N. J.. is conducting such a traffic with the aid and assistance of the socalled Bernstein Line. which took over the Red Star Line. and now sails under the swastika flag. This line is being used to smuggle aliens. in violation of our immigration laws. and of course the smugglersknow better than I how they do it and what means they employ to circumvent our immigration laws. I suppose the usual method would be to ship the men as sailors and have them lose themselves when the ship docks in port. The large German liners apparently are easily supervised but the small line is able to escape attention on the part -of our immigration officials. I have before me some correspondence between Franz Schulze. who was formerly an attorney in Chicago and now is an attach6 of the German Embassy and a contact man between the Nazi bund and Washington. This man wrote a letter to Fritz Gissibl. whom I have previously mentioned as the leader of the Friends of New Germany. as to how to go about getting incorporation papers for German organizations and how to obtain local charters in the various States of the Union.
