American Newsmen i Return From Europe — Exchanqed For Axis Correspondents Here New York. June 1 (UP!-The arrival on th, Drottningholm today of American newspapermen who had been stationed in Germany and Ijtaly climaxed discussions that started almost two years ago. Conversations looking to utt ex change of Axis correspondent? In this country for American correspondents in event <»f war were Initiated in 1940 by Lyle Wilson manager of the Washington bureau of the United Press. These discussion* assumed more concrete form when Frederick <’. Oechwiter. United Press central European manager, vtolted this country in the spring of 1941. During talks with German offii ials In Berlin, ami later with officials of the German embassy in Washington, he and Wilson discussed step* to be taken if war should actually break out. When hostilities started, the matter passed entirely Into the hands of the state department. It then came exclusively Into the realm of international diplomacy. At the outbreak of the war

X “ SYNOPSIS " ” ’ . J A chance meeting between two atrangers aboard an English railway train on Armistice Day, 1937, focusses interest in an extraordinary lost memory mystery. One of the two ia Charlee Rainier member of Parliament and steel millionaire. He remembers nothing from the time of a shell-shock near Arras early in 1917 until nearly three years later when he recovered his own identity on a park bench in Liverpool. The other man, named Harrison, is relating the story. In 1935, Harrison was hired to succeed a Miss Hobbs as Rainier’s secretary. Miss Hobbs idolises Rainier but does not like his wife who is famous for her "celebrity parties." Harrison has asked Miss Hobbs if Rainier had ever 1 tried to aolve the mystery of those “missing" three years. Her replies are vague. Harrison consults a friend. Dr. Freeman, a noted psychologist, who was acquainted with Rainier’s case but is baffled by it. The doctor does remark that Mrs. Rainier once was her husbend'e secretary, a detail that Miss Hobbs had not disclosed. Harrison has just said to Dr. Freeman, "You know he waa taken prisoner by the Germans 7* * CHAPTER EIGHT "Oh yes. But German or English —all hospitals are unhappy places, especially for a man who can’t tell anyone who he is. 1 imagine the Germans treated him nameless!y or by error under someone rise's name, and eventually returned him to England under the some condition. Then there would be other hospitals in England, full of experiences nobody would wish to remember. There were a great many shellshock and loee-of-memory cases that took years—some of them are still taking years, God help them. The whole thing happened so long ago I don’t see how we can ever expect to know al! the details. Tell mo your theory, if you have one." "That's the trouble, I haven’t." -The real trouble, of course, is Mrs. Rainier." Curious, the way people sooner or later led the talk to her. Freeman, reticent at first about a former friend, saw no reason now to conceal his opinion of a former friend’s wife. “She’s an unusual sort of woman, Harrison." "Well, he's not so usual, either." "They get on well together? Is that your impression?" I answered guardedly: "I think she makes a good politician’s wife." “And I suppose, by the same token, you think ho makes a good politician?" “He has some of the attributes. Clever speaker and a good way with people." -When he’s In the mood. He Isn’t always. .. . Did you ever hear about the Bridgelow Antiquarian Dinner T‘ 1 shook my head. "It was—oh, several yean ago. Ho was supposed to be helping the candidate, and during the campaign we asked him to our annual beano—strictly non-party—just a semilaarned society, with the accent on the semi. I was president at the time, and Rainier waa next to me at the tabje. Halfway through his speech, which began pretty well, there was a Mt of a disturbance caused by <4d General Wych-Fur-lough fumbling in late and apologising—his car had broken down or something. He talked rather loudly, like moot deaf people, and of course it woo annoying th a speaker, but the whole incident was over in a minute, most people would have passed It off. Rainier, however, ’ seemed to frecae up suddenly, couldn’t eaneaal the way bo felt about it, flniahod his speech almost immediately and left the table rather sooner than he decently could. I went out with hiss for a moment, told him frankly I thought his behavior had been rather childish—surely ago aad infirmity entitled poepls te some latiuxte—it wasn’t SO if tbere’d been any tntan- , tional discourtesy.

