This effort became known as the Kimberley Plan, or Kimberley Scheme. On 23 May he arrived in Perth and by early gained substantial public support, but also encountered opposition.

She was a close friend of Zishe Landau, one of the founders of the slightly earlier, rival group, Di Yunge.

Schwebel Fox Evrett introduction. From the Books of Samuel and Kings. Long inscription by author Was important Mexican Jewish writer and academic. Das Buch Hiob nebst einem neuen Commentar. Mattogno, Concentration Camp Stutthof 3. The Period from June to January Conditions in Stutthof changed drastically starting in mid I will return to this in chapter IV.
Transports with thousands of Jewish women arrived, even from Auschwitz. They were sent on the transports without sufficient clothing and food. Now they were supposed to be accepted in a camp that was itself on subsistence level. Berlin only promised to ensure that the inmates would be detailed off in workers. Commandos were detailed off to Konigs- berg, Elbing, Danzig, Gotenhafen, Stolp, Bromberg, Stettin, and to the nearer or more distant surroundings. Typhus- infected inmates spread the disease in the camp, and this epidemic caused many victims among the masses tightly packed together in the camp.
Where, and how, could an improvement be made? More and more transports arrived. Could one refuse to accept them? When the transports arrived with their inmates, they had to be accepted. At the end of August , the camp manpower, including the outer camps, was approximately 60,; it had therefore multiplied tenfold in eight months! The last large transport arrived from Auschwitz on October In the following month, only individual groups of inmates arrived at Stutthof; the last inmate, the Pole Jan Zielina, no.
The fact that transports from Stutthof departed after October was one reason for the renewed decline in camp manpower. The deficiency of the disinfestation facilities is shown, were not entitled to them. The sanitary installations were good. And I am supposed to have approved all this because I wanted to torment the inmates? Mattogno, Concentration Camp Stutthof among other things, by the certification of a transfer to Flossenbiirg dated November 24, Quarantine is therefore to be imposed, and these inmates are to be put to work in closed groups.
These inmates were bathed and deloused prior to departure on the transport. The SS garrison doctor. This number included 25, Jewish women and 2, Jewish 76 men. Mattogno, Concentration Camp Stutthof 70 Table 1: Inmates in the Stutthof Camp in early Date Male Inmates Female Inmates Total January 24 18, 28, 46, 80 January 30 10, 23, 33, February 1 10, 22, 32, February 5 10, 22, 32, February 10 10, 21, 31, February 15 15, 81 10, 26, February 20 15, 9, 25, February 25 15, 9, 24, March 1 15, 8, 24, March 5 15, 8, 23, March 10 15, 8, 23, March 15 14, 8, 22, March 20 6, 3, 9, March 25 6, 3, 9, April 1 4, 2, 7, April 5 4, 2, 7, April 10 4, 2, 6, April 15 4, 2, 6, April 20 4, 2, 6, April 22 4, 1, 6, this reason, it seems to us impossible to offer even an approximate estimate of the number of victims caused by the evacuation of the camp, and we will refrain from putting forth any estimates.
What has survived, though, are daily records on the camp strength from a series consisting mainly of Morgenappell morning roll call documents ranging from January 24 to April 22, They show the numbers as given in Table l. The difference is explained by the changes occurring during the day. O 1 It is unknown where these approximately 5, prisoners came from who were admitted into the camp between February 11 and Mattogno, Concentration Camp Stutthof winter of the war, under almost inconceivable circumstances and who therefore suffered horribly high losses.
Weber hit the nail on the head when he wrote: During this same period, hundreds of thousands of German civilians, most of them women and children, as well [as] civilians of other nationalities, were slowly making their way westward in the snow and freezing weather Many of these people also died during the winter trek. The decision to evacuate the camp appears to have been made by Fritz Katzmann, the Higher SS and Police Chief of Danzig, after the onset of the large-scale winter offensive of the Red Army on January 12, After January 20, all work in the camp was directed at the forthcoming evacuation, and approximately 11, inmates were led out of Stutthof on January 25 and At night, the inmates were supposed to be lodged in villages.
Many in- 82 Mark Weber, op. Mattogno, Concentration Camp Stutthof mates died on the road, others escaped, and considerable numbers were overtaken by the advancing Soviet troops and liberated. The majority of the evacuees were halted by the Wehrmacht before they reached Lauenberg, and put to work building anti-tank ditches. In early March, following the onset of another Soviet offensive, those who were able to march were led in the direction of Gotenhafen and Putzig, where they were supposed to be transported to Germany by ship. They did not get there, because the columns were captured on the way by the Soviets.
