WARSAW'S SURRENDER
TOLD BY MERCHANT

how Warsaw was "devoured" BY
German troops after its surrender
Sept. ~ reached here today.
1t was given by Polish busi.
ness man who asked that he be
referred to only as NIL" to avoid
reprisal. He said:
The Polish co m m n d
charged with the defense Of
Warsaw decided on Sept. 81 to
capitulate and from that day
TO Oct. I, when German troops
entered, n sinister silence fell
over the city more uncanny
than the dark Intervals dur
Ing the bombardment.
THE first German detachments
came In Red Cross ambulances.
Then came army kitchens followed
by troops. 1t was not the heroic
German army that fought before
Warsaw which entered the city.
The formations were fresh troops,
neatly dressed, carrying new flags.
THE first day the 'humanitar-
Ian invaders distributed bread to
the populace. This act of gener-
osity was for the German news
reels. They forced the wretched
people to smile and took many
pictures of this happy occasion.
Then the Germans got to work.
"They began by arresting
all priests, then seized scores
of hostages among the prlnci-
pal citizens. German soldiers
started n systematic looting Of
apartments, stealing every
thing Of value. Several days
later thousands Of these peo-
pie were ordered out of their
apartments to make room for
the army.
Homeless people with valises
In hand wandered about the streets
together in groups. FL
nally, in desperation they asked
German officers where they might
go and the response always came.
