branches for air, ground and

ended it sooner.

Americans Capture; Secret
Nazi Files With Names of
fe . . jf: ,
I y- . -it
8 Million
By EDWARD
BERLIN, Oct. I7.-P)-American fmilitary authorities dis
closed today that they had seized the ngzi partes master person
nel files liating nearly 8,000,000 party inembers, including thou
sands who were members of nazi-zponsored groups in the United
States, Argentina, and other foreign countries. j;
The files, which also contain the names of another 2,000,000
who were rejected -as members
and a "blacklist" of those expell
ed from the party, were regarded
as among the most important docu
mentary catches yet made.
Apparently those belonging to
nazi-sponsored groups abroad were
considered as gbod nazis as those
at home. They lived ' in, virtually
every country and were particu
larly numerous in. such South
American countries as Argentina.
Their cards were grouped together
under the Auslands Deutsche or
ganization. The first 200,000 j cards were
found three months ago, but the
public safety division of the U.
S. military government, requested
that the j discovery be kept secret
until the remainder i of the files
could be assembled from a half.
dozen localities and placed under
strict guard. !
Portland Man -Led j
The job was accomplished by
a team under Mai J W i 1 1 i a m
Browne, former chief of detectives
at Portland, Ore. The nazis had
ordered the records burned a
week before the Americans ar
rived, but the so-called' German
efficiency broke dowrr and they
lay untouched for weeks.
The files gave the allies the
first official figures, on the num
ber of nazis party members. Dis
counting the number of deaths.
expulsions and resignations, Amer
ican authorities estimated the
party at its peak had about 7,000,-
000 active adherents.!
Aspirants Listed
The , files contained a careful
record of every person wbo joined
the party or who aspired to join.
The record of"bne rejected appli
cant living In Germany contained
a plea addressed to Adolf Hitler
on his behalf by Fritz Kuhn, for
mer bund leader in New York.
The rejected man had a brother
in New York who was a faithful
nazi, Kuhn wrote, asking that Hit-'
ler review the case with this in
mind. Hitler's action was not not
ed.
There were four sets of cards
in the elaborate files.
The main ones were member
ship cards which at first were
yellow, but which later were
changed to green,' when they were
enlarged to include more detailed
information. A photograph of each
member as supposed r to be at
tached to his card, but some of
these were missing.
Districts Noted
The second set included blue
cross-indexed cards listing mem
bers by their gau (district). For
