Alpha Cleaners t BROADWAY AND MAIN STRUT Nazis"Process of Selectivity' Outsmarted by Polish Scientist! ■By BILLY ROSE Whenever I’m in the mocd for gargantuan gab, I hie myself ove to a Russian tea room near Carnegie hall where refugees of a dozei rations sit around and give out with tall talk about the old days be hind them and the new days coming up. To give you a fitting for-instance, tiie other midnight I heard a maca bre yam from a gent who used to teach science in Warsaw, and while ' don’t know whether it’s history or hokum, it strike* me as being worth mi ■afleteK-'Jrt «* iW«r.ie»4tisj.-.-..— -•» ..* *, i'uun* ui* iwi jzmr oi in# war, b. there was a amail concentration s i camp In east Ger [S many which had 1 been aet up tor (two purpose*: “ (a) to build an *' underground ffiia r j chin* shop, and s (b) to make avail - able the required number of human guinea pigs for certain experi ments being con- Billy *«»• ducted by distinguished Nazi acien ! tints. • • • By SS STANDARDS, the method of aelecting these guinea pigs was scrupulously fair. Each morning before breakfast, the 50 men in each of the wooden barrack* would atacd at attention until the com mandant appeared with a list of their names. He would read off the top name on the list and the prisoner whose name was called would atep forward. The commandant would then hand two small leather disks, one marked with a white circle and the other with a black, to the "trustee” of the barrack for ex amination. Then the commandant would drop the disks into his hat, end the prisoner would draw one I of them. II he picked the one with the whit* circle ht wai i*ft until hit tame came up again SO days laltr: if ht draw tht black one, ht would be ibipped out that Satur day night. In December of 1944, my tea room friend—the scientist from Warsaw—was cattle-carred to this concentration camp end assigned to a barrack occupied almost ex clusively by captured Russian aol diers. He was asked the usuel ques tions, end when the Russians found the newcomer was a Pole, they quickly let him know that the fra ternity of races as preached by Moscow was confined to Kremlin publicity handouts. And when he further admitted he had never Joined the Party—not : for any big ideological reason, but 1 simply because he was a scientist i and had no interest in politics— i the Red ermy men decided he was : an enemy of the state and began to plot against him. i THE POLE, however, w** more worried about the disk* In th# hal than the whispering* going on about him. Under th# lottery aya tem, it would be almost two month* before hi* name wa* called, and since news bed fil tered into camp that the Russian forces were only a few weeks away, he kept telling himself that libera tion might come before th# data for the drawing. But a% the daya turned into weeks, and atlll no round of far-away cannon, ha re signed himself to taking his 50-50 chances with the hat. The night before the fateful, morning, the scientist was lying awake in his bunk when he felt a tug at his blanket. It was a young Czech who had been badly mis treated by the “trustee," and who had often mumbled about getting even. According to the kid, the com rades had figured out a plot to make certain the Pole would be shipped off to the Nasi experi menters. The "trustee” had cut a'I leather disk from his sboa and made a black circle on it, and when the commandant asked hi/n to examine the disk, his plan was to palm the one with the white cir-, cle end substitute his own, so that either would mean death to tho non-Party man. For a long mo,'- nt, the tries► fist looked up at the slat ceiling of the bunk abo-e him. "Thank you," he finally said to hit friend* "I think I’ll be able to manage.* Next morning when bis name was called, he saw th* ‘•truite#’1 palm the white-circled disk and substitute another. But be pre tended net to notice, and when tho commandant held out his hat ho smiled and selected a disk. “Whlto I )r black," he said, "I'm going to ' lave one good meal In thia mla- I srable camp." And befora the of- , licer could stop him, he popped tho )it of leather into his mouth and i iwallowed. i j1 The SS man frowned. “Craay I 5ole." he said, “what good will hat do? There is still a disk left I n the hat. If it is black, you picked he white; if it Is white, you picked I he black." j ' "That is quit# correct, Sir,” j aid the scientist. !
