A resolution condemning Soviet anti-Semitism was adopted here last night by the B’nai B’rith Anti-Defamation League, which concluded its 52nd annual meeting here.
In another resolution, the ADL called on the West German Government to extend its statute of limitations on the prosecution of Nazi war criminals beyond the present cut-off date of May 8, 1965. Noting that no such statute of limitations on murder charges exists in the United States, the League requested that Bonn set aside its statute “on the crimes of murder and genocide.”
