Says so-called germ warfare charges are completely without grounds. “...anyone w/ knowledge of Air Force activities...could tell...” Asked about motion pictures of confession. Says he was told by an interpreter that all Chinese investigators were personally screened by Premier Zhou Enlai before coming to interrogate POWs. “They made no attempt to get to the heart of the matter w/ me...these movies, wire recordings & interviews were forced upon me...they would give me the so-called lenient treatment policy.” 06:30:34 “They used both physical & mental pressure, but primariily the Communists work on mental pressure; they don’t like to leave any marks...” “...repetition, they used that a lot...to repeat over, and over and over again...threatened me that I should never leave alive....anybody that doesn’t play their game is classed as a war-monger...” 06:32:32 Asked if he knows of any other exploitation made of his confession. “Yes...they forced me to write two articles for their prison camp newspaper...and an open letter to the Chinese Peoples’ Volunteers...” 06:33:17 Asked if he felt he was treated according to Geneva Convention. “No sir, not in many respects...” Talks about solitary confinement; constant interrogation; poor food & constant diarrhea. 06:35:52 Says he has never heard that United Nation forces carried out any germ warfare.
