tons.
 He saw his first Speclally-eon. structed gas chamber ct Oswieciri, where he was put in command of one section of the camp, he said, The Oswiecim chamber was used on written orders of the camp commander, . man named HoeSS, he said,
 Although the gas chamber and crematoriumS were in my part of the camp" Kramer said, T had no Jurisdiction over 1t. The orders re- garding the gas chamber always were given by HoeSs and l was firmly convinced that he received them from Berlin
 Kramer said that if. he had been in Hoess' position, he, too, would have carried out the execution or- ders since any refusal would have meant his arrest.
 Excuses
 Y wondered myself whether such action really was right" Kramer confessed.
 As for the infamous Belsen camp which he later commanded, Kram- CT said that he did everything l could to remedy conditions"
 He said he did not think his SS stan would mistreat anybody be- cause he had issued specific orders against ili treatment of prisoners. Shooting began at Belsen only when Hungarian troops took over in the last few days before the arrival of British forces, he said.
 Volkenrath, in her affidavit, also tried to shift the blame for excesseS at Oswiecim to Hoess.
 T always was very strict, but l never murdered anyone" she said.
 The defense was expected to take three weeks to present it's case.

Politics
 M- 

wan, tho die is cast or should it NAs@the dice are cast, Republicans have completed their job of making nonnlnatlons for the l04S city elec- olon. m Raymond Svnder the party han turned to Q young man, c new conatr Co politics, but well-known Ca Waterbury through his business, 1raternal, and civic connections, Prominently identified with zindah ogotto for many years Mir, Snyder Co presently itB Monarch, AS he Is head Of the Llon's Club. He should ho able to wage Q good campaign ecr the COP, but the party faces many handlcaps, chief of which, npparently, iS Q willingness to be- pleve that the administration of Mayor John g. Monagan Is just an- othor group of political "sharpies", whereas Q good majority of citiSens aro convinced by the record that WaAerbury is getting something it always craved-good government. Tho wonder of it Is that the COP Town Committee could not have uoino up with MT. Snyder and his follow candidates, named at this weeks city convention, some time earlelP when their nominations would have been received with more enthusiasm, except of course, for the upsets on the Board Of Alder. men.