Many of these German civilians were later evacuated to the west by sea. Beginning in March, these cities were severely bombed by the Soviet air force, killing many inmates and German civilians. On March 25, a ship transport with over refugees from the Gotenhafen subsidiary camp sailed for Kiel, where the inmates were interned in auxiliary camps of Neuengamme concentration camp.
Two large sea trans- 84 M. Mattogno, Concentration Camp Stutthof ports with a total of approximately 4, inmates departed on April 25 and The first traveled by way of Hela to Neustadt, where the inmates were lodged in a hospital following the arrival of British troops; a few were later transferred to Sweden by the Swedish Red Cross for medical care. A large number of the persons evacuated by sea died from hunger, exhaustion, or disease before the end of the war; an unknown number were killed during British bombing attacks on the evacuation ships. In and , four trials were held in Poland against a total of 80 members of Stutthof camp guard personnel.
Accused of collaboration with the Germans or of membership in Polish nationalist movements such as the Armi- ja Krajowa Homeland Army , or the Boy Scout-type organization Szare Szeregi Gray Ranks , they were promptly arrested again and disappeared into Soviet concentration camps, some of them for many years. During interrogations held after their liberation by the Soviet secret service NKVD, they were found to be too well informed about the structure 89 A detailed description of the evacuation by sea can be found in E. Mattogno, Concentration Camp Stutthof of the camp.
This sealed their fate: The first testimony to be mentioned is the Soviet expert report, drawn up only five days after the capture of the camp, on 14 May , which we quote in full: The Germans began construction of Stutthof concentration camp in Until , there was a total of approximately 15 standard-type wooden barracks, as well as the necessary small buildings for guard personnel.
In mid, the camp began to expand rapidly, and, by the end of, consisted of the following buildings: In reality, according to the data of former inmate Wozniak, a Pole, to people were crammed together in the barracks in each case. The washrooms and toilets in the barracks did not work, since construction of the sewerage network was not yet completed. According to the testimony of former Polish camp inmate Wozniak, the installation was disassembled and removed in January A barbed wire fence surrounded the entire camp terrain.
Around the living area of the camp was a separate barbed wire barrier, mounted on porcelain insulators. The wire was under high voltage. On the barracks side, in front of the above mentioned wire barrier, was another barbed wire fence three meters high. The distance between the barracks was 10 to 15 meters. At the time of our inspection of the camp, 30 of the 72 existing living barracks had been burnt down. The concentration camp contained one gas chamber [94] of 8. Outside the gas chamber, a small, primitive oven, built of brick and measuring 1.
The pipe was embedded in a wall clad in concrete mortar, with perforations measuring 2. CO was able to exit through a brick chimney, especially built on the outside of the gas chamber, next to the entrance door. The gas chamber functioned as follows: The people were led into the gas chamber, after which the doors were hermetically sealed. According to the testimony of this same Krawczyk, the asphyxiation procedure lasted 45 minutes. In visiting the camp, we discovered two crematory ovens built in , which were operated with coke, as well as third oven heated with a flammable liquid fuel, that is, a total of three ovens.
We did not find a fourth oven, but something resembling an oven foundation remained. There are grounds for assuming that the Germans blew up the fourth oven. The most important technical data relating to these ovens are to be taken from the attached diagrams. On the front, there was also a small round opening cm in diameter, which could be sealed with a small door; this was used to regulate the air supply. All openings had iron doors 7 to 9 mm thick. If one considers the extreme emaciation of the corpses, which means that a corpse, on average, occupied a volume of 0.
During use at full capacity, therefore, twelve corpses could be introduced lengthwise into the oven in two layers. At this temperature, the cremation process lasted 50 to 60 minutes. The ovens were installed together with a room used for executions by shooting and hanging, and measuring 18 x 10 x 2 meters, including the surface area of the oven room area. The normal capacity of the camp, assuming 2. Studio storico-tecnico con la collaborazione del dott. Effepi Edizioni, Genova, , vol.
II, documents , pp. The meaning is no doubt 7 to 9 cm; the doors of the Topf crematory ovens of Auschwitz, for example, were 10 cm thick, and consisted of 8 cm of monolithic lining material and 2 cm of cast iron. The concentration camp had three crematory ovens. Assuming, as stated above, that twelve corpses could be introduced into one oven at a time, that the cremation procedure took 50 minutes, and that 10 minutes were required to fill the ovens, then the total capacity over a hour period was: There were four different methods: It was a masonry building.
The gas chamber measured 8. There were two entrances, which could be tightly closed by means of hooks. The floor was of cement, the walls were plastered. In the ceiling was a round opening cm diameter, with a shaft through which the gas-forming substance was shaken out. Under this opening, on the floor, was a second, square-shaped opening measuring 30 x 30 cm, covered with a wooden lid. Eyewitnesses have reported how the SS men 99 Z. Mattogno, Concentration Camp Stutthof shook a granular, yellow-brown colored substance out of tin cans through the opening in the ceiling.
