Before a crowd of nearly 800 spec
tators-most of them women-Krebs
began his testimony with a brief
background history of his life. He
repeated many of the experiences
outlined in "Out of the Night" His
last entry into this country was IN
1888, an entry which the Govern
ment has held was illegal and Il
threatening to deport him.
Questioned by DR.. j. B. Matthews,
research director of the Dies Com
mittee, Krebs said he had been
very well acquainted" with the
Daily Worker, a newspaper pub
lished in New York. He identified
a photograph Of himself published
in an issue of the paper March IS,
1898, as a bona fide part" OF his
Gestapo credentials. and declared
the article published In connection
with it was written to hide the fact"
he was a German secret agent.

questioning Of Krebs tomorrow at

Siboney Back in u. 5.
With 100000
Ambergris Catch
Lost Crossing Is Made
BY Liner Before Starting
Army Transport Duty
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
JERSEY CITY, N. j., May 26.-
The American Export liner Siboney.
completing her last Atlantic trip in
commercial service before becoming
a United States Army transport,
arrived from Lisbon today with
probable fortune fished from mid
ocean-perhaps 100000 worth Of
ambergris.
Capt. Wenzel Habel said he
thought assays would identify the
white three-ton mass found floating
300 miles east of Bemruda as am
bergris, valuable whale secretion
used in perfume making.
Representatives of a soap corn-
pany told ships officers that amber
girls was worth SIS an ounce and
that If the catch were all ambergris,
it would probably be valued at s2,-
400, 0,00O-more than three times the
reported value Of the Siboney.
The 6,938-ton ship, operated by
American Export under charter from
the Cuba Mail Line, its owner,
brought 342 passengers, including
262 alien war refugees.
At Bermuda, British officers re-
moved Cornelius Wout, said to be
a citizen Of the Netherlands. Mrs.
Wout, continuing the journey, was
questioned by Federal Bureau OF In,
vestigation agents shortly after the
ship docked.
Frederick Ruckert, 80, a German
bound for Washington, also was re-
moved at Bermuda.
Among the passengers was Birdie
Dean of Little Rock, Ark, American
dancer returning from a two-year
European tour, principally in Ger
many and cho-Slovakia. The
British. she said, were using extra
ordinarily heavy bombs and in recent
Berlin bombings conclusion had
been so great that houses within a
12-half mile radius were unroofed.
Morale was high among Ger
manys working people, she added,
but low among propertied persons,
who have found their living stand
ards drastically reduced.

Coast Guard, while others were told
to get jobs in industrial plants or TO
scan all American publications for
any technical, military or other in
formation.
Those who went into the Army or
Coast Guard, he testified, were di-
rected to take out first citizenship
papers, so they could become nat
uralized in three years instead Of
the customary five.
Because of the freedom of the
American press, KrebS said, the
German agents are able TO get far
more information of value to Adolf
Hitler than from newspapers and
magazines in Great Britain.
The Gestapo don't get one-tenth
of the military and industrial in
formation from publications in Great
Britain that they do from the Amer
lean press" he declared.
The witness said that any pub
lished data in American newspapers
or magazines that might be of in
terest to the NaZis are at once
picked up by one of the thousands
of Gestapo agents in this country and
sent to Germany"
Clipping Bureau in Hamburg.
In addition to the reports sent
Germany by Nazi secret agents,
Krebs explained, a special division
OF the Gestapo headquarters in
Hamburg receives copies of every
important newspaper and magazine
published not only in this country,
but throughout the world. One hum
dred trained employees scan every
page and every item, he said, in an
effort to ferret out any information
that might be useful.
The Gestapo headquarters also,
he said, has on file complete" pho
tographs of every major seaport in
the world, as well as an elaborate
card file system containing the
names, personal and political his
tory of all Of Germanys enemies
and friends" in the United States
and other parts of the world. Among
the names, he declared, are those
of Government officials, school
teachers, newspapers. trade union

foreign division headquarters of the
Gestapo in Hamburg, Krebs said it
was astonishing to observe on file

German ships before outbreak of
the war.

Some of the Nazi secret agents
now operating in the United States
and other countries throughout the
world, Krebs testified, are persons
who were placed in German con-

~irelessed to Germany after the
Nazi ships had cleared American
