PLOTTED TO KILL EISENHOWER

Lt. General Otto Skorzeny, 6 ft. 4 in., scar-faced SS killer, has been captured during the latest round-up of war criminals. It was Skorzeny who, on Hitler’s orders, rescued Mussolini from captivity and who had plotted to kill General Eisenhower, Supreme Allied Commander. He is reputed to be the most ruthless of all German SS killers.
