DISPUTE OVER SPY INQUIRIES
Too Many Departments Want to
 Guide Detectives

WASHINGTON, Nov. 10-The Department of Justice and the Treasury Department are engaged in controversy over the investi- gation into the activities of Fay, Breitung, and the other alleged Ger man spies at New York by the secret service under the direction of Chief Flynn.
 According to the Department of Justice, the secret service has no Jurisdiction in the case and should not be allowed to meddle in it. The department contends that under the law passed at the close of the Roosevelt administration the juris- diction of the secret service is con- fined to treasury cases and the care of the President.
 Offenders of the secret service, however, insist that it is the only body of trained detectives in the Federal service. They assert that the bureau of investigations of the Department of Justice, which wants to handle the Fay case exclusively, under the direction of A. Bruce Bielaski as chief, is not competent to do the work.

GATEWAY SAYS PEOPLE
 WANT SPENCE REMOVED

The Gateway at Seward says: On the way back to Washington at this moment is an appeal from the demo- crats of Valdez to remove from of- flee District Attorney Spence of the Third Division, according to indis- putable evidence received today by the Gatewty. The resolution calling for the retirement of the district attorney was passed at meeting of the Democratic club of Valdez about ten days ago. It carried a preamble which stated that Spence has not identified himself with the
 Democratic party in Alaska, has
 associated and worked with the
 bitterest opponents of the organiza- tion, is not an Alaskan, and is in various ways unfitted for the, posi- tion. The information received even goes to the length of saying that Spence is incompetent. A rumor has also reached the Gateway that the Bar association of Valdez is a. bout to follow along the same lines with regard to the district attorney.

FRANCE EXECUTES
 TWO WOMEN
Both are Said to Have Had Fail
 Trial on Spy Charges

Paris, Nov. 6-France makes no secret of the fact that she has ex- ecuted two women spies. Otillie Voss. when arrested, called herself Jeanne Bouvier. Her papers were made out in that name. After be- ing questioned she told her true name and said she was born in Rhine provinces, German and un- married.
 For seven years before the war she lived at Agen near Bordeaux, giving German lessons. When the war broke out she returned to Ger many and became a spy.
 Marguerite Schmidt was born at Thiacourt, France. She was 25. She was arrested at Nancy.
 After long examination she con fessed that the Germans sent her to obtain information concerning the presence of British troops, reported to be in the Nancy region.