Death occurred after the lapse of approximately one half-hour. The murders in the gas chamber lasted from the summer of until approximately December of the same year. Lukaszkiewicz concludes that a total number of 65, inmates died in Stutthof camp and its auxiliary camps. The witnesses report that approximately 3, Jews were gassed during this time. Thus, a total of4, people were murdered in the gas chamber. Action - Special Treatment - and the typhus epidemic. In other camps, it took the form of a selection. Before their deaths, they spent three days in the open and received no food.
The remains of their clothing, consisting solely of rags, were simply falling off their bodies. Finally, the SS men deceived them by making them believe that they were being taken to a sanatorium for the disabled, which made the poor wretches very happy. They attempted to clean up and bring order into their outward appearance.
Near the gas chamber stood two third class railway wagons. The SS made the Soviet prisoners of war climb into them. They were told that they were only waiting for the locomotive to be hooked on. The victims entered the waiting room without resistance to have an evening meal. The iron doors were slammed shut and the Zyklon was thrown in. In August, a total of over women and over men died in this way; in September, over women; in October, over women and a few dozen men, and, in the first days of November, between two and three hundred women.
The death sentences were arbitrarily handed down by the Ober- scharfuhrer [Ewald] Foth. The overseers were not inferior to him in their zeal, but in the Jewish killing actions, Foth was without doubt the most bestial and ruthless torturer. One time, when the gas chamber didn 1 work, this bloodthirsty sadist beat the doomed women to death with his own hands. There was no appeal against his decision.
Every day, he ordered a roll call lasting several hours, at which he took out the sick and weak women. He judged their state of health according to their legs, forcing the Jewish women to run races against each other. Those who could not run fast enough went to their deaths. There were K. Mattogno, Concentration Camp Stutthof frightful scenes during the separation of families. In particular, Foth sought out pregnant women who were unable to work.
Foth led a search action, found her, and brought her triumphantly back to the group of candidates for death. In the beginning, the Jewish women did not know the purpose of the selection, but they soon realized, and began passive resistance. They defended themselves before they entered the gas chamber.
The Hitlerites then staged a black comedy, setting up a doctors consultation office in the enlarged gas chamber, and led the women in on the pretext that they were about to receive a medical examination. After the deluded women had entered without resistance, they closed the doors and let the gas in. This again led to resistance. Many inmates died as the result of blows with a stick or rifle butts, either at work or in the blocks.
From the middle of , mass killings were carried out in the gas chamber. The first group of gassing victims consisted of a group of disabled Russian prisoners of war brought from a camp in Czarny. Finally, a few groups of Polish resistance fighters from Warsaw, Plock and Pomerania, as well as 4, Jewish women in particular, who were sick and unable to work, were also gassed. In the infirmary, patients were often drowned in the bathtubs or murdered by means of phenol injections in the heart.
The last group of Soviet spies was shot in the crematorium in March [ Approximately 85, people died in Stutthof camp, its auxiliary camps, and during the evacuation. The article is especially significant for two reasons: The gas chamber was constructed according to the pattern in other camps: The first verifiable gassing in Stutthof took place on June 22, Approximately persons were killed - mostly Poles and Belo- Russians under sentence of death.
There were incidents with regards to the second group [ The next known gassing took place on 26 July Mattogno, Concentration Camp Stutthof Jewish women were exterminated first. In October, more than are supposed to have been killed, including a group of men. Another women were killed in this manner before the gassing was stopped in the beginning of November In this regard, Pressac writes as follows: Its dimensions 8 meters long, 3 wide and 2. There are two gas-tight doors, one at the southern end and the other at the northern end.
The agent used for delousing is not known precisely, but given the presence of the external stove [to the left of the door, see Photo 6], it must have been either dry heat or hydrocyanic acid [Zyklon B] used in a heated room. In this case, it was not essential to pour the product in through an external opening, as an operator wearing a gas mask could distribute the pellets or porous discs on the floor, then go out and close the door.
At the end of the cycle, opening the two doors allowed efficient natural ventilation. Mattogno, Concentration Camp Stutthof are unable to provide material proof of its criminal use. The number of victims is estimated at one to two thousand. At this time, over 47, Jewish men, women and children were sent to Stutthof camp. The first selections of those unfit for work were undertaken immediately after the arrival of the transports from Eastern Europe. Stutthof was not yet equipped to liquidate that many people.
The decision was made to transfer them to Auschwitz-Birkenau. These people were killed in the gas chambers at Auschwitz-Birkenau. It was initially used for the delousing of clothing. But in June , one began to kill inmates by means of gas - Zyklon B - in the chamber. In the period from July to November , Jews, mostly women, from the transports entering Stutthof at that time, were killed more than 47, inmates, most of them women, entered Stutthof from July 29 to October Two specially modified carriages of the narrow-gauge railway were used in gassing the prisoners.
