Vatican agrees to probe
Hitler’s leading banker
LOS ANGELES —Vatican
officials have informed the Simon
W icsent hal Center of their plans to
investigate the alleged Nazi
background of Herman J. Abs, a
recently appointed member of the
Vatican bank's advisory board.
Moinsignor Jorge Mejia,
secretary of the Vatican
Commission for Religious
Relations with the Jews, informed
Rabbi Marvin Hier, dean of the
Wiesenthal Center, of the
Vatican’s action in a telephone
conversation on Jan. 5. In a
follow-up telegram, Mejia
confirmed his request that the
center mail documentation on
Herman Abs to assist in the
Vatican’s investigation.
Mejia told Rabbi Hier that
Vatican Secretary of State
Cardinal Agostino Casaroli will
head an investigation into the
charges made by Wiesenthal
Center officials against Abs', who
was chairman of the executive
board of Nazi Germany’s largest
financial institution, the Deutsche
Bank. The bank financed, among
other things, the I.G. Farben
rubber plant at Auschwitz, and
donated large sums of money
annually to the Adolf Hitler Fund
and Friends of Himmler Circle.
Other allegations to be
investigated will be Abs’ role while
serving on the advisory board of
the I.G. Farben chemical
conglomerate, which controlled
jointly with another banking
institution a company called
Degesch. Degesch enjoyed a
monopoly on the production of
Zyklon B gas and other toxic
chemicals used to systematically
exterminate millions of people
during World War ll.
The Wiesenthal Center has sent
a copy, as per the Vatican’s
request, of the 330-page U.S.
military report on the Deutsche
Bank, published in 1946, which
was a primary source used by the
center in confirming Abs’
significant role as Hitler’s leading
banker from 1940-45. Wiesenthal
Center officials presented key
portions of that report and other
relevant documentation when they
demanded Abs’ resignation at a
news conference on Dec. 29.
Following his conversation with
Monsignor Mejia, Rabbi Hier said
the Vatican considers the
allegations against Abs “a serious
matter”
Prior to the press conference,
Vatican officials were informed of
the center’s evidence, but Rome
had initially declined to comment
on the allegations raised.
Foreign affairs experts
differ on Hussein's role
by David Friedman
WASHINGTON (JTA)—Two
foreign affairs experts differed this
week on whether the United States
can expect King Hussein of Jordan
to join the Middle East peace
process.
Richard Allen, who was
President Reagan's first national
security adviser, and Edward
Luttwak, a senior fellow at
Georgetown University's Center
for Strategic and International
Studies, presented their opposing
views during a round-table
discussion on “Looking Ahead in
the Middle East," sponsored by the
Heritage Foundation at the
University Club here.
“1 feel that Jordan has come a
long way and ,js moving in the right
direction,” Allen said. He said
Hussein’s meetings with Reagan at
the White House last month were
“productive."
Hussein
Allen, now a distinguished
fellow at the Heritage Foundation
and a senior foreign policy counsel
for the Republican National
Committee, said he believes that
Hussein realizes that the U.S. is an
“important guarantor” of his and
his country’s security and
continuing supply of arms.
But Luttwak disagreed, saying
he admired Hussein because of his
“ability to attract the attention of
successive foreign suitors without
actually ever delivering anything."
He listed these suitors as first the
British, then the Israel Labor Party,
and now the U.S.
“I can’t be hopeful, I can’t *ee
him delivering," he said. “If he does,
it will be a real departure of
character.” '
As for Israeli Prime Minister
Menachem Begin, Allen predicted
a “difficult" meeting when the
Israeli leader sees Reagan at the
White House next month. He said
the president should reaffirm the
U.S. relationship with Israel and
stress that the U.S. still considers it a
“strategic ally” and an “asset."
Allen said Reagan should also
