"The Lastern zone is in particular the object of these methods copie'.from Chicago.
The (frontier along ithe Elbe,', established by General Clay,', created a'hinterlexnd'
as the base for the ' employment, and training of the groups of diversionists.
the teeming posts of.' active Nazis, available thanks to the denazification farce,
in the Bizone, constitute a vast reservoir of individuals, ready for these tcisks.
"In Alleiidorf, the counter-espionage organization of General Guderirn, vho has

General Fielder is directing an espionage center, specializing in the Eastern zone.
In Uelzen, a training college for agents has been established in which, amiong
others. the British officers Colonel Cromwell and I;ha'or Milken are col1aborating.
"A good fishing ground is formed by the internment camps, chose occupants are
set free on the condition that they permit themselves to be, misused for a time
as agents and provoZa.teurs in the Eastern zone, In addition, there is a sv,arm
of murderers, robbers, plunderers, and racketeers who are supported as welcome
suxiliar? -s with a view to the s t..r.ring-up of unrest to the, extent that they are i 11
given refuge 1cehind1the zone boundary without there being any need for, them to

the arrest of a German soy in the service of British intell.genc.:
"The German painter Robert (Windig?), resident in Uelzen in' the Brit-sh zone, has
illegally crossed the zonal frontier as a British spy. He surrendered himself I',

Tightening of Borde?^ Control as Counter-Espionage Measure: During recent weeks!
jj
the Soviet-controlled German radio has paid increasing attention to an alleged growth',
of "illegal crossings" of the zonal' borders; and last week, the Soviet rr.dio itself
took up this subject. The "border are said to iucluc'e biackmarketears,

road and rail control is allegedly directed. in this connection!, an AFP dispatch reports:
"Certain observers In Berlin note that the reinforcement of control measures taken
by the Soviet authorities coincided with the period of the spring maneuvers. They
