Italy pushes Bonn to extradite Kappler for war crimes

Italy vows a formal demand to West Germany to extradite or at least supervise Nazi war criminal Herbert Kappler who escaped from a Rome hospital ten days ago. Prime Minister Andreotti seeks Bonn's cooperation though hopes for extradition fade. Kappler, 70, led Rome Gestapo and ordered mass killings in 1944 and is believed hiding near his wife’s home in Soltau.

Rights progress noted in 8. America under military rule

Assistant Secretary Todman reported progress toward improved human rights in four South American countries under military rule. He cautioned that each nation still has a long way to go, with dissident disappearances down but not erased and pressures mounting for greater political participation and liberalization. He cited Chile where disappearances fell from last year’s figure and noted church groups reporting about 700 disappearances since the coup, while warning about counting methods. Todman also said Secretary Vance plans no Brazil-only tour in October, with possible broader trips only if schedules allow.
