German secret instructions have
been sent and received-in violation
Of the federal laws!
Most German ships entering the
Port Of New York arrange social
evenings on board when anywhere
from several hundred to several
thousand persons are entertained.
At the conclusion Of these parties
81 many people leave that it is
impossible to keep track of them
and in that crowd much Of the
propaganda is struggled off by spe-
cialy chosen Nazi agents. At other
times, the propaganda comes con-
signed to respectable" addresses. :
Each ship has a specific address or g
collection of addresses to which
material is sent. The SIS. st. Louis,
which docks at Pier 86, for instance, .
In case customs officials are inter-
ested, has its anti-semitic propa-
ganda wrapped up in neat pack
ages and consigned to the German
Book Import Co., q Park Place,
New York City, or to A. Bruder-.
hansen Bookshop, IS w. 45th St, -
New York City.
THE German ministry of Promo
ganda, however, does not always
dare to take a chance on being
caught by addressing anti-semitic
to respectable book
shops. 1t prefers to have it snug
gled in in the dead of night when
customs officials are asleep on the
job.
And this procedure is under the
personal direction Of Guenther
Orgell, foreign secret service agent
for the German Foreign once,
Whenever Orgen needs trusted
men to take messages to and from
the boats as well as to smuggle off
material he usually calls upon the
American branch Of the Stahlhelm. e
or Steel Helmets, which drills Sc

this country. Only when he feels
that he may be watched, or only
in the event Of the most important
messages does he go aboard the
ships personally. Orgell's haison
man in the smuggling activities is

There is much more about the
into this country of anti
semitic propaganda, the ships, the
men who participate in them, the
smuggling and distribution, but
space must be saved for other and
equally startling evidence in the
nation wide web being woven by
Nazi and American agents.
