The Nuremberg
In justice or
by Eric Moonmin, M.P.
Were the Allies right to provide
a public trial (or the Nazi War
Criminals at Nuremberg? This
disturbing question is again
brought to the surface by Airey
Neave’s astonishing new book,
"Nuremberg ”
Sir Winston Churchill, Anthony
Eden and other members of his
war cabinet were inclined towards
a summary execution of the 21 top
Nazis. 1 am glad they were
overruled by the American and
Russian leaders. As Rebecca West

says in the foreword: “The
Nuremberg trial was conceived in
hatred of war and it was nurtured
by those of peace."
The trial was not a perfect
instrument. How could it be? It
had to deal with new crimes for
which there was no provision in
national law or international law
The judges were themselves not of
the same legal background and
found it hard to agree and the
hearings were often incomprehen
sible
Airey Neave then was given a
remarkable opportunity. He spoke
German, he had been captured by
the Nazis, he knew of their
interrogation methods, he had
been brought to Colditz. His
incredible escape from that
fortress, just prior to his dispatch
to an extermination center, has
already been written about—but at
the age of 29 he was able to serve
the Allies in the prepartions of the
indictments against the top Nazis
awaiting trial at Nuremberg jail.
This is not a bitter, violent book
in the manner of Lord Russell's
“Scourge of the Swastika." It is
educative and revealing. Thus
through the trial and Neave’s visits
to the prison, we pursue the
relationship between the 21 men

and hysterical. Lawyers were
‘traitors to the nation,’ ‘idiots’
and ’utter fools.’ On April 26,
I942, he said to the Reichstag
that he ‘would not rest until
every German sees it is a
disgrace to be a lawyer.’ Frank
had something of the
bumptiousness and grandilo
quence of a Nazi buzfuz but he
must have winced when Hitler
roared, ‘There is no one to
whom the lawyer is closer than
to the criminal.’”
Frank lives in a dream world,
pretending that those principles of
law were actually in force in Nazi
Germany which, he knew, had
been abandoned in I933.
And what of Julius Streicher,
soon to become known as the
Beast of Nuremberg? His sexual
habits in prison were openly
discussed by the press and in court,
“he liked to expose himself like an
animal in a cage at the zoo.”
The Nazi war machine was
dependent on the factory owners
as well as the fear created by the
SS. A fascinating chapter deals
with the attempts by Neave and his
team to prepare evidence against
the Krupp fan ly. The Krupp’s
empire produced guns, tanks, and
U-boats and brought victory to

and Hitler. Take Hans Frank.
From 1939 to 1945 he ruled as
Governor General of Poland He
had a menacing record. Although
Hitler abused him he adored his
master: —
“He demanded ‘only one
jurisdiction—the Fuhrer’s.’ The
truth is that after his accession
to power, Hitler had no use for
Frank or indeed any other
lawyer. Despite his adultation,
Frank was never again invited
to discuss legal matters with
him. As the years went by.
Hitler’s attitude to lawyers
became increasingly violent
Hitler in the West But that was not
the basis of the indictment. Krupp
had used slave labor. They had on
the premises women and children
brutally transported from
Romania and Hungary where they
were penned in at night by SS
guards and barbed wire. They were
marched to the factory in that last
winter of the war, their legs blue
with cold and scarred by frostbite
They lived on a slice of bread and a
bowl of watery soup. At the trial of
Alfred Krupp it was proved that
they were horse-whipped
And what was the Krupp trial? It
lasted from August 16, 1947 until
