talked for three hours. He said
his appearance on the stand was
voluntary.
Colepaugh's story was that Of a
military and naval minded youth
who failed to get into the U. S.
Naval Academy, was discharged
from the U. S. Navy, and went to
Germany to join the army.
What he did after that was I'M
told when the court took a recess
until 9 am. Monday. There is in
evidence against him a statement
the F. B. I. said they took from
him in which he admitted COM
ing to this county with Gimpel
aboard a submarine to get infor-
nation on ships, airplanes n d
rockets, for transmission by radio
to the German Reict.
The prosecution rested its case
at the outset of the fifth days ses-

moved to acquit him of the most
serious charge of the thre agains

Colepaugh took the Stanq.

He invited us to 60 up a small

Asked if there would be any
ceremony attached to his becoming
prisoner, such as giving UP his
sword, he said:

No Complaints.
Gen. Lindemann said he had no
complaint about how the Danish
forces and 1000 British troops had
acted during the evacuation.
What difficulties there were were
unimportant," he said.
He made no reference to public
Danish demands for his listing as a
war criminal" to be tried for hav-
ing ordered terror executions" of
patriots since he took command in
Denmark last February.
But he made it plain he considered
a soldier, to be treated &C

GERMAN SUPREME HEAD
QUARTERS, SILKEBORG, Den
mark, June Delayed Col. Gen
Georg Lindemann, highest German
officer still protected by his owl
machine guns, said today the evac.
uation of the German garrison army
from Denmark will be completed
according to plan by June IS anc
then I shall follow my men-intc
imprisonment"
THE future of Germany" he said
depends upon the Allied Contro
Commission. I have no message
either for German troops or the civil
population at this time"
Within the fantastic setting of ar
idyllic Danish lakeside resort ringec
by barbed wire and mines with Ger
man tommygunners standing 24-houl
watches at the single entrance, the
commander in chief of the largest
existing enemy force held his first
press interview.
Air Power Won War.
Asked to name as "a matter OF
historical interest" the reason Ger
many lost the World War, Gen
Lindemann glared for a moment
then replied: Allied air superiority.
To a question as to whether inter-
ference in the German general staff
by the Nazi party had contributed
to Germany's defeat, he compressed
his thin lips and said:
Il am unable to discuss that. I
have never been a member of any
political party in my life"
He looked over vase of lilacs on
his desk at his chief of staff, Maj.
Gen. Helmut Reinhardt and his po-
litical adviser, Maj. Horst Mueller,
a former professor of history and
Jurisprudence at Frieburg Univer-
sity and his interpreter, Capt. Fritz
Lembcke.
NO German officer in this room
was member of the Nazi party"
he scowled
Gen. Lindemann was impeccably
dressed in high black boots and a
field gray uniform that fitted like
q glove. Above his high collar,
decorated with red flashes and
golden oak leaves, his face was
cherry colored as if by chronic apop-
lexy. His temples were high cropped,
leaving only hint of silver in his
hair, despite his age Of 81.
Discusses Family.
His steely reserve melted only
orce-at the mention of his family.
My wife is at Radstadt by Salz-
burg in Southern Germany" he said.
as he took out an envelope and
referred to an address before con-
tinuing.
MY two daughters are in BIumen-
burg near Potsdam.'
He breathed half sigh as he
said:
Yes I know My family is di-
vided between the Russian and AL
lied occupation zones"
He refused to say what effect the
Gsrnan losses on the eastern front
had of1'ttSsas or -Wehrmacht.
