When did you see Duquesne
last?"
L haven't seen him since he was
here. 1 haven't any knowledge of
him at ALL"
Gulden swallowed and scratched
the gray hairs on his temple.
you've been in touch with him
at 81 West 46th Street recently"
Forty one" Gulden said auto
matically, and caught himself.
That's right" I laughed.
Gulden's pale face had turned a
purplish hue. He was livid with
fury.
IF you want to talk to me any
more, you'll have to show me
authority or take me into court {"
he shouted. I've said all 7 intend
to say. I've said enough"
Yes, you've said enough" I
agreed and rose.
IT is this man Gulden's organi-
cation of super-patriots, whose
membership includes federal, state
and city government officials,
which cooperates with paid Hitler
agents in the distribution Of anti
semitic propaganda.
On February 6, 1884, there was
a great deal Of publicity about 300
pounds Of anti-sen1itic propaganda
which had been discovered on the
German freighter Este. The prop
uganda was in burlap bags, ad-
dressed and ready to be mailed as
soon as it was smuggled off the
ship. 1t was confiscated, but
neither customs officials nor the
federal secret service knew or know
who is behind and directing this
smuggling nor how widely read it
is.
And at this point in our rev.
Citations we come to the head Of
the German foreign secret service
in this country, man sent to the
United States by the U.S.CHLA.,
the German secret political police.
He was one of the best operatives
in the German secret service. Not
even Col. Edwin Emerson, who was
sent here to organize anti-semitism
in this country on a national scale,
knows this mans fullest impor-
lance. All he knows is that when
he commands they are supposed to
obey-quickly.
This man is Guenther Orgell of
606 West 115th Street, New York
City, ostensibly employed by the
Raymond Roth Co., IS West 45th
street, as an electrical engineer;
and his official connection with the
German groups in this country is
only as secretary of the United
German Societies. This head of the
Hitler secret service in this coun-
try keeps his records and instruc-
lions from abroad in a we'll hidden
house at Great Kills, Staten Island.
The telephone number, in case fed
eral operatives want to communi-
cate with him, is Honeywood 6-2137.
That Nazi. anti-semitic prop
uganda is being struggled into the
United States has been known for
some time. The propaganda enters
chiefly through the ports of New
York and Baltimore on the East
Coast and through San Pedro, Cal,
and Portland, Ore, on the West
Coast. At the same time these
German ships on which propaganda
is sent to this country, are being
used to carry secret reports to and
from the propaganda minister and
the USCHLA.
I EFT me take the reader on a trip
Il in which secret reports on the
progress of anti-semitic plotting are
sent and received. :.
1t is twenty minutes to ten on the
evening of March 16, 1884. Ger
many's Queen of the Seas, the North
German Lloyd ship Europa is pre-
pairing to sail at midnight. The
gaily Illuminated boat is filed with
men and women, many in evening
dress, seeing friends off to Europe.
German stewards, all of them mem
bers of the ships Nazi Grippe,
stand about bowling, smiling, but
watching every passenger and visi-
tor carefully.
People wander all over the boat.
Many visit the library on the main
promenade deck, which has a Ger
man post Office. There is a great
deal of laughter and chatter and
into this scene, dressed in an or
binary business suit, strolls Guen-
Their Orgell, carrying a folded news
paper in his hands. He catches the
post office stewards eye. Not the
slightest sign of recognition passes
between them or shows on either
face. Orgell casually takes four
letters from his coat pocket and
hands them to the steward, who
casually slips them into his pocket
There are no stamps on the letters.
Still so casual in manner that
the average observer would not even
have noticed the passage of the
letters, Orgel wanders over to
desk in the library and rapidly
writes another letter-so important,
that he dared not car
ry it with him in the event of
The letter is sealed and
handed to the steward.
THE library has great many visi-
tors. No one seems to be paying
any attention to this visitor or pas
senger talking to the steward. With
a quick glance around him, Orgell
takes in everyone in the library
and seems satisfied. Again he
catches the stewards eye. This
time he mods. The steward opens
a closet in the library, the second
