France Stiffens Spying Penalties;
Espionage Scare Includes StayiSky
By RICHARD C. MASSOCK
lBy Associated Pressl


PARIS, March 1.-Stiffer pun
ishment for spies has been voted
by the French parliament, impelled
to speedy action by revelation of
alleged American couple, Robert
Gordon Switz and his wife, in one
and Serge Stavisky, arch swindler,
in another.
A bill raising the minimum pris-
on term from one to Two, or three
years, depending on the serious
ness of the offense, leaving the
maximum at five years and penal
izing a wider range of acts sus-
pectible of endangering the state,
was adopted after lying in a par
liamentary pigeon hole more than
10 years.
Many Postwar Gases
Espionage throughout France
since the world war has been so
prevalent, senate committee
found that more drastic law was
urgently needed.
Twenty-Five spy cases, with 27
arrests, IA convictions and three
executions agitated Europe in
1888. Ten of the cases were in
France alone, where 10 spy sus-
poets were arrested and a dozen
convicted.
State secrets have been stolen,
bought and sold. the authorities
declare. The spy scare has been
greatest in the neighborhOod of
Frances new $4,000, 900, 900 forti-
fications on the German frontier.
Women Agents Numerous
Women, always glamorous fig
ures in the mysterious shadows of
espionage, have figured in the
French cases. Half of the 10 sus-
poets caught in the dragnet that
entangled the Switzes are women.
The mysterious "Marie Louise"
of the famous Baillie-Stewart case
of the Tower of London, turks in
the background. with French po-
lice suspecting a connection be-
tween her and some of those ar
rested in Paris.
La Belle Sophie Drost. from
tier beauty, was sentenced recent
" to two years Imprisonment. She
was convicted, along with five
men, of espionage on the new
forts.
Clever Devices Found
Secrets written on necktie-lin-
ings, inscribed on cigarette paper
and hidden in imitation pearls of
necklaces. or embroidered in
telegraphic dot-and-dash design on
feminine handkerchief, have
been discovered by the French po-
lice in some of their Investigations.
Wrist-watches. which really are
tiny cameras, and fountain pens
used to pump up surreptitiously
few drops of a new chemical in a
vargas laboratory, also have been
seized.
Here are some of the major of
fenses of espionage punishable
under the new French code:
Obtaining, divulging or Undue
ing others to obtain or divulge Sc
cret objects, plans, maps, docu-
ments or information of military,
or economic nature
which affect the national defense
or safety.
Wall Scaling Penalized
Making photographs or drawings
within six miles of fortification
or other military establishment to
which access is forbidden stran-
gers.
Scaling walls or otherwise fore
ing way into such places.
Secret trial is provided for, If
the authorities think the country's
welfare would be endangered by
publicity. and courts martial are
given jurisdiction over all spies in
time of war or state of siege.
