KOPPS, REINHOLD (AKA JUAN MALER)

     According to Roy Godenau (see separate entry) Reinhold Kopps
 was an intelligence officer serving with the Abwehr (German
 military intelligence) in Albania, where he was engaged in
 "cleaning out" partisans.  After the war, Kopps worked out of the
 Vatican with the "ratline" before making good his own escape to
 South America.  Kopps took a list of Abwehr officers stationed
 throughout the world with him.

     Kopps now lives as Juan Maler in the town of San Carlos de
 Bariloche near the Chilean border.

     Kopps/Maler is a publisher of anti-masonic and antisemitic
 materials who employs Godenau as a traveling salesman for his
 literature.  Godenau has also admitted to "moving" money for
 Kopps, as well as serving as his go-between with other members of
 the Nazi movement in 52 countries.

     During the first week of April, 1993, S.W.C. researcher,
 Richard Eaton, flew to Argentina where he met with Kopps on three
 occasions.  During one of these meetings, Kopps provided Eaton
 with a letter of introduction to a contact in Luxembourg who
 could be trusted to funnel large sums of money to various neo-
 Nazi groups in Germany.

     Interestingly, Kopps also recommended Mark Weber (see entry)
 to Mr. Eaton for a separate project. (Request fascism SWC.oprep)
