SPIES IN CONSULATES

VlCny A1nDaSSdQOT I1ellIy may t
recently let out a loud wall about
newspaper reports charging him
and his staff with undercover pro-
Axis activities.
It is possible that Henry-Haye
knows nothing about it, but govern
ment authorities are in possession of
evidence that Nazi agents are on
Vichy consular stats in this coun-
try. Also, that such agents have
been installed in Hungarian consular
offices.
| 1t has been ascertained that sew
eral weeks before Axis consulates
were ordered expelled, Berlin, either
tipped off or anticipating the move,
quietly began shifting some of its
agents to Vichy and Hungarian con-
sulates.
The Vichy consulate in Chicago,
headed by Raymond Imbault-Huart,
was one of those that suddenly had
a mysterious staff expansion. An
other was in the Hungarian consul
late in Cleveland, directed by Louis
Alexy.
Two investigators" were added
to Imbault-Huart's staff early in
June. These men were in constant
contact with the Nazi consulate in
Chicago; in fact, they called there
almost every day until the Nazi con-
sui departed in July. This was
definitely established by Dies COM
mittee agents and from former
member of the Vichy consular staff
in Chicago, who resigned in disgust
after many years of service.
THE PRESIDENTS MOTHER
Sara Delano Roosevelt thought
the man to whom she proudly re-
ferred to as "My son, the Presi-
dent" was capable of doing any,
thing he set his mind to; and the
President would have done any,
thing he could to satisfy her wishes.
But one favor he could not grant,
despite his high Office. Because of
it's intimate character, the story was
kept secret by the few who knew
it, but now that the gracious mis-
tress of Hyde Park has passed on,
it can be told.
During the Czechoslovak crisis
in 1889, the President was confer
| ring with advisers when secretary
interrupted with word that his moth
er was calling from New York. The
President picked up the phone, in
quired, Eyes, mother?"
Mrs. Roosevelt was in a state of
high excitement. There was some
difficulty over friend who had
come to this country from Europe.
He wanted to remain until he was
| certain il would be safe for him to
return, but the state department was
refusing to grant an extension of his
visa. Couldn't the President do
something?
'I'm sorry, mother" he replied,
''but Pm afraid I can't help you on
this"
An excited buzz of conversation
came through the phone. 1t might
be dangerous for the friend to re-
turn. Wasn't the President the
highest official of the government
and couldn't he do something?
Roosevelt glanced helplessly at
those about him. Then, with a pa
tient smile, he again addressed the
phone.
Mother" he explained, it's
against the law"
This was one door even the Presi-
dent of the United States could not
open for his mother or anybody.
