PUHL: He mentioned valuables which the SS had brought from the Eastern Territories, which were then in their cellars and which, above all, they requested us to keep in safety.
DR. SAUTER: But did the Defendant Funk tell you in detail what these valuables were?
PUHL: No, not in detail, but he said that in general they were gold, foreign currency, silver, and jewelry.
DR. SAUTER: Gold, foreign currency, silver, jewelry...
PUHL: To which I may add that gold and foreign currency had of course to be surrendered to the Reichsbank at any rate.
DR. SAUTER: Gold, foreign currency, silver and jewelry?
PUHL: Yes.
DR. SAUTER: And that was supposed to have been confiscated in the Eastern Territories?
PUHL: Yes.
DR. SAUTER: Did the Defendant Funk tell you at the time why these confiscations had been made, or who had been affected by them?
