From: U.S. Army. European Command.Intelligence Division, Wartime activities of the German diplomatic and military services during World War II, November 18, 1949: «Teletype Operator.

Mentioned by Hans BRANDES as PAUL‘s goon (OMGUS, External Assets Investigation Unit, Abwehr):

«I should like to add that Mr. PAUL lately addressed to me some letters In which he tried by way of extortion to obtain from me a certain amount of Swiss Francs. He threatened me with publications in the press concerning a «previous activity» of mine, and also with an action through the Public Prosecutor’s office. I left all these letters unanswered. Some 5 or 6 weeks ago, a confidential man of Mr. PAUL ‘s named OBORIL, an Austrian national, made his appearance coming from London and allegedly working with British Military Government. He brought me a proposition by Mr. PAUL according to which I was to pay him (OBORIL) a certain amount of DM so that the 100,000 Pesetas matter be liquidated. I rejected this demand. Mr. OBORIL told me that Mr. PAUL is active in the British Secret Service in Spain and that he has far reaching connections in London which were liable to bring severe damage to me. This was his last threat which I left also unheeded.

I did not inform Mr. PAUL or Mr. OBORIL of the transaction in Lisbon 1945, as to my mind a return of Official or State’s moneys was involved which were no longer Mr. PAUL ‘s nor Mr. OBORIL‘s business. Wiesbaden, the 26th of April 1949.

From the office of Attache D.P. Medalie . February 8, 1944:

Subject is involved in the Countess LAMSDORFF case. Lives in Madrid. She works for a Japanese newspaper in the afternoons; seems so enthusiastic that she is going to study Japanese. She is a very good friend of Jose MIERA , who was head of the Spanish workers in Germany; also a friend of CRON, Minister of Labor. MIERA brought subject to Spain and introduced her to his friends here. Subject told source that an American called METZ and his wife , Princess of CROY (German) are her best friends. She has said , in granting permission to remain in Spain, that the Germans wanted her for espionage work , but claims to have refused. She is keeping Countess LAMSDORFF‘s clothes for her but claims to be convinced that the Countess is an Allied spy. Now subject is having an affair with a monarchist aviator,LEZAMA, who lives next door to her.

From a reliable source , March 23, 1944: At present works from 7 to 8 PM, translating at Spanish Ministry of Education. Subject told informant that her real fiance was a German born in Hamburg who is now in Lisbon. This man went to Lisbon and will inherit an English earldom after the war, according to subject, informant thinks it may be John JEPSEN. All subject’s friends seem to be in the Spanish Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

From a reliable source, March 25, 1944: Obviously working for German IS. Tried to pull wool by saying that the German Embassy had requested her to leave Spain , and also that she wanted to become Spanish and break with German Embassy. Subject says she gets 2,000 Pesetas a month from the Hamburg German in Lisbon. (John JEPSEN).

From Embassy. Lisbon June 19,1944: JEPSEN is said to be a fairly important Gestapo agent and the money he sends subject is presumably for work in his behalf.

From reliable source, July 12, 1944: Sunject has left the hotel Ram and gone to live in the apartment of J. M. GARCIA BRIZ. Source says real reason behind her leaving the Ham is that she had heard of German women and children being repatriated . and as she did not wish to return to Germany , thought it better to go into hiding, she left a huge bill unpaid in the Ram.

From same source July 24. 1944: GARCIA BRIZ had a meeting with the Gestapo chief in the German Embassy here to disccuss subject’s remaining in Spain. Gestapo man said subject had to return to Germany and had to stop seeing source as she was American, The Gestapo chief is going to GARCIA BRIZ‘ apartment to make subject sign a paper for visa to leave Spain for Germany but Argentine Consul said he would give subject a visa for Argentina. Gestapo consider subject dangerous as they have given her until the 24th to decide.

From the same source , August 8, 1944: Roman BLANES has given subject 4,500 Pesetas for her bill at the Ram, is making her his «secretary» and is paying for her vacation in Malaga. The Bolivian passport BLANES offered her is out because someone told him she was not the type to be given such passport. Subject still living with GARCIA BRIZ and will go to Malaga when he goes to Argentina. Both the German Embassy and Consulate have told the Ram bill collector that they have no record of Irene.
