Thank 7ou for your letter of Jul 9
concerning Jose Laradagoitia, Which during Oanorga
Donovomis absence I am undorttk1n4.; to ansmire
Although at, first we ecasidered to acme ex
tent the potential value of this man an a doable agents
our study of the informtion obtained from him, az won
as the impressions arising from our two interviewa with
him, convinced us Chot he did not warrant complete con-
fidence. In consequemej we have abandoned any ideas
of making use of him an a double agent.
We take this occasion to express our a?precia-
tion for your offer to supply us with further laformation
which may be forthcoming from Laradagoitia in the future.
In the event thItt the Federal Bureau of lwesti-
gation finds it deslrable to make use of Laradagoitlas we
trust that you will not hesitate to call upon us or any
cooperation that we can give to contribute to the success

Similar organisations were established in Gerisavi, Cseeh-6
oslovakia. ?ranee, Belgium* and Renaud. Ail these orgssissok
tions were affiliated =der the nano CUM (Central liseuttin
Union of UkroLinian Studente). The leaders of these various
unions are said to have been in close ?onto* with the -
organization of Ukrainian Nationalists (0.U.N.) in Berlin.
Since this latter organisation 000perated -with the 'Nadir

Student Union was also supTorted and used by the Gelman

Mayor, head of Western Europe "lotion.
Mayer comments: "Quito interesting, It fits is

Edgar Hoover of the FBI, I wish to inform you
that the Research & Analysis Branch has A copy
of a book entitled, "Die Deutsche Polisol",
Mr. Hoover did not ask that we send him the
book but inquired as to whether we had a complete
or partial translation of the publication. We
have no translation in this office, but material
from the volume concerned was used in the prepara-
tion of R.ec.A. No, 678, "Public Order, Police and
the Elite Guard", a copy of which has already
been forwarded to Mr. Roach of the FBI. If Mr.
Hoover desires another copy of this report, I
shall be glad to send him one.

Wilhelm Bohlo, a former protege of Rudolph Ease. In
1937 Bohlo was transferred to the Kinistry of Poreign
Affairs with the_ title of "Read of the Foreign
Organisation in the Vinistry of Poreign Affairs" and
the rank of Secretary of State in the Ministry.
,Originally only Party members were organised under
the aegis of the Ausland Organisation but all "Ger-
mana abroad" were included after 197. The general
purpose of the Organisation is to "win all German
citizens abroad and to "Keep the principle of racial
community alive." It ie both territorially and func
tionally organized, the U.S.A. being included
territorially in Regional Department VI. The Foreign
Organisation exercises supervisory power over the
activities of all other Nazi Party offices, such as
the Labor Front, and also over the so-called "quasi-
independent" German organizations for promoting
Germanism abroad.

SUBJECT: Letter to Colonel Donovan from J. Edgar 1t 'e lu/22/42
lAtt -; r t
With regard to the attached letter
from r. J. Edgar Hoover, I do not see that any part
applies to the R & A Branch excepting the request for
an up to date list of field offices out of which any
of our representatives orirate. The reply to this
question so far as st& A is concerned is very simple.
We have representatives in London and
we expect in the very near future to have representatives
in San Francisco, Cairo and Chungking.
?
In addition you will probably want to
know also the existing field offices of the Interde art-
mental Committee for the Acquisition of Foreign Pub ca.
tions. They are at present:
London
Stockholm
Cairo
Istanbul
Chungking
To this list we expect to add New Delhi
In the very near future.

Dear Edgar:
CONFIDENTIAL
Thank you for your letter of Octocer
9th and the memorandum of the same date there-
with enclosed, containlag information allegedly
necured from a Swiss bueinesansa who waa
Germany from August 5th to September 17# 1942
In accordenev with your request,
asked our Vic:tern European Seetion ta criticize
this memorandum, and I think you will be inter
ested In the following comments which they have
just submitted to me:
"Exoept for the interesting statement
on hs experience in Cologne, this report, pur-
portLng to have come from a Swiss businessman,
is practically worthless. The reporter appears
to be reliable enough, although he is certainly
an Incompetent and an uncritical observer. He,
apperently, knows very little about Germany, else
he would have reported the gossip he has heard
quifw differently. The report abounds in care-
less or false statements on subjects concerning
which we have very accurate information: this
yearts harvest, evacuations due to bombings,
young boys being inducted into the service, the
leLgth of the work-day, American propaganda
being 'Jewish and Communist, etc..*

Sincerely&

often talk about the Ruesian propaganda, stating they have the oppoTtunity
to listen to it through the company radios. The propaganda lereadeeested
by the WO is also described as being good. However, it is alleod thAt
hmerican propaganda is ridiculed and looked upon as, being rhilash.
At the present time the voices heard on t* propaganda programs are,
1%ustrian, although the propaganda itself is Jewish and Communistic tn, natlere.
Vurthermore, it suppoeedly goes into detaa as to what is happening in
America, a subject in lrhich the German peeple have no interest.
,
,
The middle class and ,workers who formerly were social democrats
are rEe,orted as wanting nothing whatsoever to do with Communism. They
assertedly object to the American propaganda of Greschi:asky, IleabegixMl
and Otto li.a-asser. They are against any further dictatorship and want
freedom of thoucht, religion, press, speech, personal rights, and personal
property ,and peace and ;justice. It is else rerorted theae aasses want
decentralization in Germany and more self-government for the various
countries thin Germany. Farmers are against the Russian style of
eolleetive farming and are anxious to be free as they were before the
riee of Hitler.

Dear Bill,
Transmitted herwirs for your informntion 11 a
pook called "Rough lirr.fts of Lecturs3 on'..ogic DRlivared
in the Imperial Presence", Dy Shigetluyo Suejura. 1:his
book was puolisned Octot,er 17, 1938, In c.,;(,-yo to sell for
twelve yen.
These lectures delivered oetween tne imers 1914
and 1920 are on such suojects as the following: The Ttree
Sacred Treasures of Japan, The Flag of the Rising Sun,
Nation, Soldier, Spirit, Sword, Militarism, Selr-SacrIfice,
Washington, et cetera. It would appear that tnese lec:ures
on subjects pertainin to Japan are for th6 most part imbued
with the spirit of Japanese nationalism.
as occurred to me that the subject matter of
these lectures might be of interest to your division,
especially in view of the fact they were apparently delivered
in the presence of the 'graperor of Japan.
Sincerely.
