THE PRESIDENT: Then the witness may retire.
[_The witness left the stand._]
M. DUBOST: If the Tribunal will kindly allow it, we shall now hear
another witness, M. Veith.
THE PRESIDENT: Are you calling this witness on the treatment of
prisoners in concentration camps?
M. DUBOST: Yes, Mr. President, and also because this witness can give us
particulars of the ill-treatment to which certain prisoners of war had
been exposed in the camps of internees. This is no longer a question of
concentration camps and of ill-treatment inflicted upon civilians in
those camps, but of soldiers who had been brought to the concentration
camps and subjected to the same cruelty as the civilian prisoners.
THE PRESIDENT: Well, you won’t lose sight of the fact that there has
been practically no cross-examination of the witnesses you have already
called about the treatment in concentration camps? The Tribunal, I
think, feels that you could deal with the treatment in concentration
camps somewhat more generally than the last witness. Do you hear what I
say?
