There Austrian and German police officers examined all my papers, . had me searched, turned out all my =. pockets and did a lot of typewritA ing on sonie kind of form. ’ : . | They seemed especially interested EE in my camera, and asked a lot of } questions about it. It was pretty - hard for me to explain the camera 1 to them as we didn’t talk each ; other's language.. But I told them I was a representative of the Amer- ® ' jcan press. : That didn’t seem to satisfy them because I was taken to another bu 3 reau, where I was put through the same kind of thing. © I was getting impatient by this i time, so I pulled out my telegraphed instructions and ‘showed them to the palice. “How. long must I wait?” I asked them. - “I'm pretty anxious to get " out to make pictures of the arrival of Hiter.” : They smiled. | Origins Questioned ( 2 They began questioning me again. « -But this time they asked me whether I was 4 Jew. ‘Was the firm I worked for Jewish?

He will fix you up with permission to take pictures.” So I thanked them and followed the man they had pointed out to ~ me.

First they put me in a cell by my- : self. Later, they changed me twice ‘to other cells and finally I landed in | a cell with four Austrians who were : | being held én various charges of “t _ suspicion. Five in One Cell

There were five of us in a cell six feet long by 10 wide, with one small « window for air. There were no cots to sleep on, just plain, broad, wooden platforms. At night the police s . tossed in a flithy matiress and a blanket full of holes. I slept: under my overcoat which they allowed me to keep, aithough they took away my» necktie and suspenders so I wouldn’t hang myself, I suppose, $e .~ I nearly starved. .The three “meals” served daily consisted of a slice of -black bread and a cup of eo some queer soup, nothing more. { I begged for permission to tele- ‘# graph or telephone my office in : Paris or London to tell them of my EE plight, but it was in vain. No jail i official would even reply.

spoke good English. Another Cross-Examination

They now took me to another bureau and read me a lot of questions from a long typewritten list, including, once more, questions about how many papers my employers served and all sbout my own family and my ancestors. 1 - Finally, they said I could go.
