Hull to Sign Security Charter WASHINGTON. June 29 U.K Cordell Hull, who devoted his last years as secretary of state to pre parations for a world organiza tion, will sign the United Nations Nazi Scientists t Death Ray, As Secret Yfeappn : By MALCOLM MUIK, JR. United Press Staff. Correspondent PARIS, June 29 (UJD Lt. Col. i John A. Keck said today that' , when the war ended German sci- entists were working on a master 'secret weapon" stratosphere -platforms to float 5,000 miles above the earth, from which .:, devastating death rays could be focused on any part of the world. Keck is chief of enemy equip-ft ment intelligence of the Euro- pean. -theater- He said the Ger-,' mans did not hope to complete p the weapon in less than 50 years. The platforms were' envisaged as hanging just beyond the range . of the death's gravity. At least one scientist told him that "it would be a terrible thing for the world." Mammoth reflectors , 'were to focus the sun's rays on earthly targets. The platforms were to be reached by rockets, and the rays directed by radio-Keck radio-Keck said the Germans were working on plans which "made Buck Rogers look tike he lived in the gay nineties.? But he said ' American army experts questioning question-ing the men who drew up thei plans were "impressed with their practical engineering minds and ' distate for -the fantastic." Keck told a SHAEF press conference con-ference that the ray, when focused fo-cused on any living thing, theoretically theor-etically would kill it. Any body of water would be turned to steam; forests kindled, and cities wioed out" He quoted German scientists as saying that the first country which perfected this weapon. , would "forever control the world." The Germans also were said to have foreseen the use of the plat- ' forms as observation posts for astronomers and other scientific observers, and for generating power for the earth by focusing the controlled rays on a ground receiving station. The idea of using the platforms to launch space ships to other planets and the outer regions also al-so was envisaged. Keck said the plan definitely was found lacking at certain experimental ex-perimental stages, but the scientists scient-ists seemed convinced that the region beyond gravity was acces- sible to man. The plan. Keck said, was known to some 100 of Germany's foremost rocket experts,' all of whom had been questioned by American army specialists and some by the Russians.

Hitler Suffered Pangs, Record of Conference Shows BERCHTESGADEN, June 29 (U.R) Adolf Hitler may or may not have chewed carpets, but he -did have some black moments last summer when he said he al-. most wished for an assassin's bullet. bul-let. . Evidence that the Fuehrer more than once was wracked by despair was unearthed by Allied intel- . ligence officers in the steno , graphic record of a conference ; Hitler held at his East Prussian headquarters last Aug. 31. ? Hitler was so depressed by Git" endless succession of German military defeats and the defeatist attitude of his generals that he confessed a mild regret over failure fail-ure of the July 20, attempt on hix life. "If that explosion had ended : my life." he told his Nazi conferees, con-ferees, "It would have been liber- . ation from all cares, worries, sleepless . nights and nervous,, strain. , ' "It is only that fraction of a second then one is free and finds ' rest and eternal peace."
