events and to give the other gentlemen an opportunity to inform themselves of what Mr. Seebohm could tell them?

A. Yes.

Q. If you had any political convictions or assumptions at the time, were they founded only upon combinations or conclusions, or were these ideas founded upon definite instructions and plans from authorities?

A. They were founded only upon conclusions, Dr. von Keller —

Q. Thank you. I believe that is enough.

A. but also upon intelligence which I read in the German and foreign press, especially the English and American press.

Q. Thank you very much. You made a statement about this meeting in writing, and in it there is a paragraph which is entitled “Suggestions,” isn't that correct?

A. Yes.

Q. This statement was turned over to the Commercial Committee?

A. I remember that at the next meeting of the Commercial Committee I took it along with me; that is correct.

Q. Did the Commercial Committee take any action after they saw this paper?

A. I cannot say at the moment. I would have to look into the records.

Q. You cannot remember?

A. The record was given to the gentlemen in the Commercial Committee. Whether they discussed it in detail, I do not remember.

Q. But do you remember any steps that were taken by the Commercial Committee?

A. I have already said that either before or after this meeting, the Commercial Committee decided not to neglect the Sudeten-German press, but to support it.

Q. But these are the only measures that you remember.

A. That is a measure that I remember now, concretely.

Q. Did Farben in its entirety — that is to say, the Vorstand — initiate any action as a result of this?

A. I don't know.

DR. VON KELLER: I have no further questions.
