Hamburg, August 29. The Military Court trying Fichi-Marshal Erich Fritz Von Manstein on war crimes charges decided today that extracts from Hitler's anti-Semitic speeches against the Jews might be used in evidence.
Major Elwyn Jones, member of the British Parliament and junior Prosecution lawyer, argued that the former Nazi field commander In South Russla must have known of these speeches from broadcasts and newspaper reports and of Hitler's determination to
exter minate the Jews."

Earlier in today's hearing Major Jones read evidence taken from a Polish Jew, who said he had watched German soldiers, through the grating of his cellar in Sosno- wice, shoot Polish civilians in the street after they had been dragged from their homes.
The evidence was the first called by the Prosecution in an effort to prove Van Manstein's quilt of war crimes, including responsibility for alleged bru talities and killings of Pallsh prisoners of war and civilians.
