DR. KAUFFMANN: Kaltenbrunner was called the successor of Heydrich. Does this apply to him in the full sense of the word?
NEUBACHER: It cannot, and that I know because...
THE PRESIDENT: That’s a matter of argument. This witness’ opinion cannot affect the position of Kaltenbrunner. This witness cannot testify whether he was called a successor to Heydrich or another Heydrich.

THE PRESIDENT: The witness has already admitted that he was the successor of Heydrich. You may ask him if he was another Heydrich.
DR. KAUFFMANN: Please, will you tell whether he was called a second Heydrich?
NEUBACHER: Himmler himself used this expression...
THE PRESIDENT: The Tribunal feels that that is incompetent.
DR. KAUFFMANN: I understand. I now come to the next question:
Is there anything to show just why Himmler selected the Defendant Kaltenbrunner?
