   Nazi Conspiracy and Aggression, Volume Two, Chapter XIV

                                                  [Page 734]
                                                            
E. FUNK WAS A MEMBER OF WAR-PLANNING AGENCIES WHICH WERE
RESPONSIBLE FOR POLICIES AND ACTS CONTRARY TO THE LAWS OF
WAR.

After the launching of the Nazi aggression against Poland,
Funk, in his capacities as Minister of Economics, President
of the Reichsbank, and Chief Plenipotentiary for Economics,
and as a member of the Central Planning Board (to which he
was appointed in September 1943), actively participated in
the waging of aggressive war on the economic front.
Moreover, by virtue of his membership in the Central
Planning Board, which formulated and directed the execution
of the program for the enslavement, exploitation, and
degradation of millions of foreign workers, Funk shares
special responsibility for the Nazi Slave Labor Program.
(See Chapter X on the Slave Labor Program. This special
aspect of Funk's responsibility was left for development by
the French prosecuting staff.)
