Christmas trees and card
board cherubs still flanked the
doors of the Frankfurt city hall
where the defendants were be
ing tried in the coucil cham
ber, the only city facility big
enough for the trial.
The 22 men were charged
with participating in the mur
der of an estimated 2.5 to 4 mil
lion persons mostly Jews dur
ing World War II in the camp
at Auschwitz, Poland, now
known as Oswiecim.
Appear Nervous
Most of the defendants an
peared nervous when today's
session opened. Their hands fid
getcd and some had visibly
twitching muscles. Many gave
excuses of their conduct and
one did a little boasting.
"I was responsible for pre
venting escapes and while 1
held that job Auschwitz had the
lowest escape rate of all Ger
man camps," said Wilhelm
Bogcr, 50, the former Nazi Ges
tapo secret police agent de
scribed by the prosecution as
Die camp's crudest guard.
Boger said he felt sorry for
the inmates of Auschwitz, how
ever.
Robert Mulka, 68, a former
SS Elite Guard captain, told
the court that when he became
adjutant to commandant Rudolf
Hoess in 1942, "I did not know
it was an extermination camp
Hoess and two other former
Auchwitz commandants are
dead. On trial now are their
subordinates, the "little help
ers" of Hitler.
Karl Hoeckcr, 51, another
Hoess adjutant, said he served
at Auschwitz "only because a
knee injury kept me from serv
ice at the front."
More than. 250 witnesses from
15 nations have been called to
testify at the trial, which is ex
pected to last six to eight
months.
The three professional judges
and six lay judges waived the
reading of the full indictment,
which is four times as long as
the Bible.
The trial is the largest ever
stages by West Germans. In
1946, an international military
tribunal tried 22 top Nazis at
Nuernberg. It sentenced 12 to
death, 7 to prison terms and
acquitted 3.

APW Allocations
Near $7 Million
U. S. Rep. Robert B. Duncan
says the -,th District of Oregon
has received almost $7 million
this year under the Accelerated
Public Works program.
In a year-end report on fed
eral grants to Southwestern Or
egon, Duncan noted the quality
of the projects approved is "as
gratifying as the quantity we've
received."
Funds allocated to Douglas
County under the APW program
provided important road im
provements and recreation fa
cilities on lands administered
by the Forest Service and Bu
reau of Land Management.
Another project receiving a
federal allocation under APW is
the North Roseburg . Sanitary
District sewage treatment plant
expansion.
Duncan said the district has
benefited extensively from oth
er federal projects such as re
forestation. An example of this
is a recent contract awarded in
the Myrtle Creek area to refor
est 1,535 acres costing $41,575.
An estimated 3,600 man
months of work were provided
by the APW projects in the dis
trict. .
