Sept. 20 (INS) Detailed De-tailed documentary evidence that seven of the highest nazi leaders beneath Adolf HiIIft have prepared for war or revolution at home by depositing large fortunes abroad and by taking out huge foreign insurance policies was revealed to me today by representatives of one of the oldest and most famous institutions in-stitutions of Its kind In the world. Hitler alone among the highest nazi chieftains has abroad no assets as-sets which could be discovered. Two years of expert investigation investiga-tion all over th world in almost every country on earth and among a score of banking Institutions has established, however, that Goering, Hess, Goebbels, Von Ribbentrop, Ley, Himmler and Strelcher all have deposited In foreign neutral countries cash Investments and insurance in-surance totaling $34,873,500. It may be recalled that according to nazi law It is a penitentiary or death penalty offense for any German Ger-man citizen to possess undeclared foreign currency or other assets abroad. It is notable that the seven nazis named in this list include Hitler's own choice for his successor Field Marshal Hermann Wilhelm Goering Goer-ing and for Goering's successor, Rudolph Hess, deputy leader of the nazi party, as well as Heinrich Himmler, head of the secret police; Robert Ley, chief of the labor front, and Dr. Paul Joseph Goebbels, Goeb-bels, who is richest in foreign cash holdings, owning over four and a half million dollars In currency. South American. Japanese. Luxembourg, Lux-embourg, Swiss, Dutch, Egyptian, Estonian, Latvian and Finnish banks are the depositories for the nazi fortunes and considerable sums are held In the United States by nazi friends and German shipping ship-ping companies.
