(Switzerland)

The following information was obtained through

investigation in Switzerland:

It was observed that ALEX was listed in the

Swiss Police Monitor Number 30, dated February 12, 1965,

Page 421, Item 4303, as being the subject of an entry

ban for Switzerland.

HANS-PETER WYSSMANN, Swiss Federal Department

of Justice and Police, advised on February 17, 1965, that

this ban by the Swiss

Aliens Police was issued at the

request of the Zurich Cantonal Police.

WYSSMANN

noted

that ALEX would be informed of the ban through the Swixx

Consulate in Chicago.

The reason given for the ban was

"Undesirable foreigner."

No further explanation would be

given ALEX by the Swiss authorities,

he would have the

right to appeal, but WYSSMANN was of the opinion that if

he did appeal there was very little chance of the appeal

being successful.

The Swixx Central Police Bureau noted that

although they had previously recorded ALEX's birthdate

as April 1, 1914, in their records, it is April 1, 1916,

in his passport.

Chicago T-4 advised that he had learned in

May of 1965, that ALEX intended to appeal the, banning

by the Swiss Government.

On March 1, 1965, the Police Judiciaire

(Criminal Police), Surete Nationale, furnished the following

additional information in the captioned matter, which had

been developed by further investigation:

According to the PJSN (Police Judiciaire,

Surete Nationale), subject registered at the Hotel Bristol,

Paris, on January 16, 1965. At that time he gave his date

of birth as April 1, 1916, in Illinois, and presented U. S.

passport B 4019963, which was issued October 16, 1961 at

Chicago, Illinois.

He was accompanied by DIETGARD ROSE MARIE

FUEGER, who was born December 3, 1938, at Seewalchen, Austria.

According to the hotel records,

FUEGER was listed as

in possession of French Identity Card RZ 45437, which was

issued August 12, 1961, and her home address was listed as

177 Promenade des Anglais, Nice, France.

It was subsequently ascertained by the PJSN

that through an error at the reception desk of the hotel,

the identifying information was erroneously attributed to

FUEGER at the time she registered.

The PJSN later inter-

viewed THERESE GARELLI, another customer of the hotel at

that time, verified that the identity card in question.

actually belonged to her, and established that she had no

knowledge of or connection with subject or: FUEGER.

The PJSN stated that subject and FUEGER departed

the hotel on January 20, 1965, for an unknown destination.

Subject and his companion did not otherwise come to the

attention of French Police authorities during their brief

stay in Paris.

On May 14, 1965, Agent TOM MANSON, U.S.

customs, 610 south Canal, Chicago, was advised of FUEGER's

departure and requested to be alert for her return.

On

date JACK BURKE, Immigration and Naturalization

Service (INS), 219 South

Dearborn, Chicago, was also

advised of FUEGER's departure and

he stated he would

ascertain whether

• or not FUEGER's name is

still on the "look-

out list" and take the necessary precautions to have her

thoroughly interrogated upon her return to this country.

The Bundeskriminalamt (BKA - West German

Federal Criminal Police) has

furnished the following

information:

A check of the records available through TWA

Airways in Frankfurt/Main, West Germany, failed to reveal

any information indicating that SUZANNE FUEGER arrived by

from New York between May 12 and May 19, 1965. No

passenger lists are maintained on the local flights of

Lufthansa between Frankfurt/Main and Munich, Germany, and

therefore no record on FUEGER could be located for travel

between these points. Further, FUEGER has not been located

Inquiries in Munich have revealed that FUEGER'S

mother, ELSE ROSE FUEGER, sold her house in the village

of Riederau for a sum of

40,000 Marks,

and purchased a flat

at 12 Martha-Braeustrasse,

Fuerstenfeldbruck, West Germany.

This is a town in the immediate vicinity of Munich.

Mr. and Mrs. PRASSE, son-in-law and daughter,

respectively, of Mrs. FUEGER, were residing with her in the

house in Riederau, and as of May 18, 1965, were still in

the house, although they planned to

move shortly to Nuernberg,

West Germany. The inquiries indicated that the sale of

the house led to quarrels in the family.

Police efforts are continuing to obtain some

information regarding FUEGER's activities.
