Secret Airline to
Sweden Saves 5000
u. S. Army Planes Operated
Under Noses of Nazis.

LONDON.-More than 5000 i'm
portant passengers were flown out
of neutral Sweden during the last
year of the European war by the
U. S. army's "secret" airline which
operated under the noses of the Ger
mans.
1t was one of the strangest mill
tary operations of the war and the
Germans employed every trick they
knew to stop it, but without avail.
Some secrets of this mysterious
pseudo-civil airline, which now has
blossomed into a full-fedged mill
tary line between Scotland and Swe-
den, were revealed by Brig. Gen.
Earl S. Hoag, commander of the
European division of the Air Trans
port command, the agency designat-
ed to handle the job. Most of the
flying had been scheduled purposely
in bad weather.
The airmen, disguised as civilians,
had become so accustomed to being
Swallowed by Gestapo agents in
Stockholm that they didn't ven
bother locking their hotel rooms at
night. They were followed every
where, and their every move was
noted by Nazi agents.
Among the passengers were hun
dreds of informed American airmen,
Norwegian soldiers, diplomats, in
termed nationals and high officials
of many governments, including
Norwegian, French, Dutch and Rus
sian. On n occasion the person
mel of the Norwegian government in
exile was flown from London to
Sweden.
General Hoag disclosed that one of
the most daring operations was the
evacuation of some 1000 trained
Norwegian soldiers GRO German
occupied Norway to Britain, just
prior to the invasion of France.
The Swedish government, after
negotiations, had approved the re-
lease of the Norwegians, but just
about the time the first flight was
scheduled, it was discovered the
Germans had learned of the plan and
had started counter-measures.
The Germans alerted at least $50
Lutwaffe night fighters at fields in
southern Norway, and had all sus-
routes bristling with anti-air-
craft and coastal defense guns. But
they failed to shoot down a single
plane during the operation, which
extended over a period of several
weeks.

WORLDS ONLY WOMAN zoo DIRECTOR
WRITES OF HER "ANIMAL BABES
TELLS OF GAZING INTO
"WEEPING EYES
OF SEAL"

AP Newsfeatures
SAN DIEGO, CAL, Aug.
i27.-.Until one has gazed
into the weeping eyes of a
seal deprived of his usual
fish, one has no idea what
the tragedy of a zoo director
may be.
So says Belle Benchley,
author of "My Animal Ba-
bies', and only woman zoo
director in the world.
Mrs. Benchley, who be-
gan her career at the huge
San Diego Zoo Is years ago
as bookkeeper and gradual
ed almost Immediately to the
job of boss, has written three
books, all since 1910. The
first was my Life in a Man
Made JUNGLE. The second,
"My Friends. The Apes,
was written, she says, to an
swer the thousands of quer-
les she has received about
the anthropoids from all
over the world.
Of her most recent book she
says, Id SIM
1T should be a continued story
like the Arabian Nights, because
every single baby, if you have
time to get acquainted with il.
is a story of its own" ,he no.
Mrs. Benchley says She has
never met the problem Common
among woman executives - dis
elimination against her sex. Male
colleagues have welcomed her
into their organizations and have
been generous with help and adj
vice.
In choosing employees, Mrs.
Benchley has found women more
reluctant to work for her than
men, although her secretaries
have stayed with her for six years
at time, and she has had only
two bookkeepers in Is years as
zoo director.
The war added some new prob

hired, one with fair success, the
other a failure. For the first
time since 1928 the goo is without
