Moog. The pretty girl-friend of one of the key spies, a Dr. Ignatz Griebl-she travelled with him to Berlin, met some government of- ficials and had high times in the night clubs. There was some talk, she said, of establishing her in a salon in Washington, where 1t was presumed she could ply American officials with charm, champagne. and propaganda.
 NOT FUNNY TO FUEHRER
 This may sound like comedy material, but 1t will get no laughs from Hitler and his pals. The spy trial, Turrou told me, was the first such case in which the offending nation and involved of- ficials were publicly identified, and Warmers are determined not to pull any punches. It even has de- clared that it will have actors im- personating Hitler, Goering and Goebbels. ...
 Stern official protests already have been made to the Hays Off, flee, which passed them along to Warmers without reply or com ment. Warmers haven't replied either. This studio does not sell any pictures to Germany, but 1t has conferred with executives of the studios which do sell there occasionally and has been assured that they don't care a hoot if all American films are banned by the Nazis. It's impossible to get money out of Germany, and Hol- lywood is tired of piling up use- less credits there.
 But Confessions of Nazi Spy' is sure to make Hitler tear at his dropping forelock Goebbels is said to be screaming that the picture is being made at the insistence of Secretary Ickes!
 WAKE UP
 AMERICA!
 Says the ex-G-man: The facts in this picture are something the American people ought to know. It will help to make us spy conscious. We only scratched the surface in New York. and I be- lieve there is not & single factory in the United States which could make war materials in which there is not a German agent. But we know the system now, and many of the spies are known"
 Turrou, a pleasant, thin -haired man of middle age. half French and half Polish, first came to America in 1911. He enlisted with Russian volunteer corps in France in 1916, was twice wound- ed, later joined the U. s. Marine Corps. He was member of Hoover's Moscow Famine Mission until 1923.

Sitter Sentences
In Fire-Truck
Crashes Asked
Southwest Citizens
Hear Chief Porter on
FoIse-AIurm Costs

After hearing Chief Engineer
Stephen Porter of the District Fire
Department describe the work of the
firefghters, the Southwest Citizens
Association last night urged more
severe sentences for false alarms
and for failing to yield the right of
way to emergency vehicles. The as
sociation asked restoration of the
$4,000 cut from the District appro-
priations bill for the department.
With the low fire loss of only
$1.16 per capita last year, the Ma
tion's Capital has the best fire de-
partment of any city its size in the
United States, Chief Porter told the
civic group. He reported, however.
that the new District bill cut his
appropriation, forbid him to replace
or promote his men and required
closing some station houses.
Federation Tax Plan Endorsed.
The tax program of the Fedora
ton OF Citizens Associations was
supported in its entirety after dis
cussion by A. M. Edwards, chairman
OF the Federation Committee on Fis-
cal Relations, and Harry Wender.
association president. The flve-point
program calls for approval of the
Overton plan, real property tax of
$3.50 or SITS, a personal net in
come tax and a gross receipts tax
for public utilities, except the Capt.
tai Transit Co.
The business privilege tax and the
1ntangibles tax would be discon-
tlnued. The retail sales tax was dis
approved.
Restoration of a $64,562 item for
equipment for the new jefferson
Junior High School and Library as
requested on motion of Hugh S..
Smith, who reported that without
the appropriation Southwest WASH
! 1ngton will have a school without
equipment about September, 1910,
and might lose use of it for a term
If the money is not made available
this year.
Ask More Heat.
A $25,000 increase in items for
heat and light in the schools also
was urged.
Money to equip. staff and main
tain the new Southwest Health Gen.
. ter to be ready this May were also
asked on motion of Mr.. Smith.
A single agency operating all
recreational facilities in the Dis
trict was urged in a motion by the
Rev. Harry Porter in his report on
the City-wide Playground Council.
A fair small loan bill for the Dis
trict was urged in a motion by Mr..
Wender.
