The Lakeland evening telegram., 1917-11-20

Polk county stood third among the
counties in the State in the amount
given to the Y. M. c. A., according to
yesterdays count, and more has been
pouring in. And Lakeland has given
half the amount raised in Polk. This
is no criticism of the rest of the
county, which has done we'll. 1t only
emphasizes the statement we have
so often made that this community
has the most generous and sympathe-
tic people that can be found any
where.

Aftermath OF
The Road Meeting

At last Fridays good roads meet
ing Mr.. Chas. E. Hill. of the Florida
State Automobile Association, made
a. fine talk to those assembled. His
address dealt with the propaganda Of
good roads generally, and did not
undertake, of course, to enter into
any controversies relative to the road
situation in Polk. He did say, how
ever, that in his travels over the
State, the rumors concerning alleged
incompetence and crookedness in
handling road matters in this county
was doing the county untold injury,
and was hurting the whole movement
for good roads in the State. 1t was
doubtless gratifying to Mr.. Hill to
note the proportion of people who
placed the stamp of their decided dis
approval and disbelief upon these
rumors. In the meeting were men
from Hillsborough county, where
these rumors have been used BY

NOTORIOUS SPY
CAUGHT IN SWITZ.

Geneva, oct correspondence
--Switzcrland's most notorious SPY at
last has been laid by the heels and
sentenced to Ave months imprisonment
and fine for his activity on behalf OF
Germany. He is Baron Heinrich Won
Sommers, alias DR.. Henry r. Somer-
set. His expulsion from Switzerland
for two years has been ordered
His case not only is interesting be
cause Of the audacity Of his work but
because for almost three wears he
posed as an American. managed TO IN
duce two United States embassies TO
give him American passports. ana al
most got third from third embassy.
He has been a German since clever
clerk discovered the fraud he was per-
petrating. and, in the former American
embassy in Berlin. took away from him
the passport he had whecdled out OF
the American embassy in Rome
Since shortly after that time Somer-
set, or Won Sommers. or Van Siemers,
as he sometimes was called, has been
in Switzerland. whittier he came
armed with German papers, and after
unsuccessfully offering his services as
a spy to both the French and the Eng
lish. has. as his trial revealed, been
working for the German government.
Sommers' business had been to coll
lect and train Swiss agents TO send TO
France where they were to gather as
much military and political informa-
ton as possible, while Sommers re-
manned in Geneva and kept track Of
returning repatriates and obtained all
the information possible. Information
secured in either way would be carried
to Zurich by one of the trio and sent
over into Germany by underground
means.
Sommers however made another
mistake. He picked the wrong man in
his search for agents. That man,
news dealer. pretended to agree to his
plan. even accepted money from him, |
and then told the police. Thus the |
Swiss got him and have made him |
harmless for a while
