:27:00
Why don't we all sleep on it?
:27:03
Yes, I'd like to do that.
:27:07
We mustn't keep the press waiting, Professor.
:27:11
Perhaps Miss Sherman
would like to accompany us?
:27:13
Is that necessary?
:27:14
I think she should find it interesting.
:27:18
Alright. Let's go.
:27:19
Oh, leave those.
Mr Gromek will take care of them.
:27:22
(Speaking In German)
:27:25
This way, Professor, please.

Professor Armstrong will now
read to you his statement in English.
:28:00
There will be copies available
for you in English and in German.
:28:02
Sir, is it true you're defecting
:28:04
because Washington abandoned
your anti-missile program?
:28:06
I'll explain that.
:28:07
Professor, is that the anti-missile missile?
:28:09
The one that's supposed to make
nuclear defense obsolete?
:28:11
- Yes, it is.
- (Speaks In German)
:28:13
(Interpreter) No questions.
:28:14
Does that mean
that your plan is to hand over
:28:15
your secret work to a communist country?
:28:18
(Armstrong)
I have a statement, if you don't mind.
:28:21
Professor?
:28:27
Today... (Clears Throat)
:28:30
in my country, the United States,
:28:33
there are people in high places
:28:35
who do not want to see
atomic war abolished.
:28:39
Now, because of that,
a project that I was working on
:28:41
for six years
was cancelled by my government.
:28:44
Uh... that project is more important
:28:47
than the considerations
of loyalty to any one country.
:28:52
As a result of that, I, uh...
:28:59
As a result of that, I, um... (Clears Throat)
