SAFETY FOR 500 JEWS
RANSOMED FROM GESTAPO. Energetic Mr. Albert F. Coyle, international lawyer visiting London from New York, told the “Sunday Express” he had spent the last three years travelling backwards and forwards between New York and Berlin arranging the emigration of Jews from Germany to Cuba and Mexico.
He said: “I act on behalf of relatives in the United States. They pay me to negotiate with the German authorities and entrust me with the
necessary finance. “Right now I am fixing things for 3G people to quit Germany.
“I make four or five trips to Europe a year, and in the past three years have obtained the freedom of nearly 500 people. “Many of them were either in prison- or in concentration camps. “I rarely see the people themselves but deal directly with the Gestapo, the German secret police. They are not a bad bunch of boys when you handle them the right way.”
