WITNESS WANTED
IN AMERICAN ESPIONAGE TRIAL LEADER OF NAZIS DISAPPEARS SUDDEN RECALL TO GERMANY By Telegraph.—Press Association, Copyright. NEW YORK, May 19. Dr Ignatz Griebl, one-time national leader of American Nazis and one of the chief witnesses in the Government’s greatest peace-time spy hunt, disappeared mysteriously only a few days before the opening of the grand jury hearing. , Federal agents learned that he sailed for Germany on board the liner Bremen on Thursday. They requested the French authorities at Cherbourg to ask him to return to the United States, but the captain would not allow them to contact Dr Greibl.
Federal agents are now trying to ascertain whether he was forced to return to Germany by threats. His wife laughs at the suggestion that he was kidnapped by Nazis, and says that Dr Greibl will return in three weeks.