In particular, he states: Of the 50, Jews brought to Stutthof, almost all perished. Informator historyczny, Danzig, The German translation is the first part of the anthology edited by H. Beginning on June 29, , mass transports of Jews from the eastern territories entered Stutthof, as well as of other Jews transferred from Auschwitz concentration camp.
The initial selections were performed immediately upon arrival of the transport into the camp. As a result, a transport with 1, persons left Stutthof for Auschwitz on August 26, The transport consisted of women, including mothers with children unable to work. These transports were for the purpose of extermination. Upon arrival at the destination, the Jews were sent directly into the gas chamber. Further selections in the camp were intended to select the inmates for gassing in Stutthof itself. The gas chamber in Stutthof concentration camp, built in , was initially used for the disinfestation of clothing.
It is difficult to establish exactly when it was put to work for extermination. Again, based on research, Maria Jezierska was able to establish that this gassing took place on August 22, The Soviet prisoners of war arrived in Stutthof concentration camp, along with a large transport from the Security Police Riga, on August 15, and received the numbers Of this group, 77 invalids were given the same date of death, that is, August This data is also missing from the personal identification sheet for these prisoners of war.
Another date of a gassing of war invalids, also from August, is given by Aldo Coradello, in which he adds a pregnant description of their attitude upon entering the gas chamber. He learned of this from cremator Kapo Wilhelm Stutthof op. For this reason, it is equally difficult to establish the date of the gassing of two groups of Poles, partisans from the Bialystok region, and partisans from the Warsaw ghetto uprising, often described by former inmates in their memoirs.
These memoirs indicate that the gassing of approximately partisans was completed at the end of July, while the Warsaw group was murdered between September and November. There are discrepancies in the reports relating to the date and procedure of the action, but most of these reports repeat that both groups were taken to the crematorium and attempted to hide in the camp because they had been warned of their fate.
The SS escorts began to shoot; some of the inmates fell, and the others were taken to the gas chamber. The killings by gas acquired greater proportions when the Jewish inmates arrived in According to the testimony of the former SS man Hans Rach, the gassing of the Jewish women lasted from July to November ; on some days, during this time, ten or even twenty- plus people were killed.
The date was marked with the date stamp in the record books, and, as in the case of the Soviet prisoners of war, the numbers are missing from the death book. The Jewish women were selected for gassing during roll calls that lasted hours. Particularly pregnant women, mothers with children, and the sick were doomed to extermination. Anyone who could not run was loaded onto a wagon and taken to the gas chamber.
When the gas chamber was full, the door was shut, and Otto Knott, who had undergone special training in Oranien- burg and in Lublin concentration camp Majdanek , climbed onto the roof and poured Zyklon B through a special opening into the chamber. Initially, the women, children, and old people went unsuspectingly and quietly into the gas chamber. Mattogno, Concentration Camp Stutthof sistance; but they were violently forced inside. To fool the victims, two of the narrow gauge railway carriages were equipped for the gassing.
In the Jewish camp, it was announced that there was a need for women who could knit and darn stockings. The women saw SS men in railway uniforms and were convinced that they were being taken to work, and willingly climbed onto the trains. The narrow gauge railway made a round trip around the camp and stopped in front of the crematorium with the gassed Jewish women. In November , the extermination action was stopped. Critical Investigation of the Sources 1.
They make inexhaustible use of the most dubious eyewitnesses who are, for the most part, refuted by the available documents. In this regard, D. Mattogno, Concentration Camp Stutthof conditions, and epidemics spread by these intolerable hygienic conditions, but from torture and torment by the Kapos and guards. The Merkblatter fur den Unterricht. An die SS Fuhrer im K.

It is a matter of course that the inmates must not be beaten, pushed, or touched in so doing. Reprimands may only be given verbally. In discussing the eyewitness account by an Ester Szlamowitz, D. Since it was difficult to cause so many deaths on the first call, the soup kettles for us inmates were emptied out into the latrine. See document 16 in the appendix. Grot goes one better based on the testimony of Olga M. The women were forced to drink their own urine. The bodies were collected chiefly from Stutthof, as well as the camps in Konigsberg and Elbing.
The first trial experiment in the manufacture of soap was carried out in February Until the end of the war, soap production did not extend beyond mere experimentation. This enhanced the institute s official character. In the light of the indictment of the State Prosecutor of the USSR in Nuremberg and the Decision of the Reich Court of March 7, , any disposition of the human body after death was impermissible and punishable from a legal point of view.
