CANARIES, A RUSE

But he also began to make other
strange purchases-Singing canarles.
He filled his room with their cages
and their constant chattering Serv-
ed him two very useful purposes.
First it kept the other roomers
in the house from hearing the noise
of his little radio transmitter in op-
Grafton. Second. if anyone came
tc his door he would delay their ad-
mittance with the excuse that one
of his canarieS was loose in the
room and he didn't want to open
the door till the bird was safely
back in its cage. That gave him
a chance TO scurry around and
hide his equipment.
Luninp used his radio for com-
munication with Nazi submarines
operating off Cuban and Carib-
bean waters. Curiously enough,
however. it was not his radio
which led TO his detection, but his
mail. Some of the letters sent to
him from other countries. giving
Information on ship movements, at
tracted suspicion TO his importing
ond exporting business and that
Iod to observation of all his &C
fivities and the detection of the
radio trsnsmitter.

CAPITAL TALKS
by
Peter
Edison

A lot of the best stories out of
this mans war can't be told til.
after it's all over. but now and
then a foreign spy case DOGS get
cleaned up and that chapter of the
book can be bundled off to the
archives. OF such is the case of
Heinz August Luning, who ended
up before Cuban firing squad
down in Havana the other day.
The Luning case didn't attract
much attention in the United
States except as an incident dis
closed by UnderSecretary of State
Sumner Welles to prove to the
Chilean government that some OF
the spv-lines from the Western
Hemisphere back to Germany could
be traced through the Republic of
Chile. which had not been playing
ball any too we'll under the pro-
gram of co-oOeration for the
American republics agreed upon at
the Rio conference. But the story
of this Luning is as good a record

agent can do business and dirt in
a Latin American country.
Luning was born in Bremen.
Germany, of a German father and
italian mother. When he was IS
wears old he came to the United
States. settled in New York, lived
at the YMCA for a time. and fl
nally get into the exporting busi-
ness. He was apparently none too
successful. for he went to Santo
Domingo in 1886. then back to
Hamburg, still trying to get estab-
lished as an exporter.
He did manage to pick up Span
ish and English, and with that Ian
euage background, instead of be-
ing put in the army at the out
break of the war he was sent to
German espionage school in Ham
burg. In a six weeks course he
was taught how to build and oper-
ate a radio set. using spare parts
and such materials as could be
found in Latin American countries.

BECOMES A SPY

When he finished his course, they
gave him an alias. Enrique Luni,
and told him he was a Honduran-
born refugee Jew who had been
forced to free from Rotterdam
when the Nazis invaded Holland.
To make it look good. the Nazis
purchased fer him, from a crooked
Hondrran consular official in Ger
many a pre- dated Honduran pass
port attesting to his birth in the
Central American Republic of Hon.
duras. Thus equipped. and with
$4,000 in US currency, Luning SAIL
ed from Barcelona, Spain. for
Cuba. arriving in Havana in late
September, 1941.
Luning opened up small wcm-
ems apparel shop in Havana and
with his experience in the export
inc business, he began to correspond
with exporters and importers
throughout the Western Hemis-
phere. His most useful job for the
Nazis was the observation OF ship
arrivals and sailingS from the port
of Havana, though he did pick up
some stray bits of information on
ship movements from his corre-
spondence,
Enrique Luni, the refugee Jew,
had his living quarters in a room
ing house in Teniente Rey street.
To this rooming house Luni
brought the radio parts he pur-
chased in Havana stores, and be-
gan the assembly of his set,

In this rather backhanded manner
an Ely woodsman of long experience
put his stamp of approval on a deer
season, and in so doing echoed the
opinions of many local hunters.
The conservation department. mas
announced big game season OF IL
days starting on Nov. 10. II also ap-
proved a statewide open season on
pheasants starting Oct. II and clos
inc Nov. 8, and released the season
dates for upland game species and fur
bearers.
While local sportsmen wait mpa-
tiently for the deer season to open,
it is believed Elyites in the armed

are expected to be home for the oc-
casion if furloughs can be arranged.
