MR. DODD: Rainer also says that the telegram, the now well-known telegram to Hitler saying that there was a bad situation in Austria—that that telegram was actually brought back from Berlin by Glaise-Horstenau. He says that in the same document. What do you say to that?
SEYSS-INQUART: It is not quite correct. Hitler’s letter...
MR. DODD: Well, how is it correct, if it isn’t quite correct? You indicate that there is some truth in it.
SEYSS-INQUART: I received Hitler’s letter through a courier, not through Glaise-Horstenau. And in that letter there was a draft for a telegram.
MR. DODD: And that is the same telegram that Göring referred to when he talked to you on the telephone, and the same one that Keppler referred to when he talked to Dietrich on the telephone, isn’t it?
SEYSS-INQUART: No, that telegram was at least twice as long and I very decidedly rejected this telegram.
MR. DODD: Well, finally, let me ask you this about that particular day. This radio speech that you made was really made at the direction of Göring, was it not? He told you...
SEYSS-INQUART: No.
MR. DODD: ...to make a statement, didn’t he?
SEYSS-INQUART: There is no question of it. That would have been of no interest to me.
