ters bulldlnj. They were not per
mitted to tour the camp, where
German press accounts hare said
many German political prisoners
are confined.
Ma. Alexel Kostuchtn. Soviet
commandant, said he could not
answer questions about the camp's
population "because I am chief only
of the war prisoners held here."
(Berlin's social democratic party

Sachsenhausen was one of 13 large
"concentration camps," in the Soviet
aone holding many German social
democrats and others considered
"undesirable" by the Soviet-sponsored
socialist unity party.)

military courts for the shooting of
more than 87,000 Soviet clrteens, in
cluding women and babies, during
the nasi occupation of Soviet terri
tory. The prisoners received sentences
of IS to 25 years in labor camps.
Their trial was held after the aboli
tion of the death sentence In Soviet
courts.
The prisoners, in the presence of
Russian authorities, said they had
been sentenced after a two-day
trial. They said they were not given
defense counsel but were permitted
to make a "personal closing plea."
Bruno Fuchs, 48, accused of per
sonally killing 1307 personst said, "I
think it was nearer 800."
Another prisoner. Herbert Men
sel, said he was g!ad to get off with
his life but added, "after I heard
some of the Nuernberg war crim
inals got off with 10 to 15 years I
thought my 25-year sentence was
harsh."

the vast crowd leans forward with
all eyes on the little band of 1st
Century Christians who move
ahead to meet death, singing the
martyr's song "Good-bye, I'll
meet you in the morning."
In dash the big cats African
lions made hungry for that hour.
The Good-Bye song dies out under
the tearing of flesh, the crunching
of bones and the snarl of the
brutes as they fight over the last
shred.
