Red Cross Admits It Could Have Saved More Jews From Nazis TEL AVIV (JTA) - The . International Committee of the.Red Cross has admitted, in a special communication to the Jerusalem Post, that it could have saved more Jews from the Nazis. The statement, published in a recent edition of the Post, was issued in Geneva and signed by its director general, Jacques Moreillon. It was released especially for publication in the Post in response to a report by the Israeli daily's London correspondent, David Horowitz, published under the headline "Red Cross knew in '42 of massacre of Jews, but kept silent." The ICRC admits for the first time that it could probably have saved more Jewish lives than it did, particularly in countries where the Nazis did not maintain total control, such as Hungary and Romania. The Post reported that the ICRC itself hired Swiss Pro fessor Jean-Claude Favez to investigate the matter. Following a six-year study of 350,000 Red Cross documents, Favez'wrote, "The ICRC knew what was happening — that is quite clear; (But) it did not dare confront the Germans." The ICRC's failure to inspect Nazi concentration camps has bep reported before, including one inspection for which the Nazis propped up a false front at Theresienstadt, in Czechoslovakia. The camp was presented as having healthful conditions, and the Red Cross fulfilled the Nazi illusion by only visiting the camp's orchestra and carefully prepared children's facilities. Moreover, vans used by the Nazis for the mobile extermination of Jews were painted with a red cross''on the side, thereby leading people to believe that the (CONTINUED ON PAGE 10) COU7MBUS JEWISH IIMKA I10\ Sunday, September 18, 1988 • Beth Jacob Congregation • 7:30 p.m. m,