Mattogno, Concentration Camp Stutthof It is well known that orthodox Western historiography has long since abandoned the fairy tale of soap from human fat. As remarked by Raul Hilberg: A document from Prof. The document does not, however, specifically mention human fat. We found corpses of Polish and Soviet prisoners. The story of the human soap factory in Danzig had already been proffered by the Jewish historian Konnilyn G.

The Sanity of Madness. Mattogno, Concentration Camp Stutthof own people suffered during the first epidemic, which broke out in spring of On April 24, Dr Stefan Mirau, inmate doctor since , died in the infirmary from typhus; a few SS men also fell ill, one of them died. The camp clothing was disinfested upon mass outbreaks of contagious illness.
The Polish historian Maria Elzbieta Jezierska has done extensive research on this topic. We are interested only in the documents and physical evidence. The shootings were described by witnesses and confirmed by an exhumation carried out in The corpses were 1 'j r buried in the woods between Stegna and Stutthof. A small E. Mattogno, Concentration Camp Stutthof proportion of those executed had received a capital punishment for ordinary crimes murder, rape, theft, etc. Among those executed in this phase were Soviet citizens, Poles, 12 Jews, 2 Germans, and 1 Latvian; 19 were women.
The death sentences were executed by hanging in 50 cases and by firing squad in 36 cases; for the remaining cases only the execution was recorded without indicating the type. The relevant personal file no. The number of such cases may have amounted to a few dozen. Both were used for political and for common crimes. That the camp hospital was indeed a real hospital results also from a list of medical supplies - products with a collective weight of more than 80 kg - which was supplied to the camp by the Danzig Gestapo on 31 January This story runs as follows: Rechnung ilber die an die Inspektion der KZ.
Dated 14 April Drywa appears even more distorted in view of the fact that at least one of the two health care workers alleged to have been transferred from Alsace to West Prussia for the purpose of participation in the mass murder of Jews by injection, P. Weil, was himself Jewish.

At the same time, these same historians inform us that, in April - when the first contingent of health care workers arrived from Dachau - typhus had just broken out at Stutthof! The second group of health care workers was therefore almost certainly sent to Stutthof in connection with an epidemic, since, according to E. The date of this transfer was 23 September ; this harmonizes with the inmate numbers assigned to the two health care workers; compare the table of transports on p.
The most important excerpt from the eyewitness statements of Kienzler and Weil will be given later compare Chapter III, Section 4, d ii. A part of them, especially Jewish, was transferred to Stutthof. Grabowska expounds this argument by using the terminology sanctioned by orthodox historiography: At Stutthof this activity began in July and lasted until November. With a few exceptions they were slated for direct extermination within the framework of special treatment.
On the deportation of the residents of the Lodz ghetto see chapter IV. There are no surviving documents relating to the Stutthof gas chamber, located approximately 10 meters north of the crematorium see photos in the Appendix. The gas chamber photo 1 is a small, rectangular structure 8. The walls are of ordinary brick masonry; the ceiling is of reinforced concrete. The chamber had two gas-tight steel doors, located opposite each other. The doors in existence today, of light sheet steel photos 3 and 4 , were installed after the war.
To the left of the south door, on the exterior wall, is a small brick oven photos 5 and 6 ; the front side of the oven contains two small metal doors. The upper door is the fire door; the lower one is the ash door. The first was used to seal the coke-fired combustion chamber, containing a grid of diagonal rods. An opening pierced in the rear wall links the combustion chamber to a cast iron pipe photo 7 inside the gas chamber.
The floor is of perforated brick; the holes are filled with cement. The walls are whitewashed; the ceiling is of rough cement. At oven height, the above mentioned cast iron pipe, approximately 25 cm in diameter, runs along the west wall; the pipe then bends at a right angle, rises perpendicularly up the north wall photo 8 and leads out of the roof of the chamber into a brick chimney photo 9. Today, this pipe is almost enclosed by a wall, forming a solid section cm high and 50 cm wide.
It is only uncovered in short sections visible in photo 7. As may be seen in a Soviet photograph taken after the cap- Brick with three round perforations. A circular opening 15 cm in diameter was pierced in the middle of the ceiling photo Above is a metal shaft with a lid photo Directly beneath the opening in the floor mentioned above is a small drain photo 13 formerly equipped with a protective grate. Enormous stains of Iron Blue formed by iron cyanides which had migrated to the surface are visible on all four inside walls of the chamber, clearly proving the use of hydrocyanic acid gas in this building photo Blue pigmentation has also formed around the circular opening in the ceiling.
The relatively low temperature required for the rapid evaporation of hydrocyanic acid out of the granular carrier was ensured by the combustion products of the oven; the combustion products heated the cast iron pipe, as well as the walls of perforated brickwork partially surrounding the pipe, and then rose through the chimney into the open air.
