Trickle' of Nazi War Criminals In U.S. to be Deported NEW YORK The di- rector of the Justice De- partment's Office of Special Investigations, Alan A. Ryan, has told the World Jewish Congress that he expects that "the months ahead" will bring the first deportations of Nazi war criminals hiding in the United States, but that when the process begins "it will be a trickle, not a tor- rent." Ryan made this disclosure at a recent meeting with the North American Branch of the WJC Anti-Semitism Commission in New York. He placed the failure to deport Nazi criminals till now on the "complex and terribly time-consuming system of ap- peals and hearings" which "en- courages and rewards delay."

The Office has investigated over 500 people and having won all cases it had previously tried, has brought to court some 18 additional cases for trial in the months ahead. Specifically targeted for inves- tigation, Ryan stated, were, "perpetrators of the Holocaust concentration camp staff, auxil- iary storm troopers, SS murder- ers and government officials who were specifically ineligible to enter the United States under the law" but succeeded in entering the country by misrepresenting their whereabouts and activities during the War years. Ryan reported that important breakthroughs had been made in engendering the cooperation of East European government in the investigative work. He revealed in this connection that during a recent visit to Moscow he had negotiated the first agreement ever allowing the American gov- ernment to take testimony from Soviet citizens. THIS HAD resulted in receipt of videotaped depositions of 75 Soviet witnesses which have al- ready been used in several court cases. He also noted that the full cooperation of the government of Poland continues in force despite the imposition of martial law. He informed the WJC Commission that next month he will meet for the first time with officials of East Germany and Czechoslova- kia in an attempt to secure their assistance as well. One of the difficult questions often posed to him, Ryan said, came from individuals who ask what the point is in "ruining the lives of a bunch of harmless old men who have lived decent lives here for 30 years, raising families, paying taxes, and minding their own business." Such questions, he noted, miss the point when they stress that these "old men" pose no future danger to anyone: "We are proceeding against them under the law, not because of what they might do in the fu- ture but because not to proceed against them would necessarily forgive what they did in the past," Ryan observed. "What we are doing is enforcing the law against the very people who violated it," he concluded. Die-Hards Need Forgiving JERUSALEM (JTA) - Premier Menachem Begin is against prosecuting some three score anti-withdrawal die-hards arrested by police during the Yamit evacuation. At a weekly Cabinet meeting. Begin said he would favor "forgiving them." Attorney General Yitzhak Zamir said the state and the army must not, in his view, "Forgo its honor" regarding the alleged miscreants who had deli- berately assailed the govern I ment, the Knesset and democra- cy. Begin said he did not want to "interfere" with the judicial pro- cess, and it was not immediately I clear how the episode would end. in Ha'aretz WZPS, JerUsalmi Synopsis of the Weekly Torah Portion ''Seven days ye shall eat unleavened bread" (Lev. 23.6). "... a memorial blast of horns ..." (23.23). "... the fruit of goodly trees" (23.40). EMOR EMOR "And the Lord said unto Moses: Speak unto the priests the sons of Aaron, and say unto them: There shall none defile himself for the dead among his people; except for his kin that is near unto him, for his mother, and for his father, and for his son, and for his daughter, and for his brother: and for his sister, a virgin They shall not take a woman that is a harlot, or profaned; neither shall they take a woman put away from her hus- band" (Leviticus 21.1-7). The high priest "shall take a wife in her virginity. A widow, or one divorced, or a profaned woman, or a harlot, these shall he not take" (Leviticus 21.13-14). No priest with a blemish might approach the altar to offer a sacrifice the impure priest might not even approach the holy food nor eat it. No animal with a blemish might be an offering. The seasons of the holy con- vocations are then described: "The seventh day is a sab- bath of solemn rest... ye shall do no manner of work.., In the first month, on the fourteenth day ... at dusk, it the Lord's passover ... on the fifteenth day of the same month is the feast of unleavened bread seven days ye shall eat unleavened bread" (Leviticus 23.3-6). The festival of the First Fruits (Shavuot) occurs on the fiftieth day after the first day of Passover. "In the seventh month, in the first day of the month, shall be a solemn rest unto you, a memorial proclaimed with the blast of horns, a holy convocation. Ye shall do no manner of servile work . Howbeit on the tenth day of this seventh month is the day of atonement and ye shall afflict your souls .., And ye shall do no manner of work in that same day: for it is a day of atonement, to make atonement for you before the Lord your God ... On the fifteenth day of this seventh month is the feast of tabernacles for seven days unto the Lord" (Leviticus 23.24-34). "And ye shall take you on the first day the fruit of goodly trees, branches of palm-trees, and boughs of thick trees, and willows of the brook, and ye shall rejoice before the Lord your God ... it is a statute for ever in your generations And Moses declared unto the children of Israel the appointed seasons of the Lord" (Leviticus 23.40-41.44).
