GERMAN PLEDGES BROKEN
Teuton Actions Toward Deported
Belgians Reveals Brazen Procedure.

HAVRE. June 22.-The Belgian gov
eminent. in an official statement issued
here, declared that all the German
promises to repatriate the Belgian men
who were deported to Germany have
been brazenly broken.
AUTHORIZATION for these workmen to
leave Germany was issued only for a
period OF two weeks, the statement
said. and 1t was made conditional upon
the agreement of the deported persons
to continue to work four or Ave months.
Nearly all the Belgian workmen re-
fused to sign the agreement. Those
that were allowed to re-enter Belgium
were warned by the German military
authorities that their visit to their ma
tive country would last only two or
three weeks Thereafter, il the Bel
gians made resistance to the redeporta-
ton, they would be subjected to forcible
removal and punishment.
Under the foregoing circumstances,
the Belgian official statement said, in
conclusion, the Germans sent about
twenty repatriates back to Belgium or
put them to work at other tasks. The
workmen SO transferred, however. were
not allowed to take with them even the
things strictly necessary to their COM
fort and health.
