Nuremberg Trial Reporting
Wins Praise Of jackson
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
NUREMBERG, Jan. 16.-American
Chief Prosecutor Robert H. jackson
today praised newspaper reporting
of the Nuremberg trials as "excep-
tionally intelligent" as the Ameri-
can prosecution neared the end of
its case.
The British acting chief prosecu-
tor, Sir David Maxwell Fyfe, said he
seconded Mr.. Jackson's tribute.
"All reports I get from the United
States indicate the people have been
given a pretty clear picture of what
we have been trying to do" Mr..
Jackson said at press conference
Much more has been involved than
the fate of the men in the dock
You have made a very obscure and
difficult subject palmer"
Mr.. Jackson said the United
States was not yet participating in
any Allied preparations for a second
trial after Nuremberg.
Some one else will have to carry
it on" he said, since he plans to re-
turn to his place on the Supreme
Court bench in Washington in the
spring.
