Party Official Detected
A short time after John
detected, DR.. Otto Schmidt
Wittmack, deputy chairman of
Chancellor Adenauer's Christian
Democratic Party tCDU) in
Hamburg and member of the
federal Parliament for that
party, also skipped to the East.
It developed that the deputy had
been in close contact with John.
Ominous stories about Johns
activities began to seep out OF
East Germany. He was reported
by Western intelligence officials
to be masterminding a Commu-
mist plot to lure prominent West
German officials to the East.
A 100000 mark ($119.000) re-
ward was offered for Johns re-
turn by the Federal Ministry of
Interior in August, 1854 but it
expired two months later.
BY last December he was de-
Iscribed in the West as otto

ported to have turned from a

Otto Johns Wife
Leaves London

LONDON, Dec. 10 (R.-Dr.
Otto Johns wife. who has been
living in England since her hus-
band deserted to the Commu-
nists, slipped out of London two
or three days ago, it was learned
today.
There were indications that she
had been tipped about her hus-
bands intention to return to
West Germany. She presumably
intended to join him.
The quietly dressed woman
who spoke English with only a
slight accent. packed her two
big travelling bags at her fash
ionable north London apartment
and disappeared.
Letitia Reed, the woman who
cleaned up the apartment every
Saturday and Tuesday. said she
received a note from Mrs. John
through the mail yesterday
morning.
1t said: Il have been called
away for a time. Please come in
as usual and keep the fiat in
order"

asylum, and with a Dutch dou-
ble-agent who two-timed the
British in favor of the Soviet
Union in wartime.
When the bomb assassination
plot against Hitler failed. Johns
brother Hans was among those
executed. Otto escaped on a
Lufthansa plane to Spain and
there reported to British agents
top secrets of the V-weapon
rocket base at Peenemuende. The
British spirited him to London,
where he was welcome for his
store of information.
In postwar England, John
helped prepare the war crimes
trial of Field Marshal Eric Won
Manstein, ablest German COM
mander on the Russian front.
Finally John settled in Bonn.
where he was the British-favored
choice in 1850 to head the new
West German federal security Of
flee. He got the job despite
Chancellor Konrad Adenauer's
dislike for him.
John promoted for himself a
oast-to-coast tour of the United
States in 1854. On his return
from the West Coast he was
cordially welcomed at the Offices
of the Central Intelligence
Agency and at United States
defense plants.
Spur of Moment Decision
Then, in July. came his spec
tacular detection to the East
Germans. Allied intelligence
agents concluded that he had
been leading the life Of a double
agent for years.
However, DR.. Carl Wiechmann
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1955-12-13

West Germany's chief federal
prosecutor. said last year after
an exhaustive investigation he
was convinced that John had
deserted to the Reds in a spur
of-the-moment decision. A spe-
cial West German parliamentary
committee is still looking for a
satisfactory explanation for the
detection.
Only yesterday the Bonn In
terror Minister, Gerhard Schroe-
der, told the investigating COM
mittee that he still believed John
did not flee to the East with any
traitorous intention.
Another high official of the
ministry, Ritter Won Lex. said
that John had no opportunity to
take with him a list of Western
agents operating in the Soviet
zone. The agents were only
identified by code numbers in
reports to Johns organization.
he told the committee.
He also expressed belief that
John had gone over to the East
because of "a psychological
short Circuit"
Glib and dapper, John was
treated as a distinguished guest
by the Soviet zone regime. He
appeared to relish the Vests
CONSERVATION at his desertion.
Met 400 Correspondents
On August II. 1854, the East
German Reds presented John to
the world at a news conference
He told 400 correspondents he
had fled from West Germany in
order to fight revived Nazism
and threats of a third world
war. Of the United States, he
said:
1T is using the Bonn govern
ment, Britain. and France as
tools in a conspiracy that could
lead to war which would be a
catastrophe for Germany"
Western officials declared he
had all the earmarkS of a Red
propaganda, but he insisted he
was independent politically. He
said he had abandoned all "Se-
cret intelligence" work and would
not engage in it in the East.
John declared he had gathered
from his interview in Washing
ton with Allen Dulles that "out
of the hysterical fear in the
United States. another war is
being prepared" Asked if he
had expressed to Mr.. Dulles his
doubts about the Western democ-
racies, John replied tersely, mo. u

program that war against Rus

There are 80 colored students
living in the city Of Falls Church
who now attend Fairfax County
schools. The city pays their
tuition in the county schools. If
they were admitted to the three
white elementary and one white
nigh school in the city, nine COL
ored students would go to George

Residences Pinpointed
To get this picture of enroll
ment trends and how Northern
Virginia might be affected by
the Gray Commission plan, The
Star went to school Offices in
each jurisdiction and pinpointed
residences of Negro students,
These students then were traced
to the schools that they logically
would .attend-white or colored
in an integrated system.
No attempt was made to con-
slider the shift of white students
into colored schools. since school
officials in Virginia generally
agree that desegregation would
not begin that way. Also. all the
Negro schools are located in the
middle of Negro communities.
School boards would have
their hands full re-assigning
students who object to inte-
grated schools - especially If
large numbers object. 1t might
mean overcrowding and COM
plicated transportation problems
Some school boards might find
it easier to authorize tuition
grants instead of tackling diff
cult reassignments.
: Still, the survey shows that
the school boards probably could
hold tuition, grants down in
Northern Virginia to retain as
much money as possible for the
operation Of a public school
system.
