Nazis Seize
Americans
In Berlin!

BERLIN = At least eight
Americans including the pas
tor of the American church
and the secretary of the
American Chamber of Conn.,
merce were arrested late
Wednesday and during the
night. Nazis admitted that
the arrests were mot impos-
sibly' in reprisal for Amer
lean seizure of German ships.
Police intimated that all had
been released, some last night and
others Thursday morning, after
having been held incommunioado
at headquarters OF the secret po-
lice, the Nazi gestapo, in the Alex
anderplatz, with one exception.
The exception was the Rev.
Stewart Brown, pastor Of the
American church In Berlin.
He was arrested at his apart
ment, in the same building with
the church, and taken to a precinct
police station. He was released as
soon as he showed his American
embassy diplomatic credentials.
Others arrested included:
Arthur r. Dunning. 81. Bath,
Me. secretary of the American
Chamber Of Commerce in Berlin
since 1918 and resident Of Ger
many since 1902.
John Paul Dickson. New York.
representative of the Mutual
Broadcasting system and part time
assistant in the Berlin office OF the
Chicago Tribune.
A music student from New York
named Welsh, a Negro.
Alexander ThIerty, 81, Philsdel-
phia.
-. Cayanaugh; =. schmidt,
and young Californian.
The Alexanderplstz gestspo
headquarters is where Richard c.
Hottelet. Of the United Press
Berlin staff, has been held since
soon after the enactment Of the
lease-lend bill on suspicion of
espionage"
The American embassy and con-
sulate general took up the matter
Of the arrests with the police and
foreign office as soon as 1T learned
Of them.
Police told some of those
arrested that they expected 10
arrest more Americans.
Those Americans seized had
been resident in Germany for q
long time. Most Of them have been
students and few have engaged in
gainful occupations.
Most Of the Americans were
kept In one room OF the gesta-
po headquarters. Not all Of
them were subjected to de-
tailed ol,e<tioniuK.
