' • NOTE: The following is a literal tra-islaor. of a conversation between GORING, LAMMERS, and. several : interrogating officers. I. HITLER's. Successor GORING: .1 must. tell you something. You are the head of the Chancelyou signed all documents, You became aware of a change in the situation only by accident, not through any sofficial papers. You knew about it only after DONITZ) ' . radio address. Anybody could appear tomorrow and declare, "I received,. a rac/io message after DONIT,Z received his; I am the head of the state now..." I, for one, have written proof (about the nomination of a successor)...., and when DONITZ appears now, he must hrc re some sort of written orders. LAMMERSI Yes, that's clear, he will have to produce documentary proof., G: If he has any, he has to make it known to the German peoplein the REICHSANZEIGER (Official Legal Record). Here we' have a case of a he2 ,1 of 'a state who really is not a head-of a' state, since no proof can be found. On tliTother ha.44,. I am the only one who, as legal head of the state,' could possibly be recognized by the American Government at theADresent time, and who could negotiate. This is the greatest deception ever foisted. • The Law of 13 'Sept 34, the original of which we have here, is the basis for the :case. According to this decree, HITLER can name Only one Successor—There is also a decree issued after HESS' .flight '(reads HITLER's Decree of 29 Jun 41): "In the eVentuality that I would be hindered in the execution of J4dUtiee, even if only temporarily, and should. I be unable direCtives during the time of my in- . disPobition;'I appoint as my Successor in all my offices , REICHSMARSCHAIL of the Greater German REICH, Hermann HITLER, This Decree voids the Decree of 23 April:38" Concerning the FUHRER's SuCCPSSOr." • This is the 44'40 o /1: why the REICHSMARSOHAIL (GORING himself) sent an inquiring telegram (in April) ..It;'wasn't really necessary that T inquire (whether HITLER Iid died); it was only out of loyalty that I did it The :coup d'etat was made only because I wanted to avoid further' bloodshed, on 23 Api . 45.... You can well say that BORMANN is crazy. _ . Ihad'received the order concerning the FIIHRER's successor from the Deputy Ch'ief of Staff of the WEHRMACHTSFUHRUNGS- STABASupreme Command of the Armed Forces) in the followin6 manner., Gen WINTER Wrote, "Inclosed I am sending you the contents of anorder w)-.ich was received by Grand Admiral DONITZ:::!in.the_plaoe of REICHSMARSCHAIL GORING, the FUHRER appoints you, HERR GROSSADMIRAI, as his successor. Official documents follow. As of now, you will take all ,measures which are necessary according to the present situ- -ation' : - from this it can be concluded that HITLER was dead - 'signed: REICHSLEITER BORMANN". G: Is there anything more fantastic than this fraud committed 'byBORMANN?...You know, the decisive point in my inquiry was (the request for) freedom of action in foreign matters. 2 . SECRET re•-,;;;
