Dr. Geuter, do you recognize that headline?
1:32:12
Yes, sir.
1:32:13
Would you read it to the tribunal?
1:32:16
"Death to the race defiler. "
1:32:18
In what newspaper did it appear?
1:32:20
In Julius Streicher's Der Stürmer.
1:32:23
What was it in connection with?
1:32:26
The Feldenstein case.
1:32:28
What was the Feldenstein case?
1:32:31
Your Honor...
1:32:32
defense objects
to the introduction of the Feldenstein case.

1:32:35
It is a notorious case,
perhaps the most notorious of the period.

1:32:39
It has overtones, and appeals to emotion...
1:32:43
that would perhaps be best not raised.
1:32:46
There are no issues or overtones
that may not be raised in this courtroom.

1:32:50
The tribunal is interested in everything
that is relevant.

1:32:53
Objection is overruled.
1:32:59
It's all right. I'll take it.
1:33:05
May it please the tribunal?
1:33:07
- You may continue.
- Thank you.

1:33:18
Now.
1:33:20
What was the Feldenstein case?
1:33:23
The case of a man
accused of racial pollution.

1:33:27
Will you explain what is meant
by "racial pollution"?

1:33:31
This is the charge
that is referred to in the Nuremberg Laws.

1:33:37
It says that any non-Aryan
having sexual relations with an Aryan...

1:33:41
may be punished by death.
1:33:43
When did you first become acquainted
with the Feldenstein case?

1:33:48
In September 1935,
I was contacted by the police.

1:33:52
They said that Mr. Feldenstein
was being held...

1:33:55
and that he requested
that I serve as his counselor.
