They will rule this city." "No," said Kaiser, "on, uoa, no. It was not true, of course, bui Kaiser could not know that, or he sure of It. The thought evi dently cut like a whip and the Americans let the Nazi think it over. Kaiser admitted instantly tnat he was a party member, but he had explanations and excuses.

"Yes, I knew of concentration camps," Breitenmoser replied to questions. "But 1 was surprised to hear they were so bad. Unfor tunately, I must believe what you say about them is true." "Were you a party member?" "My God, no." "Do you know the Russians are coming here?" Breitenmoser'g face fell. He gulped at his beer and splut tered: "Oh, oh. I would rather have the Americans or British." Breitenmoser said he knew nothing of German atrocities against Russians but that he knew of Russian atrocities against Germans. Neither Breitenmoser nor Scherer had heard the Nazi story that New York, Washing ton and Chicago had been bombed. They were poor little men and they were very unhappy as they sat in the shabby restaurant with the ruin of their country about them.
