of the Policy of Leipzig. Dr. Ding had the drug R
17 and the incendiary bomb collected.
"I also know that Ding made a report on his experiments. 1 know this
because Dr. Ding asked my office in Dresden several times, in writing and by
telephone, if they had this report, as he could not find it. It was supposed to
be a report with photographs. I do not know if the report went through my
office, as I was in Dresden only one day a week. At the time when Ding was
looking for the report it was not in my office. I assume, therefore, that he
sent it direct to the firm of Madaus, as they were interested in the results of
his test.
"When, after a considerable time, I still had not heard from the Reich
Physician whether the drug R 17 was to be made known to the air-raid precaution
dispensaries, I asked the Reich Physician about it at a meeting. He then
declared that the drug would not be introduced, as it only possessed
phosphorous-dissolving properties, but did not directly contribute to the
healing of the burns. however, a drug was in preparation elsewhere that
combined both qualities and this would be introduced."
I submit farther the last paragraph of Dr. Morgan's affidavit.
(Mrugowsky 23, Mrugowsky Ex. 26.) Dr. Morgen says here:
"While I was making observations in
Block 46 I paid repeated surprise visits in order to inspect the running of the
Block. Once, when I paid a surprise visit to Block 46, examinations on the
treatment of wounds caused by phosphorus incendiaries were being carried out.
"As I arrived a big strong prisoner came into the room laughing. On each
of his two upper arms there were applied on a space about 1 centimeter wide and
5 centimeters long, some parts of the contents of a phosphorus incendiary bomb.
These spots on both upper arms were treated with various ointments. During the
discussion with Dr. Ding I was informed that the experimental persons
volunteered for the experiment. They received the diet for sick persons, a
packet of cigarettes, and for one month they did not have to work. In the case
of the inmate whose treatment I witnessed by chance, I had the definite
impression that he was a volunteer."
