Boss of Europe's Newest Spy
NetworkVeteranof Long Standing
Bonn. Germany '11 p Th
boss of Europe's newest spy net
work carries a heavy revolver,
flanks himself with armed body
guards and has awarning on his
ate, "Dangerous Dog."
He is a man of many faces, but
only one photograph of him ex
ists and that is at least 15 yeaiS
old.
He went Into business official
ly only this week, but at 55
he is an old hand at spying on
the Rusns. He has an estimat
ed 4,000 agentP operating from
East Germany to Red China.
Lt. Gen. Reinhard Gustav Geh
len became "president of the
Federal Intelligence Service"
throueg a decree signed by West
German President Theodor
Heuss. His deputy, whose iden
tity is a secret like those of all
others in the Gehlen organiza
tion, was called "vice president."
The service's official published
budget is only $1.2 million an
nually and its staff on paper is
1.181 men. Gehlen's salary is
$6,800 a year.
But the secret funds, for which
Gehlen is accountable only to.
Chancellor Konrad Adenauer,
are believed four times the list
ed amount.
Few Germans could recognize
Gehlen, but those in the know
say he is slender, of medium
height, with sparse fair hair, a
high forehead, thin, tight lips,
deep-set eyes and cu?iously pro
truding ears. Sometimes he sports
a small mustache, sometimes he
is clean-shaven. He has been
variously described as looking
like a history professor, a travel
ing salesman and a retired army
man which is what he is.
His career can be dug out of
the old Wehrmacht files. He
was born at Erfurt, now in the
Soviet zone, son of a regular
aiQny officer. He entered the
army in 1920 as an artillery
lieutenant. By 1942 he was in
command of an artillery regi
ment on the Russian front. That
year he became chief of the
"Foreign Armies East" section
of the Supreme command, and
.is talents as a spy-master blos
somed and bloomed.
Coordinating military intelli
gence about the Red armies, he
developed a network o sprfes,
mostly renegade Russian prison
ers and deserters reaching far
into the Soviet hinterland.
In May, 1945, the advancing
American army captured Gehlen
and his staff in Bavaria. With
him he had complete files on his
work behind the Russian lines,
although it was months before a
U.S. counter-intelligence interro
gator spotted the haul and ship
ped it and Gehlen to the Penta
gon, o
In 1946 the Americans sent
Gehlen back to Germany with
an agreement to build an Ameri
can-sponsored spy network to
keep an eye on the Russians.

ing. X-rays showed a big ulcer
in his stomach. But he had no
pain. Why? Turning to him, I
asked, "Can a dentist hurt you?"
And he said, "Not a bit; I re
cently had six"teeth pulled and
I wouldn't take any anesthetic;
I did not need it." His ulcer
could not hurt him; it could
only make him retch.
Dr. Alvarez hopes his readers
will understand that it would
bo impossible for him to answer
requests for information or to
attempt to diagnose by mail.

Cora D. I don't want Grand
ma to live with us.
Mrs. L. D. We must put up
and shut up.
Cora D. I am 16 years old
and am considered pretty ma
ture for my age, so I feel I have
a right to have a say in our fam
ily problems.
The problem is rny grand
mother, who recently came to
live with us. She used to have
her own apartment, but she has
not been well, so my mother
made her come to live with us
Since she has come, we have
all been miserable. Grandma
fusses at all of us, complaining
about this and that. My brothers
are too wild and fresh and I go
out too much. She even picks at
my mother all the time, telling
her how to cook or to stop talk
ing so much on the telephone.
My aunt is very rich and has
a big home and I don't see why
Grandma can't go to live with
her. She wouldn't interfere with
other people so much there. I
must share my room with Grand
ma, so it's bardest on me.
Mrs. L. D. I didn't want to
have my mother stay with us
and 1 avoided it until the last
possible moment. It's true that
she is a very difficult person to
live with. She has always been
self-centered and critical of ev
eryone around her. She is now
worse than ever. We are cramp
ed in our apartment and I feel
terrible that Cora car't have her
own room, but there is nothing
to be done about it.
It s true that my sister is in a
better position to care for my
mother from a material point of
view, but the two of them don't
get along at all. My sister has
contributed generously to my
mother's support, but it is out
of the question for my mother to
live with her.
Cora has been making things
twice as difficult byalking back
to my mother and provoking
quarrels. She is old enough to
know better. We must put up
and shut up.

