SCHACHT: It is no “wrong and reprehensible” act “committed” by Hitler, but Hitler received the Sudeten German territory by way of treaty and, of course, the currency and the institute which directed financing had to be amalgamated with this field in Germany. There can be no talk of injustice. I cannot believe that the Allies have put their signature to a piece of injustice.
MR. JUSTICE JACKSON: So you think that everything up to Munich was all right?
SCHACHT: No. I am certainly of a different opinion. There was much injustice.
MR. JUSTICE JACKSON: Were you in this Court when Göring testified to his threat to bomb Prague—“the beautiful city of Prague”?
SCHACHT: Thanks to your invitation, I was here.
MR. JUSTICE JACKSON: Yes. I suppose you approved that use of the force which you had created in the Wehrmacht?
SCHACHT: Disapproved; disapproved under all circumstances.
MR. JUSTICE JACKSON: You did not think that was right dealing, then?
SCHACHT: No, no, that was an atrocious thing.
MR. JUSTICE JACKSON: Well, we have found something we agree on, Doctor. You knew of the invasion of Poland?
