The German military authorities at

clashed with the populace. this time
over the refusal Of Lille factories TO
make sacks for use by the Germans
as sand bags for their defense works.
Unable TO procure the sacks, the Ger

that an amount equivalent to the out
put Of the Lille factories would be
manufactured in Germany and the cost
of production assessed against the
city, The strong room Of the town
was forced and S75.000 was deducted
from the civic funds,

this payment.
