Conspiracy Page #9

I take it that you do not get good food

up in Cracow.

If all Berlin eats like you,

no wonder we have shortages.

Was it Mussolini who said,

"War reveals man's nobler character"?

Are we ready?

- Feeling better?

- Thank you, yes.

- Something you ate?

- I'm fine.

The cigar.

- The cigar?

- Unexpected.

We will forego cigars.

That should be no great trial.

Where did we stop?

The last remark was by Gen. Freisler.

"The Jews go in red and come out pink.

- "That is progress."

- The side-effect of CO gas.

There's more to say on that.

We're studying something faster...

...other faster and cheaper gases that

could be used. Cyanide is being tested...

...various forms.

- Electrocution, too?

There is research being done to see...

...whether electrocution

can even more effectively...

...quietly put an end,

a period to the end of the sentence.

Say one truckload an hour,

including putting the contents in...

...running the engines, removing the

contents, cleaning the inevitable soiling...

...on a 24-hour schedule,

That's 28,800 a day...

...10,512,000 in one year.

But I cannot imagine you could operate

consistently at that rate.

Not to mention disposal.

Gas vans are a short-term field solution.

We have three camps where permanent

gas chambers will be operational.

I'm sorry?

Yes, I was about to mention Belzec,

Sobibor, and Treblinka...

...before Gen. Hofmann was taken ill.

- It was a fine cigar.

Ultimately,

the camps will be the primary locations.

Last summer, Reichsfhrer Himmler

asked me to visit a camp...

Last summer, Reichsfhrer Himmler

asked me to visit a camp...

...up in Upper Silesia called Auschwitz...

...which is very well isolated

and close to significant rail access.

We are turning that camp into

a major center, solid structures.

Here's where your Jewish labor

comes into play, Herr Neumann.

The Jews hold the bricks,

and build the buildings themselves.

When the structures are complete,

we expect to be able to process 2,500...

...an hour, not a day.

An hour.

And those numbers look a lot better.

At 24 hours a day, that is 60,000.

That's 21.9 million Jews a year...

...if ever there were that many.

We are also constructing

the means of disposal...

...which will obviously depend upon

the process of combustion.

Yes, industrial in nature,

large, commercial gas-fed ovens...

...no residue to speak of.

...go up in smoke.

We can achieve that.

Imagine.

Assembly line!

Yes, the clever Americans

have shown us that...

...but we put it to the purpose of

a triumphant German vision.

Triumphant German vision.

So this is my command to you here.

Link arms, your units, your ministries...

...apply your intelligence,

apply your energies.

The machinery is waiting, feed it.

Get them on the trains.

Keep the trains rolling.

And history will honor us for having

the will and the vision to advance...

...the human race to greater purity

in a space of time so short...

...Charles Darwin would be astonished.

I want to bring this meeting to a close.

One matter we postponed is

the point at which mixed becomes...

...wholly German or wholly Jew.

That line will be drawn quickly.

I am not trying to rewrite your law,

but I am invoking Fhrer's princip.

His word is above all written law.

Do we have any disputes left to face here...

...either with my authority

or with what we have agreed?

General?

Let us astonish Charles Darwin.

I second the motion.

It is our most important war.

Sir?

We are discussing the inevitable

and bringing it about...

...in the most practical way

under one command.

I have no dispute with that.

I understand the realities...

- With the understanding that...

- And indeed...

...count on my support.

With the understanding that consideration

will be given to my proposal, yes, proceed.

I defer to the SS.

If you are to do it, then force feed it.

Speed it along.

Our situation, such as in Warsaw,

is difficult, edging towards disastrous.

Thank you.

Yes, what can I say?

My enthusiasm is boundless.

- Obviously.

- Sorry?

I trust my enthusiasm is clear,

is apparent. Yes!

Neumann?

I'd like to know that adequate labor

will still be available, especially skilled...

- On a case-by-case basis. Maj. Lange?

- Yes.

I urge that speed

that Dr. Meyer asked of you.

The Poles are not as disciplined

a population as we Germans.

I will report our will

to the Governor-General.

He'll understand I'm relieving him

of a burden. Colonel?

I thoroughly approve

and am anxious to start.

I look forward to working with your office,

and yours, Colonel.

The sooner, the better.

- The note-taking, General?

- I think we can now dispense with him.

Many of you took notes,

I'll give you the day to memorize them.

They are to be burned.

Col. Eichmann will prepare

a discrete transcript of this meeting.

You will each receive a copy.

It may be shown to superiors,

but to no one at a lower level.

All comments are to be sent,

in the most privileged way, to me...

...through Col. Eichmann.

Good.

We have accomplished something.

I thank all of you gentlemen.

Heil Hitler!

There is plenty of food left for those of you,

and please...

- Are you off, General?

- I have a few minutes. Come.

Leave him. His Fhrer lied to him.

I think he got the message.

General, just a word.

In here.

Stop it!

Stop it!

You. What are you doing?

You're in uniform.

I'm sorry, sir, it just seemed to happen.

Not in uniform.

Nothing ever just happens.

If you prefer,

we can send you to the Russian front.

Clean off these cars!

- Are you leaving tonight?

- Yes.

Not another night in Berlin?

You have nothing to do, sir. I have.

- You surprised me at the end, Dr. Stuckart.

- Not my intention.

Leave the paper tapes with me.

We'll begin transcribing tomorrow,

but leave the tapes with me now.

- You want all the tapes, sir?

- Yes, all of them.

Dr. Stuckart's car!

Are you unwell?

Good night, Dr. Stuckart.

My car.

Gen. Hofmann's car!

It is night in Moscow already.

Soon, it will be dark here.

Do you think we'll ever see

the dawn in our lifetime?

Come spring, we'll be on the move again.

Keep you spirits up, Doctor.

The Governor-General has...

...specifically been told

that we would be the first area...

...to have our ghettos emptied,

the Jews evacuated. The possible...

I know the conditions, but you are wrong.

The first to be cleansed is Germany.

Then you. Germany first.

- The bureaucratic...

- This is my operation, no bureaucrat...

...with his nose in the rule book

and hand on his cock will slow it down.

We'll be moving Jews in days, not weeks.

You can start writing up

your train schedules.

Schubert Quintet in C Major.

The adagio will tear your heart out.

Tell the Governor-General

to expect my call.

- Have we helped your problem?

- Yes, I hope so.

Good. You, sir?

- I'm sure trains will be available.

- Anything else?

You have been very patient.

Don't count on it.

Have a good ride to Cracow.
