Public Prosecutor Suggests Reopening the Bormonn Case Bonn (JTA)—A majority of the town council in Muehldorf in Upper Bavaria has voted to refuse Martin Bormann Jr., son^ of Hitler's deputy, the job of religious teacher in a local vocational school for which he had been recommended by the Catholic Archdiocese in Munich. Bormann Jr., is a Catholic priest. The • town council cited no reason for Its decision, wfalch followed wides p r e a d newspaper reports that the elder Bormann is alive in South America. , The reports are based on documents' that a' Hungarianborn author, Ladislas Farago, says he collected in Argentina and elsewhere which claim that Bormani) has been' living in Argentina since 1948 under a variety of aliases. Last week, the Frankfurt public-prosecutor, WUhelm Metzner, said he ' was highly skeptical of the claims. JJut Metzner said this week that he would consider reopening.',-war crimes proceedings against Bormann as a means of,'obtaining his extradition should Farago's reports prove true. .Metzner.said the documents farago showed him "made Brcrea.ibl? impression." •

He said the writer promised to supply him with a complete set next month and that he would have them analyzed with a view> to getting the man identified'as Bormann extradited to West Germany. Farago c l a i m e d he also showed the documents to Dr. Robert M.W. Kempner, former deputy chief counsel for the U.S. at the Nuremberg war crimes trials, who was quoted as saying he thought they were authentic and would ask the U.S. and its wartime allies to reopen the Bormann case within the framework of the International Military Tribunal. A hoax An Israeli expert said that the recent "revelations" that Hitler's deputy Martin Bormann was alive in Argentina were untrue and based on documents that "are a hoax." Yaacov Caroz, an I s r a e l i writer who is an acknowledged expert on intelligence matters, said the documents cited by Hungarian-born author Ladislas-Faraga as proof that Bormann fled to Argentina in 1948 _ and still lives there contain no information that has not been available to the public from other sources for years.

Lubavikher Rebbe Assails "Manner" Cose Decision New York (JTA)—The Lubavitcher Rebbe has called on Chief Rabbi Shlpmo. Goren, of Israel to resign on grounds that he was "coerced" by the Israeli government to issue his controversial ruling in the Langer cape, ,a. spokesman for the Hasidic leader said! ' The-spokesman s a i d that Rabbi Menachem M. Schneerson, in a recent address to his followers, advised Rabbi Goren to tell the Israel, government "You are frying* •to"' Influence my rulings and I cannot hold the' post of Chief Rabbi under these circumstances." The ruling, by. <a- rabbinical court assembled by Rabbi Goren last month that Ilanoch and Miriam1 L a n g c r were not "mamzerjlni" (illegitimates)

and therefore free to marry, created an uproar In rigbtwing Orthodox circles in Israel and the U . S . .••••' • : ; ' . : : ; \

The Union of Orthdox Rabbis of the United States and Canada announced that it associated itself with Orthodox rabbis in Israel who were: condemning Rabbi Goren. The group resolved to send • Premier Golda Meir a "strong protesf'.against the alleged "pressure" the Israel government brought to bear on Israeli rabbis ''demanding from them" decisions to "legitimize matters which will meet the State's desires." The resolution said the rabbinical group was "against any terror by whomever it may be, but is also against irresponsible threats aimed at religious, Jewry."

Your Wife

By Mrs. Morris C. Fellman 'in

j The memory of Hanukkah is still with the Home residents, even as they start thinking about exciting New Year's events! The'"Sunday of Hanukkah" party given by LOVE was a huge success. Each man resident received a gift of socks from LOVE, each woman resident received a zipper cased sewjng kit. The gifts were appreciated greatly, as was the visit that day of the Beyenth and eighth graders from Beth El U.S.Y. Youth Group who acted as "friendly visitors." They played games, visited with the residents, pushed a wheelchair or two, and in general, 4dded to the beauty antj the gaiety of the day. Hopefully, more of our youth groups will begin coming out to the Home. ; The Pioneer Women who brought hand-made decorations to the Home for Hanukkah had the same joyful experience as the youth. They visited with each resident as they helped decorate the rooms—found they "got more out of the experience than they gave." ' IT'S A FAMILY AFFAIR could easily be the way the Nogg family describes their .association with LOVE . . . daughter Marsha Nogg comes out very often with father Donald . . . . Mom Ruth Nogg also joins Donald when he comes out on Monday nights, and Don's mother-in-law Belle Katz is a regular LOVE, volunteer on Monday mornings. This past Monday morning Belle had .a heart-warming experience she will long remember. In the small dining room in the hospital wing where several of the residents spend their free time, she sat down next to one very elderly woman. In Yiddish Belle asked her "Tel! me where you came from in Russia." Immediately the woman opened her eyes, sat up as straight as she-could and responded in Yiddish, "from-Minsk, of course.'1 From that moment until Belle left to help another resident in the beauty parlor, the woman (who had not spoken for days) continued to tell Belle about her childhood, the work shfi\did in her small "shtefl" and about her "shana malm" (her beautiful husband). And when Belle returned, to the room,'that woman, and another who had sat quietly too long, were deep in conversation about their childhood in Russia!

', * * * These cold wintry days can be dull and boring at the Home when it Is difficult for LOVE volunteers to show up for their tour of duty. Thai's why it was such a delight for the residents Tuesday when In the midst of the. snow storm Rabbi Louis Grosslngcr of Beth El came out to visit with the residents In a discussion group and to stay on for lunch with them. It was a real treat for the residents and they, were grateful to Rabbi Grosslnger for the time he spent with them and the effort he made to come out. * * * Despite all the activities going on and the plans being made, there is a real need for more volunteers.
