No Atonement For Eichmann
JERUSALEM Chief Israeli prosecutor Gideon Hausner
told an impassive Adolf Eichmann Wednesday there can be
no atonement, no forgiveness and no forgetting the man who
tried to exterminate the Jewish people.
Hausner, in a nine-hour speech, rejected a plea by Eich
mann's German lawyer Robert Servatius that Israel has no
right to try the one-time SS colonel because the court is biased
and its operations illegal.
The trial is both moral and legal, Hausner said, adding
that if Israel did not try Eichmann the greatest mass murderer
in history might go scot free.
"I request that this court decide its authority to sit in
judgment for these crimes," he said.
Eichmann peered owlishly through his heavy horn-rimmed
glasses from the bullet-proof glass prisoner's dock as Hausner
unleashed his legal arguments designed to prove the Israeli
court's right to hear the case against a man accused of mur
dering six million Jews.
The court does not sit Thursday. Thursday is the day when
Israel commemorates the slaughter of those six million Jews
by the Nazis. It is "Holocaust Day," inaugurated by a two
minute silence at 8 a.m.
Welch Denounced In Senate
WASHINGTON Robert Welch, head of the controversial
John Birch Society, was denounced on the Senate floor Wed
nesday fo rsuggesting the Protestant clergy has been infil
trated by Communists.
Sen. Hale McGee, D-Wyo., told the Senate that Welch's
latest charge was a "slurring" attack which was both "ridicu
lous" and an. aid to Communist propaganda. McGee termed
members of the conservative society "twisted, distorted, sick
people" who he said are "afraid of new ideas, afraid of free
dom." ".
'Conservatives' To Meet

Society said Wednesday night a three-day "convention of con

1 ;r: ' BY HENRY SHAPIRO
: V v , United Press Iniernaiional
V 1 Mb$COWr-Russia won the man-in-space race today by shooting a young air force
officer around the. world in a space ship and bringing him back alive.
; , The, Soviet Union announced that Maj. Yrui Gagarin, 27-year-old father of two
children; had orbited the c earth in a five-ton space ship on a flight that took an hour
and 48 minutes.
In that brief span, hardly more than the time of a train trip from New York to
Philadelphia, man broke the barrier to space travel and raced closer to the eventual
goal of flights to other planets.
' - A noted1 British scientist called the flight the "greatest scientific achievement in
the history of man."
Soviet Premier Nikita
Khrushchev messaged Gagarin:
"The entire world admires your
deed, which will be remembered
down the centuries as an ex
ample of courage, gallantry, and
heroism " in the name of service
to mankind.": i ; -
President Kennedy in Wash
ington said: "The achievement
by the U.S.S.R. in orbiting a
man and returning him safely
to the ground is an outstanding
technical accomplishment. We
congratulate the Soviet scien
tists and engineers-who made
this feat possible."
A leading Soviet scientist
likened the space feat to the
accomplishment : of the Wright
brothers, in flying the first air
plane. The first space man himself
was quoted , by Moscow radio as
saying "The realization of flight
into space opens up grandiose
prospects in the conquest of
space by mankind."
The epi c flight was made
while the United States appar
ently was still weeks away from
putting its first man into space
and months from shooting him
into orbit around! the earth.
. ' As, the news spread through
Moscow crowds swarmed into
the . streets in the " wildest dis
play of . jubilation seen here
since Nazi Germany collapsed
on May 8, 1945. Celebrants
paraaea tnrougn the main
streets, children were dismissed
from school,, radios and televi
sion sets proclaimed - the news
over and over. Snow that had

At the time of Yuri's birth
on March 9, 1934, the Gagarins
were living on a collective farm.
Yuri began his education in the
district school in 1941 at the
age of seven. But then the Nazis
came and the boy's schooling
was interrupted until after the
war.
Yuri was a good student, ac
cording to the records, and in
1951- finished secondary high
school, graduating "with dis
tinction."
The spaccman-to-be then at
tended a vocational school
where he qualified as a moulder
and foundryman. He was ambi
tious and hard-working, as evi
denced by the fact that he si
multaneously attended an eve
ning school, then enrolled as a
student at a technical school at
Saratov.
Flying Lessons
While still attending the
Saratov school, Gagarin joined
the Saratov aeroclub and began
taking flying lessons. With his
technical degree in his pocket,
he headed for Orenburg in the
Ural Mountains and entered a
Soviet Air Force school.
In" Orenburg he met a young
woman medical student, Valen-
tina, now 26, whom he later
married. The second of their
two daughters was born only
a month ago, while he was in
the midst of the final stages of
his astronaut training. The baby
was named Galya. Their other
child, Yelena, is aged two.
