A great net of spy-catchers was spread over the entire country, from New York to the smallest desert hamlet in New Mexico, by the Federal government yesterday. The spy-catching plan will give the government an espionage agent in every city, town, village or countryside, throughout the nation, ready to transmit to the federal authorities every scrap of information as to threatened disloyalty or plots against the welfare of the country.
There will be thousands of these agents, all of them in more or less close touch with the government heads at Washington, and all under orders to make immediate and complete reports on every detail of spy information reaching them.
