Mrs. Koch One Of 317
Given Lighter Terms,
Army Says in Germany
BY the Assoeiotsd Press

FRANKFURT, Oct. Mrs. Ilse
Koch, mistress Of Buckenwald, is
only one of BIT persons whose war
crimes sentences have been light
ened, the United States Army said
today.
Life sentences of three others
connected with the notorious Naz;
death mill also were reduced, fig
ures released by the Army showed.
The BIT who won leniency rep
resented about one-fifth of the 1853
persons, mostly Germans, tried for
war crimes by American courts, ac-
cording to 56-page list compiled
by the Munich war crimes branch
of the judge advocates office.
The announcement last week that
Mrs. Koch's sentence was reduced
in June from life to four years i'm
prisonment caused a furore in the
United States, and brought demands
in Congress for investigation.
The woman, wife of the Buchen-
wald camp commander, was accused
during her trial of atrocities such
as the fashioning of lampshades
from the skin of tatooed inmates.
Reviewed Case Very Carefully
Gen. Lucius D. Clay, the Ameri-
can military governor of Germany.
and other American authorities
have contended that the evidence
did not show Mrs. Koch collected
such ornaments or contributed to
the deaths of any of the inmates.
In an interview yesterday Gen. Clay
said that, before he reduced the
sentence, he had reviewed the Koch
case very carefully"
Gen. Clay has been instructed by
the War Department to determine
whether the woman can be tried on
any other charges.
An army review board which
reduced the sentence June 8
commuted the prison sentences of
IL other Buchenwald defendants.
Among these was Prince Josias
Waldeck, the last commandant of
the camp. whose term was cut from
life to 20 years. Two other life
sentences were reduced to 20 and IS
years.
The review board upheld IS death
sentences in the Buchenwald case.
Gen. Clay said yesterday that the
evidence in the trial did not war
rant life sentence for Mrs. Koch.
Gen. Clay said Mrs. Koch. wife
of the camp commander, was
very despicable and very low
woman-which would have justified
shooting her on the spot just on
those grounds. Unfortunately that
is not the way we administer the
law"
Asked why the reduction in SEN
tence was not made public until
more than three months after he
signed it, the general said it was
just one Of those things that hap
pen. He said there was no attempt
to hide the decision.
He nodded when q reporter OBJ
served that this may have contrib

KU KLUX KHAN

Down in Macon, Georg.a, a group of American Legionnaires and church leaders are trying to head off a huge Ku Klux Klan demons tration scheduled for December 10.
 The Klan has engaged the city auditorium for that date and Grand Dragon Green, at secret meetings in Atlanta, has boasted that the Macon cross-burning would be one of the biggest in Klan history bigger than the gathering on Stone Mountain.
 However, many Macon citizens opposing the Klan have introduced an ordinance before the City Coun- cil forbidding men to hide their faces behind masks when meeting publicly. This would force the Klan either to abandon their Kar- nival in the auditorium, or to meet unmasked
 The big question is: Will the City Council be pressured by Klan influence not to pass the ordin- ance? A lot of people will be watching the decision.

 After December first the Austrian State Tourist Department announces visitors who wish to enter Austria can military permits by purchase of newly issued tourist cards which obtainabe from travel agents from the Department.
 Austria which offers winter skiing second to none in Europe will have 10000 beds available for tourists this winter; 400Oo beds for summer visitors
 Until this new plan announced it was neces- sary to make reservations and pay for them in ad- vance through the State Tourist Department.
 The new tourist cards will periods of one, three or seven days be combined into total chased in Austria. Thus visitors enter and stay as long as they like with without previous hotel reservations. They can freely from place to place and stay where they please either in hotels or as visitors in private homes.
 Customs officers at the border will issue to the holders of tourist cards meal coupons which will permit them to go to any hotel or restaurant and buy meals for the price paid by Austrlans. Visitors however, guaranteed 4500 calories daily day. and that sum will be refunded in Austria, in Austrian schillings at any Austrian postoftlce The foreign currency derived from the sale of the tourist cards will pay for the food the tourist consumes

