which liberating American troops
found in this German den of death
and brutality.
Mrs. Luce spared herself none of
the grisly spectacles, and said she
hoped the people Of the United

there.
She visited the basement crema-
forum where, in white walled
room, thousands had been hanged
from iron hooks.

Her prisoner guide told her how
the executioners used clubs shaped
like potato Washers to kill victims
who did not die quickly enough in
the moose.
She saw the elevator which car
ried the bodies upstairs to the
furnaces.
Outside the crematorium she saw
wagon stacked high with shriveled
bodies.
She did not remain long, saying
cts just too horrible"
In the barracks she saw prisoners
too weak to move from the TERED

Wonders About Good Germans.
"Only a few years ago some were
talking about there being good Ger

seeing this, one wonders whether
there is good in any German

Informed that newsreel camera

The colonel then asked truce for
the removal of both American and

agreed but asked the colonel him.

He appeared in full regaha. his

"a powerful magnet might have
pulled him out anyway"

putting themselves at his mercy but
trusting to his word of honor.
The colonel cited the military code
of the German Army and Greek
philosophers, upholding the position
that death is the only honorable
way out Col Knight countered each
argument, feeling a little like a
man blufing in { poker game. The
German held the ace in the hole

and ammunition to hold out four
weeks in the face of anything but
measures that would mean the death
of all the Americans within.
Threats With Courtesy.
Every time the glasses were empty,
the German filed them again. The
German emptied glass after glass.
The liquor did not seem to affect
him. The Americans, their heads
Keeling, realized they couldn't down
glass for glass as the colonel seemed
to think courtesy demanded. They
slowed down and finally even the
colonel grew a little thick tongued
and mellow.
Every threat and counterthreat
was made with cavalier courtesy.
Sir" said Col. Knight, eve shall
turn our flame throwers on this
vault and that will be the end"
Unfortunately" replied the colo
mel, that would be rather horrible
death for your own men"
1t was the same with threats of
artillery or establishment from the
air.
Every time the Americans reached
for their cigarettes the colonel re-
monstrated, Please, gentlemen" and
drew from his desk box of his own
Havana cigars.
The Colonel Loses Argument.
The Volkssturm general had told
Col. Knight that the colonels men
were by no means so philosophically
resigned to die. Only he held to the
Spartan code. The colonel must
have realized himself they might
overpoWer him in the end.

was overwhelming, since the Ger

brain, got the idea that he was REIN
carnation of the old hero, and per-
haps he wouldsbe honored likewise.
Besides, he was in deadly fear of
the Russians. Finally, as the bell
in the ancient church tower nearby
tolled two, he agreed to surrender.
He shook hands all around.
The colonel came out ahead on
the steps, still erect despite 10 hours
of steady drinking.

drummer wanted no neutrals gaining
access to concentration camps and.
when crossed, he was a dangerous
man.
During the days that followed,
had several more talks with Schel-
lenberg. He had had further con-
ferences with Himmler. He thought
Himmler and other leading Nazi
figures would soon leave for South
Germany. I advised Scheuenberg
to remain in North Germany so that
if necessary Scandinavian prisoners
could be removed rapidly to Sweden
Himmler, he told me, was still
talking about my going to Eisen-
hover. told Schellenberg that the
Allies would never enter into ne
gotiations with Himmler He could
only conceivably head the govern
ment during short transition Pc
riod.
I added that was prepared to
go to Eisenhower's headquarters on
the following conditions:
I. There must be an announce
ment from Himmler, that Hitler
compelled by illness to- give up his
powers-had chosen him to be the
leader of the German people.
II. Himmler must declare the
National Socialist Party dissolved,
and remove all party officials.
III. Himmler must order the ac-
tivity of the so-called Werewolves to
cease.
Accepting and carrying out these
conditions meant a revolution in
Germany. I did not imagine Hmm
Ter would accept these conditions,
but Schellenberg did not hesitate.
He told me he would try to induce
his chief to accept them.
BY April 10, Gen. Patton had
penetrated into Czechoslovakia.

resistance in Hamburg had been
crushed, and in Berlin the defense
was staggering before the Russian
assault. Hitler gave orders to shoot

ened by the chief of the Flensburg
Gestapo, on the telephone. Brig
adefuehrer Schellenberg wished to
speak to me about most urgent
matter. I was to go to Flensburg
in the day.
Schellenberg lost no time In let
ting off his bombshell: Hitler was
finished: it was thought that he
could not live more than a couple
of days at the outside.
"Himmler has decided to bring
about a meeting with Gen. Eisen-
hover to inform him that he is
willing to give orders to the Ger
man forces in the west to capitulate.
Would you be prepared to take this
message to Gen. Eisenhower"
I repeated the points I had made
earlier and it was arranged that
we should meet Himmler in Lubbock
