HIMMLER'S COUSIN ARRESTED
B WILLI FRISCHAUER
ALFRED KLEIN, a cousin of Gestapo Chlef Himmler and himself special Gestapo representative in Prague, has been arrested.
Ten of his closest col- Jaborators have been dis. missed.
Klein's job was to super- vise Jewish emigration.
Ilis arrest is said to have been ordered by Goering following, reports of wide spread corruption in connec- tion with the transfer of Jews to Poland.
Jewish property and for tunes are alleged to have been confiscated for the personal benefit of Klein and his colleagues.
As a result of the scandal, the deportation of Czechs Jews to Poland has been suspended until the emigra- tion office in Prague has been reorganised,
Jewish quarters in Ger many fear that emigration may be stopped for the duration of war.