Wealth of the Arctic
Cincinnati Enquirer

Cincinnati Enquirer) tN !.
 The wild barren wastes which extend across the northern segment of the North American continent long have piqued the imagination of man. Explorers have made thousands of journeys to chart them Mill lions of dollars have been spent in oufitting eXpedl tons. To date the Arctic has paid but few dividends on these earlier investments. But now, 1t appears, some of the resources painfully discovered, may be tapped
 Up along Labrador-Guebec border, geologists long ago discovered great deposit of iron But they didn't really know the extent or the value of the deposit until the summer just ended. Now they know that the Ungava holds metallic treasure as great as that of the Minnesota Mesabi-one of the richest in the world An initial production of 1O- 100000 tons year already in sight And the field developed and facilities are added the output douot less will be much larger.
 But iron ore isn't the only mineral wealth up in the land of the midnight Other geologists, ex- poring Canada's Northwest Territories, have found tremendous deposits of ol-bearing sands. Some es innate that these sands supply enough petroleum to care for large percentage of the worlds needs for years to come And the U. s. Navy, working on semisecret projects east of Pt Barrow also has uncovered important oil possibilities. Alaska's gold, they tell us is of small value compared to the rich potential of her oil fields.
 But the frozen North holds tightly to her treas ures She is hard mistress allowing but few weeks for normal above ground work. Man is slowly but surely gaining in his constant fight to whip the Arctic He is perfecting devices which, in future years will assist in tapping the resources. His initial investments at distant date - probably will pay off. But full development is not likely to come until necessity forces it: until accessible oil and mineral supplies all but exhausted.

 Perhaps no other people of the
 world would or could stage such a demonstration, but an Americans all dinner on this next inaugura- | tion night would be q master stroke to help bind free people and all who would be free into a dynamic unity.
 T suggest the following for a national committee on arrange ments with the only living former President as chairman and includ- ing all living former Presidential candidates and the widows of our former Presidents: Herbert Hoov- CT, Chairman; Herbert H. Lehman, treasurer, Governor Thomas E. Dewey, John w. Davis, James M. Cox, Alfred M. Landon, Mrs Frank lin D. Roosevelt, Mrs. Calvin D. Coolidge and Mrs. Woodrow Will son.
 But recognizing the fact that an idea such as this can die be- fore it is fully born, why not you and I make it come alive in our own homes and organizations? Here is a time for a man to practice what he breaches and having talk ed 1t over with my associates at Christian Herald magazine, we shall have our Americans-all dinner on January 20, 1949. Representing in cur organization every faith, every color, every racial strain, we qual- iiy for the occasion We shall come together and honor our Pres 1 ident.
 And we shall do something more. In the spirit of the occasion we shall bring gift for the 23O million neglected and suffering children of the world. To date the United States has miserably failed to answer the United Nations ap- peal for these children. We secur- ed only $6 million of our $60 mill lion quota, while Canada with one eighteenth of our national income raised S10 million.

FROM THE COLD WAR FRONT

Air Force strategists have es- timated that in case we do clash with Russia, Britain's bomber bases would be nonusable within 20 days. Russian buzz bombs and bombers would smash them up. The U. s. Navy is growing more and more alarmed over Russia's ex- banding submarine fleet. In case of war, Navy strategists fear the Navy could not keep the sea lanes open to American shipping :. After the war, Russia took over Germany's submarine sheds, plus latest U-boat inventions; now has 300 submarines, six times as many as Hitler had when he de- clared war This is why the U. s. Navy is specializing on light airplane carriers and destroyers to watch for enemy U-boats in World War Tiff it comes.

Austrian State Tourist Department, whose R. F. Mat tesich in New York gives personal attention to any tourist inquiries, concludes that "the system not only provides complete mobility to visitors who had previously to book and prepay hotel Accommodations, but does away with all questions of classification and abolishes most of the formalites undergone by the 12000 Americans who visited Austria this year.
 Tn Austria traveller is the east he get without running into the restrictions of coun- tries behind the iron curtain"
 The very fact however, that in spite of war rumors Austria is making travel easier for tourists gives enc hopeful feeling that it can't be as bad as it seems from what we read in the papers"
 So, if you want to go skiing in the Austrian Tyrol this winter, hear the opera in Vienna, the Austrian State is making it easy for youand you won't be hungry
