Evidence Submitted

NEW. YORK, July 9-Police in

sylvania are urged to launch a
cleanup campaign against subvers-
i've societies, by member of the
Dies Committee who charged that
several members of the German
American Bund were employed in
the Picatiny Arsenal near Dover,
N. j.
The committee member. Repre-
sentative Thomas Of New Jersey,
made the charge at secret meet
ing of police officials from three
states
Thomas explained that the evil
dence was unearthed by Dies Com
mittee investigators who lived III
three Bund camps, posing as men,
bers of the society.
Said Thomas: Our investigators
checked on the license numbers OF
five hundred cars entering one OF
the camps and found that some OF
the automobiles were owned by
employees of the Picantiny Arsen-
al" He pointed out that the three
Bund camps at Nordland, Midvalc
and Federal Hill were strategically
situated SO that they could be
transformed into bases for sabo-
tage operations against power
plants, arsenals and reservoirs.

James Mendillo, 43, of Scott road, was reported to be in "fair condi- ton" today at St. Mary's hospital where he was admitted early yes- terday morning suffering from leg wound received when he kicked in 8 window in an apartment at 21 Phoenix avenue.
 As Mendlllo recovered, internes and police officials were praising Patrolman Harold Green whose use of the Iron Claw" as a tourniquet was credited with saving Mendillo's life.

 Police at first suspected foul play, but the investigation was dismissed after it was learned that Mendillo kicked the pans of glass during a quarrel.
