nationality are seldom used as it is easier and safer to employ young Italians German recruiting agents assisted by Italian republican fascists such as the notorious David recruit these youngsters with promises of large rewards black mail threats and clever propaganda designed to make espionage appear glamorous The recruiting agents haunt small cafes and restaurants used by black marketeers and petty criminals Sometimes they are even found in prisons and in ternment camps attempting to per suade inmates to work for tne greater glory of the German Reich Recruits considered suitable are taught wireless telegraphy and Al lied military organization at train ing centres in German occupied Italy The lack of success with which the German secret service is meet ing in liberated Italy is indicated by the fact that between June 4 and Oct 1 the Allied security services captured 223 enemy agents So rarely are the missions suc cessfully accomplished that when one agent a girl now in Allied cus tody
