ZURICH NOW SPY
CENTER OF WORLD
By WILLIAM PHILIP SIMMS

ZURICH, Switzerland, Feb. II (by
maiD This Is the spy center OF the
world--the hub from which radiates the
German network Of espionage, Nothing
the Swiss may do can prevent 1t re-
naming 30. When ] was In Stockholm
eighteen months ngo the place was
buzzing with international intrigue.
There was spy behind every column
IN every hotel. the frs, fiddler in the
Tsigahe orchestra probably was in tho
pay Of the Germans There one saw
strange sights. Myself in the smoking
room of the Grand Hotel accidentally
ran into a Russian who 'ftcr 1t few
days had been pointed out TO me as one
of the big guns of Petrograd in full
confab with man in civilian clothes
whom rccogi I'D as Il military attache
OF the German embassy In Stockholm.
The spy capital of the world has
changed since then. This is IL.
No neutral country anywhere has
more consistently tried to keep down
spying inside her territory than has
switzerland But there are some very
clever spies. An American official told
me he saw II German naval officer In
Paris recently and Immediately reported
his presence to the French authorities
The American had known the man in
Germany and there could be no mistake.
He was able to give the secret service
such detailed description that they rec
ogniZed who the spy was.
The call was sent out all over France,
yet tne tTy got away.
shortly afterward in Zurich the Amcri-
CO. met the officer spy In the Bahnof-
sot use The German laughed.

All of which was true.
Yet you got away, eh?'
sure. And I'm going back to Paris

heat, acting on the unseasoned wood of
