“b) Germany will designate, as before, a defense counsel and an interpreter. . . .


“c) In case of a death sentence an adequate respite will be granted.”

On top of Page 13:

“In this respect, in urgent cases, however, Germany must reserve for herself the right—even if not expressly stated—to execute the sentence immediately.”

Third paragraph:

“There is no question of allowing France, by virtue of Article 62, Paragraph III (POW), of the Geneva Convention, to delegate representatives to the chief sessions of the German Military Tribunals.”

We possess an example of the violation of Articles 60 and those following of the Geneva Convention in the report of the Netherlands Government, which the Tribunal will find on Page 14 of its document book.

THE PRESIDENT: I think we better break off now.

[The Tribunal recessed until 1400 hours.]
