Rabbi Joachim Prinz, president of the American Jewish Congress and chairman of the Conference of Presidents of Major Jewish American Organizations, expressed “full confidence” here today in West German Chancellor Ludwig Erhard.
He made that statement following his conference yesterday with Dr. Erhard in which the German leader assured Dr. Prinz that the issue of the prosecution of major Nazi war criminals will be reconsidered and extended during the next four and a half years.