Simultaneously opening the two doors along the north-southwest axis achieved rather rapid and efficient ventilation. The document is mentioned in: Mattogno, Concentration Camp Stutthof the gas chamber right up to the doors. Nevertheless, in our view, use of these delousing chambers in their original condition for the killing of human beings would have been possible in a purely technical sense. We must now examine whether or not the chamber was actually used for this purpose. The crematorium, of course, plays quite a secondary role in connection with the reported extermination of human beings, but the data of eyewitnesses with relation to its function and capacity are a solid criterion for an evaluation of their general credibility.
In Stutthof, two of the coke-fueled ovens were installed by the H. Kori concern photo 19 ; the same firm also installed one oil-fired oven. These three ovens are exhibited in the crematorium recon- 1 stmcted by the Poles after the war. There are no surviving documents relating to the crematorium. The camp was to have had eight double ovens and one morgue, to be linked to the ovens by a lift. A gold workshop with a safe and 4 rooms measuring 20 m in surface area were to be connected to the crematorium.
V zur besonderen Verfugung [for special duty]. The ovens were to cremate approximately corpses in one hour. According to the plans, the whole crematorium was to be surrounded by a high wall. The plan, however, was not put into effect.
Universität Heidelberg
I, 2nd part, chapter Mattogno, Concentration Camp Stutthof As a source, the Polish historian refers to the testimony of the former inmate Waclaw Lewandowski. The latter, however, provided a distorted description of the original crematorium project. In actual fact, the average cremation time for a corpse amounted to one hour. It was installed on the east side of the infirmary, with a wooden roof built over it; the terrain of the crematorium was set apart from the camp. The oven was in operation approximately one half year. It burnt corpses in 45 minutes, using approximately 5 liters of oil to do so.
The first cremation took place on September 1, [ An oven burnt corpses in 45 minutes. The document is reproduced in: Mattogno, Concentration Camp Stutthof This information, again exclusively based on eyewitness reports, is on a weak footing as well, both historically and technically. That this was put out of operation after only six months of use - even before the stationary ovens were built - is highly improbable.
Our book on Majdanek discusses a German report attributing a capacity of 50 corpses in 12 hours to this type of oven. These ovens were much bigger than the Kori ovens, but could only cremate two corpses per hour. The claim that seven to eight corpses could be cremated in one oil-fueled Kori oven in 45 minutes is quite absurd. Mattogno in his book on the crematoria see note 96 , vol.
This point has also been discussed by C. Precisely this was true, in particular, of the animal corpse combustion installations built by the Kori Corporation - the only i n rv existing oven comparable to the ovens reported for Stutthof. Let us now turn from the above discussion of the crematorium to the allegations of mass gassings in KL Stutthof.
The following table makes this point very clear: For this reason, the cremation process would have immediately come to a full stop! Mattogno, Concentration Camp Stutthof Table 2: Drywa June August 70, , November June and later 4, pre-August 1, Aug. With regards to eight gassings, with a total of 1, victims, only the month is indicated. In one case, of course, the exact date is given, but not the number of victims; in another case, we are left in the dark as to the date, as well as the number of victims.
The vagueness of these data is explained by the fact that there are no documents on the alleged homicidal mass gassings. The SS men began to shoot, and killed a few inmates; the others were recaptured and gassed. This is anything but of minor importance when one considers that it is precisely these eyewitness reports which are the only sources for the alleged mass gassings; these reports are furthermore extremely scarce. The most important purveyors of these reports are the former Polish Stutthof inmate Zbignew Krawczyk - mentioned only in the Soviet expert report - and, in particular, the Italian Aldo Coradello, a former camp inmate and star witness to the gas chamber at Stutthof.
The service crews H. Mattogno, Concentration Camp Stutthof worked in shifts. Up to 30 corpses were introduced into two ovens at the same time. The cremation process lasted two hours. Coke was used as fuel. It is hard to say, to indicate, an exact number of these victims.
But one is not far off when one reports that there were many thousands. Over the years, the SS elevated this type of butchery into a pure science. There were several different types of these infamous gas chambers, which were constructed according to the taste of the SS, in which extra technicians must have worked. Those exterminated in the gas chamber at Stutthof were mostly Jews, Poles, and Russian patriots. This took place in the fall of They were the only survivors of the extermination policy of the Germans in this camp. Mattogno, Concentration Camp Stutthof haustion and malnutrition.
The number of the unfit increased by the day. The appropriate methods were devised in Stutthof since no one doubted that the proposed numbers were approved in Berlin. Up to 3 prisoners had worked in the crematorium until now.

One more prisoner was therefore detailed there. The commando was further strengthened by a night shift of 3 inmates, and the brutal SS overseer Peters, who was said to have been a former beer truck driver from the Fischer brewery in Danzig, and the right man for this job. Foth, the SS women s guards and the B. After the evening meal, groups of 30 inmates were chased out in front of the canteen, where they were loaded onto simple wooden wagons.
