Description

Chief defendant in the trial of 23 high officials of the vast I.G. Farben chemical combine is Carl Krauch who is seen in the dock of a war crimes courtroom in Nurnberg making last corrections in his final plea of innocence before addressing the U.S. Military Tribunal. Following the defendants' final pleas the Tribunal recessed to judge whether these German industrialists knowingly helped build Germany's war machine to be used in the invasions of foreign countries as the prosecution charges or for the defense of Germany from aggressive states as the defense argued.
