Seventeen organizations, including the Union of Jewish Deportees of Belgian Citizenship and the Federation of Belgian Jewish Youth, participated in a meeting here today commemorating the 18th anniversary of the Warsaw Ghetto Revolt. Among the speakers was State Minister Henri Rolin, an eminent Belgian jurist, and authority on international law. He criticized those who, in judging the conduct of the Eichmann trial, “could hesitate between some subtlety of proceedings and the obvious necessity of giving exemplary punishment to a criminal of such dimension.”
