policy. The
Allies themselves more nearly
reached a state of total warfare at
the end of World War | than did
the Germans of that time, Luden-
dorff read this fact out of the bitter
ness OF the defeat Of 1918 He said:
total policy must in peacetime pre-
pare for the peoples life and death
struggle in time Of war in such
way that even under the impact of
war it cannot be shifted, broken or
completely destroyed by enemy
measures"
Hitler reafiirmed this thesis and
what is more Immediately put it into
effect as a policy, first by elimi-
mating all organizations not under
either the party or the army. A law
was passed as early as March, 1895,
which stated that "in wartime every
German man and every German
woman, beyond CONSUMPTION, Is
bound to render service to the
fatherland"
Let us look at some Of the "organi-
cations" which grew up under this
policy of total war First in impor-
lance, historically. is Che "Sturmab-
telling" translated Mai Storm
Troopers. abbreviated "SA' and
usually called the Brown Shirts"
Although this group contained mill
tary units, 1t was planned as
political army end was abolished
as such after the Roehm purge Of
1894. Then 1t contained three mil
lion men. 1t was shortly reborn and
