No. 2 War Criminal (Washington Post) Hermann Goering, dispatches say, was visibly relieved when officers of the American Seventh Army rrived at the Reichsmarshal’s Austrian hideout to ke him into custody. If the treatment he received at the hands of his captors is any indication of what he can expect, his relief was not justified. His captors | treated him as an honored prisoner of war. They shook hands with him. They exchanged small talk with him. They lunched with him. All this may be |in line with military etiquette. But it will leave a stench in the nostrils of most Americans. It is an insult to our honored dead and to their families. Newspaper No Nazi leader, with the sole possible exceptions of Hitler i Himmler, has such a brutal and blood- thirsty record as Hermann Goering. The organizer of the SS.

Mayor J. J. Connors, who had been South on business, was to arrive the next day on the Princess Mary. Leila Ptack left Seattle on the Yukon, returning to her Juneau home.
