NEW YORK, May 1—A Pitts- burgh group offered today to pay a million-dollar reward for the capture of Adolf Hitler, unhurt, but specified that the Germ~n Fuehrer must be delivered into the custody of the League of Nations before the end of May. > Samuel gxden Church, president of the $28,000,000 Carnegie Institute, announced the offer on behalf of an unnamed group, which he said was acting “in good faith,” in a letter to the New York Times. The unusual proposal brought back recollections of a daring post-World ‘War scheme of a group of American soldiers to kidnap the German Kaiser from his refuge in Holland. Would Be Tried for “Crimes.” In his letter, Mr. Church said that Hitler should be delivered “for trial before a high court of justice for his crimes against the peace and dignity of the world.” Mr. Church said in a telephone in- terview with the Times that the proposal had been discussed for some time among some members of the Duquesne Club of Pittsburgh after private advices reached them saying Hitler planned an attempt to break through on the western front | Shortly after the armistice of 191 a band of Americans who had served | with the A.

He added that he considered it unwise to attempt | to deliver Hitler to the league's seat at Geneva, in the event of capture, because the Reich's army would overrun Switzerland. “The proper goal would be Eng- land.” he said. *“But the question of trial would be too big for Grea Britain or any other one country.

Mr. Church made the offer in | behalf of a group of Pittsburgh | residents. | Officials declined to comment | openly on whether the reward offer | directly’ involved any sections of | the proclamation, but there were various ones which they said might | bear upon the situgtion. They explained, for instance, that | the proclamation (issued September 5) declared that “the laws and trea- ties of the United States, without interfering with the free expression | of opinion and sympathy, never- theless impose upon all persons who may be within their territory and | jurisdiction the duty of an im partial neutrality during the exist. ence of the contest.” Citizens also were directed by the | proclamation to “remain at peace with all of the said*® belligerents' (Germany and the allies) and to “maintain a strict and impartial | neutrality.” DON'T MISS IT!
