PARIS RAID
ON SOVIET TRADE BUREAU PROPAGANDIST ACTIVITIES REVEALED. - I j IN COLLABORATION WITH NAZIS. By Telegraph—Press Association—Copyright. PARIS, February 8. Documents seized in the police raid on the Soviet Trade Bureau in Paris reveal that the bureau’s operations have gone far beyond the scope of a trade mission’s functions and also close collaboration between German and Russian propagandists. Plain clothes men entered the offices at 9 a.m. and forced the safes and files. They met officials arriving and escorted them to their homes, which they also searched. The Government later refused the demand by the Soviet Ambassador, M Souritz, for the return of the documents and declared that the office ceased to enjoy immunity when the Franco-Soviet trade agreement lapsed. The raid is part of operations against Communists throughout France
