Ex-Nazi Not Believed
DETROIT-Kurt Wilhelm Lu- decke, author of the book "I Knew Bitter" and by his own admission a former agent of the Nazi Party the United States, is having more than ordinary difficulty con vincing Federal Judge Arthur J. Tuttle that he is entitled to Amert- can citizenship.
For nearly eight hours, with only one five-minute recess, Judge Tui- ile Bred questions at Mr. Ludecko And then adjourned the hearing unt Dec. 18 to allow Mr. Ludecke to appear with counsel and "all the wlinesses, you want."
With a copy of Mr. Ludecke's book and a sheaf of noles gleaned from reading it, Judge Tuttle chal- lenged Mr. Ludecke's sincerity in professing to have turned, away from Nazlism.
"The fact that I was imprisoned concentration camp) (In a Nazl and that I escaped and wrote the book proves that I am through with the Nazi Party," Mr. Ludecke con- lended.
