Counterspy

(June 8, 1942) A wealthy businessman in Washington, D.C. commits suicide after betraying his country. He was goaded into shooting himself by a female enemy agent. The script was subsequently heard on "Counterspy" on June 13, 1945 (see cat. #76649).

They are the dread of the German Gestapo the Italian ogre and the Japanese black dragon. Imagine the ace counterspy of them all as David Harding specially appointed with the authority to work however or wherever he will. Three weeks ago in Washington a very prominent bachelor by the name of William R Terrace stood in the centre of his very expensive apartment. The time was 11.25pm. A dim light burns on a little ebony side table. Mr. Terrace stood there his face ashen white and great beads of perspiration stood out on his forehead