The Council: Mrs. L. D. shoutt
not blame Cora for making
things "difficult." The girl is
simply reflecting her mother's
attitude. Mrs. L. D. has not ac
cepted her mother in. her home
in any more than the physical
sense and, as a result, has cre
ated a situation that is close to
unbearable for herself and the
family.
If Mrs. L. Lt feels it is best for
her mother to make her home
with her, she must make the
mental adjustment required to
take this woman in. If she has
love and a sense of duty toward
her mother and she must have
these if she takes her in at all
she should keep this love and
sense of duty uppermost in her
mindand try to transmit both to
her husband and children.
If the children realize that
Grandma is loved and wanted,
despite her faults, they will be
more willing to accept her. If
Grandma feels loved and wanted
and not merely "put up" with,
she too is likely to become hap
pier and more agreeable.
Once Mrs. L. D. accepts the
fact that there are positive rea?
sons why she wants her mother
to be with her, she will make a
more active effort to adjust the
entire family life to the situa
tion. Since L. D.'s sister has been
generous in her financial help,
perhaps she can continue this
and the family can take a larger
apartment so that both Cora and
her grandmother can have their
own rooms. This would make a
big difference in everyone's hap
piness. Under no circumstances
should Cora be permitted to
show her grandmother any dis
respect. (C) 1957. General Features Corp.
Reed's Successor May
Come From Lower Court
Washington (U.R) President
Eisenhower probably will choose
a successor to retiigng Supreme
Court Justice Stanley S. Reed
from among judges on lower
federal courts, administration
sources said today.
There was some speculation
that Attorney General Herbert
Brownell Jr. might be in line to
replace Reed, who announced
his retirement Thursday after
19 years on the high court. But
the post seemed more likely to
go to a member of a lower court,
probably a U.S. Circuit Court of
Appeals.
The Hypersensiliye Person
Every so often I see a woman
who makes an awful fuss abot
some stiffness in her shoulder
or her hand.
She says the
pain is more
than she can
bear, and yet
my examina
tion shows
that all she
has is a bit of
fibrositis such
as I have
Aivarer walked around
with cheerfully for most of my
life. Although I am hypersensi
tive, my fibrositis rarely both
ers me enough so that I must
taken even a tablet of aspirin.
Then, why is my poor patient so
knocked out by her pain? Why
is she so frightened by it? Why
has she taken to her bed because
of it?
Perhaps her doctor, who is so
sensitive himself that he cannot
imagine how a person can be
terribly hypersensitive, on be
ing called to her house, made
light of the matter, and thereby
offended her. Perhaps he left
with the impression that he
thought she was imagining her
pain, and making too much of a
fuss. When I saw her, I said,
"No; I am sure this pain is rot
imaginary." I had known her
for years as a fine sensible wom
an. Because of her great hyper
sensitiveness, I would expect
her to suffer much more than I
do from the same stimulus. Her
dentist may tell me that she goes
to pieces nervously at the first
touch of his drill; I can stand
it for a short while; and one of
my friends who is quite insensi
tive goes to sleep in his dentist's
chair, no matter what is done
to him!
Many women are terriblv sen
sitive to some of the stimuli that
others of us humans do not feel.
They cannot stand slight drafts,
or a pencil squeaking on a slate,
or the designs on certain wall
papers, or bright lights, or cer
tain smells, or Ravel's Bolero!
Some can be disturbed by hear
ing their heartbeats at night,
or they cannot stand the ticking
of their husband's watch on his
dresser, or they can sense a
storm coming 100 miles away,
and can get from it a migrainous
headache, a stomach-ache, or
some pains in their joints.
Sensitive to Heat, Cold
Some are so sensitive to light
that in the mornings they very j
gradually adapt their eyes, first
to a little electric light, and later
to daylight. Others are very sen- j
sitive to heat or cold. Many i
hypersensitive women react j
wrongly and violently to small '
doses of morphine or barbitu-;
rates or codeine. Many have so
sensitive a skin that it breaks
out if they use a new cosmetic :
or wear a fur collar. j
Some extremely hypersensi
tive persons react keenly to the
feelings of the people about
them. They know instantly j
whether a person is friendly or j
hostile. Even when on the sur-!
face, the person is courteous '
and pleasant, these people sense '
the hostility within, and are .
distressed by it.
Many of the gifted women
who make their living reading ;
palms are hypersensitives who j
can sense the many things that j
most of us are not conscious of
in those about us.
People ask me what a hyper
sensitive woman can do to "help
herself. Obviously, it can help
her greatly to know what her
trouble is, and why she is so
often feeling much pain and dis
tress. Often she feels pain when
another person would feel only
fatigue or an ache. If she knows
these things she will not be so
alarmed when she feegs uncom
fortable. Just as there are hypersensi
tive persons, so also there are
are insensitive ones, In the old
lluve nn tVlo Uai-hnmr fri jr.
uuj.? w.. iiiv uaiuaij uuaai ill
oan rrancisco mere was a man
who, on discovering that he
could never feel pain, turned
this to good account. He would i
go into a saloon and, for a few j
beers, he would let anyone hit
him on the jaw as hard as he
wished!
May Not Notice Disease o
The trouble with being in
sensitive is that if a serious dis
ease comes, it may not be no
ticca until it is too late. For
instance, I remember a very
insensitive man I once saw who
looked very ill and said he "felt
rotten." He had fever and a high
"white blood count," but he
had no pain in his abdomen.
Fortunately, I got a hunch that
he could not feel disease if he
had it, and because he was so
sick I had his abdomen quickly
explored. As I feared, the sur
geon found a burst appendix, j
iviany insensitive persons wiui a
slowly-growing cancer of the
stomach never feel anything un
til the tumor has grown out into I
their nerves. Then it is too late ;
to remove it. j
One of my doctor friends who j
was so insensitive that he would
have little tumors burned off
his skin without asking for any
anesthesia never felt pain any
where until he was 75. Then,
one day, he got a pain in his
abdomen. He was so sure that
in his particular case this must
be a terrible danger signal that
immediately he had his stomach
x-rayed, and there was a big
cancer of the stomach which
must have been growing silently
for several years. It was too far
gone to be removed -entirely.
Another man complained to me
only of spells of violent retch-
