Doomed Nazi General
Loses Appeal Here

A Nazi general yesterday lost a
District Court move here to over
turn his death sentence imposed
by an international tribunal on
atrocity charges.
Maj. Gen. Otto Ohlendorf was
convicted in Germany about seven
months ago of having had a hand
in the murder of nearly million
helpless people, principally Ger
man anti-NaziS, under the Hitler
regime.
He had a German lawyer pre-
pare habeas corpus petition and
mail it on his behalf to the Dis
trict Court clerks Office. He con-
tended the international court
that convicted him had no power
to do so.
Judge Alexander Holtzoff yes
terday turned him down here on
grounds that United States
Federal court has no jurisdiction
to rule on the judgment of the
international court. Judge Holt
zoff also ruled the petition invalid
because Gen. Ohlendorf is a nom
resident enemy alien.
The judges deision was in line
with the recommendations OF
Washington attorney Nicholas
Chase. court-appointed to report
on the law governing such cases
and to look out for the generals
interests.
Gen. Ohlendorf is in war
crime prison in Frankfort. Ger

All of this suggests another

This is, of course, nothing but
camouflaged issuance of paper
money, but it is a method of meet

available to local government. The
States and their political subdivis-
