GOEBBELS INTERNED
CHARGE OF SMUGGLING MILLIONS OF MARKS (United Press Assn.—El«c. Tel. Copyright) (Received Sept. 30, 1 pjn.) PARIS, Sept. 29 The Stockholm correspondent of the Petit Parisian declares that Dr. Goebbels is interned in a Berlin sanitorium on a charge of smuggling out currency. It is reliably reported that a _ Swiss employee of the Zurich branch of the office of Dr. Goebbels entered Germany, where he posted 2700 letters addressed to a branch office, ostensibly in reply to an advertisement. As a result of Dr. Goebbels' order the letters were addressed, “Must not be opened.” Swiss frontier employees collected the letters at Zurich. They contained 5,000,000 marks. BERLIN, Sept. 29 The German authorities are still collecting information to disprove Mr J. Knickerbocker’s story of huge fortunes deposited by the Nazi leaders. They claim that the director of the Nipponginko bank telegraphed that the bank does not accept private deposits. The Germans, therefore, contend that it is ridiculous to say that Dr. Goebbels has deposited foreign currency with it.
