2. The Sungul institute was engaged in basic research work and in
research work on mutations caused by radio-active emanations.
It is believed that the institute was subordinate to the IXth MVD
Main Administration in Moscow; this assumption was, however, not
confirmed.
The following orders were transmitted to the institute by Colonel
Kushnezov (fnu) from Moscow:
Order to Professor Wosneszenski:
Separation of rare earths produced by the fission of uranium,
and ion-exchange.
Order to Professor Timofeyev:
Research on mutations formed under the influence of radioactive
emanations.
3. During 1948, all activity of Soviet and German scientists working
at Professor Wosneszenski's laboratory was limited to theoretical
discussions. Commencement of practical work was continuously delayed

by alterations made at the sanatorium. This course was
drastically changed by the arrival of a Soviet general from
Moscow, who appeared greatly displeased at the state of affairs
and ordered immediate installation of small laboratories on the
second floor of the house so that practical work could get
under way.
the following experiments were made in Professor
laboratory:
Investigation of German ion-exchangers and their effect
on the separation of various solutions.
Experimental work using "Wofatites" as ion-exchangers.
Of a total of five Wofatites available, Wofatites
"Z" and "C". Experiments were made to investigate the water content
and loss of water in sodium chloride, barium chloride, barium
sulfates, and copper sulfates. By the winter of 1948, the experiments
had reached only a preliminary stage.
The scientific discussions with the Soviet experts encompassed,
among other things successes in separating rare earths, such
as samarium. praseo ym, etc., recent publications in the Journal of
Chemical Society, as well as various Soviet and foreign
papers bn ion-exchange.
The Wofatites available at the laboratory had been delivered by the
AGFA firm in Wolfen, GDR.

ministers, repeatedly visited the institute and discussed pertinent
questions with the Soviet professors as well as with Dr. Urn,
Professor Jung, Dr. Katsch, Dr. Zimmer, and Dr. Becker.
Mention was made of a visit of a Soviet general who was said to be
a representative of the IXth MVD Main Administration in Moscow and
who persistently urged Professor Jung to sign a contract with the
Soviets. The latter, however, stubbornly refused.

of rare earths. Moreover he submitted a new formula of a new
distribution law, as well as a new formula graph supplementing
current procedures.

S. It was believed that, at least at the Sungul institute, German
scientists did only subsidiary work for the Soviets.
all information obtained by the Soviets by interrogating
him and his colleagues from the former German Army Ordnance Office
was evaluated by the Soviets without consulting German scientists.
As a result of differences arising between the MVD and the Red Army,
on matters of jurisdiction plans for the exploitation of scientists
of the former German Army Ordnance Office in Spandau were dropped.
Soviet distrust in German scientist was much too vivid to entrust
them with definitive and specified atomic research work.
Other Research Groups Working in the USSR
9. The presence of PW Sengbusch (fnu) was mentioned in PW camp No 21
at Krasnogorsk in 1946 or 1947 and he received orders to set up a
working team for the study of decimeter waves.
Dr. Katsch (fnu) mentioned an atomic research institute at Leningrad,
which was said to have delivered materials to the institute at Sungul
and the institutes at Sukhum. The Leningrad institute did deliver
isotopes to Sukhom.
Another institute engaged in ion-exchange research was mentioned, in
addition to the Sungul institute. It was located in the Chelyabinak-
~verdlovsk area.
No evidence on the existence of above institutes could, however, be
furnished.

At the end of 1948, all German scientists received a bonus of 300
rubles. This bonus was meant to be an incentive for more and better
work rather than in appreciation of the work pWformed until then.
The two Soviet scientists, Professors Wosneszenski and Timofeyev
received a 1,500.- rubles only since convicts were not entitled to
higher salaries.
Communication Facilities
18. All transports were effected by trucks and passenger cars on the
highway leading to Mauk railroad station, which is located on a
single-track, Soviet-gauge sidetrack of the Chelyabinsk railroad
line.
No other transportation facilities were observed.
Other German Specialists Still Located in the USSR
19. According to a written communication by former PW Ernst W. Dormeier,
the PWs and German civilians listed below, who were employed at the
institutes in Sungul, Aguzieri, and Synop, are presently located in
PW camp No 5110/48, probably situated in the Moscow area. Dormeier
claims to have been informed that, for the time being, all Germans,
which have at least reached the degree of senior laboratory technician,
are retained in the USSR. Obviously they were, however, discharged
in October 1954.
In PW camp Borovich, in 1952, Dormeier met 70 Germans who had
worked in uranium ore mines in Czechoslovakia. They had been brought
to Kiev where they were detained even after the transfer of the other
German PWs.