against Japan Germany and Italy, when five Axis newspapermen were detained in the United States, Lyle Wilson of the United Press and Brian Bell, manager of the Asso dated Press Washingion bureau called upon attorney-general Francis Biddle to suggest that none of tlie German and Italian newspapermen be locked up. Two foreign newspapermen were transferred from Ellis island to hotel custody. Immediately thereafter, in ordei that word might get to the Axis countries that their correspond, nt* were being well treated. Earl J Johnson, general new* manager of I the United Press, cabled the foli lowing message to United Press bureaus in London, Zurich, Vichy, Madrid. Lisbon and Anka:a with I the request that they disseminate , the information an widely a* possible so it would at least reach HerI lin and Rome* authorities. It not the United Press correspondents in I ! those capitals: "State department announce* It is arranging return of German and ; Italian newsmen with Axia diplomats. State department now has 1 ail seized Axis newsmen in hotels 1 at our request rather than in jails > wherefore assume Axis capital* will reciprocate."

United Pres* bureaus In Zurich and Stockholm issued the

low himself—something chemical, maybe, in the way we react to each other.’ I thought his explanation even more peculiar than his behavior.” I checked myself from commenting, and Freeman, noticing it, said: “Go on -what was it you were going to ask?” ”1 was just wondering—ls It possible he had one of those submerged memories—of having met the General before?" “1 thought of that later on, but it didn’t seem likely they could ever have met. He didn’t even know the General’s name. And if they had met before, I still can't think of any reason for antagonism—the old boy was just a fussy, simple-minded, stupid fellow with a distinguished military career and a repertoire of exceptionally dull stories about hunting.” “Was Mrs. Rainier at tho dinner?" "No, she wouldn’t come to anything / was president of—that’s very certain.” He added, as if glad to get back to tho subject: "A strange woman. I'm not sure I altogether trust her—and that isn’t because I don’t particularly like her. It’s something deeper. She always seems to me to be hiding something. 1 suppose it's part of my job to have these psychic feelings about people. ... You know about her famous parties?” -Who doesn't? I've sampled them.” “Mind you, let’s he fair. She’s not a snob in the ordinary sense— I mean about birth or money. Os course it would be too ridiculous if she were—since she began with neither herself. But what exactly is it that she goes for? Brains? Celebrity? Notoriety? I went to Kenmore once, and I must admit she plays the game loathsomely well. But all this relentless celebrityhunting and party-giving doesn’t make a home—and I’m blamed if 1 know what it does make.” “Some people say it's made Rainier’s career." "I’ve heard that too—from people who don't like him. The people who don’t like ha? will tell you her methods have actually held him back. Still, I don't deny she's a good mate for a man of affairs. The real point is whether Rainier's life ought to be cluttered up with business and politics at all.” “What do you mean t" -Simply that I’ve always considered him—abstractly—one of the rare spirits of our time, so that vaccess of the kind he has attained and may yet attain becomes a detestable self-betrayal." "So you think the marriage was a mistake?* “Not at all, If he felt ho had to have that sort of life." " Whst other sort of life could he have had?” “Out of my province to say. I'm talking about the quality of the man, not his opportunities. I suppose it wasn't his fault his father left him a small empire i to look after—steelworks and newspapers and interlocking holding . companies and whatnot—all more . or less bankrupt, though people I didn’t know it st the time. Even . the seat in Parliament was a sort : of family inheritance ho bad to take i over." “Like Miss Hobbs?" i “Yea, like her—just as idiotic but . not so loyal. Ho only scraped in by . twelve votes last time.... But since ■ you mention the Hobbs woman. let , ms assure you she’s a modernistic I jewel compared with the old butler t they keep at Stourteu ... Shsldaa, i I thing his name is." i “You don’t like him either?" , Freeman shrugged. “It isn't that , I mind his eccentric impertinences t —Scottish servants are like that t and one takes it from them—even I Quean Victoria had to. What makes r me really uncomfortable is the same i feeling I have about Mrs. Rainier — I that he’s hiding something." . “Maybe they’re hiding something - together?" I His smile was of another kind . aad die answer mine. “Yau > haven't been to Stourton yet. have t you? It’s aa amaaing hiding place . for anything they've get te hide."
