By the Associated Press.
PARIS, Oct. 6.-French troops dug
In on the muddy Saarland front to-
day In preparation against any
large-scale German offensive, while
French police rounded up Com
munist leaders behind the lines.
Havas CFrench) news agency pub
lished a dispatch from Luxembourg
reporting that heavy German artil-
lery bombarded Rusdorf, near Sierck,
which Is in France at the south
eastern tip of Luxembourg.
French military circles reported
large German troop movements.
Older German soldiers were re-
ported rapidly being replaced by
younger campaigners from the Ger
man armies that crushed Poland.
Last night was calm, however.
The war ministry communique said
only patrols were active in the Sec
tor southwest of Saarbruecken.
The strengthening Of French van
guards was ascribed in political
quarters to belief that the Nazi
peace offensive" had become a dead
issue even before Fuehrer Hitler's
address to the Reichstag today.
Police in Paris and in other cities
tore pictures Of Lenin and Stain
from walls in Communist centers
and searched for Arthur Ramette,
who. with Florimond Bonte, wrote
to Edouard Herriot. president of the
Chamber of Deputies, demanding q
parliamentary session to consider
peace.
Orders were issued for the arrest
OF Ramette and Bonte, both Com
munist members of the Chamber Of
Deputies, but Ramette had fed.
Ramette was president and Bonte
secretary general of the Workers