It often happened that a father stood by and could not rescue his son, or a man could not rescue his brother. The victims being loaded onto the wagons were mostly so weak they let themselves be taken away without protest. Everyone in the camp then knew that there would be a gassing that evening. Willy Patsch, told me that they were gassed. Mattogno, Concentration Camp Stutthof work due to general weakness. Many others could only work in a restricted capacity. In Stutthof they thought up a corresponding solution.
A fourth inmate was detailed in addition to the three inmates working in the crematorium. He did not complain about this work, since, as he himself said, by searching carefully, it was possible to steal many gold teeth before the cremation. That was enough for brandy and a little savings. They immediately set to work. Then a first group of 60 to 70 women left the camp.
These were extremely weak , starved beings, for whom death no longer had any meaning. They were ready to die at any time. None of the women had the strength to protest, even if they knew that they were going to be gassed. They told the women that they had succeeded in obtaining a free school building in order to set up a sanatorium for the Stutthof inmates.
Nobody believed it, but the poor women wished in their hearts that it might be true. Strengthened by this illusory hope, they went voluntarily out of the interior part of the camp. They were unscrupulously packed into the gas chamber. Often the quantity of gas was too small, that meant longer sufferings - but the result was the same. In order not to arrive too late, they rushed; so it happened that, apart from the dead women, women who were merely unconscious were taken out of the gas chamber and dragged into [sic] the ovens. Then they returned to the block all smeared with blood, because they had no time to wash.
Then they were suddenly stopped. Among the inmates the rumor went around that the higher authorities in Berlin had interrupted the action [ Most of them had had a leg amputated , and could only move with the greatest effort with the help of crutches. Others were missing an arm or were blind. I n one thing, they were all the same: None had shoes; their heel bones were swollen and full of wounds.
They had already spent three days under the open sky, without any food, on the road. The only thing they could get was some water and food given to them by other inmates. The camp commandant had come to the conclusion that these unfit disabled persons were no longer worth the food. We newly arrived inmates had to wait for our acceptance formalities for 10 to 18 hours in a burning sun.
The camp commandant Hoppe, the protective custody leader Meyer, and Reporter Leader Obersturm- bannfuhrer Chemnitz walked around us in circles. I saw how the wretches showed their joy at finally being treated humanely, as they were entitled to be as prisoners of war and invalids to boot. In the rest of the water that was left over, they attempted to wash to look more decent. I will never forget how one prisoner made an effort to shave another who had no hands, using a piece of glass. They had neither soap nor brushes or razor blades. In painful excitement, I watched how they hurried in order to be ready for the transfer to the sanatorium.
They were really transferred, not through the main gate, but through a side gate to the right of the SS shoe making shop, through which the bodies were taken out of the camp and the infirmary to the crematorium. For us experienced inmates, it was clear that the transferees would be cruelly murdered in a few hours. On the evening, all the formalities for our transport were completed.
The barber had cut off our hair to the skin. Mattogno, Concentration Camp Stutthof a green triangle. They had had high functions in Stutthof Patsch was a Kapo in the crematorium and Knitter was his right hand. Next to the crematorium ran the Danzig-Stutthof narrow gauge railway.
On this day, two additional third carriages stood in the vicinity of the crematorium. The Soviet invalids had to take their places in it. They were convinced that the Germans had good intentions in their regard. After a half hour came Chemnitz, Ludtke and Meyer, who were swearing at the locomotive driver for being late. Then they told the invalids that the locomotive would only be there in an hour, so they would have time for an evening meal.
As soon as they were all inside the room indicated by Chemnitz, the steel doors shut behind them, and gas streamed into the room from the opening in the ceiling.

The entire camp head office was present at the gassing. After a good hour, the doors were opened, the bodies were dragged out and laid down by the crematorium. Everybody was stripped naked; the clothing was piled up for further use. Every dead person was searched for jewels and gold teeth. The gold teeth were removed, together with the jaws, using a special device, and the bodies were labeled: They had poured oil and benzene over the bodies.
The bodies of the invalids were especially emaciated, and they could load 15 bodies in the ovens. Around midnight, the ovens were filled with the last bodies. Let us now test this report for its credibility. This fact alone decisively diminishes the value of this testimony. Mattogno, Concentration Camp Stutthof tablishes the number of Jewish victims at 4,, which is not even based on eyewitness testimony - much less a document - i.
