NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Ernst ("Putzi") Hanfstaengl '09, former Nazi foreign press chief and piano playing friend of Hitler, is being held in "protective custody" in a Canadian concentration camp, according to his son, Egon Hanfstaengl '43, who yesterday said that he had recently received letters from his father.

Hanfstaengl is allowed to write 27 lines a week from his prison "overlooking a lake" somewhere in Canada.

Hanfstaengl was transferred from England sometime in July.
