Worden, May 5 — The defense sprang a surprise today at the re- sumption of the courtmartial of Dr. Gustav Krupp von Bohlen and the other defendants who are charged with responaibility for the disturbance at the Krupp plant on March 81. Counsel announced that 22 additional defense witnesses had been summon- ed, bringing the total to 43. The trend of yesterday's examina. tion of the Kruppa president was re. ported to be responsible for the new move inasmuch as the defense will seek to prove that the defendant di- rectors were not responsible for the blowing of the siren at the Krupp works, Most of the new witnesses are employed at the plant.