Mattogno, Concentration Camp Stutthof tion if not the gassing; yet the description of the procedures involved contains the following impossibilities: According to Coradello, one oven normally burnt 13 corpses simultaneously, but in this case, even 15! Unless he simply invented the whole story, Coradello can only have been gullibly repeating mere rumors making the rounds in the camp, without attempting to make sense of them. As in the example of the alleged gassing of the 4, Jewish women, his description of the perfidious SS camouflage maneuver is pure nonsense.
Others had no arms or were blind. That the story of the camouflage maneuver was totally made up, is clearly revealed by the allegations of K. This type of killing was intended for older women. At morning roll call, women were sought out who could darn and sew well. They were given sewing and knitting needles and marched out of the camp. So that they would arrive at their destination more quickly, a railway carriage was provided for them as an exception by the Army.
The above mentioned carriage was coupled onto a locomotive, or sometimes even a goods van, and actually departed with its tragic freight. Its destination lay in the vicinity of the crematorium, which was linked to the arrivals platform by rail. Mattogno, Concentration Camp Stutthof this specially equipped gas carriage. In the camp, these victims left their daughters or other relatives waiting for their alleged return, hoping at the same time to obtain something to eat, even if only raw potatoes.
They were painted dark yellow, like army vehicles. Perhaps the SS men considered these satanic railway carriages to be war material as well? Finally, one can say that the SS considered every concentration camp a huge battlefield, and, of course, a victorious battlefield, since thousands and thousands ofpeople were overwhelmed and finally murdered. Several times, particularly on Sundays, women were sent to fictitious commandos; they were crammed into hermetically sealed carriages, and then an SS man threw a bomb with asphyxiating gas in their midst.
His story contains no tangible facts at all - with one exception. De Tuniversite aux camps de concentrations. Temoignages Strassbourgeois, Paris , p. Mattogno, Concentration Camp Stutthof rium today are quite ordinary goods cars. The first one - which lacks a roof - is 9.
The second - which does at least have a roof - measures 9. The rumor of the murderous railway gassing carriages no doubt originated through a distortion of an actual event lacking any sinister. The goods trains with the inmates stopped at the standard gauge railway station at Tiegenhof which also had a narrow-gauge railway spur to Stutthof. There the inmates were loaded into open carriages. The train stopped at the Waldlager station, not far from the commandants villa.
The station was built in The following is an example. Exact departure time is still pending. Further transport in Tiegenhof by the Reichsbahn will take place in 8 G- and 1 C-carriages at For example, Kommandanturbefehl No. Since the train departed E. For example, 1 Kommandanturbefehl no. The selection of these inmates is to take place after oral consultation with the leader of the protective custody camp, the SS garrison doctor and labor service leader. For example, Kommandanturbefehl no. Analysis of a Particular Case In view of the absence of any document on the gassing of human beings, and in view of the uncertainty and contradictory nature of the eyewitness testimonies, orthodox historians have had a hard job lending the gassing stories a minimum of credibility.
As seen in Chapter II, Z. Lukaszkiewicz was content, in , simply to repeat the number - invented by A. Coradello - of 4, gassings; he neither attempted to shore it up with documentary proof, nor did he make any effort to establish the dates on which the murders were allegedly committed.
They arrived on the same day, and they died on the same day. These were all Russian men who were all quite young, with one exception Piotr Kalinin, who was born in and was therefore 84 years old! It is typical that similar remarks on members of one and the same transport, many of who died on the same day, relate to the Jewish transport of These are known to have been subject to a selection - older and sick people, mothers with small children, and pregnant Op.
Mattogno, Concentration Camp Stutthof women were immediately killed. Only fit Jews were accepted into the camp. The following remarks appear for the others: Other reasons for assignment to a concentration camp are not indicated. I found 41 personal cards with references to the following wounds: Mattogno, Concentration Camp Stutthof - bullet wound in knee and penetration wound in knee 3 cases - amputation of frozen toes on both feet 1 case - shot in breast 3 cases - shot in head, including one shot in area of eye 4 - several bullet wounds 7.
I stress that I was not successful in finding all the personal cards of the Russians on this transport, and we do not know how many of the others were also disabled. The most suspicious fact of this affair is the incredibly late date of this discovery, which was neither accidental nor the result of painstaking research taking decades of study. On the other hand, it cannot be doubted that the date of death 22 Aug is stamped into the entries of these 77 cases mentioned above. But who added these stamps, and when? The hypothesis of the murder of these PoWs because they were unable to work is also unreasonable and contrary to all the facts.
The Soviet PoWs who had suffered amputations and had several scars had evidently been treated by the Germans. What would have been the point of this, if they were to be killed later on as unfit for labor? These detainees had come from the PoW camp Czame and had therefore been duly registered; but what would have been the point of doing this, if they were to be killed shortly thereafter? But if that was so, why not also massacre these unfit Soviet PoWs on the spot? Furthermore, the Stutthof camp regularly registered all incoming invalid Soviets.
