She said immediately, the gloves come from the wool collection, and pointed the defendant, who was shocked, that it would be more correct and better if he delivered the gloves immediately again, as there could otherwise be bad consequences, because there would be severe penalties for it. The defendant replied that he would also do so. Obviously, according to the impression of the witness Bredefeldt, he regretted the purchase.

The next morning, the defendant continued his usual journey with his bread cart. He had put on the gloves. When he came to the farmer Eggert after Groß-Schwass, his mother asked him how he had come to the beautiful gloves. The defendant told her that he had bought them the day before from a soldier, in the gloves there was a note, from which it emerged that they came from the wool collection. How the witness Eggert learned from his mother, has then said to the defendant, how he could do such a thing.

Even now and on the following days, the defendant did not deliver the gloves. After he was not on the road on Sunday and Monday, d. 11 and 12. 1. 1942, he used the gloves on his trips on Tuesday and Wednesday again. When he drove through Buchbinderstrasse in Rostock on Wednesday, d. 14. 1. 1942, he was called by the gunner Stahl. The defendant told him that there was a note in the gloves, from which it emerged that they were from the wool collection, whether he was not ashamed at all. Stahl replied to him that it was not so bad, he could wear them calmly.

[CW:Dated Terminology] From America, Aug 1943: Aviation Gasoline ad from Shell (+Synthetic Rubber; Toluene; Acetone; Methyl Ethyl Ketone; and Hydrogen) «SOMETHING BIG – like lifting an ELEPHANT»

This vintage Shell advertisement discusses the company's wartime efforts in supplying materials for the war effort. The ad highlights how the company uses petroleum gases to produce hydrogen, which is used to lift barrage balloons or “Flying Elephants” that are moored near vital war plants. The ad also mentions other products made from petroleum byproducts, such as aviation gasoline, synthetic rubber, and toluene for TNT.

SOMETHING BIG – like lifting an ELEPHANT

NEW, strange feature of the American
Scene-those Flying Elephants in the
neighborhood of vital war plants..
At night they are moored from ten to twelve
thousand feet up-the better to clip your buz-
zards' wings, Tojo. With the mooring cable, a
barrage balloon weighs about 1,350 pounds. It
takes a lot of LIFT-12,000 cubic feet of
HYDROGEN-to do this job! ... Hydrogen
has only 60/1000 the weight of air.
Along our West Coast, Shell is supplying the
hydrogen... Scientists at the “University of
Petroleum,” Shell's research laboratories, got
hydrogen as a by-product when they discovered
how to make acetone and methyl ethyl ketone
from petroleum gases.
The acetone and methyl ethyl ketone now
do duty in smokeless powders and cordite...
in paints and lacquers for our tanks and guns
in making rayon fabrics for parachutes and
safety "glass" for bomber windows. And the
hydrogen lifts those Flying Elephants!
Practically every advance of Shell Research
now goes direct to the war factories or war
fronts: 100-octane aviation gasoline, first pro-
duced in commercial quantities by Shell; Buta-
diene, for synthetic rubber, first regularly sup-
plied in quantity to our rubber manufacturers
by Shell; nitration grade Toluene for TNT-
Shell was first to get it from petroleum.
Tomorrow, new products-growing from these
and scores of other Shell research accomplish-
ments-will be at your service in your every-
day peacetime life.
