Nazis Still
Plotting To
Regain Rule
FRANKFURT, Germany,
April 1 A') American Intelli
gence officers said today that
several nazl subversive move
ments still were plotting against
the allies in Germany and that
Sunday's roundup of nearly
1000 Hitler youlli conspirators
was "only the beginning."
The officers said counter-espionage
agents were working
"day and night" to break ud the
last vestiges of nazl resistance
which came into the open with
the weekend sweep on followers
of captured Arthur Axmann,
former head of tho Hitler youth
movement.
The operation against the Ax
mann group Is still going on,
it was said, although only rem
mints of tho group remain.
Funds Seised
Virtually all the funds which
Hitler, In tho last days of Ber
lin handed over to Axmann to
keen alive the nazl philosophy.
were seized when Willi Hcldc-
maim, Axmann's key hench
man, was captured.
About 20 per cent of the tar
set susuccts In the weekond
roundup had left or fled their
addresses w n e n the agents
struck, however.
No casualties were reported
among the 7000 allied combat
troops and countcr-cspionago
agents who participated in tho
raids.
U. S. army headquarters said
that incomplete reports indicat
ed the manhunt was "carried
out without unusual incidents."
Most of the suspects seized of
fered no resistance.
Escaped
Axmann, who Is being ques
tioned at an American intern
ment camp, fought In tho battle
of Berlin. Escaping on foot
from the German capital, he
went to Bavaria, where ho had
Instructed all leaders of the Hit
ler youth movement and the
German girls movement to or
ganize werewolf sabotage
This plan failed when Willi
Hcldemann, 32, another accused
leader to whom Hitler jugend
funds had been entrusted, de
cided that active opposition to
the Americans was useless and
that a long-term project to
bring back nazism had a much
better chance of success.
Heidcmann, who is also un
der . arrest began his campaign
to recruit leaders in the Bavar
ian village of Bad Toclz, which
was headquarters for tho U. S.

Reds Defeated
In Greek Vote
ATHENS, April 1 (P) Lead
ers of the conservative populist
party claimed a victory today in
Greece's Sunday elections and
declared the size of the vote was
an overwhelming defeat for com
munists and other left-wing par
ties who had waged a campaign
for the voters to stay away from
the polls.
The election possibly paved
the way for the eventual return
to the throne of King Gcorgo II.
Clashes between communists
and government forces resulted
in 20 deaths, most of which oc
curred Friday and Saturday.
Order prevailed in most sections
of the country during the actual
voting.
Constantin Tsaldaris, chief of
the royalist division of the popu
lists, said "as a result of the ma
jority with which the popullBts
carried the election it (the party)
will undertake to regulate the
political situation with full re
