"The Farmers of south Georgia

am satisfied that the reduction will
average at least rs percent if not

This. reduction is in keeping with

week ahead Of the schedule of the
Third Army in it's march toward the
Rhine. 1t was in a suburb of Coblenz
that the Germans had hidden their
booty-in the basement of a German
wenlans LGuse. In some way the cob
lenz police heard of the thefts and for
several days and nights had guards
watching for the thieves to appear to
cart away their loot.
When two supposedly German sol
diers appeared one night with sacks
and started to pack UP the articles

RiGerman commands to halt"
the German policeman began to fire
One man fell, wounded in the arm,
and the other, after a chase, was
caught. When the two were taken to
the German police station it was dis
covered they were Americans and
they were held until officers of the
American army arrived.
Under the circumstances, after an
investigation the Americans decided
not to file any charge against the
German policeman who had shot
Richman.
