SABOTEURS AT LARGE
SEARCH IN AMERICA WASHINGTON, July 26. The director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation, Mr. J. Edgar Hoover, ordered the distribution of hundreds of thousands of posters throughout America announcing that three dangerous Nazi saboteurs were on their way to America or had already landed. Their names were given as Walter Kappe, Joseph Schmidt and Rheinhold Barth. Several aliases were also announced. All three were described as expert saboteurs, trained' in German sabotage schools. They are alleged to have received orders from the Nazi High Command to destroy vital American war industries.
The Federal Bureau of Investigation is continuing its sweeping arrests of dangerous aliens. It has just arrested 11 Germans and Italians and confiscated charts and aerial photographs showing vital spots in the New York and New Jersey defence area. They were specially designed for the guidance of enemy bombers.
