WAR CRIMINALS
REPORTED REFUGE IN SPAIN
LONDON, July 24,
Wanted Nazis and quislings are being helped by French smugglers and Spanish. Fascists to escape Allied justice, says the "Daily Mirror." Just across the Spanish border from France war criminals are living in hotels at the expense of the Spanish Government.
The "Mirror" says that French smugglers, who once helped Allied airmen to escape, are guiding black-listed war criminals through German-laid minefields to safety across the • Spanish border. The guides smuggle cloth, tobacco, and chocolate back into France. The Spanish Government is making no real effort to guard the Pyrenees frontier between Spain and France. It is a simple matter to hire a fishing-boat on the French coast, sail out of sight of land, and then turn south and land in Spain after a trip of about 25 miles.
