An instance of French nervousness
over German espionage. which, 1t IS
feared here, was not sufficiently
crushed by the Treaty Of Versailles,
occurred in Paris this week when
Etfenne Cudin, one-time municipal
councillor and the father of Adrien
Oudin. now a member Of the Paris
Municipal Council, was arrested in a
street car because one Of the passen-

the one-time councillor to police head
quarters. where everything was ex-
planned satisfactorily. Meanwhile the
well meaning informer had disappeared,
believing he had served his country well
and faithfully.
Tension here over the spy question
has been aggravated by the discovery
that thousands OF Germans have OBJ
tanned passports TO return to Alsaee-
Lorraine To wind up personal affairs
there, and that many of these Germans
have failed TO return to their fatherland,
but are still TO be found throughout
France. where It Is feared they will
continue their penetrative efforts. from
which the enemy obtained such prec;re
information regarding French affairs
before the war started.
In order to round up all these Ger

even to demand their passports regard
