:55:00
and we beat them up...
:55:02
and turned them over to the police.
:55:06
Did the police do anything about it?
:55:08
- No.
- Why not?
:55:10
It was then...
:55:12
at the time of the national elections.
:55:16
You mean the time the National Socialists
came to power?
:55:19
Yeah.
:55:23
What happened after 1933...
:55:27
after the Nazis came to power?
:55:30
I got a job on a farm...
:55:33
but for the work,
to drive a truck was necessary.
:55:38
I went to the city building
to apply for a license.
:55:42
And what happened there?
:55:45
They took me to an official.
:55:49
Did you ever have any dealings
with this official before?
:55:54
He was one of the men...
:55:57
who broke into our house that night.
:56:00
What did he say to your application?
:56:04
He said an examination
there would have to be.
:56:08
Where was the examination to take place?
:56:11
In the district court of Stuttgart.
:56:15
Who was the presiding justice in the court?
:56:21
Justice Hoffstetter.
:56:25
What happened in the courtroom?
:56:29
They asked me my full name...
:56:32
and so forth.
:56:35
What else did they ask you?
:56:38
They asked me when Adolf Hitler
and Dr. Goebbels were born.
:56:44
What did you reply?
:56:46
I told them I didn't know,
and also that I didn't care.
:56:57
Did they ask you any more questions?
