SAAR REFUGEES INCREASE.
Alsace-Lorraine Feeling Against Nazis
Grows.

Grows.
FORBACH, France, January ls
R)-The hapless line of emigrants
from the Saar doubled today as
feeling against Saar Nazis grew in
Alsace-Lorraine.
Rumors of impending preventive"
arrests of anti-NaziS in the Saar and
the announcement that Adolf Hitler
himself would visit the territory soon
after the League of Nations formally
transfers it to Germany March !
were said to have swelled the exodus
of refugees.

A full thousand, it was estimated
at sundown, had crossed the frontier
at Forbach and Sarreguemines, most
important Franch frontier points.
during the day. 1t was the busiest
day French officials have had, so
busy, one said, that I'VE no longer
have any time to listen to their tales
of woe"
About 5000 in all now have left the
territory and Max Braun, Socialist
leader who headed the fight in the
Saar for retention of League of Ma
tions rule, returned here today from
Geneva to repeat his assertion that
1900 would depart before the Nazis
take over
German speaking residents of AL
sace-Lorraine, meanwhile, said en-
phatically they have no intention of
replying aff1rrnatively to invitations
from Berlin to join the pan-German
movement.
On the contrary, they were clamor-
ing for protection for French products
now that the Saarlanders have clearly
chosen German sovereignty.
The bulk of those who have ar
rived thus far are those who were
actively engaged in the status que
campaign, or persons who say they
have been threatened by neighbors. or
business men complaining of threat
ened violence. There were also among
the refugees miners who assert they
have been replaced by unemployed
men who voted with the Nazis.
