Aug. IL. via Berlin London, Aug. Ia
On account Of the protests Of France
against the forcible removal by the
German authorities of inhabitants Of
French cities in the occupied area and
the representations that hardships
have resulted from this procedure, a
correspondent of the Associated Press
on the occasion of visit to the Somme
front investigated tho conditions under
which civilians from Lille. Turcoing
and RouhaiX uuartered at various
points in eastern France are living.
The proclamation posted by the Ger
mans said that since the English block
ade rendered the problem Of feeding
the population Of Belgium and the oc-
cupied part of France daily more diff
cult and since a call to agricultural
workers by the German authorities had
not been answered the Germans We're
obliged to move to the country Ger
tain parts of the population. The
proclamation was posted on April 10
and at midnight of April "a the Ger
man troops aroused the inhabitants in
certain quarters of the three towns
telling them to assemble in front of
their houses
officers then picked the following
persons for transportation Males of
military age or able bodied males who
were not engaged in fixed trades or
other occupations; whole families un-
employed and without financial sup
port and unemployed females. In all
cases the instructions were to select
persons either familiar with agriculture
or suited for it.
German officers in charge of the
sportation admit that mistakes
were made in good many instances,
hut these have since been rectified
More than 1000 mon and women are
said to have returned to their home
towns since the transportation move
ment began. Nearly $1,000 persons
were removed from their homes.
