Nazi Spies Busy
nRebornP Paris
French Authorities Caution
Public Against Persons
With German Accent.

PARIS.-Paris is a lovely place.
The people are most cordial and
hospitable. But you still have to
keep your dukes up.
A blonde young lady at a cocktail
party was very. pleasant, spoke both
English and French expertly, said
she "a an American who had mar
ried a Frenchman, and chatted
about this and that.
"Oh, I'm still so afraid of Ger
man bombers," she said. 81 wish
they wouldn't take the anti-aircraft
guns away"
"Who said anything about taking
them away?" I asked.
"Well, there was n right near
my house and it's gone" she re-
piled.
1 suggested that anti-aircraft bat
teries often change positions.
"But why have all the boys left
the hotel where they were billeted?"
she asked-a little too directly.
Has Cousins in U. S.
Later she sighed and said she had
a lot of cousins in the U. S. army
whom she hadn't seen for years.
Was there any way she could find
out if they are here, she wondered.
She volunteered names - some
named Johnson, some named
Moore, then one with a very unusual
name.
1 suggested that the army paper
Stars and Stripes, might help.
"Oh, I've asked them, and they
say they can't" she replied-just a
little too quickly.
You may not realize it, but you
have just listened to the converse
ton of a spy-practically page 10
in the textbook.
The young lady may or may not
have been a spy, but she gave a
perfect example of somebody trying
to find out about troop movements.
The whereabouts of her odd-named
cousin might have pinned down a
whole division.
Thousands of these innocent
sounding conversations have been
launched-but not all finished when
the subjects are wary-in Paris re-
-
Many Nazi Agents Here.
There is no doubt that many
Nazi agents still are here. French
officials have warned the public
against people with German accents
who claim they come from the Dor
der of Alsace-Lorraine.
Why, with the Germans plunging
10 defeat, would anyone continue to
help them? Maybe fanatical Nazi
maybe in hope of escaping
the rapidly tightening French
surveillance, maybe just to pick up
bits of money.
Thousands of GIs have been asked
lisarmingly, "where do you come
in the United S~tates?" Than
come the snappers, chow long have
you been in France?" "where did
you land?" show did you come
Simple-but just the sort of simple
questions an intelligence officer asks
IN enemy prisoner.
Hundreds of soldiers have been
lmazed by Parisians' interest in
out autograph books for
hem to sign. Some of the ingratiat-
ng interviewers don't care about the
ignatures; it's only to lead up to,
oh, don't just sign your name
yrite your unit under it, too"
Germany may be ~tottering, but
he arm of its military intelligence
still long. ,
