West German Agency Pays
Doomed Nazis Defense Fee
By the Associoied Press

BONN, Germany. May 26.-The
legal fight of seven condemned
Nazi war criminals to escape the
gallows is being paid for by an
agency of the West German gov
eminent, spokesman for the
Ministry of Justice disclosed to-
day.
The agency is. known as the
Law Protective Office" It was
established by the Bonn govern
ment and given a budget for the
purpose of defending all Germans
under trial by foreign courts who
are without personal means.
The ministry refused to con-
firm reports that $4,000 has al
ready been spent by the govern
ment office so far in trying to
save the seven.
These foreign exchange funds
are reported to have gone to the
American attorney. Warren Ma
gee, who on Thursday obtained
f1ve-day stay of execution for the
condemned men from District
Court in Washington.

Lehman Hits Macarthur Plan,
Cites Seven Bad Predictions

2. In 1889, he said Japan did
not covet the Philippines.
3. In May, 1941, he said that
half the American, Dutch and
British forces then in the Pacific
could defeat Japan if war started.
4. In February. 1945, he said
two more years and early Russian
intervention would be needed to
defeat Japan.
S. In October, 1850. he predicted
at Wake Island that Red China
would stay out of Korea.
6. A month later he said Amer
ican troops would be home for
Christmas.
7. Last January the general
suggested to Washington immedi-
ate evacuation, saying United
States forces, could not hold
Korea.

York Governor, received the an

commitment of the necessary
forces to wage an all-out war
against Chint in the Far East at

reasoning, political reasons to the
contrary" He added that he did
not mean a complete invasion of
China.
II am talking about committing
sufficient air forces to carry this
thing through and sufficient land
and naval forces to carry it
through" he explained.
The general agreed with Senator
Hickenlooper that other members
of the United Nations are not do
ing as much as they should be
doing" in the Korean war.
When Senator Hickenlooper
asked Gen. Collins personal opin-

The United States may have
gained a wide new lead in the
race for supremacy in nuclear
weapons. But the question is:
How long can it be held?
The lead-indicated yesterday
in terSe announcement of secret
experiments completed recently at
Eniwetok-depends in great meas
ure on whether the atomic secrecy
system is better than it was five
years ago.
The announcement indicated
United States scientists may have
found the atomic trigger" that
will fire superpowerful hydrogen
bombs.
In the summer of 1946 Soviet
espionage agents gained key in
formation on the making of
atomic. bombs. BY official Ameri-
can estimates, Russia then gained
a year and a half of time in her
hitherto slow search for the
atomic secret. She produced an
atomic explosion in the summer
of 1949.
The American Government ap-
parently thinks its security of
nuclear secrets has improved. The
joint Senate-H House Atomic Energy
Committee, in a recent report,
commented that the atomic coun-
er-eSpionage system has not been
pierced since the 1946 break.
But for some reason (perhaps

United States now appears to want
the world to know it is making
progress toward production of a
hydrogen bomb which could be
IA thousand times more powerful
than atomic bombs.
The joint announcement yes
terday by the Atomic Energy
Commission and the Defense De-
partment didn't spell out the
words hydrogen bomb" But it
mentioned experiments contrib
uting to the thermonuclear weap-
ons research" in saying the
latest tests on Eniwetok Island
had been successfully carried
out" The H-boHb is such a
