DISCOVERY ON FRONTIER.
VICTIM OF THE NAZIS,
DEAD BODY FOUND
Received August 27, 11.15 a.m. INNSBRUCK, Aug. 26
The discovery of the bound corpse of Eugene Leitermoser, a young Innsbruck business man, by the roadside at Pflach, in. the Tyrol, led to the disclosure that he went to Germany in 1933 and joined the Austrian Legion. He returned last June and became a secret agent for the Austrian police. Consequently, Nazis lured him to Reutte, where he was bundled into a car with the intention of taking him to Germany. It is believed he received too much chloroform and died, the body being thrown out near the German frontier.
