They had an introduction 2/04<1/dS/- to Tan Kim Tok in Batavia from his brother‘in Formosa, but they had no idea that he was a drug trafficker. They were released after an investigation lasting two months as they were found to be innocent. The Netherlands Government has informed the Secretariat (April 21st, 1937) that the correct quantities seized in this case are Heroin : 3 kg. 743 grs. (not 4 kg. 500 grs.) ; Morphine : 13 grammes. No. 421. — Seizure at San Francisco, California, ex the “ Heiyo Maru ”, coming from Hong-Kong, August 4th, 1936. Brandstatter case. Rference : The Mexican permanent delegate accredited to the League of fô CS 300'c) 1 Nations reported on April 27th, 1937, that, on the basis of information page 30; ' obtained from the United States authorities, strict vigilance had been 0.C.S./Conf.l09(a). exercised for some months past in the ports and frontier towns over u the arrivals and departures of certain foreigners in touch with well- 1281 ,'388(299). known international traffickers who formed a well-organised gang with 26110/387. headquarters at Shanghai and branches at Havana, New York and Mexico. News having been received, in July 1936, that Brandstatter was coming from Spain to Mexico carrying with him a large quantity of drugs, arrangements were made to await his arrival at the port of Vera Cruz. Brandstatter landed at Havana and entrusted the greater part of his luggage to a German named Oscar Isaak who was carefully searched. Other passengers, who were known to have made friends with Brandstatter during the voyage, were also searched but no confirmation of the information received from the United States could be obtained. Some days later, Brandstatter arrived by aeroplane at Merida, Yucatan, and the authorities examined his luggage with the same negative result. Brandstatter was, however, deported to Havana on account of his papers not being in order. Later, it was learned th at Brandstatter had been expelled from Cuba and that, before arriving in New York, he had committed suicide. A United States Customs employee on the Mexican frontier made a statement which gave very important information revealing the existence in Mexico of various agents of the Brandstatter gang, among whom were Judas Furstenberg and Icek Katz, together with two men of less importance and unconfirmed complicity, Majlack Salve and Mochen Eghise. The premises occupied by these four persons were searched by the Mexican authorities and papers, which at first seemed to be of no importance, were found on the premises of the two first-named. When these persons were questioned, however, it was found that they were in correspondence with Brandstatter, José Buchwald and Israel Borenstein, all international drug traffickers. Furstenberg and Katz were arrested, but owing to lack of evidence they were released. In spite of this, the Mexican authorities are convinced that these persons are secret agents of the Brandstatter gang, and a strict watch will be kept on their movements. It was proposed to arrange for their expulsion from the country but they claim to be Mexican citizens by naturalisation, and unless the authorities find th a t their statements in this connection are false, this procedure will not be possible.

Today in stark contrast, an entire fleet, which aided that destruction lies silently on the bottom of the lagoon-.After almost 70 years these vessels remain a museum to that conflict-but have been reborn-brought back to life by mother nature. I first visited these wrecks back in the early 80’s-about the same time as my adventures began in Egypt. But these wrecks are a beacon to the rest of the world in terms of conservation. In those 35 years I have seen little change in the Truk wrecks save some damage caused by livaboard vessels. Indeed the coral and fish life seems to get better as time goes on. Those responsible in Egypt should take note! The wrecks are all very well documented and this publication is a mere introduction to the wrecks and is intended as an introduction for those thinking of visiting Truk-I have selected a handful of my favourites-after 8 visits that list is growing!
