MR. JUSTICE JACKSON: I object to this question being put.
THE PRESIDENT: He has already told us about that. He answered that question more than once.
DR. STAHMER: In that case, I have no further questions to ask.
THE PRESIDENT: Very well. Then the defendant can retire.
[The defendant left the stand.]
THE PRESIDENT: Yes, Dr. Stahmer.
DR. STAHMER: May I first of all give a short review of the present stage of the Trial so that the Tribunal can see what the list of witnesses still granted to me is like now. I was going to forego Dr. Lohse.
THE PRESIDENT: Dr. Lohse, did you say?
DR. STAHMER: Yes, I abstain from calling Dr. Lohse, because the defendant has in my opinion already made sufficient statements on that subject. Furthermore, I had been granted Ambassador Dr. Paul Schmidt as a witness. That witness, of whom I want to ask a few questions only, I should like to hear later, subsequent to his examination by the Defendant Ribbentrop, because he will have to answer a wide range of questions during that examination, and it appears to me appropriate if I ask him subsequent to that—which is also in accord with the wish of Dr. Horn—if the Tribunal will agree to that procedure, the witness Koller . . .
THE PRESIDENT: Certainly.
