THE PRESIDENT: I was just wondering where these terms were used.
DR. KAUFFMANN: The Indictment contains both these terms: “hungry for power” and “cruel”.
THE TRIBUNAL (Mr. Biddle): It certainly is not in the Indictment. We find no allegation in the Indictment which reads “hungry for power and cruel,” and we do not recollect any mention being made in the statement in the Prosecution’s case.
DR. KAUFFMANN: But I would not have had notes taken on it otherwise. In the Indictment there is a page with the heading “Summary and Conclusion.” I am referring to the last paragraph, where it says:

THE PRESIDENT: Where are you reading from? What are you reading from?
DR. KAUFFMANN: From the Indictment, on the last page, under the heading “Summary and Conclusion.”

DR. KAUFFMANN: If that will not be maintained I do not need to ask any questions on that point.
I now come to the next question. Do you know, Witness, whether Kaltenbrunner gave an order for the evacuation of concentration camps?
