Lord Justice Lawrence Reads Summary
Of Military Tribunal's Findings
Evidence Quite Overwhelming
The eyes of the world will be turned today to Nuernberg, where the International Military Tribunal will. at last bring to an end the greatest War Trial in history, After 13 months of questions and answers, examina- tions and cross-examinations, Lord Justice Lawrence yesterday began to read the find- ings of the Tribunal.
None of the defendants were specifically mon- tioned by name in the first part of the judg- ment delivered yesterday, though an ex- amination indicates very strongly that at least 22 of Hitler's lieutenants will be found "Guilty" when final judgment is pronounced late today.
Of the seven German organizations on trial, the
Court has acquitted three-the German Gen-
cral Stall and High Command; the "Brown
Shirts" and the Reich Cabinet-and found four guilty. Despite the acquittal, members of these groups may still be prosecuted for in- dividual war crimes.

What U.S.N.
Is Doing In "The Med"
OFF HONG KONG
(By Naval Reporter Dave Hençox)
Six Filipino seamen, feared dead following the dis appearance of their motor boat during a ty phoon, have been rescued by a British ship and landed in Hong Kong after they had spent seven days adrift in heavy seas living on bis- cults and water. The men were the crew of an American Patrol Torpedo Boat which was located 150 miles off its route by H.M. Hospital Ship Tairea on Sat- urday afternoon. The typhoon which had en- dangered the lives of the Filipinos also caused their fescue--if HMHS Tairea had not diverted from its proper course in order to avoid the bad weather it would not have sighted the helpless' craft.
