Stamp of previous owner General Julius Klein on fep. Julius Klein 1901-1984 was an American journalist spy business executive and Army general. Klein was born in Chicago in 1901. He was interned by German authorities during World War I but escaped to France and joined the U.S. Army as a spy. After serving as a spy in Germany in WWI Klein began his career in the 1920s as a criminal reporter for The State Herald and initiated the first German language radio broadcasts in the United States. Klein also originated the South Pacific edition of The Stars and Stripes military newspaper. In 1933 Klein joined the Illinois National Guard becoming a lieutenant colonel in 1941. He formulated the Combat Public Relations plan dealing with psychological warfare and propaganda . During this time Klein conducted domestic intelligence operations authorized by both Illinois governor Henry Horner and Colonel later General George C. Marshall. Over the years Klein had built a relationship with German Consul Georg Gyssling which continued until Gyssling was recalled to Germany in 1941. Klein's letter of commendation was one of the factors that saved Gyssling from being convicted as a war criminal. On 20 July 1944 Claus von Stauffenberg and other conspirators attempted to assassinate Adolf Hitler Führer of Nazi Germany inside his Wolf's Lair field headquarters near Rastenburg East Prussia. The name Operation Valkyrie—originally referring to part of the conspiracy—has become associated with the entire event. The apparent aim of the assassination attempt was to wrest political control of Germany and its armed forces from the Nazi Party including the SS and to make peace with the Western Allies as soon as possible. The details of the conspirators' peace initiatives remain unknown but they would have included unrealistic demands for the confirmation of Germany's extensive annexations of European territory. The plot was the culmination of efforts by several groups in the German resistance to overthrow the Nazi German government. Over the following weeks Himmler's Gestapo driven by a furious Hitler rounded up nearly everyone who had the remotest connection with the plot. The discovery of letters and diaries in the homes and offices of those arrested revealed the plots of 1938 1939 and 1943 and this led to further rounds of arrests including that of colonel general Franz Halder who finished the war in a concentration camp. Under Himmler's new Sippenhaft blood guilt laws many relatives of the principal plotters were also arrested in the immediate aftermath of the failed plot. The failure of the assassination attempt and the intended military coup d'état that was to follow led the Gestapo to arrest more than 7000 people of whom they executed 4980.
