Scope and Content

The file is an "as it happened" telex by Arye Wallenstein, reporter, to Reuters London from Jerusalem, about the Israeli Supreme Court delivering judgement on Adolf Eichmann's appeal against his conviction and death sentence. It quotes reactions from Judges, the content of the verdict and the reaction of the defense and the defendant. The second telex refers to Israel's president rejecting Eichmann's plea for reprieve and the offical announcement. The third telex gives a summary of the execution, people present, physical examination and cremation.
