Hans Krug Like Hunted
Animal, Witness Testifies
In Trial of Stephan.
Br Paul Chandler
Detroit, July 1 (R Ober
, leutnant Hans Peter Krug, the
German luftwaffe officer who
escaped from a Canadian prison
camp, came to Detroit dirty,
ragged, "like a hunted animal,"
and met Max Stephan, the
German-born restaurant owner
charged with committing trea
son for aiding Krug in his flight.
Such was the description given
In federal court today by Mrs.
Margaretta Johanna Bertelmann,
a German alien to whose apart
ment the Nazi fugitive first went
for help after crossing the De
troit river in a rowboat April 18.
No charges have been placed
against her.
Nervous and testifying in a
high voice, Mrs. Bertelmann
broke into sobs when she ad
mitted that she was not a citizen
of the United States and once
bad been called before the U. S.
enemy alien hearing board.
'The doorbell rang that morn
ing and When I answered here
was a ragged stranger asking
if I had any carpenter work he
could do," Mrs. Bertelmann tes
tified. (
'He asked if he could have
a drink. He said he was terribly
thirsty. I invited him in and
be talked in German and told
me he had come from the Bow
manville (Ont.) camp.
" 'You mean you are a Ger
man prisoner, I asked.
"He said 'yes.' I felt faint.
"You shouldn't have come.' I
said you can't stay here.
Like Animal
"And he just stood there look
ing at me dirty, scared, and
like a frightened animal."
Mrs. Bertelmann said she then
telephoned Stephan, who arriv
ed at her house a few minutes
later.
" 'Go out into the kitchen' I
told Max," she continued. 'Why,
you are shaking,' he said:
What's wrong?" " There's a pris
oner of war out there, I told
him.
"When Stephan saw him he
said Why don t you give up,
you haven't got a chance?' "
Upon questioning by Judge
Arthur Tuttle, Mrs. Bertelmann
revealed that sha had bought
tobacco and knitted sweaters,
scarfs, and sox and had been
sending them to Ontario prison
camps for many months. She
said Krug had seen her name on
these packages.
Krug himself returned to
court today so that witnesses
could Identify him.
