Eichmann Betties Initiative in Mass Murders (Continued from Page 1) come to more harm than good by this but the fact is that as far as my personal knowledge goes, I am truthful." He then pleaded innocent to Hausner's suggestion, add- ing that Hans Frank, the Nazi governor of Poland, had ordered his arrest because he tried to set up a Jewish en- clave in Poland. Hausner im- mediately asked for documen- tary proof which the defend- ant was unable to produce. Under questioning, he admit- ted the arrest order allegedly issued against him was never carried out. Eichmann insisted that while he believed a defendant was "entitled" to lie in his own de- fense, he did not apply this "principle" to himself. He said, "I am not fighting for my head. I only want the untruth that has gathered during the past 15 years" about his Gestapo career "to fall off and the real truth to be brought to light." The prosecutor questioned him at length regarding the plan to settle Jews on the French island of Madagascar for which he claimed credit. Hausner forced Eichmann to admit he had not originated the plan, pointing out that the idea had been mentioned in the savagely anti-Semitic "Der Stuerner" published by Julius Streicher, one of the most vio- lent of the Nazis, in January, 1938, months before Eidhmann claimed to have proposed it to his Nazi superiors. Hausner lost his temper at one stage when Eichmann in- sisted that Herzl had men- tioned Madagascar. He roared that Eichmann had no right to mention Herzl's name in his defense. Justice Moshe Landau, the presiding judge, rebuked the prosecutor. The justice said that the de- fendant "must be permitted to reply as he sees fit," however distasteful this might be. Lan- dau also moved to put an end to Hausner's pressing Eichmann on Herzl's misidentification with the Madagascar plan by point- ing out that it was Uganda a not Madagascar to w founder of Zionis once given consider Eichmann commented ptly that "yes, I definite -cal reading about Ugand ess began Tuesday m ng w about an 'hour of ussio by the *ud =-T atters c proce n fur testimo r S tius, the hie d 0 renewe the • tion the jurisdic rt in • REMEMBER- WON'T YOU?

The judges told the West German attorney that a court of appeal could ask for the testimony of the two El Al men if it wished, raising the possibility again of an appeal from any sentence the court imposed on Eichmann at the close of the trial. ServatiuS also asked for an appearance by a Netherlands attorney, Van Dalingen Dols. The attorney said that Dols allegedly knew that not Eich- mann, but SS Chief Heinrich Himmler had refused to allow the emigration of Prof. Maier, an eminent scientist, from Am- sterdam because the. Allies might have used his scientific knowledge against Germany. The court ruled that because of the shortage of time, a sworn statement would be asked from the Netherlands lawyer and that if this proved insufficient, he would be called. to Israe Eichmann admitted, under lentless cross-examination he knew Adolf Hitler h claimed his intent to nate the Jews "regar who wins the war." SLEEPLESS NIG Pale but calm and unr at Monday's session of his tn after the morning sitting was recessed because he claimed he had been ill and sleepless all night, the former Gestapo colo- nel also admitted that he came to Palestine in 1937 to confer with the anti-Jewish, former Grand Mufti. But, he insisted, reports that he had made de- rogatory remarks against Jews at the time were false. When court opened in the morning, Eichmann sent a note to his counsel, asserting that he was too weak to stand cross- examination. Following a 15- minute conference in chambers between the three judges and counsel for both sides, the re- cess was granted. Eichmann had said in his note that he had spent "a sleepless, depres- sive night." A police physician nfirmed the fact that the er had not slept all night. * * * Ex ining his. awareness of Hitle promise, early in World War I, that Jews 'would be ext mated, Eichmann said .t• at that time, "extermina- did not mean physical idation." In France and in ngland, he maintained, "we tried to reduce to zero our enemies' resistance, so that they would fade into oblivion—but not physical oblivion."

Eichmann explained this away as "only typical sol- diers' language," and insisted he forced rich Jews to sur- render property only as an aid toward financing of emigration of poor Jews. He admitted he had confis- cated remittances sent by Jews abroad but said that the money was used "to the last cent" to finance Jewish emigration.
