Captors of Hess Tell Details
Of Actions and Talk After
Nazi Lands Near Glasgow
! GLASGOW, Scotland,,May 13-CT-Rudolf Hess told his cap
tors that he secretly fitted an extra gasoline tank to a warplane
and flew a bee-line from Augsburg, Germany, to Scotland with
; the route marked hi blue pencil on a map.
The story of the fjazl chief dep
uty's coldly calculated flight from
Adolf Hitler was related Tuesday
by two homeguardsmen who took
over Hess custody late Saturday
night after Hess parachuted onto
a Scottish field with an impact
felt 'round the world.
On him they found the map
with the blue-penciled Augsburg-to-Scotland
route, and a quantity
of compressed food.
The extra gasoline tank, fitted
to the Messerschmitt 110 so that
Hess could be certain he would
have enough gasoline for the trip,
was dropped in the sea as he
crossed the Scottish coast, Hess
related.
The home-guardsmen. Jack Patt
erson and Robert Gibson, related
also Hess story of how he tried to
land the plane the first Messer
gchmidt he ever had flown.
I "I circled over the spot where
I I finally parachuted for a long
: time." be said, "but In the dark-
ness. I could not see a soluble
I landing place.
Then I climbed several thou
' sand feet, threw the plane ever
; en Its back and switched off the
engine. Just as I was failing oat
switched en the engine and sent
' the plane hurtling to earth while
I fell clear."
He said nothing about , the ten
bullet holes found in the tail of
the wrecked planer-indicating he
either was fired upon by German
pursuers or caught in the gun
sights of British fighters. No such
action by British pilots had been
reported. j
Paterson said Hess was com
pletely calm; when he talked to
him; that he seemed more im
pressed by the availability of a
drink of milk than by his own
achievement, and that he gave his
drinking cup to bis guards as
souvenir.
The sturdy Scottish farmer, Dav
id McLean, who first approached
Hess with a pitchfork, and the
home guards to whom the farmer
delivered - him agreed that their
remarkable prisoner was a polite,
self-possessed fellow, and that
they did not at4he time learn he
was the No. 3 Nazi, making good
on an escape outrivalling penny
dreadful fiction. '
While Hess talked, Paterson
said, "we offered hint cigarettes,
bat he told ins be didn't smoke.
So when we asked him If he
wanted a glassLof milk he said
'Have yon got Mllkr as If snr4
prised that we had any.
"He drank half a glass, and
then remarked. 1 feel a bit

He referred to the blood purge.
Whatever Hess' qualities, Duff
Cooper went on, "his rather unex
pected arrival in this country as a
guest is by no means unwelcome."
An exultant press splashed such
phrases as these:
Lord Beaverbrook's Evening

"Millions of Germans were de

Other sources contended that
the Hess flight would be impossi
ble to explain to the German peo
ple and that the nazi story he was
insane would not be believed.
v "Crazy men don't fly planes 800
miles,' they said.
It was recalled that he had made
one of the principal speeches at
the Hitler birthday celebration
April 20.
Again and again, the press ham
mered away at the point that Hess
always had been considered the
embodiment of nazi faith, in the
fuehrer.
"He was," said the Standard,
"In one sense the original nasi."
