The ChanceUor met with Dr. Wexler here. Dr. Wexler later' told the Jewish Telegraphic Agency that the ChanceUor had cited a recent poll indicating that conttaued prosecution of Nazi war criminals was favored fay 58 percent of the German people and fay 38 percent of the rightist National Democratic party. Postponement of the ef- , fective date of the limitations law would require ParUamentary legislation.

BY DAVID HOROWITZ UNITED NATIONS, (WUP) —Accordtag to a reliable 'source close to the Pent¬ agon, the U. S. Liberty— which was attacked and dam¬ aged on June 8 fay Israeli torpedo boats some ISmUes off the coast of the Slnal Pentasula—had secret or¬ ders to report to. the Sixth Fleet on any possible dan¬ gers facing the existence of Israel durtag the massive Arab mUitary buUdrUB aim¬ ed at the annlhUatlon of the Jewish State which at the tlm'e seemed a near possib¬ Uity. Had the situation looked 'dlsfavorable to IsraeU-flie source revealed, the Sixth Fleet with its air power would have tatervencd and , prevented a second holocaust ' and mass slaughter ta our times, even at-, the-risk of tacurrlng Soviet taterven- tion. THE U.S. position would have been presented as being justifiable on the strength of its announced policy of the necessity of coming to the Immedtate aid of any State ta the area faced fay aggression of another State. It is true that the Liberty, a communications vessel, did intercept messages', but iiot for the purpose of "prov¬ ing" that Israel had started the war, as some Hsraell circles matatained. On the contrary, its mata jjurpgse.. for its presence so close to the war zone was to make sure that Israel would sur¬ vive. THE SOURCE ftnrther dis¬ closed that it was upon the direct orders of President Johnson—who was concern¬ ed over Israel's survival- that the ^Liberty was sent to the Slnal Coast and that the .Sixth Fleet be alerted fipr action.. - i The White ) House , move ta June 1967 was likened to the lato President Kennedy's naval operation during the 1961 Cuban crisis over th^' USSR missUes. m THE llghtof these facts, the source noted, the Israeli attack on the vessel wUl go down ta history asthegreat- cst blunder over committed fay the reborn nation. Prisoners Are Sent Home W ith Messoge TEL AVIV, (JTA)'— Defense Minister Moshe Dayan naid a surprise visit to the prisoner-of-war camp atJV^it and told 100 Egyptian officers, tacluding four generals, who are being repatriate^ that Israel wants to exist peaceful!^ as a Jewish state among Arab states but wiU always fight back If attacked. He said he wanted the Egyptian'-sOldlers, vibo were captured ta last June's Six Day War, to return home with the message that * Israelis want peace and co- r ^ m ¦ existence. Af1| A||n||fll Gen.

"Now we have a state and the question is whether this state can exist , here." "1 SAY yes," 'Gen Dayan told the Egyptian officers. "We consider ourselves part of the Jewish world, just as Jacob G.
