Ribbentrop Advocated
Lynching Of All Allied
Flyers, Court Is Told
BY the Associated Press.
NYTrpN NrrDr r.

NUREMBERG, Germany, Jan. o
Evidence was presented TO the In
ternational Military Tribunal today
to show that Joachim Won Ribben-
trop, former Nazi Foreign Minister
advocated the lynching of all cap
tured Allied flyers who participated
in the bombing of German cities.
Sir David Maxwell Fyfe, British
prosecutor, closing his case against
the one-time champagne salesman
on trial for his life with other high
ranking Nazis, introduced docu-
ments showing the German high
command turned down Won Ribben-
trop's proposal as too drastic.
Instead, the army and air force
defined as terror action justifying
lynch law" only low-level attacks
or civilians, shooting of parachut-
ing German airmen In the air, straf
ing OF civilian trains and attacks
on civilian trains which were
marked with Red Cross.
Urged Jap War on U. S.
Sir David also introduced docu-
ments showing:
That Won Ribbentrop urged Jap
an, through Ambassador Hiroshi
Oshima, to declare war on the United
States.
That he informed Mussolini in
1910 that Spain had agreed to enter
the war as soon as preparations were
completed and indicated that Ger
many planned to send troops, special
weapons and planes to assist in an
attack on Gibraltar.
That Won Ribbentrop promised
the Japanese Ambassador Germany
would liquidate the British Empire
and completely wipe out Soviet Rus
Sia. T.
The British prosecutor introduced
a secret message to Tokyo, inter-
cepted by the Allies, showing that
Won Ribbentrop had assured Japan
week before Pearl Harbor that
British lands throughout the world
will probably be divided three ways
by Germany, the United States and
Japan"
Roosevelt Termed Fanatic.
He gave no indication why he be-
lleved the United States might share
in dividing up Britains Empire, but
he presumably believed that the
Americans would move into British
areas in the Western Hemisphere.
When Oshima asked him if Ger
many actually meant to 60 to war
with the United States, Won Rib
bentrop responded.
Roosevelt is a fanatic, so it is i'm
possible to tell what he would do"
In his summary, Sir David de-
|scribed Won Ribbentrop as a we'll
known Jew batter"
The prosecution. turning next to
the Army high command, began the
presentation of evidence against
Field Marshal Wilhelm Keitel and
Col. Gen. Alfred Jodl.
Secret Nazi documents were in
troduced to show that the high COM
mand in 1888 adopted a premise
that declaration of war was un-
necessary to start hostilities and
that the rights of neutral nations
should be considered only from the
standpoint of advantage to COM
batant powers.

"In his address, Gen. Styer ex-
planned that in four months, the
Army has demobilized two-thirds of
his command, which 1t took two
years and six months to build. For
the entire Pacific area, 1t has been
found necessary to deploy an Army
Of 375, 900 Army troops, including
Air Forces, to perform our occupa-
tional and postwar garrison duties,
as of July, 1946. Our forces can
not be permitted to demobilize at
such a rate that the flow of re-
placements from the recruiting pro-
gram and selective service cannot
maintain that minimum strength
Further, supplies assembled in the
far-fung bases must be protected
to prevent wastage, deterioration
and theft.
Gen. Styer reported by radio to
Gen. Macarthur that no mass dis
ciplinary action has been initiated
by responsible commanders because
there have been no acts of violence
or disorders. Gen. Macarthur re-
piled giving his approval to the &C
ton proposed by Gen. Styer, and
stated that the discomfort has been
primarily caused by acute home
sickness aggravated by the termi-
nation of hostilities. These men are

MANILA, Jan. 9.-Behind mass
rallies staged here by soldiers to
protest the slowing of the demobili-
zation rate lies a suspicion among
some troops that they will be used
for new American adventures in
intervention" in the Far East.
This feeling was heightened with
a disclosure last week that the 86th
Infantry Division would be given
renewed combat training.
Although this measure would ap-
pear necessary from purely a mill
tary standpoint-trained troops are
needed to quell any disorder that
may arise in troubled areas occupied
by American troopS-many soldiers
voiced concern. They fear they may
be used to intervene in postwar Pa
ciflc squabbles in which they have
no personal intereSt-such as Chi
mas civil strife. Many feel also
that. should violence break out
among factional elements in the
Philippines, the American Army
shouldn't be used to put down re-
bellionS.
Distrust Voiced.
"Of course, they tell us officially
that we will be used to safeguard
American property" said one soldier
who has one point less than the
number required to send him home
to his wife and two children, but
I feel that it isn't worth one of our
boys lives to save anything we have
here
The position of Army command
ers, however, is clear They must
have battle-ready troops to under
take any assignment Americas for
eign policy requires. Unfortunately
in such matters the extent of such
assignments isn't clear because for
eign policies are expressed through
diplomats who, by the nature of
their tasks, speak vaguely rather
than directly
This doesn't make much difference
TO professional soldiers. They fight
when they are told to. But civilian
armies fight well only against those
they hate. America still has a
civilian army.
There is no country or people
against whom these troops now
waiting to 60 home have any strong
feeling of hate Otherwise, you
could blow a bugle and they would
fall patriotically into battle line.
Their demonstrations against the
War Departments contradictory re-
deployment program is the result
chiefly of lack of frankness on the
part of higher leaders in Washing
ton, who raised their hopes too
high too fast. The natural reaction
of disappointment over the new pol
icy of retarding the demobilization

GIs al Batangas Vote
Funds for Advertising
To Dust Patterson
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
MANILA, Jan. ga mass meeting
of 1000 GIs at Batangas, south OF
here on Luzon, voted funds last
night for full-page newspaper ad-
vertisementS in the United States
demanding removal of Secretary oil
War Patterson and appealing to the
public for pressure on Congress to
speed the demobilization of overseas
forces.
Money collected at the meeting
to pay for messages to President
Truman and the chairmen of the
Senate and House Military Affairs
Committee totaled more than S., 600
far in excess of the estimated cable
costs and that pledges would swell
the total to $4,000. So the men
voted to take full-page space in Is
leading dailies to carry their case
to the folks at home.
Copy for the advertisements was
approved by acclamation. The one
demanding Mr.. Patterson's removal
charged he was convicted of incom-
petence by his own statement that
he didn't know men overseas were
not accumulating discharge points
since September g."
(Mr. Patterson said in Tokyo
Saturday that he had evidently
been misunderstood by reporters
for service publications who quot
ed him as making such a state
ment last week on Guam. Yes
terday five of the reporters con-
cerned, in statement published
by Stars and Stripes, denied they
had either misquoted or misun-
derstood him.
The Batangas meeting was orderly
and was conducted under parlia-
mentary rules by Sergt. Emil Macy
of Detroit. Although it was pre-
dominately CT affair, large num-
bers of Junior officers participated.
Operations Held Waste.
A soldiers committee at Base R,
Batangas, declared today 1t is pre-
pared to show that post VI day
military and shipping operations in
the Philippines represent an uneco-
nomic waste and do not justify the
retention of more than a normal
peacetime garrison.
Sergt Emil Macy of Detroit
chairman of the Batangas Mass
Meeting Committee, said he had
requested Senator Tunnel of the
Senate Subcommittee on Demobili-
zation and Surpluses which is tour

story.
He said he was prepared to tell
Senator Tunnel on his arrival from
